Simmons picked the Cavs tonight too.

I say let the experts ignore us. Makes it sweeter.
Really?

I'm definitely going to have to listen to his BS report to hear his reasoning. I was amazingly nervous and tense before and during the game.

Sportscenter's post game analysis:

Lebron, Lebron, Lebron, Cavs, Lebron, Lebron, Lebron, Lebron,

It's majorly peeving me off.  Where's the coverage about how the Celtics defense dominated?
Of course it annoys me too, but in ESPN's defense, this game may have just altered this decade if Lebron leaves.

LOL of course and when they finally start talking about us it's to discuss how old our team is.
Tommy: He's got a line about me. Tell him the line.

Mike: Everybody 60 or over knows Tommy as a player. Everybody 40 or over knows Tommy as a coach. Everybody 20 or over knows Tommy as a broadcaster. And everybody 10 or under thinks he's Shrek.

I wouldn't have minded the coverage if 1/2 was on all things Lebron, 1/4 was on Magic v. Celtics, and 1/4 was on the Celtics "miraculous" victory. I think that's a lot of leeway for the network.

But about 1 3/8 hours of the show was on all things Lebron, 1/16 on the Celtics/Magic, and 1/16 on Suns/Lakers.  I get that Lebron is a big story, but seriously?

He picked Cle in game 6, Bos in game 7.
