Dwight Howard showed why he is Superman by making 12-16 free throws and scoring 40 points to go with 14 rebounds in leading the Orlando Magic to a 103-90 victory over the NBA's MVP Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers to advance to face the L.A. Lakers in the NBA Finals. Rashard Lewis chipped in 18 points and the Orlando bench outplayed the Cavs en route to ending Cleveland's dream season. Lebron James put in his worse game of the series with only 25 points, 7 assists, and 7 rebounds, but it wasn't his fault the team lost, Mo Williams once again disappeared scoring only 17 points and Delonte West had 22 but on only 9-19 shooting. The Cavs came in with the best defense in league but they could not defend the paint and when they tried to the Magic burned them from beyond the arc this time making 12-3 pointers. The Cavs have some things to address now in the off season, Mo Williams was supposed to be James' sidekick but he disappeared when it mattered most. Cleveland needs to find a more athletic big man who can hang with Howard and also instill fear on the defensive end. Cavs fans got to overzealous already anointing themselves as Champs after beating two injury plagued teams that weren't that good to begin with, and Cavs fans should know better than that. Game 1 of the NBA Finals starts Thursday in L.A.
MAGIC WIN SERIES 4-2 OVER THE CAVALIERS
