Celtics/Cavaliers Game 7 Thread

[Tradition]

The east blows. le #5 to the Spurs or le#16 to the Lakers.

[ShoogarBear]

Doc needs to thank his big 3: Paul Pierce, Eddie House and PJ Brown...

[Allanon]

Why are you trying so hard to compare LBJ to Kobe every time he is mentioned on this forum?

Did you read the post? Somebody else brought up that LeBron is better than Kobe, please learn to read before you post idiotic statements.

[Thunder Dan]

didn't Kobe want to be traded because his team sucked?

also didn't Lebron out dual Kobe twice this year, including a game in LA?

[Bob Lanier]

now he's a better passer than LeBron.

No, he's not. James is noticeably more creative and technically skilled - just not as willing, at least this season.

It doesn't matter if he can do the same thign over and over again and score.

That's a sad commentary on the league. I suppose we could call that "dominance", but to suggest that that's everything... By this measure Shaquille O'Neal is "better" than Olajuwon or Duncan, which is a saddening thing to hear.

You Boston Celtics, all i can say is: thank God for PJ Brown

What a joke! Get ready to get royal ass beating by the Pistons

Their big 3 are a bunch of ers who shoot at the last second. There was a sequence when NONE of them (Pierce, KG, Ray ) wanted to take the final shot. It ended up in PJ Brown's hands.

[ducks]

His back forced him to pass. Lebron has always been a team player. Kobe is not. Your irrational hatred of Lebron is a tired shtick.

no when he hurt his back he shot 33 times

he dunked in game 6 his back was fine
he was a ball hog in game 5
and I posted phil was stupid to leave him in there

Yes and yes. The difference is Kobe is still in the Playoffs and LeBron has gone fishing.

so only head to head match ups count

I bet your rubbing your man s now huh?

[Allanon]

you are the same person that is saying Kobe is better than MJ!

I said Kobe is the more talented player, MJ is the Greater player because of his will to win. That is why Kobe is greater than LeBron right now, the will to win.

If those games had gone the other way, you would have started a whole new Kobe > James forum.

KOBE WANTED OUT BECAUSE MANAGEMENT LIED TO HIM
THEY TOLD HIM WHEN HE SIGNED THEY WOULD IMPROVE
THEY TOLD EVERYONE ELSE WAIT 3 years
KOBE FELT BETRAYED AND DEMANDED THEY IMPROVE THE TEAM ASP!

[TampaDude]

The Cavs lost this game at the FT line. Period.

way to rationalize at the expense of Lebron

Kobe. he handled it like an asshole, whether he had legitimate beef or not.

Arizona 4, Detroit 0

and if that were Lebron you would spin it to "Lebron is a baby, Lebron sucks..so on and so forth"

C'mon

You have been doing that a lot, not just in this thread.

LBJ > Kobe

This is true. Kobe got pissed when they traded away Caron Butler. Things went downhill from there.

And at the same time, LeBron also stated he's not happy with his team either.

Neither is a bad person, why waste great talent with mediocre players?

Kobe. he handled it like an asshole, whether he had legitimate beef or not.

and how would you handle it?

what would you do in his place?

if you worked for a company and got paid you would consider quiting and going to another company right?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

and if that were Lebron you would spin it to "Lebron is a baby, Lebron sucks..so on and so forth"

Most definitely. There is no way Ducks would try to justify it Lebron did the EXACT same thing as Kobe.

[ElNono]

I said Kobe is the more talented player, MJ is the Greater player because of his will to win. That is why Kobe is greater than LeBron right now, the will to win.

So what happened when Kobe got kicked out in the 1st round twice in a row? The will-to-win is overrated.

[ducks]

YES James made it quite clear he wanted more help at allstar break

[lefty]

HIs will to win? Lebron had 44 points his teammates did nothing!!! Sorry I didn't know that Zzzz today and ben Wallace were as great players as Gasol and Odom..and West is as clutch as fisher too, isn't he?

Lebron has the same will to win, his teammates suck period!

Shhh....it's Allanon....just pretend he is right...

[Bob Lanier]

The Cavs lost this game at the FT line. Period.

Yes.

That is a legitimate way to win or lose a series, y'know?

Does Hack-a-Shaq come to mind?
