    Lebron would instantly be somewhere below Vernon Maxwell and Tim Breaux in terms of heart and desire.

    Blasphemy. If that were to happen, LeBron would fall below Zan Tabak and Rodrick Rhodes.

    Yeah, he was saying Shaq can't be their leading scorer if they want to win. He is exactly right, even Kevin Durant gave a better performance in the playoffs than LeBron did in terms of trying. Even when KD was shooting bad he would keep trying, LeBron flat out gave up tonight.

    I see everyone calling out Lebron but did he mail it in or just have a bad night? I didn't see the game so just really curious.

    But this is what you said

    Hakeem was a superduper star and never had a game like this.

    The media and ESPN had the balls to say that LeBron would go down as the greatest player in the history of the NBA.

    It seems like he didnt really try to be aggressive.

    He's the best player in the NBA but his role players didn't even step up.

    Conspiracy theorists believe he mailed in it because he was just jacking up three pointers and wasn't driving in and getting his teammates involved.

    But why? He did mail it in tonight. Whether he mailed it in with an injury or mailed it in mentally, he did. The King is NOT entitled to bad games. It is unacceptable in accordance with the prophecy.

    I wasn't alive for the earlier years of Dream, but I believe that he had problems with the org in the late 80s/early 90s and the Rockets were trying to move him, not to mention his penchant for fighting before his conversion. Someone's who been a Rocket fan for longer than me can correct me.

    I didn't watch the game, but maybe the Celtics (Thibodeau) just know how to defend him?

    The Rockets have had great success against LeBron James too. Put a smart, veteran team with a good defensive game plan on him, and he can be contained. That's when his teammates are supposed to step up, but the Cavs' offensive attack is so ridiculously one-sided that no one else can pick up the slack.

    First if all if lebron was the rockets, then they should put a statue of Morey next to hakeem's in front of Toyota center.

    Let's see how many times that happens. Clearly lebron is their best player. Let's see which lebron shows up next game. I know you are a tmac fan and trying your best dude! I ain't falling for that. Lebron put Cleveland on the map. He should get a pass from the fans.

    It wasnt really his stats, he was really passive and non-emotional.

    He had really bad body language tonight. As if he just wanted the game to be over
