What was once a decent rivalry (for 4 years) with many intense playoff matchups has turned into holy ineptitude. Remember when Agent Zero and Lebron traded knockout punches in that memorable playoff series just 5 years ago? How about Deshawn Stevenson inexplicably calling Lebron overrated, followed by Lebron calling Deshawn "Soulja Boy"? That must feel like a lifetime ago for Wizards and Cavs fans. The Wiz have had a makeover since then, and the Cavs still have all the shitty players they had before, only Lebron-less. The Wiz have lost all 25 games away from the phone booth this season, while Cleveland is riding their own impressive 26 game overall losing streak. It all adds up for a potential heavyweight matchup on Sunday night, unless Cleveland breaks our hearts with a victory tonight against the Clippers. Of course, of all the bad luck in the world, the Clippers may take the cake. It wouldn't be surprising to see Cleveland get it tonight, but for our sake lets hope they crap in their pants again while looking ahead to the mighty Wiz. Sunday's potential matchup is a win-win for us at Pessimistic in the District, in terms of Monday morning blogging. We will be hoping for a Wiz win, so we can proceed with more jabs to take at Dan Gilbert and the Cavs, but a Wiz loss would make our writing even easier Monday. If the Wiz lose to the Cavs on Sunday, they will be in their own league of futility.
Although unlikely, should this game really be nationally televised? Lebron thinks so. In fact, this may be the first time I have ever agreed with Lebron. Is the NBA happy about this potential matchup? Probably not. But hey, might as well embrace it. To their surprise they might actually get good ratings.
