i see no reason why we can't win this game we should have had game 1 and we could have wone game 2.

if the players can generate the same level of energy we have at home. and wally, joe smith, big ben, and delonte can get it going, as well as andy (when did he learn to shoot and defend). we can win this game then go home to cleveland and finish this and get ready for detriot

Tonight is Lebrons night.

After the game Mon. he made mention of last years game 5 in Detroit.

Now the Celts. fan don't feel that LBJ can do the same thing that he did last year to Det. don't doubt him. And we all know, if he can't score 50 against the Celtics, he will do WHATEVER it takes.

LOL,

By the same token Celtics could have won game 4. Game 4 and 1 were both close. Game 2 and 3 were 20 point blow outs in each direction.

So far, the teams are evenly matched, with exception of Celtics having home court advantage.

There is a pretty big difference between winning a game that you never had a lead during crunch time and lost by 9 pts and one that you had a 6 point lead with 3 minutes to go (and only lost by 2) like the Cavs did. I do however agree that the Cavs never had a realistic

50 points?

Let's see, LeBron has a 26% FG Pct against the Celtics so he would have to shoot the ball between 65-95 times tonight to get 50 points depending on how many 3pt shots he made.

Good Luck.

Boy are you Celtic fans delirious. But that's okay, I couldn't care less if LeBron goes for 50, 30, or 10 as long as the Cavs get the W.

Lebron has to get it done somewhere....he has to quit settling for a 22ft jump shot and go to the rack...his game starts by driving to the basket....so what if he gets hacked...go to the line and hit 75% of your free throws and get them in foul trouble.....the Cavs go with Lebron...if he gets it going then the shooters will follow suit.

Good Luck tonight... It's probably the series decider... I got a feeling that LeBron is going to do what he did to us in Game 5 last year...

Anxiously awaiting the winner here...

Everyone keeps saying LeBron has to have a monster game for us to win... really? Did LeBron have a monster game 3 or 4? Did he even have a monster game 1 when we should have won? In my opinion, us winning the game is less about changes that LeBron makes and more about the supporting cast to continue to produce. If Wally, Boobie, and Delonte are hitting the open 3's, and Z, and Joe the open jumpers, and Ben, Z, and Andy are rebounding, all the while everyone is playing solid D, then there is no reason that LeBron has to off for 40 points. He can just play his normal game and rack up near triple double numbers while finishing the game off for us late.

I think he needs to be more efficient that he has been shooting the rock but he definitly doesn't have to go for 40... I just have a feeling that he will go off.

You guys have a damn good team.. I don't think that we have to see Super LeBron tonight but we do have to see normal LeBron..

Enjoy the game

Well, you know.. As long we come out with the win, then I am satisfied. Let's try to steal this one away, if not, then let's force a game 7. Fact is I don't care if LeBron shoots 5% from the field as long as we obtain a victory to build more momentum to advance to the ECF against Detroit.

Very nice start by the Cavs, lets hope they carry this momentum to the second half.

As usual the 3rd quarter doldrums have hit..hard.

I just hope the buzz wears off and the Celtics revert to chaos offense.

Refs are calling nothing either way--that has to favor the Cavs better size and depth. All that physicality makes the legs tire quickly.

We are not winning this game, plain and simple.

Where is ANY defense?

We just suck on the road, without our shooters hitting threes, we don't have much chance...
