It's Official Orlando's in the NBA Finals
I haven't seen nothing from Cleveland in this series that has shown me that they can win it. Yes they did have good starts in game 1 and 2 with double digit leads, but the NBA is a 48 minute game as Denver found out twice. Orlando just seems to get better by the game, while the Cav's entire supporting cast looks clueless and scared to take a shot.

Not to mention if you make James take to many outside jumpers he struggles. This was one of his poorer performances and only looked as good as the others thanks to his actual decent FT percentage for a change. Except when they actually mattered and he of coursed choked like usual.Comment -
Unless Lebron can beat the Magic 1 on 5 this series is over. Everyone else on this team are scrubs, especially Mo Williams. He can't hit water if he was on the titanic. Plus he is a defensive liability. Orlando is driving on him every trip and it causes huge matchup problems as they can kick out for wide open shots or pound it to Howard when a big collapses.
Cleveland = 1 superstar and all role players. When last has a team won a title with only 1 star? I'm still trying to figure out who on this team could start on another NBA team. Z? Mo? DWest? Andy V? I don't think any of them could start anywhere else but Cleveland.Comment -
Just because Cleveland is losing to a great team in Orlando it doesn't mean everyone around Lebron all of a sudden sucks. Sure they are not doing good this series, but there is a lot reasons for that including Orlando's match up problems and defense.
D-West and Mo can start for my beloved Raptors btw, trust me, those four can find starting positions (or at least play heavy minutes) on numerous teams.Comment -
The other thing about the Cav's, I don't think they got one player on the Bench that will come out and bring that unexpected offensive energy.
The Nuggets has Kleiza and Smith, Orlando has Pietrieus, while the Lakers has Odom and Farmar.Comment -
arent you the same guy frostno who said denver will win in 6- the cavs arent done yet but denver is lolComment -
In my opinion this series is not over. Whomever wins game six will win the series. This is under the assumption that it will be 3-2 Orlando going into game six.

listen i dont know how old you are but i have been a yankee and laker and bears and flyers fan since 1984- and have never switched teams- im loyal as can be so dont question that again. I support my teams through thick and thin. by the way thxs for cutler. oh and 24 hours from now the lakers will be winning 3-1 guaranteedComment -
Orlando has too many weapons against James alone. Hedo, Lewis, and Howard are too much for the so-called king. When you think about it, during the regular season, Lakers swept Cavaliers 2 games straight but Orlando swept Lakers 2 games straight. That should somewhat makes Orlando a superior team.Comment -
so now this is a pissing contest about how much money you can win?
i think there are plenty of posters here that have thrown around more than $2750 so you're not going to win that one.
and admitting to winnings on sports wagering on a public forum is kind of foolish unless you want the irs on your back...Comment -
or should i say the canadian tax authorities, sorry just noticed you're from toronto laker boy.Comment -
any thread that claims a series is "official" when it is 2-1 and the road team is a pick em in game 4 is inherently ridiculous though.
Comment -
not yet definite but cavs is in hot waters since game 2. still no help for LBJ. so what happened to the defense. if they played like that that in the reg season. id pick sacramento to win over them. they are absolutely clueless and leaving one guy open. they should have lost by 15+Comment -
.....
Its not a best of 3 series gentlemen.....first one to 4 wins....anything can happen, yes Orlando is in the drivers seat and they have some tough matchups for the Cavs....but if Williams and West start hitting some jumpers, the Orl defense will have to adjust and things will change...not sure why they are not putting Ziggy or Lebron on the block at least make the Magic work on Defense...slow the game down and take away the transition 3 pointers....I think what your seeing here is that Mike Brown is not a big game coach, he has made no adjustments...so we will have to wait and see....Cleveland needs Williams and West to start making some shots...even Van Gundy mentioned after yesterdats game that Cleveland missed alot of open looks.....things tend to change quickly in the NBA....is the series over, heck no, espeically if the Cavs find a way in Game 4...I am not confident they can get it done, but dont count your chickens before they hatch....kinda like the Nuggets fans did after they one one game in LAComment -
the only way the cavs win is if james can get help from west or williams,and thats a big if.the orlando magic are geting the help they need from turk.they cant stop lewis,and howard.howard is playing like a monster.Comment -
delonte west is not the problem.
he plays defense and gives u about 10-15 pts, which is wat hes been doing.
mo williams is the real problem. he is supposedly the second scorer on the team and he is stinking it up.
is it a credit to the magics defense? or is he just missing shots?Comment -
laker, yankee fan since 84^^^^ yea fkin right, he likes the pats 4 sure lol
