i was wondering where would it be possible to get old cavs games ? Back in the old days i did not have a pc or cable, so missed most of his career. To buy or to download. There should be somekinda archive, right ? Or maybe you guys have ? For example i am very curious about that all star rookie game.

Never understood why you can't purchase old recordings of games on itunes or what not.

I say we all change our avatars to Z's jersey or something like that for the retirement. I'm going to.

Brown should be the emcee for the ceremony. Then he can forget to retire the jersey like he forgot to play Z when Z was set to break the record for games played. Fans would then revolt and run Brown out of town.

I wonder how slow it will take the jersey to make it's way up there ?

I remember that like it was yesterday. That was one of the most disrespectful things I've seen in Cavs history. Mike Brown "forgot" to play Z that night when he had played in every single game prior.

I still can't believe that happened.

Oh boy.

Just saw that. To people who hadn't it says Lebron might be coming to it. That would be great. Would love to see the reaction

 

[Huber.]

Anyone else worried about this happening only with Gilbert?

Ehh it wont be too bad. Once the wire is surgically repaired ans the jersey stops diving on the floor for no reason.

Lebron's attendance seems to be official:

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- How close are Zydrunas Ilgauskas and LeBron James?

So close that James is expected to be here this weekend when the Cavaliers retire Ilgauskas' No. 11 jersey on Saturday night. He will not have a speaking role in the ceremony, but wanted to be here for his friend. The Miami Heat do not play on Saturday and are at Chicago on Sunday.

"I talk to Z very often, probably once or twice a month,'' James told The Plain Dealer. "He meant everything to me. When you come in as a rookie you try to find a leader, that veteran, that guy who's been around to learn the ropes from. He taught me how to be a professional on and off the floor. That's something you cannot ever take for granted.

"He was everything to me.''

Zydrunas and James played together for seven seasons in Cleveland and one more in Miami.

I know this: It's Z's retirement celebration, and if he wants LeBron there and LeBron wants to be there, no one should stop it or be upset about it.

So fucking salty that I have to be out of town when this is happening.
