    I found a few suckers at work who think that this series will be a sweep. I don't see it. I think I just won a few more dollars.

    It's amazing how many people think sweeps are gonna happen. Last year when Dallas went up 2-0 over Miami, a guy at work bet me $250 that it would be a sweep.

    4 straight Miami victories later, I had the cash in my hand and a pretty good laugh

        Cleve played bad and was in the game most of the time, I see them winning 2 games.

          they will win game three and lose 4-1 in the series, just like Utah did...

              If the Cavs win tonite, I'll laugh at the "sweep talk" because this baby is gonna go 6 games if the Cavs win tonite.

              If the Cavs lose tonite, I'll be getting laughed at because the Spurs will likely close them out in Game 4

                Laugh it up Austin, your sweep will arrive on Thursday, and I'll have some (deserved) egg all over my face. I really thought Cleveland would win this game..

                  They had chances...how many chippies did James miss?! Maybe they'll get game four...sometimes a team will let up a little so they can clinch in front of the home crowd. Not too likely though.

                      If they want to clinch at home, they'd better let up quite a bit. Games 4 and 5 are both in Cleveland..

                        I am watching very closely and intently doubting my wagering skills. This is the make or break game.

                          Sea, historically speaking, our prediction of 'no sweep' was correct. Unfortunately, just not this year. I hope you don't base your capping ability on this one pick -- it was not a bad pick. It was the wrong pick, but not a bad pick by any stretch.

                          Who would've known that Cleveland would stink it up from the arc last game and give that game away. They didn't play well tonight either and damn near won the game.

                            I thought it went 1-2-5-7 for home games in a seven game series and 3-4-6 away (for the team with home court advantage)... Oh well...shows how much I know. NBA has lost much of its appeal for me.
