God I hope so. I've somehow latched myself onto the two most cursed cities when it comes to sports, Buffalo (football and hockey) and Cleveland (baseball and basketball).

most overrated team I've seen in a while. they are pretty much garbage outside of lebron. mo williams is a good player but a bad fit for the cavs. everyone else sucks

without lebron the cavs are "'bage", however they do have him. he totally changes the game and how defenses have to play. the cavs just need a post scoring treat, if lbj gets a post game in the next few years he will be UNSTOPPABLE. but the cavs should roll in the east, their toughest matchup looks to be orlando. celts are way too banged up. anyone but boston please.

I know regular season records mean just about squat in the post season but their 39-1 home record is pretty nuts.

First round we have the pistions... I dont think the pistons will win one.
I dont think boston makes it past orlando.
East finals will be orlando-cleveland. Itll be tough but I think cleveland takes it in 6.
I dont see anyone beating the lakers in the west so finals should be cavs-lakers like everyone has seen for a while. That will prob go to 7 and I honestly dont know who comes out on top of that. The only thing that makes me lean towards the cavs is that when the lakers played them the cavs werent near full strength. I see the lakers underestimating them and losing some early ones but coming back later. Its a toss up as to who takes it though.

Ok guys let me give it to you straight. Cavs are not my team but with the way they play at home, and since they are going to have home court during every playoff series, they are going to win it all. They are pretty much unstoppable at home. Lakers are the only one to defeat them at home but I highly doubt Lakers will win more than one game in Cleveland during the Finals.
