IS A 3-1 DEFICIT POSSIBLE TO COME BACK FROM?

It's no deep dark secret. The Cleveland Cavaliers are in sincere trouble. Only 8 teams in the history of the NBA have recovered from a 3-1 deficit to win a seven game series. Last night, the Cavs played their hearts out and still found themselves @ the short end of the stick, 116-114.

LeBron scored 44 points, the 3rd time he's scored 40 this series, and they still lost. Mo Williams put in 18 points. LeBron actually got a little bit of help. The Cavs went to the small line-up, playing Daniel Gibson, Delonte West, Mo Williams and LeBron James at the same time. Did it matter? It seemed to work some in the first half, but Rafer "Skip to My Lou" Alston scored seven straight points (18 in the 3rd quarter) and single handedly kept the Magic in the game.

I don't know what to tell Cavs fans, players, etc. They are indeed in serious trouble now. Even with LeBron James on their team. The question now is who do you blame? Do you really blame LeBron James, a man who has scored 40 points, three times. Do you blame the role players, Mike Brown or is it possible the Orlando Magic are just a better team than the Cavs. I hate to say it, Cavs fans, but it seem like an inevitable truth. Time will tell.. GO CAVS

ALL HAIL
