Cleveland Cavaliers or San Antonio Spurs for the finals?

Question

Cavs for the first time ever is my guess that they'll win.

Answer 1

Cleveland in 6. The Cavs shut down the Spurs just like they did going 2-0 in the regular season against them. While the Spurs are a better team in the playoffs than they are in the regular season the Cavs are a much better team than they were at the beginning of the season or even just a couple of weeks ago.

Answer 2

The Cavs have Lebron James. He's a great player. He's been double teamed, triple teamed, just about everything, and he still hasn't been able to be stopped. I don't see the Spurs having an answer for him either.

The Cavs have Larry Hughes. He can put up points when he needs to. He's a great guard, and he's also very fast.

Daniel Gibson explodes off the bench. He's also got that three-pointer down, so if the Cavs need points, he can score.

The Cavs also have great great young players in Pavlovic and Gooden, and a leader with a lot of experience in Eric Snow.

I just don't think that the Cavs will be able to upset the [insert team here]. Plus, the [insert team here] have been here before. They have experience, Cleveland doesn't.

---Any of this look familiar? Its gonna be an interesting series. The Spurs have yet to face a defensive team in the playoffs, it'll be interesting to see how they perform in a defensive showdown. The Cavs just proved what they can do against another great defense in the Pistons. This series is going to be a close fought battle, and even in the event of a Spurs sweep, the games will be decided by 5 points or less.

Answer 3

Good guess, but not probable, and here's why:

The Spurs have Tim Duncan. He's a great low-post player. He's been double teamed, triple teamed, just about everything, and he still hasn't been able to be stopped. I don't see the Cavs having an answer for him either.

The Spurs have Tony Parker. He can put up points when he needs to. He's a great guard, and he's also very fast.

Manu Ginobili explodes off the bench. He's also got that three-pointer down, so if the Spurs need points, he can score.

The Spurs also have great players in Bowen, Finley, Oberto, and Horry.

I just don't think that the Cavs will be able to upset the Spurs. Plus, the Spurs have been here before. They have experience, Cleveland doesn't.

Answer 4

Spurs in 5 games

You answered your own question, since this is the CAVS first time in the big dance, they're gonna get taught a lesson.

I'll give the Cavs a fluke win after the Spours go up 3-0

Answer 5

i think CAVS are going to win the first game but lose the next two and then win one and then lose the next two...but i hope i am wrong because i am one of the biggest cavs fans...i love the cavs but im not sure if they have what it takes to beat the Spurs...i think the series will be won by the spurs in six games (hopefully not though)!

Answer 6

it's too close too call. the spurs never lost an NBA Finals series while the cavs reached the finals for the first time.but the Cavs won all their meetings against the spurs.

Answer 7

well.. its really hard to say because there both really good teams to make it this far... but of course its no surprise that the spurs are here. but its quite an accomplishment that the cavs made it. im goin for the under dog here and rootin for the cavs.

Answer 8

the cavs have had success versus the spurs this year. i predict another golden state vs dallas upset.

Answer 9

I think so too, they are great match up for the spurs. This will be a very tough series.

Answer 10

CAVS ALL THEY WAY-------------->>>>>>
