carmello is playing out of his mind right now...it may be a little overkill putting in the top 5, but hes big, strong and is doing all the little things that a leader will do. hes getting boards, and not the boards lebron gets where he snatches easy rebounds, or works hard up 20 with 2 minutes left trying to get a triple double. but outworking kobe underneath the basket and getting offensive boards and put backs.

Lets see.....

1.   Only the third player in NBA history to lead his team in pts, rebs, assists, steals and blocked shots in a single season

2.  Scored or assisted on 60% of the cavs points in the series vs orlando --- which is a NBA record

3.  Scored over 25 points in 16 straight playoff games.....only MJ and Kareem has done it more....and LBJ may be on his way to breaking that record too...becuase he is fast approaching the record of 25 games of 25 points or more in the playoffs

4.  This is the 2nd time LBJ has gone nuts in the 4th qtr...he did it a few years ago vs. Detroit....and again last nite.....last nite, he either scored or assisted on every 4th quarter point that the cavs got --- MJ has never done that...Kobe has never done that....that is just straight SICK [he had a hand in 31 straight cleveland points in the 4th quarter]

5.   37 pts,  14 rebs, 12 assists.....triple double in dominant fashion

6.   satellite sports radio is calling him the most single dominant player on any team in nba history --- unfotrtunately for him he does not have a legit #2 scorer on the team.   The moderators thought that even the haters should be able to see that now -- but it appears that may not be the case.

I listent to everything...
 
satellite radio in office (ESPN Radio, Mad Dog Radio) and in my car Fox Sports Radio
 
commentary, which I feel is objective, acknowledges that what LBJ is doing is historical and legendary.   He clearly does not have the help -- cavs have been exposed.....the fans should see that, the cavs GM should see that....and the haters should see it too.
 
we should be appluading LBJ for an incredible performance but then at the same time saying that team still needs a lot of work to build a team that can compete for a title vs. other solid contending teams
 
For instance, Cavs was down 22 points last night and I bet many people said, I think they might come back -- it only took them 7 minutes and bam they were down by 1 at the half
If the cavs go down by 22 points in Orlando --- GAME OVER
 
That is another indicator that one team is a true team and can get back in the game a lot of different ways -- while the other team needs a KING to carry them back into a game if they are trailing big or need to get shots up in a tight ball game late in the game.
 
I admire and recognize greatness with LBJ...but he clearly needs help if he is to get to the next level and win a title.

typo, I mean to say orlando was down 22 points but everyone knew or felt that orlando could probably get back in the game -- and they did so in 1 quarter they erased the deficit and trailed by 1 point.
 
as fans we did not have to say Howard has to help Orlando do it, or Turkuloo had to help orlando do it or Lewis had help Orlando to do it....they did it as a team and it wasa team effort.
 
if cavs were down 22 points...we all know LBJ would have to be the guy that has to be on his game or the game is OVER.

HEY JB .....YOUR FUCKIN OUT....
 
lol...What a great show....LBJ is not human..bottom line...he will be the tiger woods of his sport...he is built like a brick shit house and plays point..NO point guard on this planet can guard him...that alone makes him one of the best EVER..he is a showboat and the commercial where he is a puppet and keeps slapping the chalk the whole time is f-ing hilarious...he is also very young & definately immature..and has made the NBA a must watch if he is in the playoff's ...he is STERNS cash cow as we all know so I wouldn't be surprised if this goes to 7 your bet is just wishful thinking..BOL but you have no chance to win that bet I will put 5 dimes on it right now.....let me know if you accept...
 
in the words of an HBO up and coming legend!
-ORL winning in game 6 your FUCKIN OUT!

Think about this......


If Lebron was on either: 

Lakers
Magic
Nuggets

I can with 90% certainty he would win a Championship THIS year.

If Pierce (finals MVP) and L. James switched places last year, Boston probably would have swept the Lakers.

His supporting cast sucks and they benefit from a dominant player and strong play at home.  Playoffs are a whole new season.

They need Shaq, or Amare(if he can stay healthy)  and a solid 15-20 ppg SG that could compliment LBJ and they would be dynasty material!

"He is a good player. Not in the leagues top 4."

let me guess, you're under 25 & just lost a bet of some sort.

another novice, soon enough you realise James' talents.

My opinion & your opinion mean nothing right now, yet give it 3 or 4 years & your hat will be tipped.

Don't embarass your self with some inane response, it's futile

Ok, this guy is on some kind of drug, LBJ numbers are gonna be right there with some of the leagues greatest. You must be kidding, and yes i think this guy lost his ass off and decided to start a stupid thread like this. I have to say, I fell for it, because you can't be serious kid.

lebron is definitely over-rated, but also phenomenal at the same time. I love his game, but hate they way he carries himself. No need to talk in the 3rd person lebron, I know you didn't go to college, and prob barely passed HS but come on dog..
tony parker has no business being in the top 5.
in no particular order. wade,kobe,lebron,dwight,paul
then go guys like duncan, amare, parker, dirk nash,

im over 25, and by posting my 16:1 shot that the magic win in 7..i would love to see a game 7. Nick on the cavs moneyline, dimebird on the magic with the points.

 

and i like the fact that you brought out your thesaurus for 'inane' and 'futile', but left the dictionary at home when its time for me to...

REALISE something...

Lebron is overrated?? umm...ok.  If you said something like the Cavs are overrated, fair enough, but Lebron is overrated?? Thanks for coming out...
If you were starting a team, you would take the following players in this order??
4. tony parker
3. mello
2. dwade
1. kobe
Sorry my man, but either you know absolutely nothing about b-ball, you are from LA or Orlando, or you are smoking some pretty good stuff.  The only player on that list who is maybe arguably better than Lebron is Kobe, but then again, he is nothing without Shaq.

I hope the magic close this thing out in 6 and everyone stands on the press table and claps chalk in the cavs face. The guy won a game for his team in game 2..but lost it for them in game 4..7 4th quarter turnovers.
 
If i was Van Gundy, I would run his ass ragged. Play Gortat more, to have him use 6 hard fouls on him. Make whoever he is guarding run through screens like Ray Allen or Reggie Miller.
 
All of the fucking cockyness is so fucking old. Youve hit 2 game winners in your life pal. The only one that mattered was a fucking prayer..(he looked more shocked than anyone that it went in)..you get a breakaway dunk and stop and pose after every fucking shot. I wish basketball had a baseball etiquette, where if you pose like an asshole you get popped in the mouth the next time...you got no rings on your finger. and the cockyness spreads..booby gibson (love the kid, he should be getting more time then Dwest) is hanging his followthru like hes mike fucking jordan to pull his team within 2 because hes following James lead. Its just so frustrating as a basketball fan to see this cockmeat sandwitch get all this praise..
 
and before you guys ask
 
4. tony parker
3. mello
2. dwade
1. kobe

 

Dang, you lost your argument after the first sentence.
