Eastern Conference Finals Match-up: (1) Cavs vs. (3) Magic

They're still in the game, but even with Mo's 23 pts and LeBron's tripple double it's only 1 pt lead.

Looks like Cleveland will escape with this one but with the effort they gave in this game, I don't think this series will go Game 7. They given up a huge 22 point lead. The self-proclaimed King had a good game though.

What I see is that only guy who's willing to play and isn't afraid of taking shots is LeBron. Others look like they don't have the confidence to make any big play, maybe sometimes except Delonte. Their talent level is 55 win team, and I highly doubt that they can win a championship when everyone is standing on the perimeter and looking at LeBron.

i see a team afraid that if they miss 1 shot they gotta feel the wrath of lebron. how can anyone on this team play with confidence when their leader does not even have faith in them? reminds me so much of the bulls before jordan got his shit together

I'm positive it will come with age and experience. Lebron isn't like Jordan in the locker room. He's one of those guys who is easy to be with. However, his status of being the king makes others nervous, I guess. But it's not like he has a superstar by his side like Jordan or Kobe did when they won it all. It's still early in his career and he's already achieved a lot. By the way, he won it by doing everything tonight. The series isn't over. Lebron just needs one from Orlando. Game 7 at home should definitely be winnable if ever gets there.

The rest of his team played crappy even before LeBron started to get frustrated so I don't think that's the case here. Although last game is an exception, since Mo finally had a good game.
I'm still not sure if Cavs can win 3 in a row. I certainly hope so, but it will be pretty difficult to win in Orlando.

fuckkkk 1 more loss and thats it

I don't quite believe Cleveland will win this one . But who knows !?
If Mo " The Choken One " Williams step up once again and help LeBron , it'll be much harder for the Magic to close this one out but if the 3's start falling for the Magic , this Series is over .

If nothing else the Cavs have salvaged a little dignity by extending the series but barring a successful comeback from the 3-1 deficit with two more victories it will be a letdown given the expectations. That's not to take anything away from the Magic but when you have the league's best record at 66-16, go 39-2 at home and sweep your way through the first two round with double digit wins, anything less than a Finals appearance is a season that crashed and burned even if you're eliminated at the hands of a quality opponent.

OMG,That was a very worse start for the Magic-Team mmh it looks like the Victory (East-Final-Championship) for Magic-Team is now in Orlando I hope it so

Yeah, because if not, Cleveland will have all the confidence in the world come the seventh game.

Game 6 will tell everything. If Cleveland by any chance manage to win game 6, they'll likely win the series. That will give them all the reasons to believe that they can actually win this thing. I hope it's all over in game 6 though, I'd love to see Mo Williams eat up his claims.

I think a Game 7 would be a toss-up, both of Cleveland's victories have come at home but Orlando's been playing too well to not be given a chance of surviving the Cavs' surging comeback attempt. Perhaps the Magic would be rattled by going from being up 3-1 to a decisive seventh game on the road but the Cavs could easily run out of steam too. As you can probably tell I'm going back and forth on this one, I don't have a gut feeling that leans strongly either way; my inclination to pick the Cavs as the home team in a possible Game 7 is thwarted by how well the Magic have been playing. Of course it could well be over in Game 6 so I'll be boring, play it safe and wait on picking a Game 7 winner until such time as there is a Game 7. My original prediction for the series is already out.

When I said Magic in 6... I meant it.

If Mo Williams guarantees again in Orlando to win, why not

Win or go Home Cleveland

Well maybe my english is not very well, thats the problem but still I mine this http://www.nba.com/2009/playoffs2009/05 ... index.html

LeBron is absoulutely ridiculous in what he did nearing the final minutes of game five.
All the Cavs did was isolate LeBron in the top of the key while his teammates just stood, and he delivered.
There's even a sequence where Mo Williams was trying signalling LeBron to pass the ball, Mo's "help" was waived off by LeBron wanting to take it one-one-one with Pietrus.

Reminds me of what he did against the Pistons in the 2007 ECF.

Got tickets for the game today.

Gonna be sweet to watch the Magic destroy.

I envy you. I really do. Please watch the Magics crush the Cavs for me too.

I don't. Don't be so sure it'll be a blowout.

It wont be a blowout, but I said that because I'd rather see the Magics in the finals. At least Dwight can give LA's frontcourt some trouble, if the Cavs are in the finals then Ilgauskaus or however you spell his name wont be a threat to LA's frontcourt at all and it will be so boring to watch Gasol dropping in every left hand hook shot.

Cool enjoy it

I envy you. I really do. Please watch the Magics crush the Cavs for me too.

Haha is now crush and destroy time in Amway Arena

It won't be a blowout.

But hell, even a 1 point Magic win is one hell of a statement.

I envy you. I really do. Please watch the Magics crush the Cavs for me too.

Sure thing.

Having the Magic is one of the only benefits of living in this shit city.

Didn't get the best tickets in the world though, yet they're surely better than nothing.

Lamrock can start the new poll right now.

See? It's a blowout!
