Can't believe the Mag cut it to 1 at the half.

I can. I feel like I've watched the same game every time. Cavs go up big, Magic come back with a vengance.

LOL, anyone else catch James's obvious travel at the top of the circle? I rewound on TiVo just to make sure it wasn't my imagination.

If they called traveling every time he did that he wouldn't be MVP.

If you didn't think for a nanosecond that Cleveland was not going to win this game you're delusional. It's all a matter of how much they win by.

Are Lakers fans [sic] scared of the Cleveland Cavaliers?

No. The only thing that scares me about that matchup is that we probably wouldn't win 3 straight at home, so we'd have to take 2 in Ohio. It's doable. Great matchup for the Lakers. We don't matchup so well with the Magic. We swept the Cavs this year, the Magic swept us. But we'd have HCA against Orlando.

Pros and Cons to the Lakers in either matchup. But we have to down Denver first, anyway.

Lakers vs. Cavs = Kobe/Gasol vs. LeBron...

I'll take my chances with Kobe/Gasol and say that the Lakers would enjoy that matchup. They better hope LeBron continues to be super-human...

What an epic fail of a team the Cavs are, they won tonight...but they just prolonged the heart ache until Saturday...

Goes to show what happens when your whole game plan is to get Lebron the ball and get out of his way.

Lebron scored a bunch of points like usual, but the key to this game that wasn't apparent in the others was that his teammates caught fire. Mo Williams finally woke up after last series, Illgauskas played well offensively and Varejao was aggressive. Don't forget, Lebron got a triple-double with 12 assists and 14 rebounds.

To be honest, the Suns weren't expected throughout the season to steam roll to the championship, the Cavs were and are clearly being beat by a superior team.

Hmm, if the league really wants James in the Finals, they'd better start making something happen. Lakers-Kings Game 6, anyone?
