Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
I am, and so are a bunch of guys who get paid to play the game.

With that said, lebron is a legend.

My brother, LeBron might have increased the length of his career if he stays with that post game. If what we saw the last 3 games becomes a common occurrence, he could end up transitioning into a PF around the time he's 34 and be the best passing "big man" in the league.

Yeah, I love how lebron played in the finals. He put on a great performance

I'm disappointed with the defensive strategy. Did he make a shot outside the paint tonight?

Not that I remember and they were giving him that outside shot all night. He was just passing it up.


I give em a pass for that tonight....its impossible to keep a guy out the paint if he's on the floor with Bosh, wade, and 2 3 point shooters who refuse to miss.

So how dis Duncan and Russell end up ahead of Hakeem? Russell player in an era of white boys and duncans own teammates don't think he was as good as Hakeem. Hakeem was in a similar situation to bron in Cleveland....except Hakeem turns those teams into champions....and he beat all time great players who were in their primes and had superior teammates to do it.


It really depends on what you value

Dude had 11 rings and rivaled Wilt (who would be a serious athlete in todays era). The rebounding numbers are on another level.

Only thing is he wasn't able to play in a "better" era with more competition and that he had multiple hof teammates.

Damn... just realized I forgot about Oscar:snoop:

Duncan stats may not be mind blowing in comparison, but the accolades, titles, mvps put him on at least the same level as hakeem. If ball fans put hakeem ahead of duncan i could see the argument:yeshrug:

aint like puttin :childplease: > :mjpls: or somethin like that

Bron doesn't need 5 rings to surpass Kobe...

Kobe is one of the best all time. But his stans using rings as the main argument with him just doesn't sit well with me.

Playing with a prime shaq has so much to do with Kobe's early sucess.....


Think about this : If Lebron wins Finals MVP next year he'll already have as many as Bean does.


That says a lot in my opinion.

Same way I see it.

Kobe won rings, but he wasn't even the best player on his team...

This is just an outright lie! The year before Cleveland got Shaq they lost to the Celtics WITH the Big 3 and all you heard was how impressed people were that the Cavs played the Celtics that tough with just Lebron and Mo Williams, so the next year when they got Shaq everybody had them as the favorite. That's exactly how that shyt went.

This is madness!

Some people does not = everybody. Some people though that that version of Shaq would put them over the top, but others didn't feel that way and wasn't surprised when that Cav team was exposed once again. That '09 and '10 Cav teams were built for the regular season not the playoffs. You're not going to win a ring with Mo Williams as the 2nd best player. He's not even a legit starter on a championship team.

theres nothing revisionist about the history. vegas never had the cavs the favorite team to win the title. the lakers were favored both those seasons bron was mvp in cleveland. who cares what commentators think? we really talking about who stephen a smith had favored to win?

LeBron James and Cleveland Cavaliers New Favorites to Win 2009 NBA Championship | Gambling911.com

Oddsmakers like LeBron James' chances of capturing his first NBA Title as his Cleveland Cavaliers are now the favorite to win it all this season.

The Cavs, with just four losses in their last 27 games, moved to +175 odds and are now listed in front of the previously favored L.A. Lakers.

"Cleveland looks great right now and a lot of bettors are feeling like this is LeBron's time to win a championship," said Sportsbook.com spokesman Dave Staley. "This team is unbeatable at home and if they get home court in the playoffs, they'll be tough to take down."

Cleveland has lost just once at home all season, going 37-1 at the Quicken Loans Arena but that sole home loss did come at the hands of the Lakers, a 101-91 defeat in early February.

Since then, Cleveland has rebounded to win its last 13 home games, including a dominating 101-81 win over San Antonio last Sunday.

The Cavaliers have been getting their wins with good defense as they rank first in the NBA with just 91.1 points allowed per game and the 43% field goal shooting by opponents is second-best.

With 99.9 points per game offensively, Cleveland is middle of the road in terms of scoring but they now have a variety of guys to rely on instead of just King James. While James is second in the NBA with an average of 28.4 points per game, teammate Mo Williams adds another 17.9 while big man Zydrunas Ilgauskas adds 13.1.

The title favorite for most of the season, the Lakers are now second on oddsmaker's lists at +180 odds while the defending champion Boston Celtics are third at +450 odds.
