LeBron James was nothing short of spectacular in the fourth quarter Thursday night to extend the Cleveland-Orlando series to a sixth game in Orlando Saturday night.

And that, I believe, is where it ends.

James is off-the-charts good but Orlando's has a much more well-rounded offense. And very good offenses will beat a "great player" almost every time.

As for Lakers-Denver, Game 6 is in Denver tonight and the Nuggets should extend the series to a Game 7 Sunday night unless there are some more meltdowns (in terms of shot selection and technical foul collecting) on the part of George Karl's players.

But the Nuggets aren't going to beat the Lakers in the Staples Center again . . .

Game 1 of the championship series will be Wednesday night in Los Angeles. Lakers will win it in six games . . .
