\"bostonBoston Celtics<\/strong> go into Game 6 with a 3-2 lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers who were at one stage 2-0 down<\/a> and know they can make it to the NBA Finals if they pull off a win. Even if they lose, they get another crack at making the NBA finals in Game 7.<\/p>\n

The Cavs were outplayed in Game 5 as the Celtics won 96-83<\/em> as they succeeded in neutralizing LeBron James<\/strong> and keep his scoring down to just 26 points<\/em>. James has had to take a flight from Boston back to Cleveland and prepare himself for Game 6 \u2013 not a lot of rest for the big man who looks fatigued.<\/p>\n

The Cavs have had to rely on James to bail them out of tight situations<\/a> on a number of occasions this season and it might be catching up with All Star as he has had to put his body on the line for the last 8 months and lift his team. <\/p>\n

The Celtics know that it is a lot easier to counter a fatigued LeBron James and a possible lack of sleep in the last 48 hours might be one of their biggest weapons.<\/p>\n
