    Why would Shaq even bother stepping out to defend Wallace at the three-point line? He's shooting under 30% out there.

    Cavs in 7, but rooting for Boston...KG, PP34 and Ray...gotta pull for a team with those guys.

    Home series here. CLE wins 1,2,5,7....BOS wins 3,4,6.

    Because they are shining examples of douchebaggery, dramatic injuries that last a quarter, or tweeting your sexual acts?

    Who are the top 5 players in this series?

    We all know Lebron is number 1. However, next 4 can easily be boston celtics players. Pierce, Allen, KG, Rondo. It's a team game!

    I hate both teams... i would rather have cavs win, but i just don't think cavs will be able to beat celts.

    Anyhow, this should be a awesome series; both because of matchups and the rivalry. Can't wait for it to start!!!

    Also a X-factor for C's will be 'Sheed Wallace, hard to predict him sometimes.

    Not really, you know he's gonna camp at the line and force a shot that will undoubtedly miss.

    lebron should have a field day with the celts, since they couldnt even stop wade.

    i expect the cavs to win in 6. lebron will lock down pierce, and ray ray is gonna suck this series. well, ray ray usually sucks in 1-2 series since he's been a celtic.

    they need kg to step up really bad if they want to win this series

    Tonight is the big night. I don't know what to expect. Boston looks great, but they did it against the Heat. All the old guys are healthy though so I expect to see more of the same.

    It will be interesting to see how all the match ups play out. Lebron and Pierce have had epic showdowns, Antawn vs KG, Mo vs Rondo. And hopefully Shaq can stay on the court and avoid foul trouble.

    Rockets fans need to root for Cavs to win it. Cavs win = Lebron less likely to head to NYC = Rockets more likely to have good draft picks.

    Celtics.


    The cavs are more athletic, but the Celtics are wise.

    Plus, you never know if Ray Allen goes off from the three-point line and drops 40. Paul Pierce can drop 30-40, and KG can still have monster games.

    On the Cavs, the main concern is Lebron. Jamison is a great asset but he isn't going to be the difference maker.

    I think the guy who will have a huge impact in the series is Sheed. This is his time.

    Lebron will have a great series, but the Cavs will need more to win. The one reason why I think Boston can win this series is because they will be playing with a chip on their shoulder. They always seen to player better when they have something to prove. I know they only beat a weak Heat team, but like Kenny said you cant fault them for who was put in front of them.

    I may rethink my prediction. The Celtics are looking healthier... and LeBron is still bothered by that elbow.
