After a fantastic performance from Lebron James (triple-double) in Game 1 the Wizards stormed right back in Game 2 to prevail 89-84. Behind shooting guard Gilbert Arena's 30 point explosion the Wiz had their A game clicking on all cylinders. Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison also contribued 21 points a piece. The Eastern conference first round series looks to be tight.
The Cavs still have their work cut out for them against Washington. It will be no short mountain to climb in advancing to the second round. They have to maintain an offensive spark and not rely too heavily on Lebron James. He will probably put together at least a 40-point scoring performance, but Big Z, Flip Murray, and Damon Jones will have to come through some in the clutch. Drew Gooden needs to bring a strong rebounding game while getting his 10-14 points a game. Behind King James anything is possible for Cleveland, who determine their own destiny.
