that was the way to finish off a sweep. impressive 30 point blowout over #1 east seed atlanta. this makes 5 straight nba finals for lebron james, which put him in legendary company. only a handful of nba players have done that, and only bill russell and bob cousy of the great celtic teams in the 60s were all-stars (ie leading players on their team, not just role players) who made 5 straight finals. you have to think golden state wraps up the west tonite, and their guards/outside shooting will be a challenge. but this cleveland team has come together the 2nd half of the season with this changed roster. hopefully irving can use the next week to heal up some. i think gs/cavs will be a very watchable series.

We should start a pool about how it is the Cavs are going to screw this up, because come on....This is Cleveland...you KNOW it's going happen.
The fun is in guessing HOW? Will it be a Bartman type of interaction with a fan? Will it be injury? Will a starter get arrested just prior to game 3? Maybe 2 flagrants and an ejection? 3-45 from the field?
It HAS to be something!
But WHAT???

Should be an interesting NBA Finals series. I may have to watch the NBA for the first time in a few years.
It's good to see two relative "newcomers" slugging it out, for a change.
Nothing against Golden State, but I'd like to see Cleveland win this one.
Could be Ohio's year, in more ways than one.

But WHAT??? i think san francisco digs up harry callahan to steal motorcycle from the cleveland pd and then chases lebron off a pier on the flats into lake erie. at least that was the nightmare i had last night... ha |

This series may actually pry me out of my "I refuse the watch the NBA" hole. If I ever do catch a few minutes of a game, it usually involves LeBron and I love that he went home to Ohio (in the end, dont we all go home to Ohio? Ha.) so the storyline is there but throw in arguably the most fun player to watch in Steph Curry and it may be too much to pass up. Hmmmm....

Lived thru Red Right 88, The Drive, The Fumble, The Shot, Mesa's blown save, the NL Umps handing the Braves a WS, the Red Sox comeback, LeBron leaving. Been thru it all. With 1 second left in game 7, Cavs up 2, Lebron will miss a FT, Curry rebounds, tosses it 80 feet and swish. Golden St wins |

The City of Cleveland has gone 51 years and 143 seasons. Thats combined total of the Browns, Indians, Cavs, and short lived Barons seasons since the city has last won a championship. The next longest streak is San Diego, which is at 103 seasons and 47 years. |

that was the way to finish off a sweep. impressive 30 point blowout over #1 east seed atlanta. this makes 5 straight nba finals for lebron james, which put him in legendary company. only a handful of nba players have done that, and only bill russell and bob cousy of the great celtic teams in the 60s were all-stars (ie leading players on their team, not just role players) who made 5 straight finals. you have to think golden state wraps up the west tonite, and their guards/outside shooting will be a challenge. but this cleveland team has come together the 2nd half of the season with this changed roster. hopefully irving can use the next week to heal up some. i think gs/cavs will be a very watchable series.
Many of the talking heads on TV have the Warriors winning it in 6 as does Vegas___I like the the underdog role here and hope the Cavs embrace it as well |

Many of the talking heads on TV have the Warriors winning it in 6 as does Vegas___I like the the underdog role here and hope the Cavs embrace it as wellmost of the media loved lebron coming back home, but then moved on to the next new cool thing, and that was 1. steph curry lighting it up. a little guy from davidson winning the mvp. 2. steve kerr taking over for mark jackson and leading the warriors back to the top of the west for the first time since nate thurmond days. kerr was respected as a player and as a tv analyst, so he's a fave for those who cover the association. 3. reporters ALWAYS love offense over defense. never fails, never changes. it's why reporters don't change professions and live in vegas much. lol dellavadova doesn't have the foot speed to hang w/golden state's guards over the course of a game, and irving is still gimpy but a week off his feet, i hope, will do a lot of good. but a combo of james, shumpert et al and that height/length advantage helping out on the perimeter? that might slow down curry/thompson enough to give the cavs a legit shot. green vs cleveland's bigs, especially thompson, will be fun to watch. i think it goes the distance. and don't discount lebron's playoff experience. that should come in handy too with all the newbies on both squads. |

Sad part is having witnessed all I have when it comes to Cleveland sports that scenario is 100% legit possible |
