The comparison made wasn't Jamison with Bynum, Odom, and Artest.Jamison isn't a star, but Bynum, Odom, and Artest all are.
The comparison made was Jamison with Pau Gasol.

so in essence, the "lebron doesnt have teamates" excuse doesnt hold truth this year.
I gotta question....How come Cle used to OWN Boston at the Q last year & the year before when they were a lot less deeper? Now with a much better team they get abused 2 times there in one series, is weird hahaa...I know Rondo is better now but the big 3 is not as good as they were & Bostons bench used to be better.
so is kobe the coach of LA to "utilize" jamison correctly, or is PJ?
so the question you want to ask is, Does Cleveland need a real coach? I agree, yes they do.
To be fair, he needs help to survive the Boston Tea Party
Shrugs, sure.
If that was your point, I wouldn't really call you on it. It's one way of looking at it. I don't view things in absolutes. Each year, things have to fall into place almost perfectly for a team to win it all. Sometimes, it's bad luck, injuries, a bad bounce. Sometimes a superstar player just has a poor playoff performance in a few games that costs a series.
I don't think LeBron's teammates are all that great, but I do think LeBron is good enough individually that he "could" get the team he has now to the NBA Finals in the east. But I'll put it like this, I think if you put LeBron on a team like the Atlanta Hawks or Milwaukee Bucks (with a healthy Bogut), he "could" get to the NBA Finals with those teams too. My saying LeBron could get to the Finals with this Cavs team doesn't really speak on how "good" his teammates are. It speaks more to how good I think LeBron is. But that doesn't necessarily mean if he doesn't get to the NBA Finals, LeBron is a choker or just doesn't have enough to lead a team to a le. It could just as well mean things didn't fall into place for them to make a le run.
I'm not who brought up any excuse for LeBron. He played poorly last night. It's not like when you're the best player in the league, it's easy to win every year, year after year. That's a perception based on the Michael Jordan standard. Duncan and Shaq and Kobe have been the best players the past decade and they each have had their struggles in the playoffs even when they were favored or should have gone further than they did. It happens.
Oh, I know. I just think its funny that people refer to the Lakers as the "most stacked team in the league, by far" because of "allstars" like Bynum, Odom, and Artest, but Antawn Jamison, Shaq, Mo Williams, etc. are all scrubs despite putting up the same or better numbers.
I'm 100% sure that if either of those three played for the Cavs, they'd have even worse numbers than they do now.
If the Lakers replace Pau Gasol with Antawn Jamison, I don't think the Lakers beat the Jazz. I know it was a sweep, but most of the games were relatively close until game 4 and Boozer and Millsap would have feasted on Jamison.
Jamison is an inefficient volume scorer + below average rebounder + bad passer + one of the worst defenders in the league.
He had an excellent season in Dallas, where he showed he could be a high-level 6th man (guarding lesser players, with a much reduced usage rate).
He's the Jamal Crawford of the bigs.
Just stop. Please
I think he just needs someone who is efficient, like how Houston got Kevin Martin, they need someone like that, just healthier. Still, there is absolutely no reason to be trailing an old ass Boston team
I guess the Cavs were dumb to do a trade for Jamison. What a scrub. Lebron probably does need a Wade type star.
Finals, ECF exit, and now 2nd round. If he stays, he'll be out in the first round even if they get him a few more all-stars.
No reason for this current team not to be ATLEAST 7 games into the ECF.
Beware of the predator who uses genius techniques to bait prey. You can look all around nature to see how predators use innovative ways to bait prey. There is the mountain lion that has mastered this skill. After a kill the lion feeds on only about three-fourths of the kill for the next few days. At that point, the mountain lion will drag the carcass towards an open area and generally by some nearby rocks. There the mountain lion hides and waits patiently for other hungry predators that might happen to cross and smell the blood. When those scavengers start to feed, the mountain lion will fiercely attack them. Now the mountain lion can feed for weeks on those baited prey. By that I mean be wary of LeBron for he may merely be baiting the Celtics and the rest of the NBA and is waiting to strike for the kill, for LeBron is a skilled master-baiter.
King Master-Baiter ftw. Lebron wins games 6 and 7 and I eat crow.
The gold frog often avoids land and stays primarily on or nearby water. This is an evolved behavior due to predators. With gold and purplish black spots, the gold frog is a very appealing meal for the black snake. The gold frog has a hard time traveling around land with the black snake all up in the grass. And by that I mean lakaluva has a hard time walking with Kobe all up in his ass.
lol native american ftw...
RJ averaged like 20 ppg before we got him..
Yeah, yeah.... and if they put Russell out there he'd have an 11-time NBA champion by his side right?
I'm as big a LeBron hater as anyone, but your argument for him having everything he needs is horse . Take LeBron off that squad and the only thing they contend for is the lottery.
And, lol @ former and one-time all stars.
Gasol carried his team to the playoffs twice, nevermind the fact that you just compared a top-10 player in the NBA to Antawn Jameson, which is just plain re ed.
Good point.
RJ averaged like 20 ppg before we got him..
Jameson is a nice player, but he's a third option on a champiosnhip team. still, i think the Cavs will make it to the Finals and give themselves a chance to win. the series isn't lost yet. if they win, no one remember anything about how Lebron choked.
Just stop. Please
Stop what? More specific please.
