ECF- Cavs vs. Raptors - Cavs Win 4-2

[Adam]

I went with the raps as they will be easierbut I get the poetry of finally closing the door on the heatles with an absolute drumming. Either way both point guards are not super quick so our defense should cope better. We just beat a very food hawks team who would beat either other 2 in 7 games

Let's not get too complacent -- look at this surprising stat from ESPN:

"teams that sweep the first two rounds don't have a great history. Of the four others to do so since the first round went to seven games in 2003, each of them lost in the conference finals."​

I want no business with Dwayne Wade right now, his old man midrange game works against anything and he's one of the few SGs with the strength to overpower JR and Shump.

Yup agreed. I have zero desire for Heat. None. Too many variables of uncertainty there. Raps please.

Bring on the Heat. Seriously, don't kid yourselves. We're a far superior team than they are and are playing at the top of our game. If Whiteside is injured, it'll be another sweep. But even if Miami is fully healthy, we will win in 5 games tops.

This is the best Cavs team ever assembled. No need to fear anyone, we're title bound.

The Cavs facing the Heat on the biggest stage of the East would be the greatest agenda win ever, especially if the Cavs sweep. I will be insufferable everywhere on the Internet. adding comments to every Youtube video where LeBron fans who bailed from the Cavs to big up Miami and shit on Cleveland, going on every Facebook page, and Internet forum (I'll even create logins).

But either way, Cavs are winning. For either of these teams to beat the Cavs, it will have to be "NyQuil Night At The Q".

You fuckers fearing Miami are starting to make me want them specifically just so I can say "Told you so" after Cavs get in that ass.

Something needs to be done about these damn polls/voter visibility...this is unacceptable

Whiteside is wearing a knee brace, and a walking boot according to reports. That would lead me to believe it is more serious than just a sprain.

I can guarantee Lowry is going to have a field day now. He won't be soiling himself near the rim with Whiteside being out.

The Heat are in a world of hurt shorthanded. They fumbled away HC in game 3 and now have to play Amare or Haslam extended minutes.

Oh and you can be damn sure Whiteside isn't playing on a knee that isn't less than 100%. He has a $100 million dollar payday coming. I doubt we see him again.....and I wouldn't blame him.

Tonight's Heat-Raptors game could be big for us, because if the Heat manage to win tonight, it guarantees that the winner of that series will be playing us on just 1 day rest after finishing that series. We'll have the rest advantage as well as more time to gameplan against our opponent than they will.

Personally I think it's better for us to have a week off and another 3 day break between games 2 and 3, than 9 days off followed by non-stop games every other day.

Lol...c'mon, man. Weren't you one of the posters carrying the torch saying the Cavs would lose in the 1st or 2nd round?

Those of us who would prefer to avoid Miami have very legitimate reasons. With that said, most of us don't think either team beats us more than once (I certainly don't).

 

[All4One1ForAll]

We'll win either way, but I'd rather face Toronto, just because the media frenzy will be unbearable during a Cavs-Heat matchup.

Neither team gets more than 1 game against us though.

 

[Huber.]

I can do without the Lebron and Wade pregame hugs and post game tugs. Give me Toronot.

I said I didn't feel we were a LOCK to make the FINALS like I felt last year going in. But here they are now, playing better than they ever have (well, maybe not defensively), with everyone healthy. These fools really did "turn it on" once the playoffs rolled. Will that be enough to knock out the giant out West? I dunno but REALLY "avoid" MIAMI? The Cavs ARE the danger in this scenario.

You were worried about the cavs making the ECF? Excuse me while I LMAO.

I could understand worrying about making the finals, but the ECF? LOL

Yeah I meant the Finals. Typing one thing thinking another. Bowing out before the ECF is absurd when you sound it out and you can quote me on that.
