Pretty amazing that the Cavs managed to win despite LeBron's awful shooting in the second half today. I had no idea the Cavs could play such great defense. Still, I think it is Pistons in six, but I was expecting a sweep. Hats of to the Cavs no matter what happens from here on out.

I'm the biggest Philly fanboy there is so if I don't like him you know there's something wrong.

If the Cavs win this series I will be fully prepared to call James the best player since Jordan. Hell, I may anyway.

I think that's an already undeniable fact.

Winning 2 games in this series was more than Jordan ever could have done at age 21.

I can't wait until he matures a little bit more. He still takes too many bad shots, such as settling for 20 foot jumpshots with 15 seconds on the shot clock late in the game with a slim lead... instead of driving the lane and trying to get to the line.

Didn't it take Jordan 4 tries to get out of the first round?

Something like that, I believe he advanced to round 2 in his 6th year in the league or something.

Nice excuse. Cleveland still managed to win two games without Larry Hughes, so the excuses are pretty much null and void in this series.

I think all three wins were without Larry Hughes.

Glad to see the Cavs win. When Lebron dished it under to Gooden for the winning shot is a prime example as to why Kobe will always live under James' shadow (that and the whole rapey stuff) IMO. No doubt that despite drawing the double team Kobe would have shot that ball. Might have gone in but he would've definitely shot that ball.

James is damn good for just his 3rd (?) year in the league. That said I'd be willing to bet the Pistons still win the series. As a Pacers fan I've seen my team come home with a 3-2 lead and lose to many times.

Rasheed is the ONLY post presence Detroit has. He has much more range than dice' and matches the intensity of Ben Wallace. Rasheed is clutch (except for the defensive lapse on Horry) and there is no way you can compare his value to that of Hughes and the Cavs.
