Any fool could've told you that the Cleveland Cavaliers were going to be in the playoffs but winning the NBA title was a harder of a prediction to make. Perhaps they were never a favorite but it seems like they always had a shot with King James leading the way. King James, though, wasn't enough to get by the Boston Celtics and Rajon Rondo? They lost tonight to the Celtics, 94-85, and lose the series, 4-2. The Celtics will now face the Orlando Magic in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Now that King James and his team were eliminated, the big question must be asked: Will this effect King James and his free agency this off season? It also kicks off the fun debate on where King James will end up. New York is a possibility with the Knicks and maybe the Nets considering they have a new owner with a team that has potential and will be moving to Brooklyn in a few years. Chicago seems nice as well with Derrick Rose as their point guard. Then of course, he could stay in Cleveland where they already worship the ground he dunks over. Whoever wants James, is going to have to show that they want to win a title and that means getting some good support players. Basically you need some serious cap space to be a contender for King James.
P.S. Cleveland, start groveling at his feet and beg him to stay. Give him a key to the city, a spot on the city council, hell make him King of Cleveland. DO WHAT YOU MUST!!!
