I am unsure. Both teams have won on the other teams home court. The Cavs body language last game reminded me of when they got beat by Orlando though. So I am going with Boston. 1. I believe KG's mismatch on Jamison is killing the Cavs. 2. Mo Williams is playing like a Mo. 3. Paul Pierce got his edge back last game. Bad news for the Cavs.
With James not playing at maximum effectiveness, Rondo playing at pretty much his highest level and Boston's aging former stars playing well, I'd have to pick Boston. Cleveland is built for regular season success. In the small sample sizes of single series, with teams game-planning just for them, a single superstar and a group of iffy supporting scorers is very ripe for being upset.
I still don't buy the whole elbow thing. You don't score 24 points in a quarter if your elbow is feeling that bad. You can't have it both ways. Either your elbow is bad or it's not. He has had many good games since the "elbow injury" was brought up. I guess take all the credit for the wins, but when you play badly, blame it on the elbow? Not in my book.
I voted Boston. If it is close then I think LeBron will pull it out. But Boston will be fired up and it may not be close.
The last time the Celtics were up 3-2 and played a game 6 in Boston, they beat the Lakers by 40 to win the championship.
You would think so against most teams, but Boston has guys that are good closers too. I can tell you never want to face Ray Allen when you need him to miss a game winner. The same of Pierce.
Very true. But does the NBA want a game 7? do they want the King to advance? OK i am kidding, but lets see who the refs are first. It will be interesting to see who gets the calls early.
LeBron can say all he wants to the refs without fear of getting a T in a big game like this. Sheed? If he talks, he's gone, lol.
