For me, I want the Spurs to wrap this thing up ASAP. I don't want the Cavs to smell a lead in any of the games. I don't like Cleveland fans and for some reason I don't like Lebron. His commercials are annoying, he sets a new standard for athlete self-importance and he scowls at the camera.

Go Spurs.

Spurs in 4. cleveland may steal one but i doubt it. I am however a huge Lebron fan and have been since I first read an article about him in SI when he was a 9th grader. I have followed his career very closely. I am actually wearing a jersey right now that says LBJ23-KING on the front and James on the back.

Spurs won't sweep.

Spurs in 5 or 6.

I bought some Lebron Lightning Lemonade Bubblicious bubble gum for my little league teams today.

Who's going to contain Duncan or Parker? I was laughing last night watching Greg Anthony hyping up the Cavs as a serious threat and one of the best defensive teams in the league. I don't think the Cavs win a game though they may steal one if LeBron goes off like he did in game 5.

The fact that the Cavs are representing the Eastern Conference shows just how crappy that conference is.

LeBron is clearly one of the players that will be a force to be reckoned with in the NBA for years to come, but I suspect that this year will be looked at much like Shaq's first trip to the NBA finals.

I see the spurs sweeping this series. The Spurs will take that one role player guard for Cleveland and make him irrelevant...that is what they do. The spurs are better at almost every position, and Bowen will be able to frustrate LeBron enough to throw him off his game a little...even if Bowen can't completly keep up.

I simply don't understand how people dislike LeBron.

He scowls? That's all you have? I suppose he could run around the court smiling brightly all the time, but I get the feeling you don't do that when you play ball.

Hating an athlete isn't like hating an actual person. It's like hating a character in a novel. My hatred is exceptionally pure and completely contained within the parameters of the game.

I don't like him because he seems to have the Wizards number. And now that he has tasted the finals, I worry that my team, as well as other East teams won't sniff the finals for a while.
