Lebron vs Stevenson
Can anyone elaborate on their feud?

Hadn't seen it before tonight. Maybe that's because usually we see the local telecast which avoids controversy at all cost... good, wholesome family entertainment, I guess.
More probably it's that Stevenson understands the magnitude of winning winnable games in this stretch. The Wiz have some serious work to do to stay ahead of the Sixers while trying to reintegrate Butler, then Arenas.
Stevenson, I think, realizes that you need to knock Le Whine off his game mentally. Get him to press a bit and he's not quite so dangerous. Whatever he did, it seemed to work (that and the fact that Le Travel played 40+ minutes in two back to backs).

Favorite moment of the game. TNT's sounds of the game. Replay of amon ones knocking down a 3 and Jamison commenting "he's a little bit too old for that mohawk".

–But the stuff with LeBron was more personal. He told Michael Lee of the Washington Post after the game that LeBron was talking trash to him and that he wanted to get under LeBron’s skin. Then he said: “LeBron is overrated” and made sure the quote was attributed to him. When LeBron is tired after playing 90 minutes in 24 hours, he isn’t the same player, I agree. Stevenson did a good job in the fourth, so props to him. Yet poking one of the best players in the league just isn’t a good idea. LeBron has proven to be tough on people who challenge him. Especially considering Stevenson shot 19 percent in the playoff series with the Cavs last season. Too bad the Cavs don’t play the Wizards again this year, it would be interesting to see LeBron’s response.

Nah, it's all about the Cavs' cocky attitude. They think they're the ****. They get a cake walk to the ECF and were rightly put in their place by San Antonio. Queen James is an arrogant jerk-off and it's rubbed off on the fans. It's funny to see how riled up they get when D-Shawn called their wonder boy overrated. Now they're saying they own us....WTF???? They beat us in a close series two years ago...nothing else. Oh yeah the sweep. They're so proud of "THE SWEEP". Guess that's why they think they own us.
