No doubt. that alone means he cant do no wrong ...didnt tjink he should have left the 1st time ...i firmly believe he is sooo great he would have won eventually. But it worked out ...LeBron is who he is. He's played 11 seasons as a Cavalier, I've long since come to terms with his foibles. He's as moody, pouty and high-maintenance as a teenage girl. He always has been.
He's probably packing his bags. Which is fine. He got us one of these.
I'm thinking it's more fatigue than being "moody" or "pouty." He shouldn't have played big minutes in all 82 games to prove a point this year.LeBron is who he is.

You guys forgot his clutch chase down blocks vs GSWLeBron is who he is. He's played 11 seasons as a Cavalier, I've long since come to terms with his foibles. He's as moody, pouty and high-maintenance as a teenage girl. He always has been.

But whatever
Agreed but wolves have some good defenders. Big concerns if I'll a rockets fan when they fizzled out a win game one at home instead of a25 pt blowout. Wolves have been in every game at least for a while and they should not be.
KaT is a low IQ player no doubt, but that offense out there by Thibbs is also low IQ, Gibson crowds the paint and all the perimeter players maybe except Butler hate giving this man the ball.
Yeah, it's not like Lebron is known for his come from behind blocks, nor does he have an iconic one of those that was literally the difference between winning a championship or not.
There's a difference between being fatigued and just dogging it, CN.
It's not a big deal- if they don't lose in this round they'll lose in another round, so whatever. But LeBron is human like the rest of us and he has his foibles, which include not making an effort to get back on defense from time to time if he isn't in the mood to.
Anyway, I agree that a ridiculous amount is asked of him. But he didn't have to play 82 games. I'm sure LeBron has the clout to take a game off every now and again. I wouldn't think less of him for doing so. The man deserves to take a break from time to time.
Chris Paul retaining his conference finals virginity is a real possibility.
Context. Yes he chases down and blocks. But, show me a clip where he turned the ball over on one side of the court, then immediately got after a player going for a layup way on the other side of the court, then swatted it away. That takes a ton of energy and drive. Kobe had it. I haven't seen that with LBJ.Yeah, it's not like Lebron is known for his come from behind blocks, nor does he have an iconic one of those that was literally the difference between winning a championship or not.
Remember, Kobe taught him to play defense in the 2008 Olympics. You need proof? Show me one all-defensive team LBJ made before that year (Kobe already had a couple). You can't. Even Coach K said Kobe set the tone on that team ever since their first practice. Facts.

Playoff Paul
What's so funny son? http://www.nba.com/history/awards/nb...fensive-teams/
T-Wolves' 3rd string PG (Aaron Brooks) is better than our 1st string PG. smh
You mean this?
Not saying LeBron dogging it on one sequence in Game Three of a first-round playoff series cancels out one of the single greatest defensive plays in Finals history.
Spread was 7. Pels won by 8. Pels went 4-0 ATS. Easy money.
Aaron Brooks is better than most of the scrubs the Grizzlies started at the point this season (Andrew Harrison, Mario Chalmers, and Kobi Simmons).
How many teams in playoffs have more talent than Rockets? Half a dozen?
Ariza/Tucker starting forwards.
Dantoni a regular season beast of a coach.
CP3 looking old.
The talent level in current NBA is through the roof now. Been watching pro basketball for 3 decades, and never enjoyed it more than now. Some serious skill being put on display.
1998 NBA finalists. Wonder if any of those teams can win a single playoff round now, tbh.
D'Antoni looking more and more like a regular season coach.
Dubs should truthfully be the 1 seed, as they are clearly the better team. Possibly better even before Curry comes back
Yeah, I bet Silver is thanking the good Lord for guys like Ben Simmons and Donovan Mitc . Guys like that revitalized the league (along with Tatum/Brown/Irving).The talent level in current NBA is through the roof now.

Wouldn't be shocked if the T'Pups manage to push this to 7. The NBA won't let them win the series but with their talent on top of the Rockets looking mediocre this series could get interesting.
