NEW YORK (AP) -Charles Barkley is picking the Cleveland Cavaliers to win their first NBA title, though he wonders if they are resting LeBron James too much.
Barkley and fellow TNT analysts Kevin McHale and Doug Collins all say a potential Cleveland-Orlando matchup would make a terrific Eastern Conference final, with the winner likely meeting the Lakers for the championship.
But they aren’t ready to guarantee Los Angeles a third straight trip to the NBA finals, especially because Kobe Bryant is struggling with a broken finger.
Barkley feels Cleveland will be too much for any opponent, saying Tuesday on a conference call that he thinks the Cavaliers are “going to win the whole thing.”
