But back to the series, I would like to see Lebron do it, especially this fast. The cavs haven't really faced much this postseason. Wizards, Nets, and then the Pistons. The Pistons are a perimeter scoring team, the only person who could go inside and score is Rasheed, and he refuses to do it because he is lazy. That said the spurs have an inside presence, and they have unbelievable perimeter shooters. They also have the best defense in the league. Unfortunately the Cavs will die a fast death, Lebron will have this experience under his belt for the god knows how many titles he will have in the future. But the other "hack" players on Cleveland won't be able to handle it. The spurs have been there before, 3x. I like Boobie Gibson, but until players like Drew (I need to shave the pubic hair off the back of my head) Gooden find a way to earn a paycheck the cavs won't have a chance. Hope I don't eat crow in two weeks

Drew can give that piece of hair to Rasheed..
he could use it to feel in that PATCH!
Anyways those are your best players...Flip should have used Maxiell more, Rasheed could be unstopable in the post. You guys need some more guards and you are aging.
As far as the series, the Spurs should win the series, but if you look at the intangibles I think the CAVS have the edge with Brown/Ferry spending lots of time in SA, the records CAVS have against SA and the West. The fact if they win one in SA, they have 3 games in a row in CLE, and CLEV matches up alot
better with SA's players and style of play than some other team like PHX and DAL.
Key is rebounds and we are sick on the boards.
Also stoping ginobli and and keeping parker from penetrating.

I understand Chauncey and Rasheed are the best players, but Billups choked. And Rasheed has some of the best talent in the NBA, and could be unstoppable inside but he is so lazy and would rather shoot the 3. Not to mention his whiney attitude. I think he brings the team down. And Webber defensively is a joke. Garnett loves Saunders, so I wouldn't mind seeing him in a pistons uniform. If you guys can stop Parker you have a real chance, that is the key, but thats a big if. The first game will be very telling, if the Spurs are off and are rusty due to the eight days they had off, then you can steal one. If you don't I think it could be very ugly. This will be a very low scoring, rock you to sleep type of series. My girlfriend is from Avon Lake, so I will want to vomit by the end of the series, then I have to turn around and here about Ohio State. Yack!!!!

OHIO has kicked Michigan's Butt this Year

You guys must me ticked off up there this year

I think you lost because of the guard play in the series, as well as Lebron
See I think a break either way will decide the winner of the Finals

This year???? OSU has won 5 in the past 6 years. Enough is Enough. I will say the city of Cleveland needs this championship, I use to go to the flats 10 years ago, and went again for the first time last year. It has just fallen apart. Its a great city, and I hope it will come back. Unfortunately I think the experience of the Spurs will be to overwhelming.
The Tigers and the Tribe will be some good baseball to watch down the stretch. But the Lions and the Browns will always suck.

They are re-vitalizing the Flats.. Bernie Kosar just signed on to bring one of his succesful restuarants there and they are going to open the biggest night club there b/w chicago and NY. So hopefully in a year or so when you come back it will be alive again...Ohio sports has had a good year despite the chanpionship losses..a Cavs win would be great, and if the Browns made the playoffs... and the Indians... it would be an awesome year...We've made it to 3 championships so far.. maybe 3rd will be the charm...

85-76, Spurs win game 1. I fell asleep in the fourth quarter but caught the third and the Cav's were down by 18 at one point of the game. Spurs I'm willing to bet are going to win and this just proved it.

Its definitely bad news for the Cavs that the Spurs blew them out after being off for 8 days. There isn't any rust, and the Spurs look hungry for another championship. Now its a matter of how bad the Cavs get beat.

Even the Spur loving announcers thought he was.
