First, I want to thank all everyone on the board. This has been a hell of a season.

I'm not a negative person, I'm always trying to look at the bright side of things.

This has been a hellva road for the Cavs this season. A season I will never forget. Lebron James, best player in the league, made his mark as being the next Jordan. Mo Williams arrived and added that guy, that guy we were missing for so many years. Brons robin.Then Delonte showin up big in so many ways. The baller, the hustla. He plays like he was playing on the streets. Z, faced some tough times dealin with injuries but was always there to make the 15-footer. Andy, geez the Wild Thing played fantastic. His best season yet. The guys on the bench havin a ball, raining threes and rock hard on defense. The celebrations, lighting the fire, hitting homeruns, photo ops, wally doing the YMCA, and so much more. The coaches coming up with great defense and thankfully a more productive offense.

After winning 66 games and being 39-2 at home we headed into the playoffs on a mission. A mission to win it all. We blew through the division rival Pistons. Damn, that felt good. We headed to Atlanta with our heads high. Check. We made that team look a lottery team, a team that didnt deserve to be there. So we leave with confidence. The confidence that we could get back to the Finals. The confidence that no one could beat us, no one could stop the King and no one could get past our defense. And then we face the Magic.

Eight days of rest and anxious to play some basketball the Cavs were ready to complete another sweep. Only did we know what was in store for us. First game came out rusty and lost at home. How could we lose at home? Well, this is Cleveland. Game 2 comes we have to head into Orlando with the series tied. O shit were losing again, but wait we have the King. 1.0 on the shot clock Lebron James pulls up for three. Yep, it went in. The Q shakes and Cleveland is rockin. The Shot has been takin back. Everything has to be alright, but this is Cleveland. Two huge games we have to win in Orlando. Damn, we lost both. Were down 3-1 and its know win or go home. Everything looks great we have a 22 point lead but only for it to disappear. Finally Bron gets help. Mo helps us deliver the win. The mission is picked up, but wait this is Cleveland.

*Sighs* were ready for Game 6. We have to force it to game seven. Remember its win or go home. I dont really want to write much more about this game. My heart is basically broken. As the Magic prepare to win I think to myself, damn this is really is Cleveland.

It seems so hard, so hard to win. Were always so close yet so far. It doesnt make sense. My dream growin up was to see one of my teams raise that trophy and see that parade down Euclid Ave. My dream now is the same. My dream is the dream of everyone across Cleveland. When will it stop. When will the heartbreak stop?

Theres always next year, but wait this is Cleveland.

O and **** that little SI bastard that wrote that article on Cleveland. Lil mother****er.
