    Spur fans talk alot of SMACK!, but let me be very BLUNT with you. Cleveland has no pressure on them. Lebron GOT us to the finals in a shorter time then expected. The CBA rules are set up for Cleveland and other young teams to be dynasty's and while we're here make no mistake about it, Duncan has a shorter window then Lebron. Soon he'll become slower and struggling to stay in shape.

    Even if Cleveland loses, which I doubt, they have LOTS of time to get back to the finals and like I said the CBA rules makes it more possible.

    Teams use to BUY championships, but that's NOT the case now. Teams with superstars have a better chance at retaining their star players. Take Orlando for instances, they have $10-$11 million to spend in the off season. The most they can offer a player is 5 years $70 Million. The most that players team can offer is 6 years $90. NO PLAYER is gonna turn down $15 million and while you may be pounding on your chest, your window of opportunity is NOT as wide as ours. Tim Duncans are a seldom breed and after he's gone or has slowed down it will be tougher for you guys to replace that.

    You have to win NOW!

    If you guys lose it will be a tragedy for not only the team, but the fans of San Antonio. Win or Lose, Cleveland has a bright future ahead of them with Miami getting older and Detroit having a big question mark along with age. Going to the finals and watching this team improve year to year has taken ALL kinds of pressure off of us. We have a good mixture of young players to go along with experienced players. The thing that I'm happy about most is, it's our young guys who have been instrumental in us going to the finals. The veterans have done their part, but they haven't had as near the affect of us going to the finals as the young guys (Varejao, Gibson, LbJ, Sasha, etc.).

    Before it's all said and done with, Lebron will have taken this team to waaaay more championships then DUNCAN has taken the Spe-rms to.

    All hail to the king

    There is a postulate that says that because LeBron and the Cavs may have a dynasty going by 2012, this retroactively makes them more formidable in 2007. The skill travels back in time.

    Yes, the Cavs losing uncompe ively to the Spurs would be very boring for you. Plus, once the game is out of hand, your mom might make you go to bed on time.

    TD had his in a shorter time than James.

    We know this, you can't claim a dynasty, or even a legacy before you have a trophy. You can't even claim it in 2, so spare your elitist talk for 3 years from now. Thank you drive through please.

    Yep, there's no pressure at all on the Cavs. It's only the NBA Finals.

    I actually think Lebron's putting a lot of pressure on himsel together with his teammates...They've never been here before and certainly don't feel relaxed or overconfident..Plus the media that brings all the hype surrounding the cav also puts a lot of pressure on them

    Has word of the Spurs 3 championships during this run not reached Cleveland fans? I'm not sure why the Spurs have pressure to win a championship when they've already won championships -- it's not as if losing this series will somehow erase the other 3 les won during the Duncan era. Of course, I want the Spurs to win, but I don't think this group's legacy as one of the NBA's great teams somehow turns on whether or not they win this series. 4-0 would be better than 3-1, but it's not like 3-1 sucks or anything.

    Tim Duncan doesn't scare me, Carlos Boooooooooooozer embarrassed the cat. He stuff the out of him and score on the other end. Duncan is "soft" and Lebron will get the boy fouled out!

    Carlos Boooooozer also knew enough to leave the franchise at his first opportunity.

The CBA rules are set up for Cleveland and other young teams to be dynasty's and while we're here make no mistake about it, Duncan has a shorter window then Lebron.

    Let's see... Duncan has 3 NBA CHampionship Trophys (soon to be 4), Duncan has 2 RS MVP trophys, Duncan has 3 Finals MVP Trophys.........And Lebron James has........

    NONE OF THE ABOVE.....

    Yet you are already talking SMACK yourself about a Cleveland Dynasty......

    Ever hear the names Wade, Anthony, Iverson, DWill, Boozer, Stoudamire, Nash, Howard?

    They may also give James a run in the future....

    Look, you guys have had a nice season and all, and should be grateful to have made it this far. But throwing around the word Dynasty, makes you look stupid when you have yet to actually win a trophy.
