Why do the Cavs and wiz hate each other so much?

[kenneth9265]

Where did all of the ill feelings started from in the first place?

1. The sense of entitlement Lebron has.
2. How the rules have different meanings for Lebron.
3. Lebron's whining to the refs despite getting the benefit of the doubt 99% of the time.
4. The pug face he makes.
5. The fact that he throws parties in our city when he comes to Washington.
7. The incessant media attention he gets.
8. His arrogance - any one else see that Lebron said he's his own "fave 5" favorite athletes during some halftime segment!?! Also the 60 minutes interview when he said, "I'm all real baby, 6 foot 9 280 lbs" with a smirk that another poster said, "makes him look like he jerks off to himself in the mirror".
9. The douche bag-ness.
10. The fact that he's the only player in NBA history who has the ability to get calls changed for him - I remember in the playoffs once they changed a charging call on Lebron to a blocking call after his hissy fit he had while on the floor.
11. The traveling game winners.
12. The fact that they've beat us the last three years.

2006- Lebron James Non-Traveling call. Series could have went to us.(4 game-2)
2007-Cavs win series again(Wizards unhealthy)-4 game sweep
2008-Cavs win series yet again(Wizards again without Arenas)-We still take them 6 games.
2009-Wizards yet again unhealthy-Lebron gets another season without having to deal with the Real Wizards team.
2010-Cavs will meet us somewhere along the line= Cavs lose against the MVP(Arenas).

LBJ and his Cavs have gotten alot better yes. Mostly because of MO Will.
Cavs won that first series because of the refs bad calls.
Cavs sweep on 07, then face a unhealthy Det team and make the finals.
Cavs WILL LOSE before the Finals!!!

LBJ is great I can honestly say. HE CRYS WAY WAY MORE THAN ANYONE IVE EVER SEEN BEING AS GOOD AS HE IS! He gets calls that are only for the greats. Guess he is there already.

Yes the fingernail biting, but other than being good and the Wizards being hurt and not really facing them full strength......

HE needs to win a championship first....

Wizards win one before that.....anyone disagree????

14. The fact that LeBron is executive producing a documentary on himself. Ugh. Really?
15. That both of the girls who got kicked out of Destiny's Child by Beyonce ended up dating DeShawn Stevenson.
16. That LeBron talked trash about DeShawn to Drew Gooden, DeShawn's good friend and beard-brother, only to have it get back to to DeShawn.
17. Damon Jones.

Eh, do a search of the forums. You should be able to find more. But this is a fairly well-layered rivalry. I look forward to a healthy Wizards team rekindling the feud next year.

[MJG]

Because we've played each other so many times the past four years, and most of those games were pretty close. Simple as that really.

If the Wizards didn't play the Cavs somewhat tough they wouldn't hate Washington. They are concerned about physical play. I think the hate towards Cleveland comes from Washington fans and players feeling they've taken the worst of it from the offiicials, and that Lebron's owned the refs in the past. That's changing IMO.

That Christmas Day game was so poorly officiated that IMO the refs must have been reprimanded or forced to call subsequent games more evenly. The last couple meetings were generally well officiated. The refs actually called traveling on the crab dribble and they've not allowed Lebron to get away with nearly as much as he did prior to that game on Christmas.

Honestly, I think the rivalry is healthy and I don't hate the Cavs or Lebron like most here seem to. Yep, he's great. Yep, he seems to have a sense of entitlement. But I can see he has some respect or fear of the Wizards no matter how he acts. He doesn't like playing Washington and that's enough for me. For the record I respect Mike Brown and the job Danny Ferry has done assembling that team. If they win it all I won't hate on them. What I will do is look forward to next season when the Wizards are healthy because I truly believe they will beat the Cavs if they face them in the playoffs next season.

Mostly because we've lost a LOT of games at the buzzer, or at least those two years. Some of it was because we can't defend the three, but the ones we lost to LeBron was because he traveled and it didn't get called. Most important game of the year, we get screwed because LeBron is untouchable.

We know we can beat the Cavs when healthy. And to see them succeed is really annoying.

Having said that, I was watching the Cavs play Detroit and LeBron dove into the stands after a loose ball and ended up in some woman's lap on the first row. He asked if she was okay and then gave her a big smooch on the cheek. Hilarious! He does have fun.

lol, we're gonna need a support group or something around here if lebitch & the crabs win the title this year.

seriously tho, the whole world knows he's a great player, what's baffling is why he feels the need to resort to immature and unsportsmanlike tactics to gain advantage. until that changes he'll be a bitch in my book.. with or without a title.

The Wizards and their fans hate the Cavs. The Cavs and their fans don't care. We won three straight years. We've enjoyed success. Your "healthy" Wizards lost to the Cavs in 6 when his teammates were beyond awful. Remember when Deshawn "couldn't feel his face" down 18 in Game 2 last year? You guys are complaining about Lebron being cocky? Lebron might go down as the best player of all time. Deshawn is a child molester http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basketball/nba/news/2001/06/20/stevenson_admission_ap/ who also happens to be awful at basketball. Stop talking about the Cavs. You are beneath us and you always will be. Good luck in the lottery. Maybe you'll win it. If not this year, then maybe next. Then the next. And the next. And the next. Because Gil is only getting younger and healthier. Same with Antawn.

Yeah on second thought I do hate you guys.

When people treat one person/team as a favorite and the other person/team as a stepchild, you will get hostility directed toward the favored. The stepchild will grow to want to "f__k the favorite child up!"

Then one team beats up on a defenseless, injured team twice and pretends like both teams were 100% healthy. If this was boxing, the wizards would have postponed the fight.
