fleung22 1 Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I think game 2 showed a bit of what life would be without Lebron and his top sidekicks when the Pistons stormed back. Link to post Share on other sites

keith crime 8 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 • LeBron James led the Cavaliers with 36 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists. He finished the series averaging 32.0 points, 11.3 rebounds and 7.5 assists, becoming just the third player in NBA history to average at least 30 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists in a single postseason series (Larry Bird and Oscar Robertson are the others). • James became just the second player in NBA history to accumulate at least 1,300 points, 400 rebounds and 350 assists in his first 50 career postseason games (Oscar Robertson was the other).

keith crime 8 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 why does winning 4 games by double figures against a team that didnt even half-ass it make lebrons numbers soo impressive?Because it's only been done by two othersBecause his starting backcourt seemed to completely fold under the pressure of the playoffsBecause while other teams were blowing leads due to overconfidence he kept his team focused with a killer attitudeDid Denver play great last night or did New Orleans pack it in like no other team in history - it's always bothDid Manny Ramirez hit a majestic home run last night or did the pitcher throw him a gopher ball?Can you name me a time in the history of the NBA where a team got swept and you were like - wow they were an amazing opponent and they still got destroyed!?By the way, the Cavs last game of the season against Philadelphia was a must win game for the 76ers and they barely eked out a win in overtime against a Cavs team that had Z, LeBron, Joe Smith, and I think Mo Williams in street clothesThat same 76ers team is now causing all kinds of havoc to OrlandoWhen you play a crappy team your job is to blow them out quickly and efficiently and he did Link to post Share on other sites

No. 1 wasn't that great since Kobe makes that shot every night. No. 3 re: block on Yao Ming is pretty damn sick. I like how Lebron almost jumps too high on the alleyoop on no. 16.ya, this is well deserved award. not only great stats but got the Ws each night and got the Cavs the top seed. Is there another sweep against the Hawks? For some reason I think Atlanta might steal 1 but no more than that barring a major Cleveland injury. Link to post Share on other sites

keith crime 8 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 anyone see that sick pass Lebron made from the top of the key to varajao under the basket with about a minute to go in the first halfI watched the replay 3 times and i still couldn't figure out how he made that passdon't bother to say it I know the cavs aren't playing good teams - but still they've beat them all thoroughly all 6 games by double digits Link to post Share on other sites
keith crime 8 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 lol you are really wet for lebron arent youI like this - my friend always says that I want to suck his d ick in a gay way, but you're the first one to actually intimate that my admiration for him makes me a woman :)All I know, is that Michael Jordan beat on my Cavs teams for years and years and loved doing it (thanks to that inane Ron Harper for Danny Ferry trade) and now finally the next MJ is on my team.
