ive noticed how much the NBA loves lebron they have like 200 something videos of him on youtube, the refs give him everything when he even gets breathed on, and they hype him up so bad its not even funny they might as well announce and "Kobe Bryant VS LeBron James Finals" in those words seeing as thats the only thing they care about

Their hope is that they sign one of the big FA's next year.

Detroit played tough in the 3rd, but they're badly outmatched

Kwaeme Brown actually looked almost decent for a stretch
Yup

Curry messed this game up. All the reserves are playing with high energy Affalo, Bynum, Kwame, Amir, Herrmann, and he didn't play them enough in the 4th.   He didn't play them enough all game. Prince, Rip & Rasheed are playing terrible. They have no energy and are going through the motions.  The reserves went on a huge run in the 4th of Game 2.  All you have to do is run on Cle they are not great and they do not play well when the pace of the game picks up. That is what Stan Van Gundy was saying in the game in Orlando when Magic went up by 41, they were running and they were crushing the Cavs.  Still only 79 points by the Cavs, big deal they are not impressive.

Detroit has no point guard.......but everyone should note how the physical play by Detroit made a big difference for them......R Wallace did his usual disappearing act....hot one game, gone the next 6......flat-spot-oddball..!

yes, their bigs are ridiculously slow and they run their offense through lebron in the halfcourt.  that is why atl could give them problems should they get by mia.

Both Miami and Atlanta should be tough opponents for the Cavs. Regardless if they sweep or not, I expect many close physical games.

In the three games so far, the Pistons have shot 40 free throws to 100 for the Cavs.  Lebron has a total of 2 fouls in the 3 games.  Something is fishy there.

Normally I would smell something myself, but the Pistons have been playing lackadaisically... taking too many jumpers.
