Re: ***Official 2007 NBA Playoffs Discussion Thread***

thing is, he will always make more money from his endorsment deals than what he makes in the NBA.. or pretty dang close..

yeah, i dont see him leaving Ohio either...

Let's Go Cavs..

Re: ***Official 2007 NBA Playoffs Discussion Thread***

I doubt that he'll ever leave Ohio anyway.

But he needs to play in a big market like N.Y or L.A! Its the only way people will ever know who he is; even though we have 24 hour sport networks and this new internets thing!

If he stays in Cleveland its like he is playing in the CFL!

Re: ***Official 2007 NBA Playoffs Discussion Thread***

IMO he would rather play in Cleveland than in a big Market.. sometime guys commit career suicide when going to play in a big market.. b/c they can never live up to the expectations..

I wouldn't be surprised to see Detroit come back and win out. If you think about it, the Cavs only won by two when LeBron had the game of his career. He won't have those numbers next game, and he certainly won't be as dominant(or at least I hope not).

The Cavs didn't play that well last night, bar LeBron's performance. He is the sole reason they are leading the series. If the Pistons can contain LeBron, the series is over and we will see a Pistons vs. Spurs rematch.

I still see this series deadlocked. Could go either way.

When one player is scoring his team's 25/30 final points.. that's depending an awful lot on one player.

I know you're joking but I don't get the people who actually believe that he has to go to a place like New York to make endorsement money. He can pretty much do anything he wants and he gets to do it in his home state.

Well, the entire Pistons team couldn't stop one guy from scoring his team's only points at the end of regulation and in overtime.

And the rest of the Cavs went 0-10 in FG's. LeBron's supporting cast isn't too good, so if the Pistons can contain him, they have a chance.

If it was that easy then they would've been able to do it more often. And yeah, his teammates aren't the best but if they actually make shots then they won't have to rely on Lebron for all the scoring.

I'm still in awe after watching that game last night. Best game I've seen in years.

It may be difficult, but it is not impossible. They seemed to contain him in the first two games, but like the Pistons do, they let him go.

I doubt that LeBron will have to put up that kind of performance again to close it out because alot of those role players who don't show up on the road usually show up at home. Detroit containing him doesn't seem to be the problem though.. Game 1 Lebron had 10 points, yet Cleveland only lost by 3. If they're gonna contain LeBron they have to contain all aspects of his game (Pts/Reb/Ast) which I just don't see happening.
