Re: You know LeBron James reminds me somewhat of KG
KG is always intense as hell. He plays like the opposition stole his dog and walks it across the street of his house every day.
Bron always looks like he is having a gay 'ole time. Always laughing and talking.
But Lebron took his team to the finals with freakin Drew Gooden and Boobie Gibson playing major minutes (albeit in a weak EC)
KG couldn't get his team out of the first round until Cassell brought some moxy to the team. (albeit in a stacked WC)

This, he sets the standard for himself and he sets it too high. if kobe had 18/7/7 in the finals nobody would say anything
Edit: they would because he only puts up high scoring games

Re: You know LeBron James reminds me somewhat of KG
Except LeBron managed to get his crappy team to the finals in 2007. Then again, KG played in a much harder western conference.

KG is not taking Cleveland level supporting cast the past 2 years to 60+ wins including 66 and 1 shy of the Boston Celtics home record (could have tied had LeBron actually played the last game).

Lebron's 60+ wins support cast was better than KG had in Wolves, and yet KG got them to 58 wins and WCF (more valuable achievement in harder conference). You were saying?

Lets see:
Shaq, even old he was still better than any center KG had in Wolves.
Jamison, 20/10 big man, although underutilized in Cavs (16/8), was again better than any big man KG had in Wolves.
Mo, All-star (undeserving but still) solid player, in the line of older Sprewell and Cassell.
Varejao, scrappy defender, a decent big man, again better than any big KG had in Minny.
Delonte, as crazy as he is, he is solid player from the bench, and better defender than anyone in Minny not named Garnett.
Mike Brown, as much as we like to make fun of him, was a decent coach, and simply great defensively, much better than Saunders was for... anything.
Overall, Cavs were solid team (not fantastic, but much better than some fans give them credit), build around Lebron's strengths, it had depth too. Obviously better than any team KG had in Wolves.

Spreewell AND Cassell that year were better than anyone the Cavaliers had.
How many games did Cassell take over down the stretch that year? His injury was a huge part of why they lost as well in the playoffs iirc.
Jamison and Shaq weren't on the 66 win team...
LeBron's next leading scorer on the Cavaliers in the playoffs was Mo at 16ppg on 40.8% FG (Think Orlando Series). Spreewell was dropping 20 on higher efficiency, and Cassell 17 at 46.5%. KG actually had two guys that, without him, were still good players. It's not as if they were irrelevant and became relevant by playing with KG and on the Wolves. Mo Williams went from obscurity and being a 2nd/3rd option on a team that was failing to make the playoffs in the East, to winning 66 games alongside LeBron, back to being a nobody after he left...
You were saying?

His 07 team wasn't crappy and the teams he played to get to the finals were horrible

In what way is a team starting Pavlovic, Gooden, Gibson, and Hughes not utterly disgusting? Oh man, I forgot Zydrunas, with his whopping 12 ppg and 8 reb on <50% FG.
Revisionist history at it's finest.

They were good enough to get to the finals with LeBron scoring 25 ppg on 41%.
