Lebron and the Cavs won the Eastern Conference Finals

9
Vote

by user Behbigben15

Remember the article I wrote about Lebron James not being anywhere close to Michael Jordan, and he will need a bigger supporting cast in order to win the finals anytime soon? Well, I guess I should probably rethink that article. After going down 2 games to nothing in the Eastern Conference Finals, Lebron turned the Cavs around and won 4 straight. In game 4 he had 25 points with 11 assists, that game tied the 7 game series at 2 a piece. Then in game 5 at Detroit, he broke out with career playoff game high, 48 points, he was the most clutch I have ever seen him, and he was 10-14 in free throws. It is so much easier to play basketball when your ahead, so that probably helped him out in game 6, when he had 20 points, 14 rebounds, 8 assists, and 14-19 in free throws. But in game 6 he had a lot more help from his teammates, as they won by a landslide (98-82).

Lebron definitely carried his team on his back, it would be unbelieveable if the Cavs beat the Spurs, and won the finals. Now I would have to say that he may be MJ, IF he wins the finals, just because MJ won with Scottie Pippen, and Lebron had none, well he did have 4 other guys, but none of them were anywhere near Scottie Pippen's talent. It would be the best story, so far, in 2007, if Lebron carried the Cavs to a championship, especially against the spurs.

Eh, Larry Hughes, while not nearly as good as pippen (no one really knows how good pippen is w/o MJ), is still decent...beyond that Marshall, Illgauskus (?), Snow, Varajoe and so on are strickly role players...none of them are great...and only illgauskus is really good...with that said, one could argue that LeBron is probably the most talented player in the league and basically only needs players who can, in a nut shell, hit open shots, a la Boobie Gibson...

Do you realize how many of the Bulls teams of the 90's were "strickly role players"? How many of the Spurs of the 00s are "strickly role players"? That's how you win championships is getting the right role players into the right roles.

You're arguing semantics...if you think guys like rodman, grant and pippen were strictly "roleplayers" you just have a different definition..its the same...

except they didn't have a proven star. Granted, the comparison still exists. the team that everyone doubts winning it all, and completing a great underdog story

And no, its not like the pats...except their an underdog...its like the '04 red sox, or the '99 rams, or the '04 pistons or...1/2 of all teams in a finals (of any sport) is an underdog...its not really that similar...

It's Jordan (LeBron) v. Kareem (Duncan), though... Right?

I wonder if the Cavs can win a game that gets into the 100s or 110s by the end of regulation. SAS has proven that they can win in both low and high scoring games. LeBron moves the offense fairly slowly and his shooters really aren't that great I feel.

Damn people what's you're problem?? There's a Stanley Cup Final going on right now (one of the most cherished prizes in all of professional sports and you talk about is basketball?? Sorry for my attitude but I'm just damn sick of it. Hockey is way better than all baseball, gridiron and basketball!!

If you like hockey so much then why did you even come to this page? In case you havent noticed, noone in the U.S. likes hockey, its a canadien sport, that would be why the stanley cup ratings were so low. Why dont you stay on the NHL page, if your just going to complain about me talking about what I want to talk about, bitch.

Oh, I forgot, the Vince Lombardi Trophy is definitely the most cherished prize in all of professional sports. You just wish hockey was better than the other sports, but I would even put hockey below soccer, and I fucking hate soccer.

I'm gonna have to disagree...the cup is very special...its at least the most recognizable trophy in US sports if not worldwide...

yes, I guess that is true but there are definitely more nfl fans, in the U.S. anyway, but up in Canada, I think there is pretty much just hockey fans, maybe a couple CFL fans, though.
