    Mike Brown. Mike Brown. Mike Brown. Captain Clueless. If the Cavs waste LeBron's effort all people will talk about is Mike Brown and he will deserve it.

    Regardless of what happens, LeBron has made huge strides in my book. What a player.

    he doesn't have a jumper, but with the new rules he doesn't really need it.

    and there's no reason he shouldn't be the best player in the league with his physical talent. if he had wade's relentless drive to the basket or kobe's skills, he would be illegal. as it is, he's still the best when really determined, and that's w/o a jumpshot. so for everyone else's sake, hopefully cleveland doesn't get too much talent or lebron never learns how to shoot well.

    On those two plays, Big Ben could have made the difference, but it's more than just that.

    there's a reason he's called the king. at this rate, he could be the best player in history. he's progressing faster than anticipated.

    he has a very good jumper. not great, but very good. and that will only improve. and he does penetrate. but he has a better J than wade so he will shoot that. that's why i dont think wade can carry a team like lebron can as we saw by the .500 record w/o shaq.

    i dont really think wade is on bron's level. the ring kinda overrated wade. i dont think wade is on tmac's level. he hasn't shown he can't do anything w/o shaq.

    bron though has eclipsed kobe. why? bron has the willingness to pass. this is why ppl need to stop saying kobe's teammates suck. bron doesn't have the very best teammates but he makes them better. sure he's in the east but u can see bron's willingness to pass.

    and wow, look at that behind the back J. my goodness

    Double down on Lebron. Mike Brown needs to pull some creativity out of his ass or the role players need to step up.

    ...and Lebron goes behind the back and knocks down a jumper to shut me up. I think Lebron might cure cancer during the next timeout.

    man lebron has scored the last 20 points. THe cavs are terrible without him. lebron might have a worse supporting cast than tmac or yao.

    Everybody here says James can't make a jumper. But now he hit two clutch jumpers in overtime.

    Stupidass Collins keeps harping on Damon Jones on defense, as if Daniel Gibson was Michael Cooper.

    3 possessions going against Jones - 1 difficult turnaround jumper (made); 1 bad pass thrown away (TO), one missed running jumper. I'll take that.

    Amen my brother. Kobe may be the best individual, but in a real world team aspect it's Lebron no doubt.

    Webber and 1, Big Z fouls out. Man, Lebron's job just got a little harder.

    no, did u see game 3 and 4? his supporting cast stepped up.

    lebron is on w/ his J right now. if his J is off, cavs would lose. he's as on fire as he can get right now. why go away from him?

    no, lebron is physically the most talented player in the history of the game outside of shaq. he's more talented than kobe.

    kobe's 3 rings are what allowing him to have that "best player" status. the same reason w/ wade.

    bron has never have the help of those 2.

    best baller in the game right now hands down. no ifs and buts. dude is monstrous.

    i hope tmac sees this game and fixes his J. u see how a good jumper goes a long way.

    the reason why i love lebron's game is b/c he's UNSELFISH. he wants his teammates to succeed. he's similar to tmac in that way.
