LeBron James couldn’t make a basket down the stretch—or at virtually any other time—and the Boston Celtics eked out a 76-72 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday night in the opener of the Eastern Conference semifinals
ames was held to 12 points on 2-for-18 shooting. He missed three drives and a 3-pointer in the final minute.:lol:lol:lol:lol
LeBron James thought he had it rough with the Wizards? Not compared to what Boston left him with: 12 points, 10 turnovers, 1 loss:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol

Tough to score when your playing 1 on 5.

[ducks]

tough to score when you turn the ball over 10 times

[Armando]

And Boston did not play well either

[ducks]

they got the w
they played down to the cavs

If Allen and Pierce had shown up this game could have been a blowout.

allen chokes in playoffs

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

At least his team hasnt been blown out twice by a team run by a playoff newb. :lol

I guess you have to distract yourself from the horrible hornets-spurs series huh?

[kingsfan]

How did I know this thread was coming :lol
I enjoyed it too. :toast

I don't know if I will go that far yet but nobody is mentioning that he has been struggling a bit in the playoffs. I did not see tonight's game but I think Rivers needs to run him off screens and get him more touches. 4 shot attempts is nowhere near enough touches.

[JoeTait75]

Son, you aren't fit to shine LeBron's shoes. You ought to just understand that instead of being a hating little one-note bitch.

[Burn531]

Why again do you hate Lebron?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Why again do you hate Lebron?

Same reason he hates Manu?

[ducks]

breaks the rules get away with it
travels
is shoved down everyone's throat

[tlongII]

So I guess LeBron must suck then, huh?

[ducks]

That seems fair.

:lol

[tlongII]

He's the best player in the league. Hands down.

[Capt Bringdown]

Every time he touched the ball he had a 3 man funnel on him.

Solution? How about some ball moment? Look for the open man instead of finding ways to penetrate against triple coverage.

Barkley called out Coach Brown for the horrible offensive sets.

[JoeTait75]

Overrated...

Brought an entire fucking franchise back from the dead, single-handedly...

You have no idea, no clue, no conception of how bad this organization was before he got here...

Overrated...

I can't believe I'm letting this dipshit get a rise out of me. :downspin:

He had nine assists. The support guys actually did pretty well. He got Z and Wally the ball in good spots. God love him, LBJ just couldn't hit. Even a standard below-average game, and we win going away.

This team needs another guy who can penetrate and create opportunities. There's nobody else who can get LBJ easy looks... he has to create everything for everyone and himself. No one is asked to do more than him.

[E20]

ducks if Tony parker was quintuple teamed he would turn the ball over 90 times. LBJ had it coming and everybody knew that Boston was gonna cover LBJ with 5 guys and they Cavs still nearly won. I said this last year when they played the Pistons and I'll say it again. The margin of victory by Boston was miniscule it was not assuring of any dominance, with LBJ playing so shitty they still nearly won it, samething happend to LBJ last year he played shitty two first games and the exploded games 3 4 5 6. I expect a close game 2, but would not be suprised if cavs lost in a similar fashion. Then expect LBJ to get amped by the home crowd in game 3 and go ape shit and win games 3 and 4 steal one in boston and then wrap it up at home again.

[Deuces88]

James didn't play bad because of Boston D. Pretty much all his looks were good. He just couldn't convert. Once LeBron drives, Celts can't do anything to stop him. LJ stopped himself last night.

[Allanon]

LeBron is a good player but he's not a great player yet. He has all the talent in the world but his will to win is not up to the Greats yet.

I feel when he joins the Knicks in a couple of years, he will become one of the Greats, until then, he'll keep making the Playoffs but never be a contender.

The HOF coach, all stars playing with him in New York will make him a great?

LeBron puts up numbers only Jordan and Oscar have before yet people still expect more. :king

Oh my god... get your fucking mouth off of Kobe's dick. im fucking sick of the Kobe lovers that hate on Lebron for absolutely no fucking reason.

[Bob Lanier]

Speaking as a non-Kobe lover, there are plenty of valid reasons to dislike LeBron.

And above all of them, the marketing and the cheating and the bullshit, is the fact that he's just one ugly motherfucker.

[Killakobe81]

LBJ still learning ... kobe is OBI-wan, MJ is Yoda, LBJ is Anakin

[mojorizen7]

LeBron will prob go for 50 in game 2.

[Killakobe81]

LBJ still learning ... kobe is OBI-wan, MJ is Yoda, LBJ is Anakin

Obviously he has the potential to be the greatest that remains 2 b seen though ..right now he is 3rd best

[Killakobe81]

Im a KObe fan but hav e much respect for LBJ

[mojorizen7]

LBJ still learning ... kobe is OBI-wan, MJ is Yoda, LBJ is Anakin

I guess that would make Stern kinda like....The Emperor.

Who do Kobes fans hate Lebron?

Anyway Lebron had his worst PO's ever. I dont think he will play this bad ever again. 9 assists mean nothing when he has the ball in his every trip

However, most of the blame should be directed at M Borwn. Do they have any offensive sets other than give the ball to Lebron or dumb it to big Z? They do have so players who can shoot now so they might wanna run some plays for them.

[gmartin02]

All of the Leastern conference teams totally suck - that was one of the worst games I have ever watched

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

LBJ still learning ... kobe is OBI-wan, MJ is Yoda, LBJ is Anakin

Wrong. MJ is Yoda. Manu is Obi Wan

Kobe is Anakin/Darth Vader

LBJ is Luke
