    Don't forget Cavs win both game in the season. Bowen will have hard time guarding LBJ.

    Too bad their x factor (gibson) is exposed too early

    Hmmmmm... Very interesting... Lets see.. Spurs is very veteran when it comes of NBA finals also coaching staffs..... They've been there done that... Many times.. Cavaliers... Hmmm.. Very young players.. 1st time in the Finals... If spurs pressure King James the whole team is paralize... Remember game 1 and 2 with detroit.. King James recieve his lowest points in the season not just a regular season.. It's playoffs season baby!... So 4-0 why not? Possible... But I wish both teams will give people what they deserve to witness.. Thanks. :D..

    The Cavs have already made history by beating the Pistons. Only two other basketball teams have won a series that started off with a 2-0 defecit.

    As for the finals, I say Spurs in 4 or 5.

    If the cavs can get the series to six games in a losing effort i would consider it a championship...they are such a longshot vs. duncan and his amazing spurs

    who can guard duncan on the cavs? dont get me wrong thoguh, i'm rooting for king james

    It's not about Duncan.. It's all about the spurs team... They are much experience in finals...

    I think it'll play out much like the Utah series against the Spurs. Spurs will dominate for most if not all of the series. They are vastly more experienced and probably more talent and deeper bench??

    I am not at all familiar with Cle though in all fairness.

    Where it begins, ends, and is in the middle of what the Spurs do is their defense.

    But since I am unfamiliar with Cle, I have no idea how they match up.

    Conversely on the other side of the ball, if Cle can frustrate TP&TD they might have a shot, especially if the big shooters go cold from beyond the arc.

    Bad news for Cle is that SA has been on fire since the all-star break really and haven't shown much weakness in the playoffs either.

    Spurs are too much for the Cavs. Although I can see the Cavs winning a game.

    Criticism on LeBron in Game 1 and 2 versus Detroit makes him a real monster on Game 3,4,5,6.. So I hope King James learn a lot from that game and keep the monster in him in this coming Finals then that would be the ground for cleveland to win and win in Finals. I hope.

    Lebron will be unstoppable in the finals. The only thing cavs need is to score other players. Iglauskas, gooden, huges, gibson needs to score. Varejao and snow must provide solid defense to upset the spurs...:D

    I think if anyone could stop him it would be the Spurs. But I think you're accurate, the Cavs will need other scorers and lots of them.

    the de facto finals was actually SAS/PHO ;)

    You have Bruce "Lee" Bowen on him and Tim Duncan is having a block party (avg 3.3 a game). It won't be easy. and beside Snow, no one on Cavs reach the final before

    lol! Bruce "Lee" can get after it! He sure makes it tough no doubt.

    The best thing(s) about SA, they can score with the best of them and they can play Defense...probably the best D in the league.

    They kept it tight for most of the game, mid to end of the 3rd quarter they got blasted but they came back and still had a shot until maybe the last 3rd of the 4th.

    I think they'll figure some things out, make adjustments, but still not going to be enough to unseat SA.

    Spurs outside shooters had a crap night but the big 3 came through. What was the stat, Parker, Duncan, &G 64 pts and the Cavs as a team had 72 or something like that!


    Gibson was impressive though!
