    What does that say about his lack of a championship since it is so easy in that conference? Keep talking LeBum, I'm lovin' it.

    It doesn't say anything about his lack of a championship. It's not really that hard to understand what he is saying.

    How about the fact that these 3 played together on the Olympic team during the summer and are friends, which should add chemistry. I am surprised that they don't have chemistry like Boston did right away. I thought it would take them until next year to be good enough to win a title though. They need another offseason of vets signing for the minimum and salary cap exceptions to add quality depth.

    Not really, Lebron is a 2x MVP, this has pretty much secured his spot in the hall of fame.

    Please, if the competition isn't as hard as he says he'd have something to show for it by now. That is easy to understand.

    I wish NBA playoffs were a different format. Make winning your division actually meaningful.

    What's even scarier than a Lebron/Wade/Bosh/Miller combo?

    Them messing around and not making the playoffs and getting a high draft pick to help them even more in the future.

    Lol you seriously don't get it.

    He is talking about getting into the playoffs. So he's talking about the bottom half of the East. He's not saying the top half of the East is easy.


    Considering he hasn't lost a playoff game to the teams that hover around .500 as he said in the quote you don't have a single point made.

    It's a pretty simple ass concept.

    If the Heat were in the West with this start there would be questions would they even make the playoffs.

    With the East 6-8 being weak there is no question about them making the playoffs only about the competing with the top teams in the East.

    James should just shut his mouth and prove first that he has heart. He is a laughingstock already at a very young age. What a waste of talent.

    I heard they've gelled in international games from you and t_mac1, and they'll dominate from the get-go.

    So you disagree with his statement that the competition in the east to get into the play-offs is not as hard as in the West?

    I think how Lebron handled the situation of the move to the heat was classless, but lets not bash everything he says (especially not when it is true).

    Yea, and what's stupid is they are young enough to tank 3 seasons in a role, get 3 top 3 picks, and are still in their prime to contend
