What a night....what a wild ride to the Eastern Finals....congrats to every fan, who has stuck it through the tough times...it really reminds me so much of the Pistons years of the mid-late '80's, building from obscurity with a mega star, as they had with Isiah Thomas...

Tonight, LeBron started it, andDonyell Marshall helped finish it...Another hurdle cleared, another building block for King James and this franchise...

I loved how he attacked in Game-6, and how he demanded the ball on the block....This will truly be the next phase of LB's game...and I'd love to see him do the same thing at the Palace...

The guys were happy in the lockeroom, but nothing giddy, just satisfaction of knowing they are good enough to be a Final-4 team, and here they are....

But why stop now...the pressure will be on the guys up north, because no one will be giving the Cavs a chance..They can go there and play loose....

Enjoy the moment Cleveland...you've earned it!!!

I expect Cleveland to run all over Detroit this year and take it all. Cleveland is a better team, has better players and more stars. They are destined. It doesn't matter about them going back and fourth all year in their 1st and 2nd place standings in their division. Cleveland is just better and will run all over Detroit. But enough about the Indians and Tigers.

The Pistons are tough but last year the Cavs gave them all they could handle. This year the Pistons are without any spectacular players including Wallace. The Cavs are more experienced and more hungry than they were last year. The Pistons, although have played great all year, won't beat the Cavs this year. The Cavs have a great defense which is all that the NBA playoffs seem to be about anymore. I expect the Cavs to be able to win on the road. They took two in Washington and two in New Jersey. And although the four road wins were against only the Wizards and the Nets, they were still four road wins in the NBA at playoff time. Cavs in 6.

I disagree. Unlike last year, there are no locker room distraction in Detroit. Their team defense is much better then last year, and their bench production is better as well. For Cleveland to win, they must shoot lights out. Detroit will get their 80-90 a game. The Cavs have a chance, but it won't be easy, especially with two desperate players in Dyess and Webber.
