that was such a typical Cleveland ending.

yep. they always find a way to lose in the end. typical cleveland

Holy shit, they had soooo many chances to tie it but they couldnt get a freakin rebound if their life depended on it. Then Cavs had a timeout but James didnt call it instead he tried to do something, whatever the hell he was trying to do it wasnt the right thing. Then Billups almost put in the ball for the Cavs, that would've been a heartbreaker for him.

You Cleveland fans disgust me!! How can you possibly knock your team? First off, they haven't lost the series yet. Second, even if they do they put up one hell of a fight against arguably the best team in basketball! You seriously have to give your team props, win or lose!

Also, every team has to take its knocks on the way to the top. I remember the Bad Boys days with the painful losses to Boston and the Lakers the years before they won the title twice. Or, before this group won their title, they got smacked down a few times in the Eastern Conf Finals before rising to the top.

Clevelad is on its way to big things... you can just feel that they're one of those teams that are rising fast. While I don't see any chance that they'll make it to the top this year, I do NOT think it won't be long until they do...

Both teams tried to blow it at the end... Detroit missed 3 of 4 free throws and tried to tip the ball in at the end for Cleveland. Detroit still doesn't look like their old self... I'd like to think it is just Cleveland's Defense, but I've never seen Detroit throw so many lazy passes or turn the ball over this much. I keep thinking one of these games they are going to break out and just stomp Cleveland.... I hope that is game 7. These close games are not good for my nerves!

CAVS FUCKED IT UP!! It's fucking over now.

cleveland teams are good at that. getting our hopes up by playing so well for a while, then completely and utterly fumbling it all away. you'd have to be a cleveland fan to understand. and there's no way in hell the cavs win 2 straight in detroit.

Well, either team could cry that they fumbled it away when they lose this one. It's one of those series where you feel bad that one team has to lose. Cleveland won 3 VERY close games in a row, the fact that they lost one is just the law of averages. When you a lose a 2 point game you can point to any one of a number of plays to try to say they blew it, but either team can play that game.

Cleveland fans need to be on Prozzak, you're emotions run so extreme. Take a page from my book.. you'll notice I react just about the same here win or lose. Sure I'm disappointed when they lose, or happy when they win, but if you let yourself go to extremes you'll go insane.

Oh, and San Antonio will win tonight... I think we're going to see both SA and Detroit pull out their respective series!

Did I call this, or what???

When SA was down 3-1, I said it was far from over. When Detroit was down 3-2, I said it was far from over.

Now we have 2 game 7's on each of their home floors! Damn, I'm good.

Someone in here said he liked the Spurs because they are such a cool team who don't complain. Ridiculous. They get awarded 34-20 field goals and were whining from the first second to the last. Yeah, what a classy team...

What are you talking about? Spurs are one of the most cool and relaxed teams in the league, they just dont blow up and they dont have big egos either. Hell Horry and Keith Van Horn collided into each other and Horry instead of running straight back on D, he helps Van Horn up to make sure he's okay.

Duncan had the whiner face the whole game, as did Bowen. And Popovich was standing next to the ump all the time and complaining when his guys got in foul trouble.

All coaches and teams cry about foul calls, there is no such thing as a team that doesn't do that. However, I think people think of the Spurs as classy because they don't have any large egos on their team, and rarely participate in trash talking. They play well as a team and seem to have a great work ethic and remain very composed whether they are winning or losing. Of course, this is why some people see them as boring too.

When you get three fouls just like that and you have to have limited minutes because of it in a extremely important game ofcourse you're gonna complain a bit.

Another example of them being relaxed and calm is when Finley got hit in the jewels by Terry, he should've knocked his teeth out but he didnt do nothing.

Interesting... so what did he do?

Oh im sorry, ANYTHING. Im soooo glad you're on my ass about my vocab, i'll make sure not to screw dem thangs up nexx time cuz i b kowin u on my ass bout it.

Too bad: Looks like Detroit is coming through. This exciting play-offs slowly take a turn into the boring direction

I think I'm totally going to game 4 if the Pistons win.

Hughes is bad luck.

I think Hunter is just good luck. And I'm going to game 4!

Hot damn! But, why can't the Pistons ever do anything the easy way???? Now it's onto the Heat where the Pistons - who are running on all cylinders now - should win in 6 games.

Anyhow, hats of to the Cavs... they put up a damn good fight, and them getting a taste of the playoffs and being so close to victory will only make them stronger. I think we're going to see a great Pistons vs. Cavs rivalry for years to come.

Lucky bastard, take me with you!

If it goes to game 7, I might be able to get some tickets and go, but I hope it's over in 4.

Now Spurs just need to beat Mavs and everything will be right with the world. Pistons are gonna have a tremendously harder time then Spurs/Mavs in the next round. Heat have had a nice rest ( maybe a bit too much of a rest ) and Pistons just came out of a hard fought battle. Spurs/Mavs are gonna have to play a Suns/Clippers team that also have been having a bitch of a time this round.

The winner of the Spurs/Mavs should have a cakewalk against the winner of the Suns/Clipper series. It's going to be anti-climatic in the West, as it is obvious we're watching the WCF right now. I can't wait until they change the seeding rule. Anyhow, there is no doubt in my mind the Spurs will win... I never bet against the home team in a game 7.

As for the Pistons... Historically, they have never shown problems with getting out of a hard fought series and playing well the next. In the end it may have been good for the Pistons to get tested and get back in the swing of playoff basketball. If they had coasted by Cleveland then they may have had more trouble adjusting to the Heat. My only concern is that I'm hoping the Pistons lapse against the Cavs was because Cleveland really kicked it into high gear, and not because they sucked themselves. At times I got the impression the Pistons were just not clicking...

I really really want it to be over in 4. I'd love to be there when they win. It would be so much fun being a lone Pistons fan at AA Arena the night they win.
