James is going to the Finals

SPECIAL TO ESPN.COM

June 4, 2007 | Dick's Stock Watch provides a fast-glance review of the past week in the world of sports, charting whose stock is up and whose is down.

STOCK UP
• LeBron James, Daniel Gibson and the Cavaliers are going to the NBA finals after stunning the Pistons.

• The Diamondbacks have been on fire, winning nine of their last 10 games.

• Billy Donovan's wallet has been inflated as he added a few zeroes to his contract by joining the Magic.

• The Ottawa Senators are back in the Stanley Cup finals after a win over the Ducks Saturday.

STOCK DOWN
• Carlos Zambrano and Michael Barrett of the Cubs had a fight in the dugout and then a battle in the clubhouse. Both players were fined.

• American men went 0-9 in singles at the French Open, including Andy Roddick and James Blake. They just don't like the clay there.

• Anaheim's Chris Pronger was suspended for game four of the finals for his hit on Dean McAmmond of the Senators.

• A Danish soccer fan ran onto the field and tried to attack the referee during a game Saturday.

Dick Vitale coached the Pistons and the University of Detroit before broadcasting ESPN's first college basketball game in December 1979. Send him a question for possible use on ESPNEWS.
