It's All Over!

Bring on the devils.
amazing 4-0 for Playoffs Over Time.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

w00t Devils are still in this!!!

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

I am kinda worried about the Clippers coming back in the Clippers- Suns series.
I am saying the Mavs in 6 or 7.
I am really happy that the Cavaliers got a win in. However I say Detroit in 5.
The Heat NJ series is going ot be tough for me to gauge since the Heat play so sporacially and I have watched the Nets very little. However from what I have seen, I am thinking 7 games, Heat.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

Well, the sweep just went bye-bye. Here's hoping you're soon 0 for 3, but I doubt it.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

Pistons don't sweep.
They never do.
I have no idea why,
But they just dont.
haha

You Michiganites just keep on making those bold predictions, especially 'sheed, who can take his Size 17 or whatever shoe and jam it firmly into his mouth for the next few days.

I LOVE it.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

:D :ahh: :p :)

Let's hope the Cavs keep their heads level and their mouths shut heading into Game 6.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

Yeah, Cavs are beasting this series. I believe that the announcers were right when they said that the Pistons are trying to outscore teh Cavs vs. playing their typical unstoppable defense and thn shooting decently.
This mavs and spurs game is ridiculous right now. As much as I hate to say it, Duncan is playing better than I have ever seen him paly. He just hit his 12th consecutive shot and hasnt missed today.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

It's over. Good luck to the Pistons against Miami.

The Cavs have been getting lucky as heck - blowing too many easy layups and such for several games now. It finally bit them tonight. They are a Cleveland team so they will lose after making their fans feel like they were on the brink of something truly great, of course. It's a tradition unlike any other.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

Hey, dont hurt your ankles jumping off the banwagon haha.

just like last year in the finals with the spurs, the cavs had two games to win one.
there is still a game 7 remember.
im not saying that the pistons will win or lose, but there is a chance that the cavs could move on, the the pistons played like they did last night and the past 3 games.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

I was never on the poser bandwagon to begin with. I've been a Cavs fan since 1992 (Price, Daugherty, Nance, Ehlo, Hot Rod - the good old days); just one with less than stellar expectations. I expected 2 wins at most in this series. 3 in a row was a pleasant surprise. 4 wins in a row against the Pistons - fate is not that kind to this city. I haven't put full effort into "believing" in any Cleveland team since the 1997 World Series. That one hurt....a lot. A Cleveland team has to earn it all before I'll ever set my expectations and emotions that high again. Until then, I will always be reserved in my passion for supporting a Cleveland team - and I've got 42 years of evidence on my side to back me up (1964 - last time a Cleveland team won a Championship). Last year's Indians almost got me doing it again, but not quite. Good thing I came to my senses, too, considering the typical last minute "Cleveland Collapse" that occurred.

Regardless of the outcome of Game 7, the Cavs showed the NBA that the Pistons are vulnerable (and periodically whiny under pressure). This series played with their minds. I enjoyed watching the Cavs because they play great as a team and LeBron makes everyone around him better with his unselfish play. I look forward to seeing what happens.....next year. One mini-miracle would be achieved if LeBron resigns with the team this summer. If that is the result of all of this unexpected success in the 2006 playoffs, then I suppose that's winning a mini-Championship of sorts. I'll gladly take that.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

I totaly agree.
The Cavs showed that next year, 2 years, 3 years, they will be the team to beat in the east like Detroit is now.
They showed great potential.
They are like the Pistons 5 years ago when they just started getting good.
And their coach is a rookie, think what he will do when he gets a few more years under his belt.
They will be good next year, maybe even go to the confrence finals...if they dont play the Pistons haha.

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

a few points
As much as I love the Pistons they are very whiny. :o
The Cav's should name the arena the Lebron James Fieldhouse to make sure he stays. :D
The Cavs will sign Larry Brown to coach this team. :confused:
Ben Wallace is leaving the Pistons for more money. :(

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

larry brown will not be the coach of the cavs next year because of the coach they have now will saty.
and ben wallace will be traded for better payers next year :D

Re: Official 2006 NHL and NBA Playoff Thread
 

LB brought the championship to Mo-Town. And how about this Ben Wallace for KG, sound good to you.
