finals preview

I can't say much more than anyone already has. There's really not much debate going on in this series. It seems that everyone is picking San Antonio in 5 games or so, hoping that LeBron can come up with some huge games, but not really believing it. I'm in the same boat.

Spurs in 6.

Why six? They could conceivably sweep the Cavs. But even the Bulls let their series go to six games. You get to celebrate at home. I think, like some have suggested, that there will be a game or two where LeBron gets hot, and gets favorably foul calls, and the Cavs pull it off. But they won't have a realistic shot of winning the series, unless a TON of crazy things happen (injuries, meltdowns, Mike Brown learning to coach offense). I'd like to see it. But I think thsi is going to be like Sixers-Lakers... promising but they just aren't on the same level. Oh well. At least Cleveland is doing something again.
