That they're not in the (L)eastern conference anymore and that the spurs are the first real quality opponent they met in the playoffs so far.
Wizards were without Butler and Arenas but it wasn't the cavs fault that those two were missing games but the cavs should've asbsoultely manhandled them instead of struggling to beat them in eveyr game in that series to eventually beat them.
A severely flawd team like New Jersey without their big man Nenad kristic (yes he would've made huge difference). Lebron and the cavs did just enough to seal the deal in the series.
Kudos to Lebron AND the cavs (Gibson, gooden, Z, varjeao) to push the pistons and win the series. looking at lebron's performance (other than game 5), the cavs wuldn't have made it outta that series WITHOUT DANIEL GIBSON
James is only 22 and the other cavs have a long way to go....cavs are just too flawed and too young to compete at a high level and maintain it enough to win a series against the spurs
Spurs in 5

Daniel Gibson deserves a ton of credit....he stepped up last night and drilled some J's on his way to 16 points....he bailed Lebron out and caught a couploe of his airing passes...he even knocked down some shots from those bad passes.
He went one on one in the end and showed his creativity in scoring baskets.
just sad that his name isn't mentioned not even nearly as much as lebron and deserves as muc hcredit as King james

i meant eventually "sweep" the wizards

Yes, I would say they got a reality check...and so the the media, and the NBA, because he is grossly overhyped...and overrated, as the world saw last night...

Not really alot to adjust, there is nothing they can do different. Nothing to exploit to give them a chance. sorry, thats just the truth of it. one thing will change, the scores will be close in cleveland, but spurs will still come out with the win. This ain't detroit you Cavs fans, get used to it.

i respect the cavs a lot...they should be happy w/ beating detroit..i feel bad because i think the spurs will hurt the cavs....although i do believe the cavs will eventually be a really good team and eventually win a title....i just doubt it'll happen this year

shut up...
cavs knew it was coming... they know its ganna be hard... and they know they are up against the big bad wolf of the west... they know... so they didn't get a reality check... and as for me... i wont ever stop believing...
every expert... every NBA fan... is against the Cavs!
everyone... so its not a surprise you are too... but hey... the cavs want it more... and we'll take it because no one is going to give it to us...
LONG LIVE THE KING!
rise up!
go cavs!
everyone says spurs in 5... well at least you gave one win to the cavs... thanks!
yupp the cavs have to take it step at a time... if not this year... then next year...but this year sounds good for me!

i agree! If people are crazy about lebron because he's young, the should go numb about GIBSON for being 1 year younger than Lebron!

7 game series are about adjustments ... hard to say after one game
lets see what happens in game 2 and when the series moves to Cleveland ... allot can change
