Spurs vs. Cavs...who ya got?
I'm saying Spurs in 6. LeBron + Cleveland fans are worth 2 wins IMO. But I wouldn't be surprised if the Spurs swept them either. It will be interesting to see how far LeBron can carry a mediocre team with a sub-par coach.

I would like to see the Cavs win, but I don't really see it happening. The Spurs are to be the next NBA Dynasty I suppose. I am still rooting for the Cavs. Go King James!!!

Spurs in 5.
Bowen will be like glue on James and the Cavs cant guard Duncan. If R. Wallace had played a low post game instead of jacking up the 3 ball it would be the Pistons against the Spurs. h.h.

I am going to go with the Cavs in 6 .... Lebron is one of those special players that can just impose his will on everyone around him.
Finals MVP
28.5 PPG 8 RPG 7 APG
He seems to "get it" more than the other young talent in the game. He protects his image and composes himself like a business man instead of a .......

Too bad I work nights, this one could be interesting. The Cavs can't stop duncan and the Spurs can't stop Lebron. Both stars know how to pass, and don't mind doing it. Lebron, interestingly, was recently criticized FOR passing the ball to an open shooter in a crunch situation. If he had took the shot and missed, everybody would have called him selfish.
Common sense tells me the Spurs wil take it, but just for yuks I'm gonna say Cavs in seven.

I know nothing about basketball, but I will go for the Spurs, as I grew up in the Alamo City and still have "hometown pride"... ;D

Wow, the Spurs dominated pretty much the whole game. The Cavs kept it close early and made a run late in the 4th, but it really was no contest. If the Spurs win, Mike Brown should be given the finals MVP for them. He played Larry Hughes 23 minutes while he was limping around like he crossed the Armenian mob. Doesn't even start their best PG in Daniel Gibson, who should be playing 35+ minutes. Ilgauskas couldn't guard Bill Russell, at his current age. If Gooden, Varejao, Pavlovic, and Gibson have games like they did last night, and LeBron can step it up, we may have a series.

Spurs are going to take James out of the game and make the roll players beat them. I dont think they can. Spurs are the best defensive team in the NBA. I think the Cavs will win one of their home games but as I said earlier, Spurs in 5. h.h.

I like the Cavs, but Spurs in 6. Too much talent. Cleveland needs a second go to man to keep the Spurs defense honest. Boobie Gibson is gonna have to score 20+ per game and get more minutes. The big man Ilgaustkis will need to help pressure Duncan and alter his shot. Too many easy dunks last night. I don't have an answer for Tony Parker. He's a very quick and smart player. Pop is probably 3X the coach that Mike Brown is. This is a very exciting series though. I'm glad the Motor City isn't in. They bore me to tears
