When you pin the ball on the glass while blocking a shot isn't it goaltending?

No, it's not. If it's simultaneous, it's a clean block. 

Now if Iguadola lays it up and it's coming off the glass and Lebron touches it, then yes it's goaltending.

Actually that's not totally true. You're right that he can't touch it once it hits the glass, but if it's truly simultaneous (ball, hand, and backboard), it's called a trap and it's also considered goaltending. The reason this isn't goal tending is if you watch it full-speed and from different angles, you can see that he slaps the ball against the glass, then his momentum carries him into the ball again, but his hand slides across it. It's close, but he never actually traps the ball against the backboard.

Regardless of how we feel about Cleveland in football and baseball, you must hand it to them that they went from firing their coach after signing James, then winning the NBA championship after falling behind 3 games to 1.  I'm always cheering for the underdogs and this year they seemed to pull out an amazing comeback.  The Ravens will be the underdogs this season after that horrible record last year.  Let's hope that our underdogs can make the playoffs and prove the critics wrong, too.  There's no need to fear, Underdog is here!

Now that Cleveland's drought is over, the next drought city on the list (+2 major sports teams) is Cincinnati (would be Milwaukee but we'll give 'em the Packers). Twenty-six years since they've brought a championship home.

All eyes are on you, Bungals.

A Wizard fan so my freak out is on the opposite side.

I was hoping Cleveland would lose.. Never got tired of saying the Bengals had a better chance of having a winning record in baseball than the Indians do.

There you go Cleveland, have a bone!
Don't expect anything like this out of your football team.
Odds of the Browns winning Superbowl 51 is 200 to 1..!

Cleveland area code is 216 and it's 2016 so far we have a UFC Champion, our Lil hockey team just won their title, and now the Cavs doing their thing, And The Indians in 1st place so far! The Ravens whom I LOVE ALOT just better handle their business when playing The Browns because we don't know how this year is gonna finish! And RG3 is in our division now! #morethanalilbone
