I believe that guarding Kobe in the playoffs all those years has given Bruce everything he needs to be a significant defender against Lebron. The difference to me is that Kobe still scared the out of me whenever they played.
Way to show 'em Bruce. The absence of the dpoy trophy is inexcusable. That was a defensive CLINIC you just put on the "greatest 2nd coming of mj since sliced bread and wheaties espn highlight ."
WILL BRUCE CONTINUE THE LOCKDOWN NEXT GAME?

Oh yea!!
Bruce was the REAL MVP tonight. give credit where credit is due. BRUCE was the man tonight. i hope he can keep it up.
Bruce is awesome.
Yes.
I said Bruce would do this after Lebron's 48 point game.
bruce will be ignored by the analysists and they will take it as LeBron's offnight, but it was BRUCEEEEE who did the work.

Bruce DPOY of the last 4 or 5 years.
No argument here!
He did a pretty good job.
he let him get free for a couple threes to get his groove going better.
He better be ready for game 2, cause hes gonna be a of a guard even more than normal.
He sounded pretty pissed in the postgame news conference
Bruce goes against the youngest, best, most athletic player on the team EVERY SINGLE GAME OF THE YEAR, and he's still all NBA first team at the age of 37. That's CRAZY. Aside from the biggest stars in NBA history, no one can say that.
He gave me the spooks when he walked into the locker room in the first quarter. Make the appropriate adjustments for game 2.
Bruce has the toughest assignment. I'm rooting for Bruce to get MVP. Keep it up Bruce.
Give him !!
Dude, those threes were ridiculous fadeaways. You live with that and keep his azz out of the lane. LeBron ALWAYS thinks he's a better shooter than he actually is.
Lebron's going to press and start jacking up all sorts of shots next game when the Spurs cut of the lane again.
Mark it.
Yeah those 3's were horrible shots. Even Mike Brown noted in the post game that just because LeBron made a couple shots doesn't mean he got going at all. He said those were bad possessions for the Cavs because LeBron was just Pound-Pound-Pound-Pound-Shoot.
Hopefully Lebron goes to that when the lane gets cut off again. If they can get him jacking up shots all night the 4th le will be close at hand.
Cavs scripted about the first 5 plays to go through the supporting cast. Dumb. That gave Bruce and the Spurs some time to warm up their D on him and when he finally started getting the rock he seemed out of sync (yes, Bruce was a reason for that). I'm guessing Brown won't make that mistake again.
Bruce even managed to fit in a little recruiting tonight...
SAN ANTONIO - JUNE 7: Bruce Bowen #12 (L) of the San Antonio Spurs with Chris Bosh of the Toronto Raptors after the Spurs Game One win of the 2007 NBA Finals at the AT&T Center June 7, 2007 in San Antonio, Texas.
Bruce was arguably the MVP tonight. His D (and his help) on LeBron was textbook. No FGs in the first half, and LeBron never even sniffed the rim.
Since we're into asterisks, the DPOY award for 2007 should have a big one.
Just concentrate on Bruce off the ball for a few plays. He's amazing to watch! He works so hard. He is an integral part of this team. Those dagger 3's don't hurt either!
I called it.
