We've got three games left ...two of them at home where we'll be favored, and one on the road where we came a Delonte rebound away from stealing in a game we finally played more like the team we've come to know throughout this season.
It's not a huge stretch to see us winning the last three games.
I think game five is all ours. Our backs are against the wall and we have to get it, Orlando doesn't have that win at all costs minset, nor the home crowd.
We're winning game five, and we're going to be heading to Orlando for another shot at at them there and they can prove they are great by being able to beat us down there for five straight games.
Personally, I think we came into this series and have progressively played them better and better each game. Scores and home court advantages aside, this team has gradually brought the competitive level of this series from way in Orlando's favor in the first two games, and in the two losses in Orlando, we've actually gotten exponentially better, and more effective even though the scores both times fellk in their favor.
After game 2 of this series, my impression was that Orlando was clearly bettering us in five of the six key areas of the game. Now, in the two games in Orlando we've at least drawn competitively even, and at home I expect the leverage to swing strongly in our favor and we'll finally begin to see the benefits of the better looks at the basket we're gradually beginning to see on the offensive end.
With that, we'll see our shooting percentages rise, and that will translate positively on the defensive side.
At that point it comes down to game six in Orlando. Where we'll find out then and there exactly what we've got in the Orlando Magic. Are they truly a great great team, or just a team that matches up well with us that has been inordinately hotter than they are shooting the ball in this series.
I've watched every game this team has played this year people, I know they aren't invincible.
I now truly believe that we can pull out game six in Orlando, and if and when we do that, it's over. Orlando will be a team in shock and with all the pressure in the world on them just like the Yankees in the Red Sox ALCS. It took an improbable comeback for the Sox to break the curse. Cleveland needs this to get over the hump
We simply don't get beat by Orlando in games 5 and 7 here in CLE. Won't happen. It's game six that is critical ...and I truly don't see this Orlando team beating us every game this year down in Orlando.
...we're winning this series. I can truly see us taking them these next three games. I'm not just being some optimistic homer that wants to blow the Cleveland horn. I truly see it happening.
In talking to number of people today ...many many people, and these are people in the game today, believe the Cavs have turned the corner just as I do. Orlando has only one direction to go, and that is down. Given that, we've played right even with them at their house, when we left a lot of points on the floor.
No, I'm not just dreaming a dream. I truly believe we are going on a three game roll starting Thursday.
WE'LL FINALLY GET IN THEIR HEADS AFTER GAME FIVE...
It's what legands are made of, folks. I truly believe this team is about to turn the tables on this team. Starting at home in game five, we're going to finally get this team figured out and put them right where they belong.
Mark it down ..I saw some things that I think show we're about to turn this series inside out.
We come out and take care of business like I truly believe we will this next game ...we're going to then head to Orlando and get the victory that we've earned down there.
After getting that win down there, then all the pressure shifts to Orlando's back, and at our place we come back in game seven and knock them out in seven games.
DON'T STOP BELIEVING PEOPLE. NOBODY HAS FOUR WINS YET. THE LAST WIN IS THE ONLY ONE THAT REALLY COUNTS PEOPLE ....JUST GAME SEVEN.
You happy bright nikes?
I'm sticking behind my team
I'm a true Cavalier fan ...
