    Do you not know what a double and triple team is?
    any yet not many open looks from anyone else. Must seem amazing to a fan in the weak East who doesn't see this level of rotation on team defensive schemes.

    The D was great. He just coulnd't get over the hump. Again, I expecto some Cavs fans to come out and say they will dominate game 2, etc, etc, etc without any facts otehr than Lebron is the king, etc. It doesn't look like they will be able to do anythign else.

    hahaha wow, the West is alittle different isnt it "King"??

    Bowen didn't just play good defense on Lebron, the whole Spurs team did. But to say that he coked is stupid. Last time I checked this was game one, and the trophy presentation wasn't after tonight's game. He had a bad shooting night tonight, but there are still atleast 3 games to go. And unlike Dirk, Lebron has more to offer than points, he should have had about 12 assists but the rest of the team is trash. I understand that most people respect Lebron, but have to pick him apart, but it's only jealousy of the press coverage he gets. Coming from a Nuggets fan makes it even more ironic, seeing as Carmelo and the boys are in bed now getting ready for early tee times in the morning.

    Bowen is the best Defensive player in the league hands down.
    For at least the last 4 years. Period.

    I think it is what most of the teams do on Duncan.

    Wait wait wait. We were told repeatedly by the Koolaid Gang that there was no way for Bowen to defend James and our D is on par with the Pistons so it must have just been a bad night for him.

    Are you serious?

    Don't call LeBron a choker for losing to the best basketball team in the world. Don't call anyone a choker for that, because otherwise everyone is a choker. Lebron was double teamed a lot and didn't really have the chance to do much until the game was more relaxed and he had no pressure because it was already a lose at that point.


    I don't think anyone will be stealing Dirk's throne any time soon...
    This guy has some sense, and I'm not saying this because I'm obviously a Cavs fan.

    I wouldn't call LeBron's performance choking. He was suffocated by a team that's superior to his. Dirk Nowitzki was shut down by the Golden State Warriors, who we all know are NOT better than the Mavs, regardless of the upset. I rooted for the Warriors, but I knew all along that they won because they played with more heart, more passion, while the #1 team CHOKED.

    By the way, the le of this thread is simply amazing. Truly original!

    dude, if the Nuggets were in the EAST then Lechoke wouldn't have even made it to the Finals. The East is a joke, the team who comes out of the east just seems to be the biggest joker.

    You guys got manhandled by the Spurs in game 1 , did you see what the Nuggets did to the Spurs in game 1? The Spurs adjusted and won the series quickly, but the Nuggets putup a of a fight compared to Lebron and Co. By the way, Melo averaged 26.9ppg on 48% and 50% from 3 (9 from 18) and over 8rpg in the series vs the spurs. Lebron won't even come close to that.

    I suppose I can let you savor your only win this postseason. Your two superstars did well, but what'd they do the next four games? Not win, that's for sure.

    You say the East is a joke, but something tells me that when AI and Melo were on their fishing trip, they were wishing Colorado was in the East.

    Its too soon to call it a choke job. LeBra definitely had an off night. He is never derogatory towards his opponents and I respect that. Not like the phoenix suns of es who are still crying.

    I'm glad he had a bad game and got a reality check though.

    LeBron might go for 50 the next game, who knows. But tonight the Spurs D was damn sweet. Bruce did what he needed to do and then as soon as he got near the paint, the double came.

    Tonight LeBron was LeBOW3ND.

    Let Lechoke and the boys win ONE game against the Spurs before you say anything. It must have been tough to play the Wizards without arenas & butler, play the Nets with an injured RJ and then a Pistons team with a horrible coach and no inside presence. Wow what a tough road to the Finals.

    The NBA should just join conferences and let the top 8 play on

    You say the East is a joke, but something tells me that when AI and Melo were on their fishing trip, they were wishing Colorado was in the East.
    of course they wish they were in the East, who doesnt? The West is tough and any team 1-9 could beat the Cavs in a series.

    LeBron might explode the next game but this at least has shut up the media till Sunday.

    taking cue from 300, we have made the god-king bleed. he is indeed human.

    Carmelo actually has talent around him while lebron is surrounded by a bunch of average nba players. Lebron hadn't seen a team the caliber of the spurs in a while I would expect him to bounce back game 2. Bowen is great but when lebron is at his best he will be able to do little to stop him.

    Will James run through more defenders for charges? About the only thing he could do is start pulling up on the drive to shoot the 18 foot J with the defensive looks the Spurs are throwing at him.

    Had the Nuggets played better in the regular season, they would've gotten a better seed. You get what you earn, and the Nuggets earned a first-round series with the Spurs. Too bad so sad. Don't make an excuse out of the fact that the Nuggets are in the Western Conference. IMO, they're better than the Jazz. AI and Carmelo just need to play together more. The Nuggets were well capable of taking the 4 or 5 seed, which would've set up a first-round series with neither the Spurs, Suns, or Mavs.

    I like Lebron because he doesn't make any excuses.

    But yeah, I'm glad as well, that he got humbled tonight by the Spurs/Bowen.

    Had the Nuggets.......Mavs........Suns......Jazz played in the east you wouldnt be here at all.......What if are pointless. Nuggets are a good team, no im not a fan, but had they traded for AI sooner they would have been a higher seed. Bottom line West > East.

    How many threads are you going to post this in? If you are going to out your own , why don't you try not to be so obvious about it? How about giving a cut of your profits to Spurstalk since you are using them for your advertising?
