Bulls big man and Rae Dawn Chong permutation Joakim Noah ran his mouth about how “Cleveland really sucks” is as his team prepared to take on the Cavaliers for Game 2 of their first-round playoff series. Seriously, that was the worst thing he said about the city, and everyone made a big deal about it. That wasn’t any less obvious than saying “Bloggers are fat,” or “Prostitutes aren’t really people.” Anyway, the Bulls got owned last night; LeBron scored 40 and the Cavs won 112-102, taking a 2-0 lead in the series.
“They were telling me I can’t make jump shots,” James said. “They asked me to shoot a jumper so I did that. Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.”
James scored 40 points—15 in a tour-de-force fourth quarter—as the Cavaliers, fueled by a rabid home crowd that booed every move by Noah…
To his credit [I guess], Noah didn’t back down from his comments. 
“You like it? You think Cleveland’s cool? I never heard anybody say I’m going to Cleveland on vacation. What’s so good about Cleveland?” –Y! Sports.
My wife’s family took a vacation in Cleveland once. They had their car stolen. But seriously, I’m from Ohio and I wouldn’t go anywhere past Berea toward that hole. Over 1,000 people move out of Cleveland every month. I assume that number is so low because there are only so many Uhauls to go around.
Also, Utah beat Denver last night. Their series is tied at 1-1. Four games are scheduled for tonight, and I guess those guys will go out and get sandwiches afterward, because basketball is hard.

“Over 1,000 people move out of Cleveland every month”
Cleveland? More like, Leaveland! Amirite?
/been to Cleveland once
I didn’t know you were from ohio, punter. I was born and raised in Warren. Until the factory/sweatshop/mine/foundry closed. Then I was sold into white slavery on the east coast, destined to spend the rest of my days mixing gin martinis and cleaning up crime scenes.
One of those things is true.
YEAAAAAA 4/20 DUUUUUDE!!!!
Sure, Punte, we’d all like to drop everything and flee to the Cleve, but we don’t. You know why? Because we have responsibilities.
@DC, you sure seem excited about the anniversary of Hitler’s birthday.
noah is fully qualified to discuss things that are ugly
also bone/thugs,the c.steamer, “major league”, and the rock and roll hof are from cleveland so it’s not all bad.
Cleveland has also given us Carl Monday and “You jackin’ it?”. And for that we are thankful.
Jack Gable: What are you doing here? I sent you to Cleveland.
Jack Gates: I should kill you for that alone.
You’re damn straight UU.

+1 Upstate; I forgot about “You jackin’ it?”.
If the whole world moved to their favorite vacation spots then the whole world would live in Hawaii, Italy, and Cleveland.
I thought that was Bizzy Bone
New drink, named it after Chong’s daughter:
Triple shot of Yak with a chaser of Bong Water.
I think I fucked that guy back in the ’80′s.
I really want to hate Noah, but with comments like that it’s getting more and more difficult to disklike him. I hope the Bulls can steal a game or two just so I can hear more commentary from him.
NOAH IS RIGHT! dont blame him for speaking the truth… does anyone go on vacation to Cleveland? and if Lebron wasnt there they wouldnt be shit and still arent cuz there not even gonna make it to the FINALS!!
