Just like to point out a lot of you posters also had Miami in 4 or 5 against the Raptors.

There is a good chance Clevland will win in 4 or 5. However Raps for once have absolutely nothing to lose and I can see Lowry and Derozen with no pressure playing like they have the last few games and the regular season.

If by any stretch of the imagination Raps can play up to their abilities, there is a chance it could be a close series.

Maybe I'm alone here but I like the Raps chances. They won the season series against Cleveland. They are scrappy as ****. I hope they can run Cleveland off the line and drag them into the muck. Raptors in 7.

Kyle and Demar finally hitting their stride. Don't take us lightly you might actually get punched in the face game 1. Cavs with 9 days off and Raps fresh off a thrilling win, look out, you may be surprise with what we bring on to the court.

Good luck to both Cleveland and Toronto, may the best team win!!!

Predictions:

1) The Cavaliers fall behind 2 games to 1, and feel themselves losing momentum. Mid-way through Game 4, Coach James calls Dahntay Jones in off the bench. Jones, attempting to be sneaky, waits about 2 minutes before committing a foul so ridiculous that it becomes his last act on an NBA court.

2) James Johnson, in an attempt to intimidate or maybe entertain, performs a karate kata at half-court; neither goal is accomplished, but two children from a local dance troupe are taken to hospital after being hit by an axe kick. Johnson is suspended for the rest of the playoffs, but his actions land him a role in an upcoming Judd Apatow movie.

Raptors are playing more to their potential looking like the team that won 56 games in the regular season. Cleveland has taken it up a level and are looking like a team that could win the championship.

Cavs in 5. 6 at worst.

It's amusing that a number of Cavs fan on this thread are more cautious than Heat fans, who all said Heat in 4 or 5 at the beginning of last series.

I have no problem with a person predicting a sweep in this series. But just remember, we beat the team, that beat the almighty Charlotte Hornets.

You should be a coach some day.


Lol I know it sounds rediculous but realistically what's raps chance or winning game one, considering they lost two game 1 at home already

As proud as I am of this team, I don't see us winning this series. Cavs in 5, but I'm hoping it goes 6!
