ANOTHER BUZZER-BEATER???

Saturday, May 23rd, 2009

I played with LeBron in the Olympics and I’ve seen him do some crazy things, but that was the sickest of them all. I mean, that was a tough, tough shot. Turk played great defense, did all he could do really, and LeBron just made a heck of a shot.

He’s the MVP of the league, and that’s what he does best – make plays nobody thinks he can make.

What’s up with us losing all of these buzzer-beaters??? I mean, dang, Philly got us twice in the first round, Big Baby hit that crazy jumper from the wing against Boston and now this from LeBron??? I guess when you think about it, we won a couple of games at the end with Turk in Philly and Rashard here in Game 1. I thought Turk had done it for us again, running the clock down to one and hitting hit shot, but that was a tough way to lose.

Now, you have to watch that shot over and over again on the TV and there’s no getting away from it. But we’ve got to bounce back from this, and I know we will because we’ve done that all season.

We were almost up 2-0 on their home court, which would have been huge, but we just have to realize it’s all tied up now.

We’re going home and we know what we have to do to beat this team. I think Cleveland knows we ain’t no joke and we ain’t going away anytime soon. They know we’re going to keep scrapping and fighting and clawing, and we expect the same thing from them.

Now, we gotta take care of business back in Orlando. Everybody thought I was going to be all frustrated about not getting many shots Friday night, but I’m more upset about how bad we’re starting games. We’re giving up threes and dunks and we’re not running on offense. That just can’t keep happening, especially when we get home.

My man, Bron Bron, hurt us with that shot, but ya’ll know we’ll be back from that. We always bounce back whether it’s in the middle of games or after tough losses.

We’ll be at home now, and we’ll be there to win these next two games. We still think we have the talent and the team to win this series, and one loss – make that one shot – hasn’t changed our minds about that.

I’m out, ya’ll. Bring it for Game 3 cause we need ya’ll.
