Cavs stunning turn around...

The Cleveland Cavaliers ripped through the regular season while racking up 66 wins, coach of the year, and league MVP. Their first eight playoff games looked like a reprieve. Their last four has them staring at elimination tomorrow night. What happened? And more importantly, how so quickly? It reminds me of the first fight between Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield. Tyson, up to that point, was the irresistible force and the immovable object. He destroyed his opponents with pure talent. Evander Holyfield was a tough and determined underdog. He was also the first fighter to make Tyson appear human. With surgeon like precision, Holyfield exposed and attacked weaknesses in Tyson's game. He was not intimidated. Tyson had no counter. The Cavs seem to be the ones on the rope with no counter. If not for a miracle buzzer beater, this would have been the most shocking collapse in NBA history. Swept? Yep, it was a second away from reality. I'm sure ESPN Classic would have had a field day with it. Holyfield went on to beat Tyson in that fight, and I'm not even going there with the rematch. I hope the Cavs, in the next twenty four hours, can develop a counter punch.
