Wow, what a sucky player being the sole focus of one of the best defensive teams in the league and only scoring 22 points on 50 percent shooting in 36 minutes.
OUCH
"They're going to sweep the rest of the playoffs if they shoot like that and win the NBA championship," James said. "We shot 50 percent and had only six turnovers in the first half and were down 22. It's hard to explain that."
DREAM ON THEY WILL NOT SWEEP THE SPURS GET A LIFE!
James scored all of his 22 points in the first half, but the 21-year-old star had to work for each one. Triple-teamed at times, James was forced to take difficult shots or defer to teammates who didn't respond by making shots of their own.
"The team has to be in a zone situation behind me," said Tayshaun Prince, who led Detroit's "LeBron Rules" defense.
James didn't play in the fourth quarter after he was held scoreless in the third while the Pistons built a 30-point lead.

if he is so good david robinson when he did not have duncan scored in the second half why can not james
Do you not like James? What does David Robinson have to do with James? He's a ing dominating center, James is a SG/SF so what's your point?
and James started to help by creating shots for his teammates in the third..The game was the done by the end of the third, so all the starters sat for the rest of the 4th
This was not James' inability, but the Pistons stacked ability to handle James and alter their gameplan. The coach had no answer when James was stopped because they were outmanned and his teammates aren't used to actual Defense unlike the Wiz' sloppy styled game. Either James will adjust and help his teammates step up, or the Pistons will break in one game or two against James They can't hold the beast forever.
Hmmm, the Pistons defense sure has fallen off
Whatever gave you that idea?

Lol, actually, if the Pistons shoot 70% from 3 for the rest of the playoffs, they may sweep. But they won't, and they probably won't sweep this series either.
Whatever gave you that idea?
It must have been 7 weeks since LBJ last did something wrong for ducks to pounce on. Maybe when James has a bad game or makes a mistake we should call it a junebug.
Todays game was deceiving. The WIzards have no defense whatsoever, now Lebron is facing a normal playoff defense, thus the results.
welcome to the playoffs Lebron

Yeah, it has.
PF: 108.2
PA: 95.7
DIFF: +12.4
Throw out game 3 of the Bucks (124 points, their worst output in 15 years) and they are only allowing 90.0 PPG. They are allowing their opponents to shoot .461 from the field. Outrageous, right?
Well, here's where Ben Wallace comes into play again. When he plays over 30 minutes a night in these playoffs, the Pistons allow a usual .411 FG% (4-0). When he's averaging less than 30 MPG, the Pistons are allowing .578 FG% (1-1)
james usually shoots 33% against the pistons and scores 18 points a game against them
atleast that is what the abc announcers said

One: He's 21 for christ's sake. Two: He's a different player than Robinson. If you got a problem with the "people" take it up with them.

Lebron's PR agents , whoever. AND THREE:...These are the Detroit Pistons we're talking about. The same team--some 15 years earlier--who had to teach a young Michael Jordan what it takes to win in the postseason....You won't be hanging up these posts too long when Lebron has a good game. At the very least, that's all we, the non-hater NBA fans and neutral spectators can expect from him, to steal one game or two from the Pistons with a solid effort with the team.
If he doesn't step up, he's got a lot to learn about the game.
