For Your Consideration: Cavs/Magic Tonight

Give us the truth.

There are a couple of things we want to point out about tonight's game between the Cavs and the Magic (8pm EST on ESPN). If you like watching really good basketball you'll enjoy it. (Tim Legler said this about Cavs a couple of days ago: "They're playing near perfect ball ... There is nothing negative you can say about them.") What we want to point out is that we've got a couple of items that may (no promises) enhance your viewing experience. For instance, do you know off the top of your head what Dwight Howard's three favorite dunks of all time are? That'd be a good thing to be able to pull out tonight when Dwight throws a cheeseburger down on Igauskas. Watch this and you'll know.

Speaking of Superman, the guy can flat out dress. He should like be on the cover of a magazine talking about fashion. Oh wait, look what we found. And speaking of fashion in the NBA, those guys are easily the best dressed athletes in major sports (excluding hockey players). Someone should make a web video about that too. Wow.

Another quick fact: Do you know where to find the most opinionated barbershop in the world? At a barbershop in Cleveland. Sometimes we like to go into barbershops and just pretend like we're going to get a cut so we can hear what everyone's talking about. With this video you don't have to. (BTW: For our money, Chris Broussard is the best thing going out there. And we're not just saying that because we feel obligated.) When you're done with that video, you should watch this video about a couple other die-hard fans in Cleveland. LeBron and company are really rejuvenating that city. Even if the Cavs blow it against the Celtics in the playoffs the fans should be proud of getting to be apart of some of the best basketball ever played. Also, even if you're not a Cavs fans you should secretly root for them because they're the only team in pro sports (maybe all sports) with that name. The Cavaliers. Sounds like the name of a 50's motown group.

Anyway, hope this was worth it. We'll see you tonight at tip off (Hook and Ladder, corner of the bar).
