Game 2 of the NBA Finals was quite dissapointing. I was having a hard time trying not to fall asleep in the first half. The Cavs were down by 28 at one point, might have been more but i was hardly watching. HAHA. Tony Parker scored 30, Manu Ginobili had 25 and Tim Duncan scored 23 for the Spurs and pretty much destroyed Cleveland until the last few minutes of the 4th quarter when Cleveland brought the lead down to as little as 9 but to no avail. San Antonio were just too confident and poised in this game to let the lead slip beyond that. They did everything they were supposed to and Cleveland had a real hard time just getting to the basket. Larry Hughes was a non-factor and LeBron was not on his game. Cleveland will not win this series playing the same way they played in the first 2 games. I predict San Antonio wins this series in 5 with the Cavs stealing one at home. The Spurs are just too good and too experienced to let this championship slip out of their fingers, they might as well get the rings already!
On a side note, there are alot of rumours flying around the NBA saying that Shawn Marion will be traded to the Boston Celtics for Theo Ratliff and the 5th pick in the upcoming NBA Draft. The Suns are apparently trying to dump Marion's contract and could easily pick up a Marion type player with the 5th pick in Corey Brewer out of Florida or Jeff Green out of Georgetown. Well, thats it for now.
Peace!
