[…] Of course, LeBron James carried his own weight in this one, but the rest of the team did not. Ugh. Talk about a sequence: 11:41 Larry Hughes makes 26-foot three point jumper 11:00 Larry Hughes […]

God i love this website. “The weird thing? I’m not making any of this up.”
Laura Hughes is my least favorite cleveland sports player of all time. Dudes been layin brick since 2004.

S o far we have:
Larry Hughes, Kitten Killer
Larry Fantana, Action News Reporter
Laura Hughes, Bricklayer
Larry “Should be a cable guy”

I always knew that Larry Hughes sucked…but this website makes it all the more real to me. Now I know why he sucks.

One thing you have to admit… even when Larry’s jumper is off, which is to say 75-80 games a year, he still looks like a dreamboat. Have you seen that smile in HD… makes a man melt.

Hey you guys are such losers! Can anybody tell me what the Cav’s record with Larry Hughes starting at the point? That’s what I thought! He was a big part of them making it to the the championships last year. Since he has been starting again this year what is there record?

Hey Bill,
Do you know how much Larry Hughes complained about playing point guard. A whole hell of alot, he insisted on playing the 2 guard despite the fact that it kills our team. This is because he is selfish and cares more about how he performs individualy than how the team performs. And the only reason we win more games with larry at point is because he’s not jacking up as many shots, hard to believe, as he does when playing the 2 guard.

Bill - I cant believe you are defending Laura. Yeah that cavs are winnign with larry starting. But can you picture what it would be like if we got a player in there that shoot around just 40%?
If Laura is so good why does Mike Brown bench him at the end of the 3rd Qrt for the last 2 games. Its time to win the game and larry has to leave to get the “W”.

Bill,
Let us get one thing straight the Cavs won despite of and NOT because of Larry. He leads the league in stupid shots taken. Did you know that a lot of times he even led the Cavs in shots taken on a per minute basis? Eric Snow is bricklayer himself but at least he does not ake shots he can’t make. Is it any wonder why Larry can’t even average a decent number of assists despite being the starting point guard? Larry is also the most blocked player in the league -I mean I’ve never seen a player constantly blocked on weak drive that resulted in fastbreak on the other end. This has got stop-let him rot in the bench. Release him at firesale price before he poisons the entire team beyond redemption.

I saw Larry coming out of Hunigton Bank Monday morning…
On his way out, He was singing to himself “I got money in the bank, my shots go clank. I got money in the bank, my shots go clank.”
That was amusing enough by itself, then before getting into his rolling tatoo parlor. He crumpled up his receipt, turned and went to throw it in the garbage…only to have it bounce off the front of the rim and fall to the ground.
So not only is Larry an overpaid waste of a jersey, he is a litterbug too.

He may start the games, but he sure as shit doesn’t finish them.
In the game against Seattle, did you guys see when he had 2 turnovers within 3 seconds of each other? Classic Hughes.

The amazing thing is that, in the midst of one of the all-time spectacular shooting slumps, took only two shots inside the paint — and they were within three minutes of each other!
As the mistake by the lake guys have pointed out, if he’s going to take a jump shot, it better darn well be behind the three-point line. At least then there’s a chance at a payoff. Instead, he’s constantly taking these pull-up jumpers one step inside the arc. Drive, dude!

LOL… larry makes about as many shots as the number of times Brian Fantana has gotten laid. haha.

The 2nd most necessary website ever created for Cleveland sports, right behind any site dedicated to bring back Michael Reghi.
Regardless, this is hilarious and dead on, keep up the good work.

You listed Larry missing the same shot twice in the first quarter:
8:08 Larry Hughes misses 19-foot jumper
8:08 Larry Hughes misses 19-foot jumper

Larry hughes needs to be traded. He plays like Gerald Wilkins us e too. He’s a joke he doesnt have the heart of a winner. He doesnt play through injuries, even simple things like a pimple he sucks. Bye larry no contract extention.
