Rally! Rally! Hyah!
-Cavs don't have a playoff gear. They spent a lot of energy just to get home court. They have not paced themselves properly at all, whereas we've rested our guys well in preparation.
-Cavs still do not have the mental game it takes to win in the playoffs. Celtics fans should know how important the mental game is, only the Spurs might have a better mental game than us, and they are further along in their years.
-Cavs have had unbelievable home cooking this year. The idea that they are going to be in the record books with the 85-86 C's is just really stupid. It won't be more than 15 years before computers can analyze the footage and show how the refs targeted players, made momentum altering calls on purpose, ignored grabby grab defense, etc. Normally the NBA refs help the team that falls behind to keep games close, but when they want to annoint someone, they don't screw them when they get a lead. It's easy to play with lots of defensive hustle when the refs reward you so much. Most importantly of all, the league is really really scared of doing this in the playoffs. What they did to the C's last year was unprecedented; yet they still had to call the game 7s in a neutral way out of fear they'd hurt the league.
-the Cavs know they've gotten tons of help from the refs. Mentally, this undermines them. They know it means they are frauds which increases their mental weakness.
-Everybody tried hard to beat us this year and the refs tried to help them make every game a close one. Yet when the refs said 'screw you' to so many teams in the first quarter against the Cavs and Lakers, teams did what the C's did Sunday. They smelled bs and decided it wasn't worth more than going through the motions. Again, the refs think they are helping the Cavs and Lakers, but it makes them weaker and it makes the C's stronger. Because we have passed a lot of tough tests and they know they've been helped.
-The Cavs owe their home record to the C's record win streak. The refs etc hated the idea of this Celtics team being 'the best ever' so they 'took them down' and proceeded to pump up the Cavs home record.
-Lebron has never been clutch. He's still just a kid really. Pierce is a way better decision maker in crunch time. And all this year, Ray has been our life line. So we have at least two players who are more clutch than their best player. Kobe...nobody misses more clutch shots than Kobe.
-check 82games.com to see how much better our starting lineup is compared to theirs. It's WAY WAY BETTER than theirs. Anyone should have been able to see that by now, but if you are confused for some reason, look at those numbers.
-Rondo and Perkins leveled up big time this year. Ray Allen was under utilized all last year and this year is his most efficient season ever. Baby and Powe are better too. Pose was great, but he's just one guy. We were this close to having four legit all stars in our starting line up. No way does last year's team beat this year's team in a dream match up. It's not even close. This year's team is soooooo much better than last year's, anyone who has watched most of the games should know that.
-Marbury gives us another point guard who can run an offense, that's huge. Eddie House has been red hot since we got Marbury.
I could keep going, but why bother.
Lebron will never beat this C's team just as Jordan never really beat Larry's C's. Kobe will never win another ring. Jackson will never pass Red.
