Ghosts of Wayne Fontes:
So, here we are back in the Eastern Conference Finals and opportunity is knocking on the door once again. Insert Cleveland. Yes, that's right…we want the Cavs in all their glory. We want the Cavs to dispel the bitterness of last season, to prove it was a fluke. To prove that we are still hungry, to prove that we can "flip the switch" and to close the door on an inferior opponent. And let's face it; the Pistons had ever opportunity to close the door on the Cavs last season.

Mike Brown can't be trusted with LeBron James' last two guaranteed seasons in Cleveland. He is a one-dimensional coach who has maxed out on his potential. No matter what happens in the Boston series, the experiment is over and the Cavs need to move in a different direction.

There's a well kept secret in Cleveland; he's stalking downtown with a zoom lens and an appetite for the visual. You've seen his work on And One before. That amazing shot of LeBron's dust ritual; C-Town sunsets; flying bikers.

The Toronto Raptors' excellent young point guard Jose Calderon, who is a restricted free agent, is making big waves as he has basically told the Raptors that if they don't promise him the starting PG spot, to not even bother trying to bring him back.

It was a good omen right from the start of this game as Perk won the tip although the first minute was sloppy on both sides with a 24 second violation on each team and a defensive 3 second violation on KG. The Cavs came out strong to begin the game rushing out to an 18-9 lead in the first 8 minutes. The Cavs held a 23-18 lead at the end of the first quarter. It seemed like more of...

Jameer Nelson continued his vicious streak of lies after a Game 5 loss with this statement:
"I didn't guarantee a win," [Nelson] said. "I didn't say, 'we're going to ?' I said 'we have to go win, we're going to come get this win.' And the media took it out of proportion or whatever they want to do. The media always wants a story....

Once again for the second series in a row, the Celtics will try to close out an opponent in a game 6 on the road. The Celtics have yet to win on the road in 5 tries and hopefully the 6th time is a charm. The momentum is in the Celtics favor as they are coming off of one of their best efforts in the playoff in game 5.
The Celtics can win on the road. They were the best...

This question has been brought up several times recently: Will Zydrunas Ilgauskas have his jersey retired when his career is over? I've always thought the question was interesting and worth looking into a little deeper.

Talk about a tale of two halves. The Cavs enjoyed a 14 point lead in the second quarter, only to see it disappear on consecutive big shots by Rajon Rondo. Still, the Cavs were in position to win this game but couldn't get it done in the third and fourth quarters.

The Celtics are once again up 3-2 in a playoff series. In the first series, the Celtics were expected to sweep the lowly Hawks and they appeared to be doing just that as they won the first two games at home by an average of 21 points. Then, they went on the road and inexplicably the Celtics went flat, allowing the Hawks to gain confidence and tie the game at 2 apiece. In Game 5,...

Well, the Pistons have finished off the Magic in 5 games. They won on the road and they did it without Chauncey Billups. That should concern the Celtics in that they haven't been able to get it done on the road in 5 tries at full strength. Another thing that is concerning is that the Pistons are now sitting back and resting while the Celtics are going to have to go at least 6 games...

Listen, I understand Lebron is fantastic! He is one of the top 5 players in the NBA, But after listening to his comments during last night's press conference, I don't know how you can cheer for a guy that only cares about himself. You may say it to your boys in private, but not publicly. I THOUGHT he was better than that.
