Amazing Game


Today, I stayed home and watched game two of the Cleveland Cavaliers versus the Orlando Magic. The first half became a close and tedious battle between the eager clubs. The Cavaliers started the third quarter by leading in double digits; however, the Magic made a sensational comeback. At the fourth quarter, Hedo Turkoglu made a two-point field goal to give the Magic a hard-fought lead. At the timeout, I pondered if Lebron James would make a miracle clutch basket in comparison of Michael Jordan. With a second left in regulation, superstar Lebron James accomplished the most amazing moment in Cleveland Cavaliers history. Mo Williams inbounded the ball quickly to Lebron James (who was well guarded by would-be Magic hero Hedo Turkoglu) and made a three-point field goal to defeat the Orlando Magic. I yelled, "What the heck, wow!" in excitement.

It's only an even series, one to one, but I prefer Cleveland to win the Eastern Conference Championship. I want to see last year's most valuable player Kobe Bryant against this year's most valuable player Lebron James in a match for a championship and for bragging rights for the best player in the world. If the Denver Nuggets wins then I would enjoy seeing Carmelo Anthony against Lebron James in reminiscent of their high school championship days. If the Los Angelos Lakers and the Orlando Magic win then I would want to see Adam Morrison against J.J. Redick, even though they are benched. Overall in my opinion, in order for Lebron James to be compared to Michael Jordan then he would need to earn championships. I believe Lebron James has a chance to make it to the finals, but it's going to be a tough voyage against the Orlando Magic; the Denver Nuggets or the Los Angelos Lakers.
