The Magic have won 11 of their last 15 games against the Cavs,  a winning percentage of .733.

But the Cavs have not lost three games in a row all season.

What will happen tonight in Cleveland? Orlando is an excellent road team... but the Cavs were 39-2 at home during the regular season.

How will game 5 go? Any predictions?

I say Lebron plays a great game, and the rest of the Cavs come to life for the first time all series, resulting in a 5 victory for the Cavs.

 
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

Cleveland will win tonight, and I think pretty easily.

This is a really tough one for Orlando.
Yup

Rashard Lewis says the Magic are not taking this game lightly.

So he's talking the talk.

But that's the easy part. It will be interesting to see how the Magic come out vs. how the Cavs come out. It will be interesting to see who each team goes to the most early.

Cavs are 6/7 from the field early and playing really, really active and high energy on offense and defense. Mo Williams with 10 early points--not a good sign for our those of us who are pro-Magic.

I expect Cleveland to win. I have to believe that LeBron will find a way to pull out a home win to extend this series.

It is 22 to 8 right now and Mo Williams is 4/4. Orlando is missing free throws and turning the ball over. This game looks like it could get ugly if Orlando doesn't rebound.

I feel like I've seen more missed dunks during these playoffs than ever before.

35-18 CLE right now at the end of the 1st.

Orlando is making a run, though! The lead is 9 after a 14-1 run by the Magic.

They've cut a 22 point lead to 4.  Impressive stuff.
