    I predict Spurs in 5. I'm rooting for the Cavs as they're the underdogs but reality will set in quickly, I think.

    I wouldnt hold my breath on it. Different teams yes, exciting games... i doubt. Spurs game can be nauseating and the Cavs are no great team. The 1st 4 games on the Cavs-Pistons series were a brickfest. Some of the worst games i've seen in Conference finals. I wouldnt be surprise to see the Spurs sweep the series but i think they'll take it in 5. But who knows.

    Cleveland going to the finals is not that great of an achievement in the depleted East. It would be a funny exercice if we could exchange players just to see if the results were different. Would Kobe be able to lead this Cavs to the finals like LeBron did? And would Lebron make the Lakers go beyond the 1st round of the playoffs in the Western conference?

    I think we would see the same reality. It's not a player comparison (i'm really not the biggest fan of either, for different reasons), it's more the reality of both conferences right now.

    .

    The Eastern conference is the weaker of the two. (obviousment)
    However, I'm glad to see the Cavs make it to the big show.

    Cleavland needs a victory. It's been a long while-since the city
    has had a championship team; of any type.

    Explain your reasons for not liking Lebron as a player; I hear this
    often...and I don't "get" it.

    I dont remember saying i didnt like him as a player. He's an unbelievable talent. Athletically he's one of the best i have ever seen. He does some amazing things on court and he's a team player.

    But there's something about him that doesnt please me completely. I cant explain. It's not completely rational. Maybe it's just the aesthetics of his game. Some find it beautiful, i dont. Vive la diferance.

    He's so big that he doesn't do a lot of twisting moves.

    He also doesn't have a great jumper and when he shoots, it's that weird over head shot.

    Lebron James is not so good in outside jumper compare to Kobe.. The thing i like most from Lebron is his speed... with that size and height he can over run any opponents....

    People say they don't like Lebron are the people that are a big fan of Michael Jordan...IMO

    Clumsy? I can think of many words to describe Lebron's play but clumsy ain't one of them. Yes maybe his J isn't as fluid as Kobe's but it sure as hell still gets the job done.

    Besides, whatever quirks he still has on his game, he'll have plenty of time to work on it as he's probably got close to 2 decades worth of playtime in him. He sure earned a ton of respect from me and a lot of people because of this recent series with the Pistons.

    I want L.J to tear down the Spurs and leave us all saying..."what the fuck did I just see??????

    Anyone else for that...
