Upcoming season opener

Hi,
I wonder what are prediction/thoughts for the Cle-Bos game?
Mine are:
for Cavs - (a)it's in Cleveland = mental pressure on Celtics, (b)Lebron will go out of his way to win
for Celtics - (a)absence of West, (b)Lebron will go out of his way to win
I hope Celtics will be able to exploit those.

Thank you very much,
AK

I was thinking from a previous thread that the consensus was that (a) the Cav's game is only one game and (b) that its a long season (c) as in marathon, not sprint and (d) its more important how you end the season than how you begin the season plus (e) the game is after all in Cleveland and (f) that neither team has probably jelled so who knows the real meaning of this game and (g) despite reasons (a thru f) the C's really, really , really should focus on putting the pedal to the metal and kicking the Cav's asses big time endline to endline, sideline to sideline, givng the Cavs no reason for hope, even if it turns out to be an ugly win, (Yes, we'll take it. Hey a win is a win) never letting up the entire season on the way to hanging banner #18.

Thats about it in a nutshell.

Anyone remember things differently?

Oh, yes.... I forgot (h)... and (h) stomping the Cavs next Tuesday will be a wonderful way to celebate Sams TF Forum's inaugural GO THREAD, getting us off to a glorious, glorious start, raising the bar impossibly high for all other NBA message board pretenders. WEW!!!

Did I miss anything, fellas?

Nail bitter to the end as all ways. Key is to keep crowd out of it early.
