For the first time since 1975-76, the Miracle year. Back when the Pistons, Bulls and Bucks were in the West, the Rockets were in the East, and the Spurs, Nuggets, Pacers and Nets were in the ABA.

Been a long time coming. A lot of really good Cavaliers teams came and went without winning this division. Some juggernaut was always in their way. First it was the Bad Boys, then MJ's Bulls, and recently the Pistons teams with Chauncey, Rip and Rasheed. Five 50-win teams with nary a division titleist among them. But this club has finally broken through.

May not seem like a big deal to you fans of teams that have actually won something, but it's a milestone for this franchise. :toast

They're definitely not playing their best basketball as they nearly lost to the lowly Clippers and Kings, but, to their credit, they staged amazing comebacks in each, and, managed to win both.

Congrats--Now beat those damn Celtics in the playoffs!

This thread isn't about the Hornets.

Congrats on the division title, it's not THE title but I still remember getting pissed that the Suns were #1 and the Lakers were behind the friggin' Clippers.

Teams are coming down the final stretch now, things are starting to heat up. Should be some great series this year.

division titles had more meaning when there were only 2 per conference. Fucking bobcats had to come along and ruin everything

I bet the parade route gets leaked tomorrow and the Cavs end up losing in the first round.

Absolutely. It'll join the 1975-76 Central Division Championship banner in the rafters at the Q. They should hang a banner for the 2003 Draft Lottery alongside them, but that probably won't happen.

Really? Cool. Enjoy them t-shirts that emblazoned with “2009 Central Division Champions”

As for the Lakers, They want the ones that say “NBA champs.” All the rest are simply garage sale items.
