I've been following Cleveland sports for 37 years very closely. Ok...so they get by this series...big deal they then lose the next one. It's all moot.

I hope Cleveland loses too. I've seen no championships in the city in 43 years of living. I really deserve to see none. So yeah, I really hope they lose. I really know they'll win game 2?? LIke I knew they'd win game 1?? Is that how it works?

in all fairness, that game could have gone either way. Cleveland had the lead with 14 seconds left. Lewis hits a big shot, West misses a shot he hit 1 minute earlier and now we are talking about cleveland winning A GAME on the road.

It doesn't matter...even if they get by this series...there is a next series.

You really don't understand. IF Cleveland gets to the finals, they could be up 3 games to none with a 20 point lead going into the 4th quarter of game 4. I would not be confident they could win the series. Cleveland's last game of this season will be a loss. I don't care where or when.

Scrambler, i hope you are right. It may not be this year, but number 23 will win championships. He is a force the likes of which the nba has not seen.

You sound just like a Philly fan... Its really hard but when you get there (which you will) its just so great.

And I also eat a big slice of crow for saying Cavs will sweep and O-town has no shot.

Howard acts like a baby though. And I do agree a little with A-team that the refs root for the Cavs.

You know how many titles the city of PHiladelphia has won in my lifetime?? (5 I think??) infinitely more than Cleveland. My God, the Phillies themselves have 2 alone!! Philly fans have gone to Everrest the last 40 plus years multiple times. Don't compare any city's fans to Cleveland fans. It ain't the same.

Everyone just stop with the referee stuff...just stop. Please. So if the Cavs magically somehow beat the Magic and Lakers/Nuggets, I'm going to hear how it was only because David Stern handed it to them because LeBron needed to win the title. Stop it everyone, please.

Hey you said your lifetime... and in my lifetime it was the same thing until last year...
