    Both are also suffering injuries to their second best players and have lost other important players altogether due to injury.

    As I mentioned earlier they also had role players come up big in the playoffs for wins.

    Outside of Wade/Bosh, I really think LeBron has a much better supporting cast now. Not as much experience, of course, but younger and more talented.

    The way Lebron James talks about these grown men like they are his kids has to be really emasculating for his teammates. That **** would piss me off. I understand he has a lot of experience , but talk to me like a man. All this bull **** about him changing his temperament back to when he had his first child, reporters asking Kyrie if Lebron is like a father figure is bull****. I would be flipping tables.

    Call me crazy, but I think that Atlanta wouldn't have passed the first round if they were playing in the western conference.

    They don't even need Kyrie for this series. Rest him up for the finals to play the Rockets or Warriors (most likely the Rockets.)

    Nothing crazy about this statement. They probably beat Portland, Dallas, and the Pelicans, but none of the others.

    Not crazy at all. They needed 6 games to beat the Brooklyn Nets for God's sake!

    Is it just me, or do it look like Lebron have transended to another level


    I don't think I've ever seen him play this good before. Not that he's scoring a bazillion points, but the way he's playing now, he just makes the game look so........easy. And effortless.

    It's like he's not even trying hard out there.

    Thought so too at first, but they may have called the left arm to the chest. Still a pretty weak call tho...
