Here's my 2010 Finals prediction: Cavs vs Blazers.
Here's why: Obviously, LeBron can carry almost any 4 other people on the planet to the Finals with him (seriously, look at that 2007 Finals roster after LBJ, it's atrocious) but the Cavs are going to have a lot of cap room this summer, with Wally's bloated contract coming off the books, and Ben Wallace's money maybe coming off too. So, they're probably going to get LeBron a little more help. Factor in LBJ's improvement as a player (scary) and a couple free agents added, they should be able to get back to the Finals. Now, Portland is absolutely loaded with young talent. Who doesn't like this team? Roy is one of 15 best players in the world, and super clutch. LaMarcus Aldridge is only getting better, and he can definitely be the 2nd best player on a championship team. Point Guard play is going to be huge, and if they can get anything at all out of Oden, they're going to be challenging LA. Travis Outlaw should be starting. This past season, they were a little young, but they could win 60 games this season and contend.
