Lebron isn't a guy you want to play "can you top this" with.
I thought Orlando was up 2-0 and possibly on their way to a sweep.
Wish they'd stop giving away the 1st quarter. I'm impressed that they were even in the hunt after being down 20 points in the supposedly unwinnable Q...
If they lose this series, they sure gave it a hell of a good try.
Going to the game Sunday.

Lebron pulls it off in the last seconds. Last nights game was definitely a classic. This game could be the turning point in the series for the Cavs.

When the Magic had the ball with 14 seconds left, I told my wife this may be the series.
I hope I was wrong.

Trevor Ariza has just been huge for the Lakers. If it wasn't for him the Nuggets would have won.

Ariza seems to be in the right place at the right time...every time!!!

I deem the Denver/LA series must watch t.v. Every game is just so good.
Can Lebron get any help? And can the refs in that series for the love of god be more consistent! The zebras are making the series unwatchable. 80 some free throws last night. That is insane. Great game by the Magic, but why don't they let Pietrus play Lebron more? He clearly frustrates Lebron.

I gotta agree with you there.
Lame foul calls, all in favor of Cleveland. All ball at the end, and Howard fouls out.
No question in my mind who the better "team" is in the Orlando/Cleveland series.

Did Melo suddenly "choke up"?? What is wrong with him?

The officiating has been garbage. VanGundy had a great quote last night when asked about how to contain Lebron the rest of the game. He said 'We have to force him to shoot outside, when he puts in on the floor he gets foul calls everytime.' and he is about right. I am little tired of the "superstars" getting foul calls simply because the league deems it neccessary for them to get their stats.

Throwing up before the game.

Throwing up before the game = Denvers excuse to media for him playing like CRAP the last two games. The bench pulled this one out tonight.

J.R Smith finally had a big game and that was the key to the game. He even had some assists which is rare for him..
The thing that bugs me about last nights game is when Dahantay Jones tripped Kobe. That was intentional and I hope he gets suspended. You cannot do stuff like that.

I agree that JR finally woke up in a game and he did it at a great time. I just hope they can keep their energy going and go beat the Lakers at Staples tomorrow night. I hope JR found his shot and can give them the spark of the bench they need to finish this series and send the Lakers packing till next year.
As for Jones tripping Kobe, I disagree that it was 100% intentional... and if it was, Kobe has thrown quite a few elbows this series that didn't get called and didn't get disciplined later...as for Jones getting suspended, Kobe himself said it wasn't anything expect he tripped over his foot, so Idk how the league would do anything about it.
Now onto Melo... I have to disagree with ya kelmac07... Anthony never plays that bad unless he is legitimately sick... I know I have watched a TON of games and even his bad days are better than he played last night. I doubt it was a media ploy. Is he as consistent as Kobe? No. Is he as good a scorer as Kobe? Yes... but like I said he is a more streaky player.

Well, Mo Williams has guaranteed that the Cavs will win the series.
He also is betting a 5er that they will crush the Magic from here on out. (writer imbellishment)
:-)
Should be interesting and anything is possible. Orlando is quite capable of packing up early as they have proven many times in the past.
I'll never forget the 95 finals against Houston. Nick Anderson only needed to sink one free throw and missed 4 consecutive and they never got over it. Made Shaq look like a good free throw shooter.
Speaking of free throws, I am amazed that Lebron can hit a fade away 3 pointer with 1 second left and seems to struggle from the free throw line and missed around 40% in game 3's 4th quarter....

I think Kobe was being sarcastic. It definitely sounded that way...

He definitely was being sarcastic. He also said that he's a klutz, tripped over nothing and fell flat on his face. Hmmm........maybe an sweeping foot had something to do with it.
