Duncan's such a beast. Nothing more needs to be said.

Cavs will have a difficult time cause they really have no true answer for Parker. Only 2 people who can guard him are LeBron and Snow, but Snow blows at offense. So really, it's only LeBron, but Parker is still a bit faster. With Bowen strapping down LeBron w/ timely double teams, Cavs will have an extremely tough series. If LeBron and Gibson take over the offense though, they still have a good chance imo.

I just really dont think the cavs have a strong enough offense to penetrate the Spurs D. They are simply too strong and they have huge amounts of finals experience.

I totally agree on the Parker factor though, that will be the difference this series. He is as fast as AI IMO. He can penetrate, take the foul and make the shot, seen it time after time. He's got a good jumper to. The Bowen/Lebron match up is one to watch this series, awesome!

Lebron only hit 4-16 and was limited to 14 points for the game, i think thats a credit to the Spurs D

The Cavs should give the ball to Gibson more, I think he will be part of the answer for the team. Cavs are a young team and they are streetballers, if you play basketball yourself you know what I am talking about. I think Pavlovic is going to be a great player some day, he's just very young and he's still a streetballer. LeBron just choked today, he didn't have a very confident look on his face.

But the Spurs are such an overall strong team. With Parker at point -- No one can stop Parker. Ginobili as the shooting guard -- Excellent player overall, he does very well everygame and today he was the bench for Bowen -- Probably the best 3 point shooter right now. Finley -- Meh, ok. Oberto -- Teh Suk. Duncan -- Unstoppable overall. The Spurs have a great starting five and their bench is very very strong.

I want the Cavs to win, but if the Spurs continue to ram their dick up Cav's ass like they did tonight, there is no hope for Cleveland.

From Nba.com

LeBron James finally scaled the big stage, and like a bunch of burly bouncers, the San Antonio Spurs tossed him off it.

Welcome to The NBA Finals, young fella.

James couldn't solve San Antonio's stifling defense and the pick-and-rolling Spurs, as fundamental and selfless as ever, outclassed Cleveland in an 85-76 victory in Game 1 on Thursday night.
Ouch!

By the way they just changed that Welcome to The NBA Finals, young fella from "A LeBrick, if you will"

Bowen has brutal defense, i think hes pretty underated.

Spurs to take the series in 5
