CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Cavaliers packed for a weekend stay in Beantown -- not a few weeks on Cape Cod.
They've got at least one more game left, and in the NBA, it's as big as they ever get.
Game 7. On Sunday. In Boston.
LeBron James scored 32 points -- 19 in the second half -- and the Cavaliers forced a decisive and fitting finale to this home-sweet-home playoff series with a 74-69 victory Friday night over the Celtics, who have gone from regular-season road kings to postseason road kill.
O-H .... I-O !!!
:cheersmate:

I've been hoping for a Lakers/Celtics NBA Finals but it seems the Celtics may not get there. Even if they beat the Cavs they still have to get by Detroit and I don't know if they can. I know the home court advantage is huge this year and the Celts have it, but they've really been getting their asses kicked on others teams home court. I wonder if they are really as good as their regular season record.

A Celtics vs. Lakers series would be a nice throwback, but, I think it will be the Lakers vs. Pistons, personally.

I like my Cavs but King James needs some help for this team to push to the top. Not even a lot of help. Just a little more will do.
I don't know what's up with Boston. Their road record was great before the playoffs. Meh. I'll root for anyone verses the Lakers be it Celtics or Pistons or even the Spurs (if they win monday).

paul pierce matched lebron blow for blow....

Pierce also disproved the fallacy that the mid-range jumper is a lost art. He was pouring them in.

Yup, pretty much. Paul's 'D' was the difference in the series though. Pierce is in his prime too and King James still has a thing or two to learn. It was really a graet series to watch. I like the team that Boston got built. Hope Cleveland took some notes for the off season which I guess, for them, started today, lol.
