    We all know that. I am just referring to your post in which you said BOTH Lewis' and Lebron's shots are MIRACLE shots, which is not true in the former case.

    give lebron pau gasol and this series would be over in 5 in favor of the magic. it's a disgrace how his teammates have let lebron down repeatedly over this entire series.

    i really think if they lose this series, you're gonna see lebron doing something crazy b/c he is playing out of this world.

    agreed, this is why i feel bad for lebron , no help at all, wtf, dude could have avg a double double with his assist that his team mate tent to miss. LBJ, leave cavs and go find a team that will get you the supporting case that can help you win a ring.

    This series means a lot more than JUST a final appearance for the Cavaliers fans.

    If Cavaliers don't win this one, its a very good chance he will bolt. Why play with teammates who don't show up for postseason?

    Not buying that garbage. Kobe has the better sidekick, but his supporting cast is no better than LeBron's.

    Kobe is better than LeBron. This series is not proving it, but Kobe is better than LBJ

    Amazing how you bring your Battier hate even into a thread that isn't even related to the Rockets.

    And they had one of the best records at that point too. The Celts were getting a lot of love also. The best performing teams at any point are favored, it wasn't a stretch.

    Name the next two best players on each team and try to justify that.

    he has pau gasol, a legit 20 and 10 player providing inside presence. lebron has nobody close.

    kobe has multiple big men who can score, lebron has a jumpshooter in Z. varajao and ben wallace can't even throw up a rock if you give them the rock.

    wally is lebron's best scorer of the bench. nuff said.

    it's not even close talent-wise from both teams.

    Yup, it's pathetic how his supporting cast has played this game.

    Wow 3 games to 1? I didn't see the game.

    But wow. All I can say is Dwight Howard is a BEAST. As much as I love Yao....I'd LOVE to have him on the Rockets.

    I blame this loss on Mike Brown and floppy hair. How do you let Howard get 3 straight dunks to start OT and not foul him once? You still have Joe Smith and Wallace on the pine........

    Yup. It would sadden me deeply, but I don't blame Lebron for bolting if his teammates keeping drinking cans of FAIL this whole series.

    I always put it like this, Kobe is more skilled then Lebron, but Lebron is the better athlete even when compared to Kobe at his age.

    Right now, his supporting cast has apparently bought to much of their own hype during the break between rounds and are suffering for it, thinking they really were untouchable.


    Also congrats to Rafer Alston, you have played a damn fine series, like figured you would. Hell better then I thought he would.

    And who's Kobe's best scorer off the bench? Lamar Odom? He's only good when he's consistent, but that happens every blue moon.

    LeBron has a better defensive supporting cast, Kobe has the better shooting supporting cast. Kobe does have a better supporting cast, but not as much as most people imply.

    You can't be serious right now.

    Gasol has played pretty good for the Lakers.

    Ariza has played good this playoffs outside of yesterdays game.

    Not one Cavs role player has stepped up this series.
