NBA 10-11

Is Brown really that bad? I mean Lebron did take the Cavs to the finals (without Wade and Bosh).

FTFY

Basically, Cleveland was about as successful as this current Miami team. But Cleveland did it without Bosh and Wade. If Brown was so horrible, then how do you account for that?

Lebron. It's pretty simple. Basketball is a type of game in which the best player on a team can determine the outcome because the ball can always be placed in his hands. And when that one player is the best on the planet, he can carry a team pretty far.

What are the chances in the postgame if they win it all that LeBron or Wade mistake no one wanting them to do it with no one believing they can do it?

[Faceman]

Yeah, you guys are right. They are not the one man show they appear to be.

Losing 4-1 at home, as the number one seed. If the bulls are not overrated, then you are saying the heat played above their heads or the bulls cropped the bed.

I'm saying the Heat were underrated.

Yeah, can't argue that. I guess I'm just disappointed. Not a Bulls fan but I do root for them, and while I wasn't surprised they lost, I am really surprised this team went out in 5. Maybe that is more of a reflection on the Heat.

What's more than 100%?

I'll give 1-10 odds.

I don't necessarily agree with that. Kobe's Lakers were really good with Shaq, not so good when Shaq left, and really good again when they got him some help (Gasol).

Yeah, we've seen what LeBron does by himself for the last 8 years. A lot, but not enough. Now he's got help. He's free to rest on offense, not carry an insane load and because of that, he's got tons of energy to shut down the opponents best player in crunch time. It's really been revelatory watching him operate as a part of a cog rather than pulling the cart by himself.

We'll see if it's enough. The Mavs could be a load.

OK, you're right. Cleveland got as far as they did because of Mike Brown's coaching. Having Lebron was just a bonus. I forgot they had Anderson Varejao too.

The Mavs will be their easiest series of the playoffs. I'm really going to be surprised if this series even goes 6 games.

Wow.
