Remember in 2007 when Cleveland made it to the NBA Finals? Maybe because it was the most boring and lopsided finals in my lifetime, with San Antonio sweeping Cleveland 4-0 in unexciting fashion. Where was LeBron’s $70 million sidekick Larry Hughes? Making ONE shot in the whole series! One. Some second banana. He started games one and two shooting a combined 1 for 10 in 44 minutes of game action. He had more fouls and turnovers (5) than assists and steals (3), and ended up sitting out games 3 and 4 (which Cleveland only lost by a combined 4 points, after losing the two Hughes games by 20) with a suspicious injury. It should also be pointed out that it was not just the Finals where Larry disappeared that year. As the playoffs wore on, Hughes’ numbers got worse and worse. In the Eastern Conference Finals series versus Detroit, Hughes averaged 41 minutes, 11 field goals attempted, and 3 field goals made in the two losses, while he only played an average of 24 minutes, with 5 field goals attempted, and 2 field goals made per loss. Less Larry equaled more success for Cleveland in the playoffs, which is really a shame considering he made $13.4 million that season, and was handed the keys as the undisputed second option prior to the season....i would have left too

I don't see how anything I said was rewriting history. And we've seen how far teams where Melo is the best scorer have gone throughout Melo's career. Absolutely no where.
It's true that they should not have lost to Greece, but its a one and done tournament. It ain't a series. Any team can get a victory on a given night due to various scenarios and circumstances. Even the 92 dream team lost to a team of college players, scrimmage or not a L is a L. So like I said, anything can happen in one game.
what a bizarre point to make :laugh:

and they should not have lost to Greece, end of discussion.

for a 6'6 shooting guard :skip:


what stat shows the most effort?

:skip:

A lot of rebounding opportunities in that game. :mjpls:

6-24 shows a lot of effort. Most people would have stopped gunning before that point.



Meanwhile, Bron had 18 rebounds against the Pacers... along with 40 points.

it boggles my mind now thinking about how much hate Bron got....for you know actually waiting for his contract to be over and leaving as a FREE agent.......he didn't bytch to ownership(Kobe)........he didn't demand trades and say he will only sign with certain teams(Dwight)....he didn't tell them "hey you guys got one year to trade me"(Melo)

he signed for 6 years and play his ass off till his contract was done


i salute you Lebron James for not only being the best player alive but being a great human being

Still doesn't change shyt that LeBron pulled a hoe move by running to Wade and bringing RuPaul with him so they could all team up. LeBron ain't a boss. DRose is more bossed out than LeBron. :deadrose:

LOL @ running to Wade, yet Bron is winning league and finals MVP's owning the team.

I dont' get it.

You guys give more props to GM's and players who bytch GM's into getting players around them than one who did so on his own terms.

It's pathetic.

You're right. You don't get it.

LeBron winning MVPs don't change the fact that he ran to Wade with Bosh.
