Aside from the obvious fact that it's a finals game. Do you think winning or losing this game means more to them than to the Spurs? Or do you think it's just another game in the series?

To the first 2answerers, please read the question. I'm not talking about the series or asking for predictions. I'm only asking about this one game. I think it may be the most important game of the series for them and I'd like to know if anybody else feels the same way.

This is a huge game as far as the series goes. There is no-one other than the Cavs, and some crazy addict fans, that think they can win. If the Cavs pull an upset tonight, the series shifts to Cleveland, and everyone will have a different opinion. It will be like night and day. The Spurs D is rockin'. They make an offense fold quicker than a KMart deck chair. They play tough physical defense. I don't feel Cleveland can match there intensity. It was very obvious in the first game. If the Cavs can "get up", they can make it competitive, if not---2-0 heading back to Cleveland, and it's just a formality from there. Tonight is the Cavs season!

Wellllllllllllll...every game is important. If (I should probably say "when") the Cavs lose tonight, it'll be another nail in the coffin. It'll signify that the championship trophy is slipping out of their grasp. That could take a toll on their game, mentally. It could also mean that the Spurs will once again have to duck from crap being thrown at them from the opposing team's fans, but I'm just rambling. In short, I think that the Cavs are hungry for a win, but at the same time, so are the Spurs. The Spurs never mess around when it comes to the Championship Finals. It's sort of tied.
Like I care about the Cavs' mental well-being or their hunger for a championship. GO SPURS GO!!!

Definitely this game is important for both teams in different ways
The Cavs don't necessarily have to win the game but getting blown out will definitely not help build any confidence for the Cavs. If they still have a chance to win the game in the 4th Quarter I would take that as a good situation. Ideally the road team wants to steal one game of the first two but as long as the Cavs hold serve in games 3,4,5 then they will be in great shape.
For the Spurs I think its much more important. Even though they haven't shown signs of overall fatigue the Spurs are the oldest team in the league and they definitely don't want to give any hope to the Cavaliers. Home games always important for the home team to win.

If the Cavs win Game 2, they will probably win the series. If they lose by more than 8 points, Spurs will take it all unless someone does a D-Wade

Personally, I don't think this game is a must-win. They have 3 home games follow up. But I think it's important for the spurs to win this game so they can protect their home court.

Very important....Cavs have to see if the adjustments M. Brown will make works. Also their (Cavs) young and can't have added mental pressure from the loss or start second guessing themselves.

very important because mike brown has tried his hardest and made all the decisions he expects to work if they dont itll be very hard for him to find out what will work to beat the spurs.
