Ugh, Lebron...

Well, it will be tough now, only 8 teams have come back from 3-1, however 2 of those teams were in the last 6 years, pistons v magic and suns v lakers. I can easily see Lebron joining that group, it will be tough though.

I REALLY wanted to see Lebron/Carmelo too!
 
I think its over... but you never know. These games have been really close and Cleveland could easily steal one.
 
the games are too close to really call this over. I hope they at least go on a few more games because I've had a great time watching the series.
 
I really do want to say that. But when Lebron James has to put up 40 points and play the entire game basically to come close to winning then there is something wrong with that picture. He will run out of energy eventually you know. I just don't think the Cavs can stop the magic.
 
I agree, I don't think the Cav's can stop the magic, but it's been such a magical season, I don't see why it can't continue. After all, why would they want to stop the magic? That's why I don't think Orlando has this series locked down.
 
Is this the Cavs of 09 or of 07? ._.
Also Lakers should win tomorrow and take the series, also stop loading to the side of carmelo when he is having a bad day!
 
If the Cavs drop the series I think that LBJ should leave Cleveland.

This supporting cast is lacking, he has to drop 40 a night and even that isn't a guaranteed win.

The One Man Show in Cleveland needs to pack up and ship out.

If he get continously get this far with this team imagine what he could do with a legit team...
 
Dwight played as if he should have gotten the MVP award today.

10-16 FG shooting, 27 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 blocks. Good shit, gettin him the ball more.

SUPERMAN IS IN THE BUILDING.
 
Totally off point but I wonder how close Ainge was to getting replaced as head of Boston operations before they won the championship last year?
 
Dwight's stats were decent, but there were two things that really impressed me today about him.

a) His free throws have improved alot
b) The fact that he actually stepped up in crunch time as opposed to deferring to Lewis/Turk with 10 points in overtime (although tbh Lewis came up huge at the end, heh).

Just goes to show how under hyped Orlando is, likely because Jameer Nelson went down. People wont be counting them out any more, and Dwight can tear up any inside defenses left in the playoffs.


Ok, my last prediction was off, so ill put some chik-fil-a on a tight Nuggets win in LA. Its gonna be close, Billups is in foul trouble atm, and Kobe is still going crazy, but its possible.

Ill say Orlando in 7 as well.
 
Solid win for the Lakers. I still want to say Denver in 7 just because they have grown on me through the playoffs :D.

I felt like that blocking foul on Nene was what cost Denver. Seriously... Gasol runs into him and hits him with his elbow, knocks him down and Nene is called for a foul. The Nuggets were building momentum up until that point...
 
Lakers are back...no more effort questions. Odom came out firing and aggressive, makes them unstoppable when he plays well.

Rashard Lewis is a freak, plain and simple. He's been the man during the series, and I wouldn't be surprised if he hits the game-winning shot again in game 5 or 6 (not going 7, Orlando wins either way).
 
It seems Cleveland is holding their lead decently so far. Let's hope they keep it and head back to Orlando 3-2.

I'm still confident the Cavs can pull this out.
 
Lakers and Cavs will both win in 7

And I predict an orgasmic series between LA and Cleveland that will result in a double overtime Cleveland game 7 win.
