Big doing’s at the Garden in Boston later today. It’s the National Basketball Association’s LeBron James show, brought to you by your friendly (or maybe not so friendly) visitors from Cleveland. Boston put together an amazing 66-16 record this season, by far the best they’ve ever done. Brings back memories of the Robert Parish, Kevin McKale, Larry Bird era. But guess what, these aren’t the same Celtics that won so many NBA titles. This year’s version will see their season draw to a close this afternoon, courtesy of LeBron and his Cavalier teammates. LeBron is just too good to lose. Frankly I’m surprised that it went all the way to a game seven.  After winning in Boston today, next up for the Cavaliers will be Detroit. I like the Pistons, particularly Richard Hamilton. He looks imposing out there with his facemask. And it sure doesn’t slow him down—31 points in his final against Orlando. Detroit’s season record (59-23) is much better than Cleveland’s (45-37). But this is a new season and I give the nod to Cleveland.
