Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Orlando Magic NBA Playoffs Game 6: The Cleveland Cavaliers, down three games to two in the NBA Eastern Conference finals, have no room to wiggle. They must win against the Orlando Magic on the road today to stay alive. If LeBron James and the Cavaliers can do that, they have a great chance to advance to the NBA finals against the Los Angeles Lakers. But Cleveland must force a seventh game against Orlando or it's all over for them. The pressure is on for Orlando too. Unlike game-5 at Cleveland when the Magic had a commanding 3-1 games series lead. Orlando must win today or it will face a seventh game on the road in Cleveland. If that happens Cleveland probably wins the series.
