Since Howard dominate inside (look at what he did in OT) the game is open for ORL outside shooters. You can have Lebron score all his points and still lose the game because CLE doesn't match up well with ORL. They have 2 big guys who could shoot 3 any time (Rashad Lewis and Hedo) that means they could run small and big offense with same guys on the floor while CLE has to look deep into the bench rotation to defend it. There is no what if, could have, would have in NBA playoffs. And there is no CLE could have played different ways and take 3-1 lead. ORL responded every time CLE make adjustment and make them pay. Public opinion look at the games differently, Vegas knows how the game rolls out they make the public pays for the wrong thinking, ORL is 4-0 ATS against CLE. Thats why people should ignore the Lebron Hype and look carefully at matchups. When you analyzing games, you dont put your heart, emotions on a team.
