I'm seeing a lot of LeBron discussion going on here on this forum regarding the Game 5 loss vs. Boston...what's the big deal? LeBron James isn't that special of a player. He has been to the Finals before but got swept. The Celtics were the favorites coming into the series and Cleveland is the underdog. So why such a big deal being made out of Boston being up 3-2 and on the verge of heading to ECF's? No one expected the Cavs to win this series and they aren't. No big surprises. LeBron came out and shot 15 shots and made only 3. Another classic example of players only being good when they make shots. He won the MVP in 2009 and lost to Orlando..again, this year is no big surprise. The MVP is a regular season award. Anyone can make shots during the regular season. In fact, every single player in the NBA made a shot this year. All this means is LeBron took more shots than everyone else and made the most ESPN highlight reels. Doesn't make him any good.
So again, no trash talking here. Nothing personal against Cleveland. No one expected them to win this series and they aren't, no big deal here. I think Cleveland wants to come out and act like they're the favorites, they want to try and make a couple of shots here and there and think that it will be enough but it isn't. LeBron doesn't care about the game anymore anyway as much as he does about the fortune and fame.
