The old guys ended up getting the job done. It seems as though they were fueled along the way and they weren't about to let the king take his throne. Perhaps the series changing game was game 4 when Rondo lit it up leaving the cavs speechless. After that game, Lebron was quoted for saying he needed to concentrate on Rondo the next game identifying him as their weapon to stop. What about Allen, Pierce, Garnett??? Aren't these all stars also offensive weapons that demand the same respect? They seemed to think so coming out in game 5 and showing Lebron and the world that Rondo wasn't the only player to be concerned with. Pierce had his best game in the playoffs in game 5 leaving Lebron and the cavs in a must win situation going into game 6. Lebron and the cavs kept it close much of the game but just couldn't keep up with the Celtics crisp passing and three point shooting. It seems as though the Celtics played a complete team game, whereas the cavs started falling apart leaning completely on Lebron. We all know that he's human and he showed us just that in game 5 and 6 with his shaky performance. He was quoted after the game saying he left his "options" open aka Lebron will probably be no more in cleveland. New york seems to be the place where he might end up but no one really knows. I just hope Lebron isn't the next Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, Shawn Kemp, Dominique Wilkins etc.... Great players but just never won a ship. Good luck King, we all know you don't need luck with sick skills like that.
