Re: Wizards vs. Cavaliers Playoff thread
I don't blame him for following his other favorite teams. It's hard not to when your team is without its two All-Stars and had only won 2 of the last 10. But I think I'll stick with the Wiz.
I expect nothing but a sweep for the Cavs. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the games was semi-close. We are a gritty team now and it has came down to the end against a lot of teams.

Re: Wizards vs. Cavaliers Playoff thread
Wizards may keep a few games close in DC other than that this series is an early rap. Warriors is the only other team in the playoffs I would dare to cheer for other than the Wizards, just glad they made it over the Clippers. Very exciting team. Don't worry afireinside im still sinking right along with the Wizards.

Re: Wizards vs. Cavaliers Playoff thread
Other than that Chicago game, we've played every team close until the last minute or the last few minutes. If Antawn can get some help from the other guys, we could win 1 or 2 games.

Re: Wizards vs. Cavaliers Playoff thread
Antonio Daniels and Deshawn Stevenson will have to step up and help Antawn out because the Wizards are out-matched, but I could still see them take the series to six games with strong defense against LeBron and good shooting.

Re: East 1st round-Wizards vs. Cavaliers
I'm going to say Cavs in 6. They really can suck against crappy teams, it's quite amazing. I wouldn't be surprised to actually see them down a game or two in the series before turning it on to win.

Re: East 1st round-Wizards vs. Cavaliers
This shouldn't even be nationally televised. Show a rerun of the Miami/Chicago game in its place, then show this game on tape delay 1am.

Re: East 1st round-Wizards vs. Cavaliers
I can't imagine the Cavs don't sweep this. Cleveland has enough big men (mostly decent to good defenders) to keep Jamison (the Wizards' only legitimate scoring threat) nice and harried, and with Jeffries long gone and Butler recently gone, Washington really has no one to even pretend to slow Lebron down.
I expect the Wizards to play their guts out since they have nothing to lose and lots to prove, and hopefully a spirited effort will give them some kind of momentum going into next season. This is a great opportunity for guys like Blatche, Mason and Harvey to garner some national attention and cement their role on the team going forward by stepping up big, since someone has to in order to avoid complete embarrassment on national television.
This could even be exciting to watch...at times. But the hard truth is that the Wizards team that earned a spot in the playoffs is not the Wizards team that will play in the playoffs. Doesn't matter how inconsistent the Cavs are. They can virtually mail it in and still win in 6 games. If they actually try, this should be a sweep.
