I guess it would be good if someone got a little angry over the declining fortunes of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
One would assume that the catalyst of such -- spirit -- would be a player, or the owner, or one of the coaches. But it turns out that Byron Scott's wife Anita is front and center with a unique reason to get her husband to fire up and get a little verbal with the referees.
According to an article on ProBasketballTalk at nbcsports.com, Mrs. Scott gets a shopping spree from her husband of equal value to any fine he might incur from the league. In other words, if Scott gets hit with a $50K fine, it is a $50K spending spree for the Mrs.
Hey, whatever works, right? Some fire from Scott might turn the tables in a game or two along the way, and when the NBA takes a bite out of Scott's wallet, the coach's wife goes shopping.
What a bargain!
