The blow out was something series, but you can bet that Aaron won't have another game like this again. It's like how Rose and BG had their game in the Celtic series. Entertaining, but not consistent.

The bigger concern is that Odom is out with back spasm, he's the one that picks up the points on missed shots for the Lakers. And I have no idea why Fisher is still getting that much time, he's too slow to keep up with Aaron. Farmar would be a superior choice.

Competition in the East isn't as intense as the West though. Coming into the Playoffs, sans the Lakers, #2-8 on the list for the West were really tight, all within several games of each other.

I'm a Cleveland fan (grew up in Akron) so I'm biased, but I'm not seeing anyone playing with as much tenacity and hunger for the championship as the Cavs are right now. Lebron is posting numbers that rival the greatest names that have ever played and he is shrugging it all off because they only have one goal. To win it all. Nothing else matters.

I want them to play the Celtics again, and I want them to play the Lakers in the Finals to silence any haters out there.

As much as I hated to admit it, the last few years you could tell the Cavs were playing above their level because of James, and he carried them father into the playoffs than they probably should have advanced. This year the team as a whole are playing like champions.

There are a lot of very good teams in contention. I just don't see them as hungry for the title as the Cavs are.

The Cavs is a unique team. For one, their tall ass center is good at shooting 3! That defies all logic that the center should stay in the paint. And this is a given, if need be, Lebron can basically play any position out there. It's such a non conventional team, IMO that's why it's hard to play D against them.

I think the Lakers let their guard down after hearing Yao is out.

And ROFL at Big Baby coming through today. Watch at around the 7 second mark where he knocks the kid down, haha.

The Bulls dynasty was something fierce. Besides the GOAT MJ with the super sidekick Scottie, they had Rodman who will dive for the ball even though they have a 20 pt lead. Not to forget Steve Kerr, Kukoc, etc. Wow!

Lebron just makes it so easy. Despite his size, his speed is lethal. You know when he drives in and slows down just a bit to make you think that he's going to settle for a jumper..that's when you get on your toes to jump and block, then he picks up speed while you're off balance and attacks the rim.

Lakers just overall had a bad game today. I'm in L.A., but I'm not really the biggest Lakers fan. The Lakers I liked included Eddie Jones and Vlade.

You can guarantee the Rockets game plan in game 5 won't revolve around Brooks like game 4. Although he wills till get the ball, he won't be carrying the team on his shoulders.

I still can't get over how text book the Artest-Brooks inbound pass was. And I had no clue Brooks had that big a vertical.

The refs did a great job in game 4, imo. They let a lot of things go on without calling 100 fouls/quarter. Even the commentators mentioned how nice it was to see the refs letting the game play itself out.

Even when the Lakers play like ass they started chatching up. they could have they're worst game and still not loose by much. Lakers will take it.
My Lakers flag was waving out my window even after the loss. haha I was looking for someone with a Rockets flag to race....

As a long time NBA fan, from what I've seen so far in the playoffs Cleveland is easily the class of the league. LA is a huge disappointment and is not going to win the title. Although the Cavaliers (whom I dislike as a Detroiter and Pistons fan) have played easy teams so far they are very intense and focused. Unless Garnett comes back for Boston which is unlikely, no one is even close to Cleveland this year. I just wish James would show more class. I'm very disappointed in his posturing and posing.

Thanks, Mike.
