How about Big Baby hitting a game winning baseline jumper for the Celtics, this for me will be the highlight of this series, regardless of what else happens.

Lakers performance in Game 4 was disgusting. I wish Fisher could have been banned for the whole series, he is being abused by Brooks every game. The more i watch us play, the more i'm convinced we won't win this year. I could very well see a Denver - Cleveland Finals.

I think the Denver is a better fit for the Lakers as they play a similar up-tempo style. Not saying LA will win, but i think it will certainly be a high scoring series. If Jameer Nelson was fit i would back Orlando but without him, i can see Cleveland taking it in 6.

I though Game 1 of the WCF was a really good one, with both teams both displaying great offense, and at times, great defense. Easily jumped out of my couch when Ariza made that steal of the Denver inbounds. Highlight of the game had to be Melo's clash with Kobe on both offense and defense. I think Melo got a slight edge on Kobe, even though the Lakers won. Sets up what should be a really interesting series.

saw game 1 and it was a good game, both teams playing well at times and big games by Melo and Kobe, shaping up as a tough series but i think the Lakers will come out on top

Has been for a while. He's no D-wade mind you, but he's not far off. Suprised the Magic took game 1, will be interested to see how the Cavs fare in a competitive playoff series.

Game 2 of the Cavs v Magic just finished and I have to say it was the most amazing end to a game I have ever seen. Epic final 3 minutes

Bloody James, nails a 3pt on the buzzer to win game 2 against the Magic, Magic unlucky not to be up 2-0. Come on Lakers though, please start playing for 48mins and put the Nuggets away

Easily one of the most amazing finish to any sporting final I have ever seen!!

Still coming to terms with the stress of it. Pharking awesome.

I can't believe they didn't show one replay, cutting to the Netball straight away was cruel and unusual punishment on Ten HD's behalf.

I hope Magic win it. Dwight Howard is a beast.

That was epic from James, going down 0-2 would have been near fatal. The way the Lakers are currently playing, i would be quite surprised if they made the Finals. Imo the refs are killing the WCF, and not just for one team in particular. There have been some woeful calls for boths sides.

Can i just say that i LOVE this Denver-LA series. Both teams can really turn it on on offense. Whether you love him or hate him, you gotta admire what Kobe is doing this series. To be honest I don't think he has much left in the tank and yet is giving everything to ensure his team does not lose this series. I think even he knows after last year that his window is rapidly closing.

LBJ will be the GOAT by the time he's finished

It will be very hard for Lebron to be widely acclaimed as the GOAT, regardless of how much greatness he achieves. Even though i think he has the tools to be one of the, if not the, best player of all time, he won't be able to match Jordan's legacy, no matter how hard ESPN tries. In saying that, if there was to be one guy to do it, James would be the closest.

Nene needs to stay out of foul trouble. Billups is a monster. Denver will still take this series.
