ya i second that...cavs look kind of lost at times, when bron is just dribbling arond looking for an opening while his teammates are just watching. As for the other 3 teams, they are strong defensive/excution teams...im not sure if im going 2 watch any of the remaing series.
wow..04-08....4 years just like that..time flies..
Wish the lakers could end up with a big guy like this. I think this guy will be better than Yao. He just needs to beef up a little bit.

I think the Spurs would probably win this year.
I don't think Jazz and Cavs stand a chance. Maybe Detroit.
I guess the champion could either be Spurs or Detroit..
but I could be wrong..I mean, if a miracle happens..

i know. my post before was having a stab at good lebron james was and how crap the rest of the cavs are but I guess you didn't pick that up.
Funny how quickly things change. For the past week I've been reading all these articles on espn trashing Bron, pretty much saying he will never be on the level on Bird, Jordan and to a lesser extent Bryant and Wade. All this stuff about him being too unselfish, not ready for the bigstage, no killer instinct...ect ect. This after two close losses against stronger, more talented, more expierenced Pistons team. Then Bron goes nuts and they pull of 3 straight wins, and now there is nothing but praise about how he is on the level ofa Jordan, or Magic....kinda annoys me. If the cavs dont win this series I suspect the cycle will reverse back to trashing bron.
P.S a Cleveland Spurs series will proboally be pretty bad, but it's definetly more intriguing(at least for me) than a Pistons vs Spurs series....soo...Go Cavs
wow..04-08....4 years just like that..time flies..
Yi Jianlian... he's ok i guess, the NBA plays a different style, he'll have to adjust, the thing about tall asian is that they're not built to be as tough as the black/white people (probably in the gene)... so it's harder for them to play rough games like basketball... you got guys like Ben Wallace who's a freaking monster for a guy his size, same deal with Labronse James... For some reason black generally have more muscle mass when they're the same size as Asian, Yao Ming when he 1st started was getting push around alot, even now he still does, compare him to O'neal he's not as good even though he's slightly taller (i think)
Nice! A miracle did happen!
So now its Cavs vs. Spurs

Heard almost 90% of season ticket holders wanted a refund because they heard kobe was going to be traded. the lakers gotta do whatever it takes to keep kobe & bring in some better squad. even if lebron was in the final, this year tv ratings was the lowest. the nba needs kobe/lakers to be in the final every year. LOL
Jackson has one year left on a three-year, $30-million contract and on Monday referred a question on a possible contract extension to an interview he granted in April.
"Whatever I said then stands today," Jackson wrote.
In the April interview, Jackson said there were "a bunch of things that go into it — how we move forward as a team."
"Personally, as an owner, does [Buss] really want to spend the kind of money he's spending on me to have a .500 team? We want to do better than that, by far. How do we go about readjusting to make sure that something that happened this year doesn't happen again in the future?"
Jackson said at the time that his health was not a concern, although he indicated Monday that he wanted to be able to "coach up to my standards."
The Lakers finished 42-40 last season and lost to Phoenix in the first round of the playoffs for a second consecutive season.
If Phil Jackson also feels that he's coaching a mediocre team, then why cant Kobe feel the same way? Jerry Buss doesn't give a damn.
I have the best coach and player. I'm making a lot of money from these guys. Championship? Who gives a damn!
