Just watching the playoffs today gives us all the itch to get going tomorrow at 12:30...We'll be in full postseason mode with a beautiful day...Gateway Plaza jammed....does it get any better? Yep...Detroit coming here Memorial Day weekend!!!
In watching the game tapes from last year's series with the Wizards, no Arenas, no Butler is obvious...but keep in mind the Wiz also had Jared Jeffries to try and stop LeBron....he didn't have much success, as LB drove the basket, time after time...
One other difference is of course Sasha, who only played 6 post-season minutes last spring...think how far he has come....and in talking to him, he is ready to be a significant contributor....I've said since late January, Sasha is this team's x-factor...and when you consider, when Sasha, Larry and LeBron started together, the Cavs went 17-7...that's 71%...pro-rate that over an 82 game season and that's 58 wins....my point is, the Cavs are a different team than the Pistons saw last May...so, they have to believe they can get to the Finals...you can't do it until you believe it...and I really think they do..
Shannon Brown took the role of Jarvis Hayes on the scout team by the way, and showed a couple of sick finishes at the rim, with his athleticism...LeBron said Hayes is tough......but this "jump out of the gym guy" (meaning Shannon) is crazy...(I think Shannon will be heard from next season---he's too skilled not to be)
See you tomorrow on FSN...come join us at Gateway Plaza at 11:30...
