I lead, you follow.
In my mind I can see this; Both teams will be thinking about Boston in game 7 vs Atlanta.
It will be in the back of the Cavs minds, and I'm sure it will instill confidence in Boston as well.
Overall, the officiating could have been much better, but its nice to see Lebron getting his game back. 35 points in game 5, 32 tonight? ... not bad. Just a damn shame we couldn't have snagged the 1st one and ended this nightmare tonight.
p.s. I still hate KG

A win while shooting 33% from the field. Amazing. Thank God this team can play D. Regardless of the outcome of Game 7, if Ferry can't realize that they need to get a quality offensive assistant in here for Mr. Potatohead, then there's no hope for any championship ever.

LeBron needs to play his game the whole game in game 7 and not pull a dissapearing act after 1 or 2 good quarters

and if it stays that way for any longer than 1 more year, it would be cruel and unusual punishment not to trade LeBron.NFBuck;1164909; said:

No kidding. When you have one of the great offensive talents of all-time and routinely score less than 85 points, there is a very clear problem.jwinslow;1164911; said:

Dang...I figured this would happen. Friggin Celtics continue to play with fire due to their inability to win on the road in the playoffs. LeBron could pull a Jordan on them and steal game seven. Unlike most folks here, yours truly would be less than happy with that result. :p

Great win by the Cavs!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got a great feeling about game 7...The Celtics have to be real tired with 9 games in 18 days...
The only thing I hope for is a good officiated games...I don't want to be complaining about the refs after game 7...It needs to be won fair and square...No Bullshit...
As for LBJ taking a lot of foul shots tonight he was attacking the rim...Boston is known as a team that does not attack the rim...Thus the free throw shooting disparity...Same thing ATL did in the first round...

Well, when the team as a whole hacks LeBron every time he gets close to the paint that explains the free thow difference right there. Now just imagine if they actually call all the times LeBron is hacked and no foul is called. They actually showed a replay where he was being hugged while he shot the ball and there was no foul called.
Also, Boston is a jump shot team. Historically those type of teams ALWAYS are on the low end of the free throws. While Cleveland drives the basket on a regular basis. And when you have a good rebounding team sometimes a team gets frustrated and starts fouling (which is why Perkins & Big Baby racked up the fouls)
Just off the top of my head hasn't Boston been on the short end of the free throw stats in every game this playoffs?

But back to the game... BIG WIN! And now an epic Game 7. Does LeBron go crazy? Do the Cavs actually play the offensive style they should (LeBron in the post and feeding Z the ball?) And what kind of game does Rondo have. Cuz really... he is the key for Boston. If he can drive and dish and hit those floaters Boston just plays better.

We're going to have to keep it tight through out, it's pretty evident we have trouble playing with a lead.
