its funny how you guys just ignore what lefthook said and still continue to bash him :oldlol:
Ever heard the saying "check my tats"?
Well since he's a b-ball player, it's "check my stats".
You guys are making such a big deal outta nothin.
[B]You knew the Kobe apostles would be all over this thread...[/B]
Anyways, so LeBron can't wear a shirt that says check my stats, which is usually a reference to someone's living status and not their basketball production....
So what would we say about a UFC fighter who wears this:

This is just another tastless moment by an overrated basketball player (when we judge him by Jordan standards) who hasn't even won anything yet. Instead of worrying about people checking his "$tats", he should worry about checking his jumper and his will to win a game. Also, check his stats in that game 6 where his team needed a victory and he went scorless in the 2nd quarter and was held to 6pts in the 4th (4pts scored when the game was in the balance). Also basically in 4 out of the 6 games, he was a no show in the 4th overal, so I think Prince James should check those things.
[QUOTE=miles berg]I doubt he is truly worried about it. Everyone and their dog knows that he is the best player in the NBA now that Tim Duncan has taken a step down. There really is no competition for him at the top spot. Duncan, Kobe, CP3, Wade, Dirk, & Dwight are all really great players but LeBron is the best player and he knows it. I mean, he isnt out there playing with Pau Gasol or Paul Pierce as his 2nd options, he has Mo Williams. Huge difference.
Give the guy a sidekick and he would be winning title after title.[/QUOTE]
Yet earlier in the year when things were going well for us and how everyone was saying how we finally had the perfect cast around Lebron you didn't say anything. It's only after we epic failed in the playoffs that his teammates are suddenly inadequate.

You are wrong in so many ways. I'm not even gonna take time to entertain this false information other than post visual proof why you are wrong.

[B]Between Mo Williams, Daniel Gibson, Wally Szczerbiak and Big Z they shot 38.6% in the Orlando Magic series, I thought that was a big reason why they lost?[/B]
Delonte West played alright, for his own standards, and so did Anderson Varejao. Even though Anderson at his best is still not as good as about half the power forwards in the league.
[B]It took the Orlando series to really expose their lack of an inside scoring presence other than LeBron. The Cavs are missing that low post player who they can dump the post into him and let him do his thing (similar to a Gasol).[/B]

WTF ? You really don't give a sh!t about defense ...

He's a good flopper and adequate defender, but the Cavs wont win a title with this guy as a starter.
[QUOTE=bruceblitz]He's a good flopper and adequate defender, but the Cavs wont win a title with this guy as a starter.[/QUOTE]
honestly give me a lebron cavs line up that you will be happy with.
[QUOTE=bladefd]Who says LeBron/Kobe wouldn't win as many rings as Jordan with that Pippen/Rodman team (talking about second 3-peat since first 3-peat was a slightly different team)?? That Bulls team got 72 wins in 96 - it is not like Jordan carried the Bulls on his back in all 72 wins during that regular season and then the playoffs during the entire 2nd 3-peat.
-Rodman won like his 4th or 5th straight rebounding title that season so it wasn't like Rodman's game was finished when he was traded to Bulls. You can make the argument that his prime was from the 91-92 season going into 97-98 season. He is easily the greatest rebounder of the 90's, and you can make the case that he is the greatest rebounder of all time (considering that people like Wilt, Russell, etc were the tallest guys on the court in their era with the average height much lower than 6 feet so they would be able to out-rebound everyone around them. Rodman out-rebounded guys MUCH bigger than him). He was a better rebounder than what LeBron/Kobe had throughout their careers (yes, Rodman is better rebounder and man-on-man defender than Shaq). If you had a player averaging 16+ RPG (he would often get 20+ rebounds in a single game), you already have 1 very consistent variable. Rodman did not have too many off nights with his rebounding. We have not even talked about how good of a defender he was.
-Do I really have to say anything about Pippen? He is a top 5 SF of all time (I personally think he is the 3rd best SF of all time after Bird/LeBron). One of the most versatile players of all time, one of the top defenders of all time, etc etc etc. He is a much more consistent and better defensive version of today's Lamar Odom.
-They had Steve Kerr, who was probably the 2nd best 3pt-shooter of the 90's. I would say he was a better version of Mo Williams today from 3pt line. He is a better 3pt shooter than what LeBron/Kobe have today.
If you don't think that LeBron/Kobe would also have gotten a 3-peat during that 96-98 years (or MINIMUM of 2 rings) then you are completely delusional.[/QUOTE]
Steve Kerr is overrated.
[COLOR="Indigo"]I keep seeing someone post up some stats about the Cavs and their shooting percentages.
What baffles me, is the fact that since Lebron came into the league, hes always been touted as a player who "makes his teammates" better.
So, what happened in the ECF?
How come he didn't make them better?

I agree. Varejao is garbage. He wouldn't even start on most teams in the league, if any. His defense is severely overrated, unless you consider trying to draw offensive fouls all game great defense.
LeBron needs an established all-star at this point. Not an established leader of a team, but a great complimentary all-star who can do more than either just shoot or play defense.

You're right. The 66 wins was a result of LeBron NOT making his teammates better.
