*******************************************************

The series is tied at 3-3. There will be a game 7 in Boston on Sunday. Boston has the homecourt so it will be a favored game for them. Cleveland has not shot the ball well in this series as well as the Celtics neither. Will LeBron lead his team to the ECF to face his nemesis team Detroit, or will the Celtics go to the ECF where they haven't been there since 1987?

I want Paul Pierce's nostrils to stop looking at me.

It's gonna be a war on Sunday but I gotta go with Boston.

If we continue to play like we did in game 6, we have zero chance in Boston.

It wouldn't suprise me to see Boston lose.. They've been completely unimpressive.. All the talk about their record against WC teams, yet they're struggling mightly to take out the East's lesser teams..

This is so unbelievably scripted. The refs did their best to help the Cavs get this to game 7. So expect to see a lot of home cooking in return for Boston and probably deservedly so after watching a WWE match disguised as a basketball game.

LOL at the punk known as Lebron. With 0.0 sec left on the clock, he throws the ball directly at the Boston bench. He should alt least be fined. If that was Jason Terry or Jerry Stackhouse, he would be suspended. Doc Rivers had a right to be mad!!

I see this being a very hyped up game that doesn't deliver. Boston will win convincingly.

Thats not a very bold prediction these playoffs, but you're probably right.

For what I watched tonight, that is not at all true.

I don't think the calls were THAT bad. The goal tend certainly would have helped, but that was a REALLY close call.
