What a game by Lebron...that step back 3 he hit in 2OT with the Cavs down three was filthy...but then, he's been making those shots the past three games

Here's hoping the Cavs can close it out and then take the Spurs out in the Finals...I'm really starting to take a shine to Lebron....just what the NBA needs right now...a HUMBLE superstar..

There's not a single team in the East that could win more than 1 game against the top 3 or 4 teams in the West. Seriously. The Cavs/Pistons series is basically a battle to see who the 4th best team in basketball is.

Rick Mahorn and Bill Laimbeer had to be snarling at their TV sets. The old Motor City Bad Boys would have never allowed anyone to run wild like that.

Dennis Rodman will be ticked too-- when the signal reaches his home planet.

The referees in this series have been pretty horrible. But I will admit, they're calling horrible games both ways for the most part.

Another thing that's annoying me this morning...WHY SHOOT A 3 WHEN YOU HAVE A 9 SECOND POSSESSION AT THE END OF THE GAME! GET THAT BALL DOWN LOW! CHAUNCEY HAD NO BUSINESS TAKING A 3!

*ehem*

That is all.

I still think Detroit wins the series. Detroit is controlling virtually every part of every game......... their shots just aren't falling . . . yet.

LeBron went all MJ last night. 29 of the Cavs last 30 points? That is taking over.

When you are by far the best player on the floor and the other team shows no signs of being able to stop you, you take over.

That and he probably doesn't trust his teammates; nor should he.

Well, Ilgauskas, Gooden and Gibson all fouled out.

Pavlovic and Varejao were missing shots in front of the net. When four of your best players are sitting on the bench, the only thing you can do is do it by yourself.

Radio, I hope the Bad Boys were upset. Fans of the Association should be upset that they tried to set the game back 1,000 years where it stopped being an athletic competition and turned into WrestleMania at the Palace.

It's OVA!

Big performance by the rookie - that's just what LeBron needed after carrying the team the last 3 games.

As I was telling my brother this afternoon, this will make the hype leading up to game 1 more interesting, but I fear it'll all be for nothing once SA steamrolls the Cavs in game 1.
