EA SPORTS NBA LIVE 07 SIMULATION PREDICTS SPURS WILL WIN 2007 NBA FINALS
LeBron James and the upstart Cleveland Cavaliers gave the veteran-laden San Antonio Spurs all they could handle in the EA SPORTS NBA LIVE 07 simulation of the 2007 NBA Finals. Ultimately, the Spurs, led by series MVP Tim Duncan prevailed in six games to win their 4th NBA championship in nine years. The Cavs kept it tight with 5 of the 6 games coming down to the final minutes, but championship teams like the Spurs separate themselves from the pack when the game is on the line. The NBA Finals tip off this Thursday at 9PM EST on ABC.

Huge effort from the floor with 6 of LeBron’s 11 assists coming in the final 10 minutes, clutch shots from Sasha Pavlovic, and big dunks from Drew Gooden and Anderson Varejao.
------------
Game Four
Spurs answer in 102-89 victory over Cavs

Manu Ginobili - 29 Points, 8 Rebounds, 7 Assists
Drew Gooden - 20 Points, 11 Rebounds, 2 Steals

Recap - The Spurs responded in game 4 by bottling up LeBron (19 points on 6-22 shooting), and spreading out the floor to counteract Cleveland’s defense. The entire Spurs unit played well (50% FG%) and was paced by Manu Ginobili’s 29 points and 8 rebounds.
-----------------
Game Five
Cavs stay alive in game 5, 93-91
Point Leaders

Recap - The Cavs keep the dream alive, winning game 5 on home soil. LeBron continued his supremacy and was just a rebound shy of another triple double (30 points, 9 rebounds, 11 assists). His supporting cast responded as well, with a double-double from Drew Gooden (11 points, 10 rebounds) and 19 points from Larry Hughes. Big Shot Bob Horry missed a potential game-winner at the buzzer, sending the Spurs back home to San Antonio with serious concern of the series reaching a Game 7.
------------------------

Point Leaders
Tim Duncan - 26 Points, 11 Rebounds, 2 Blocks
LeBron James - 21 Points, 6 Rebounds, 7 Assists

Recap - The Spurs asserted their dominance again in Game 6, demonstrating overall team play that held LeBron to 21 points and thwarted Cleveland’s one-man show. The ultra-consistent Tim Duncan closed with a 26-point, 11-rebound performance, and was named the NBA Finals MVP for the 4th time in as many appearances.
