-- ## -- NOTES -- ## --

* Last game of the season, and we have been awarded a home game. One that matters to the last minute, anticipation of what seed we'll end up in the playoffs.

* A win won't guarantee us anything. The decision lies with New Jersey. If they win, we get the #2 seed and face Washington. If they lose, we're stuck in the 5th seed against Miami, but with homecourt. They'll be fighting, though, because Washington has a good chance of victory against Indiana, who has been knocked out. So they'll want to win and face Toronto in the first round, rather than lose and pin up against Chicago in a series right after losing to them.

-: lyXo's Keys to the Game :-

* The schmucks are out of contention for anything. I win will actually leave them with less balls... come June. But, their pride and dignity has been far lost this tulmultuous season.

* Simple strategy for these guys... beat them quick and easy, and don't let them think they can win. All their starters are injured and resting for next season. Mo Williams and Charlie Bell are threats, but they aren't enough to secure a victory against a real NBA team.

* Use the energy of the crowd, and don't disappoint. Regardless of the playoff seed outcome, the fans will be adored by a convincing win at the end of the season, and be pumped for the offseason. Be it Dwyane Wade or Antawn Jamison, the Cavs will be ready to dominate.

Cavs Win, 106-92

Charlotte bench?

I will be there, pumped and readily checking that Nets score.

Nets/Bulls game starts at 7:30. I fully expect them to put it up on the TV monitors throughout the Q immediately following the conclusion of the Cavaliers game. Hopefully it's a fun night all around. I'll be celebrating with some frosty brews if luck falls our way. :drink:

 

[Maximus]

I am doing everything in my power to get the 2nd seed....just dropped 300 on the Bulls.

 

[Mac]

I am really anxious...this is a crazy feeling. Not used to having this in Cleveland. But what I am used to is dissapointment, so Im not getting my hopes up with the Nets winning.

Does vCash work in Vegas?

 

[Kypus]

If I had time today, I would seriously make a Nets game thread. :idea:

 

[Maximus]

Does vCash work in Vegas?

Fortunately not....or I'd be down 500 with them too.:chuckles: I bet my last 25 vbucks on getting the 5th seed. Again, doing whatever I can to get us the 2nd seed.

That is going to be hard... But just think if you were homeless with one leg, one hand, and the other hand only had 3 fingers on it..

If the Cavs don't win tonight...I don't know what I'll do..

I don't care if they lose only if the Bulls win. It won't matter in the grand scheme. However, if we lose and the Bulls lose, I will throw my lamp into the backyard.

Hopefully we can go close to matching the Bucks efficiency!
