Denver will beat Lakers in 7.
Cleveland will beat Orlando in 5.

Cleveland will beat Denver in 6.

Cavs are going balls to the wall.

Cleveland over Orlando 4-2

LA over Denver 4-3


I`m picking Cleveland to win it all and pray that it goes 7 games. 7 games with Kobe and LeBron head to head will finally shut everyone up, and the world will know that Lebron James is the most complete basketball player to ever play the game.


My wife can`t stand basketball. She saw the play/s in game 1 where James goes over Hedo Turkoglu for a monster dunk that brought the crowd to their feet. He runs back on defense on the next play for a solid block on Dwight Howard. Recovers the rebounded shot taking it back down court to pull up for a perfect 3 point shot. 5 points, 1 blocked shot, and a rebound in 12 seconds. She was hooked only to see them lose. But in the Cavs lose I found a new basketball watching buddy who I don`t have to kick out after the game....lol

I saw some adjustments made in the 4th period of game 2 that I think will ensure a Cleveland win. We focused on Howard. He makes a huge impact, but is no a high scoring player. We keep him in check it's game over. We let him off the hook in game 1 allowing him to score 30 points. We took away his points in game 2, but kept giving up the rebounds. We keep BigZ inside and not allow Howard to get the rebounds we are in there. If I was coaching I'd let Howard take every outside shot he wanted to with a hand in his face. But BigZ needs to stay at the basket. By coming out to cover Howard he opens the lane and as we saw gets shaked and baked by Howard for easy dunks.

4th period BigZ stayed under the basket and Howard missed two 12 footers. BigZ fouled him in the fourth for him to miss 1 of 2 free throws. If we make Howard shoot from outside, protect the basket, and make him score from the freethrow line we are a 4-2 winner winner chicken dinner.

I dont think orlando will let the cav's get such a big lead at home either. Dwight Howard, Turkoglu, and lewis are gonna step up big at home. Bet they all get over 20 and Pietrus will get more playing time and a few good 3's off in game 3 too. Have a feeling good ol' Mo Williams is going to "fizzle" in orlando too .

[Momba]

Cavs game 3. . .

All I can say is that I am physically sick at how terrible they played at both ends. Even Lebron missing so many jump shots.

The biggest failure of the night was not sending West and LeBron down the middle at Howard when he came back in with 3 fouls. There is no way that hot head shoulda been in the game with 2 minutes left. His position shoulda been attacked all night long.

And Varejao. Did his hair cause his 3rd foul.

cavs all day every day

Same thing for game 4. Turkoglu will do better though.

Refs on lebrons nuts and magic still pwning.

[Sausage]

I deuce out for the weekend and Cavs get slaughtered lol

[Autek]

I'd like to see LeBron and Kobe in the finals, but man, the Magic are playing tough.

[Momba]

I would have too. I'm just hoping now that Lebron gets traded. He deserves a better team. Where ever he goes I go.

... already give up on them?.. they could win 3 in a row... /grin...

[Apocalypto]

kinda figured the cavs would win tonight .. .orlando gonna finish it in game 6

[Isolated]

kinda looking forward to dwight howard dunking on gasol/bynum in the finals, assuming the NBA ref's aren't being pressured by stern for kobe to win the finals

[ice_cold]

cavs let me down, ohio person, we never win nuts

[deadman]

And it's down to the Lakers and the Magic.. GO LAKERS!

[Throwback]

LOL at Tony not commenting all this time just to hop onto a team when it's decided, granted lots of people are jumping on Orlando and rightfully so, but to say go anyone at this point is basically saying you don't follow anyone in particular, that you know of the Lakers and that they used to be good/are good, and that you want to look cool and be a Fan. Someone send Tony a throwback jersey, jerry west or james worthy, so that he can claim to have been a fan all this time.

[shomer]

he hasn't had internet for awhile due to moving..just recently got it back so that's why he "waited" to comment until the finals

[Isolated]

chances are he is a sixers fan so regardless of whether he had internet on.. he's still a bandwagoner


go suns

[Throwback]

Lol i have made a career ripping Tony, sorry.


Note: it is not a lucrative career, you only make anything if the other person is famous.

[deadman]

I find the attempts hilarious Corey, and thanks for the help Jay. Yeah, i hate all pa teams besides penn state and the penguins and am indeed and always have been a Lakers fan.

[Apocalypto]

Think the lakers will give the magic hell. Ready to see. Im still rooting for the magic, but im less sure about them winning this series than against the cavs. Kobe knows how to win. End of story. Anyways, i think its going to be 6-7 game series, and the magic will have to play heads up ball at all time's to win the series.

Anyways, my "prediction" is Orlando in 7.

[Sausage]

Don't think I could've been any more wrong rofl

Lakers sure shut a lot of people up. Kudos

[tehbirr]

finals gonna be Lakers VS Celtics with Lakers taking it in 6games REPEAT BABY
