Boston Versus Cleveland Preview
20secondtimeout.blogspot.com 5/6/2008 — The Boston-Cleveland series opener has the NBA stage all to itself tonight on TNT--and rightfully so, because the winner of this game will most likely also win this series, defeat the winner of the Detroit/Orlando series and go on to represent the East in the NBA Finals.

thestartingfive.net 5/7/2008 — Barkley on the Cleveland/Boston series: “I think (Cleveland vs. Boston) is going to be a very good series. It’s going to be a terrific series and I’m really looking forward to it. I still like the Celtics to win the series, but it can go either way because LeBron (James) is the best player on the floor. It’s going to come down to role players. Cleveland runs that horrible offense where they ...

Cleveland Cavaliers 72, Boston Celtics 76 : If this was an indication of what the rest of the series will look like, there won’t be many viewers. I watched this game — while thankfully playing online poker, or I’d've fallen asleep — through and through, and it was hardly any type of basketball spectacle. When you think “greatest athletes in the world,” ...

Boston Celtics 76 Cleveland Cavaliers 72 (Celtics lead series 1-0)
This one was not pretty. While Kevin Garnett scored 28 points, nobody else really did much. Paul Pierce had 4 points while making two of his fourteen shots. Ray Allen went scoreless, but in his defense, he only took four shots. LeBron at least hit double digits with 12 points, but eight of those came at the free throw

My Apologies To The City Of Cleveland — (Obsolete Feed)
After watching the Cleveland Cavaliers lose to the Boston Celtics tonight 76-72, all I came away from this was frustration. And I'm not a big Cleveland Cavaliers fan at all. I root for them in the playoffs to show my Ohio pride but that's about it. And if I'm frustrated, God help the actual Cleveland fan right now. Is this what you've had to endure all these years?
I'm from Cincinnati. A ...

Lebron Misses Another Late Game Layup, Boston Takes Game One — AwfulAnnouncing
If you didn't stay up and watch Game One between the Cavs and Celtics I don't blame you. I've watched just about every San Antonio Spurs game over the past 8 years, and none of them compared to how boring this game was until the last few minutes (actually even those were boring). Dick Stockton and Mike Fratello called it a "defensive war" multiple times during the contest, but people were just ...

If Boston defeats Cleveland in 5 games or less, I win. Any other result for that series and I lose. Pretty square and stupid bet huh?
Not exactly. I admit that if you had shown me a bet like this two years ago I would have immediately laughed and labeled you a sucker, but I am a lot smarter and open minded now then I ...

Will the Real Cavs and Celtics Please Stand Up? — 20 Second Timeout
The Boston Celtics won an NBA-best 66 regular season games and then almost lost in the first round to a 37 win Atlanta team. The Cleveland Cavaliers made it to the 2007 NBA Finals and then traded away half of their roster, with mixed results thus far. Do we really know who either of these teams are? In about two weeks, one of these teams will be playing in the Eastern Conference Finals and the ...

The series started out by Gilbert Arenas claiming that everyone wanted Cleveland in the first round. He was making the comment because the new pieces hadn’t yet clicked with the rest of the Cavaliers players. This would be the third straight time these two teams would be meeting in the playoffs and Arenas didn’t believe that Cleveland would send them home for a third straight ...
