My prediction:
Cavs win 106-24.

[prekazi]

We're gonna win, we have to win!!!

[SALMIEN]

laker fan here , i want you to win bad. go cavs that's my team in the east, we want to see you in the finals so you have to have home court against the celtics.

[DSe]

So, KG is out?!?! If so I think Cleveland should win this one quite easily. Bostons defense is pretty suspect without him and the Cavs are playing to well right now. Should be a good one though.

[Rise Against]

Let's see.. KG is out yet again and he usually plays very well against us. We have Joe Smith making his debut and he played very well against Boston during last year's playoffs. If LeBron can play that defense of his like he did the last meeting, I'd say our chances our pretty good. Although, we can't get ahead of ourselves. Boston is still a very good team even without KG.

Must win game. Basically counts as 2 games. Hands them another loss, and gives us the edge for the tie-breaker.

If we want HC advantage, this is a must win game.

[Niko23]

I wish KG was playing

i do, i think its awesome...ill send you a royalty check everytime i use it lol

Simply the biggest regular season game in the history of the cavs. WIn and we go up 3 in the loss column for first place in the conference, lose and it drops to 1 and Boston pretty much wraps up the tie breaker (they would have a 4 loss advantage in conference record, which is the 2nd tiebreaker). Even with a win, we have to win the last game with Boston to wrap up the tie breaker.

I would love for Bron to lock up the spitter on D and completely destroy him on the other end. I've always had a severe disliking for Paul Pierce, Doc Rivers, Kevin Garnett, and Stephon Mebury. The rest of the team I actually dont mind, but those 4 guys together easily make them the team I hate the most in the league. It must be fate for four of my most hated list to end up on the same team which just so happens to be our biggest rival in the East this year. Makes the story line all the better for me. Cant wait to beat the snot out of those guys.

[prekazi]

Hope Bron's mind is locked to this game. If he approaches this game like he did the game in the Q, not just the Celtics, no team has a chance against us.

Man what a great, flawless performance was that. He almost made Paul Pierce cry.

Huge game,

Should be a fun game to watch.

I forgot all about Mikki Moore being on that team as well. He definately is on my ten most hated players in the NBA list also. Man do they have a ton of guys I cant stand.


Also, Windy confirmed Joe will be in uniform and should play tonight. Cant wait!

[Benedict_Boozer]

Man we need this game bad. I'm pretty excited for tonight especially if Joe is suiting up.

What a huge boost that will be to the 2nd unit.

[Notorious23]

Boston fans saying he won't play in there thread. Are they getting facts from SAS again?

[SALMIEN]

Go cavs this is like game 7 in the finals lets be happy.
