Boston in 5, even they struggled a bit in the first round.

If Boston had problems with Joe Johnson, how the hell are they supposed to contain LeBron James?

Boston will have problems with LeBron, but I think they will win the series in 5 or 6 games. I hope the CAVS can beat the CELTICS though.

I think that Celtics and Cavaliers will be a better matchup than people anticipate. If the Cavs can steal one in Boston, then I like the chances of a Cavs series win....

Lebron is such a flopper. The officials just fall for it too. Seriously he grabs his face even though nobody got near his face and the officials call a technical. You're 6'8" 260. Stop playing like such a little pansy.

The Cavs are playing so bad, it's ridiculous. I can't believe the Cavs are still in this...missing wide open shots, passing to nobody, not moving around when LeBron or Ilgauskas has the ball, etc....

Oh, and Cassell got called for that flagrant because after he lost his shot at the ball, he grabbed his shoulder and yanked on his jersey. He didn't just let it go after he couldn't get the ball, he started going after the player himself. The refs are clearly intent on not letting the game get too out of hand physically. That's why the flagrant was called. It just so happens that the player everybody goes after is LeBron, that's why he's getting this.

Wow. The CAVS shot only 30.7% from the field but were able to stay in the game til the end. Pierce scored only 4 while Allen shot only 0 for 4 with nothing. LeBron had a bad shooting performance as well. Three superstars had a night off at the same time. That's something we don't see often.

Both teams played like crap, but Boston played a touch better, probably due to home court. Still, this isn't the type of game you'll see either team have again.
