    Re: The LeBron James Saga

    1) That Heat team had a lot more depth than this one. However, it's probably one of the worst championship teams ever so I don't put so much stock in Wade and Haslem having a ring that everything will be OK.

    2) Mo did disappear during the playoffs, but the No. 1 reason the Cavaliers were frontrunners that failed in the playoffs was coaching. I'll reserve judgment on the Heat's coaching situation because I won't put it past Pat Riley to step into the coach's chair.
    After more than eight years on here, I finally figured out how to edit my time zone!

      I look foward to the Heat getting to the Finals, and then getting destroyed by the Lakers.

        As much as it pains me, I think it could be the opposite easily.

        That is the matchup I want no doubt about it, purely for entertainment reasons.

          I am not saying pencil Miami into the Finals but if they lose it won't be because anyone of them are "front runners". That's preposterous. They'll lose because of injury or lack of depth of big men
          Yeah. Cuz injuries had NOTHING to do with the Cavs losing, lol. They just sucked amrite?

          Ghost Mo dropped 20 in the first half of game 5, and was the only reason they won game one.

            Yea you right Ex. You never know. It would be a crime if these two teams don't meet in the Finals.

              EDIT: I'm actually not sure what you're talking about with the injuries, not sure if you were joking or not.

              If you were being serious, then proceed to my reply.

              Where did I say they just sucked? Come on HM don't read in to things that aren't there.

              I was simply making the point that the Heat aren't front runners.

              And Mo Williams was ghost in the playoffs the last two seasons. Fact.

                  Have your game 1 win...

                  Dude was nowhere to be found when things were on the line. Not sure which Mo Williams you were watching

                    Re: The LeBron James Saga

                    Here's the lead for the recap of game 1:

                    Mo Williams(notes) finally rose to the occasion—literally.



                    Dude was ghost and everyone knew it.

                    Also James' 35, 7 and 7 weren't bad either. Mo was the only reason they won game one? Not a chance

                      Oops, meant game 6. Y'know..the elimination game...my bad, lol.

                      Mo was a third wheel cast as a second, true. Mo was the Cav's defensive weak link, true. But it's revisionist bull to just act like Mo did nothing at all. You better than that.

                        Nice stats. They were still losing. Did you read the recap you just posted?

                          Yep, but don't sit there and say Mo was the only reason they won.

                          Please.

                          Mo will be the first guy to tell you to your face that he wilted the past two years in the playoffs and let his team down. I guarantee you 100% undisputed no about it.

                            Did you watch the game? The Cavs were getting spanked until Mo dunked on PP and then ran off something like 8-10 straight. Mo single-handedly changed the momentum of that game. If that doesn't happen, the Cavs lose. Period.

                              Seriously though, James can't help it if ESPN is all over their nuts. I doubt any of you have actually watched James practice during his time in HS and in Cleveland. I would wager he is practicing pretty similar as to how he did throughout his entire career. Just more media attention obviously for his new team.

                              He really isn't doing anything diva-ish outside of his idiotic comment about the race issue.

                              I misread your post, when you said "LBJ is looking for attention" I wasn't sure if you were referring to his idiotic race comment or how he was practicing "intensely".

                              I'm assuming you were referring to the former?

                              Anyway besides that, I just find it funny when people on message boards call him out for "practicing hard or intense" and then always bring up how he dances on the sidelines like the two have anything to do with one another. I guess they think having fun and playing around at the end of games means they don't practice hard? Or something like that? I guess these same people have seen how the guy has been practicing his entire career?
                              Dude if you wanna call people out just drop the name don't act like a punk about it. I was mainly making a joke based on the post before me because practice and the dancing doesn't doesn't really have anything to do with each other. However dude opening his mouth and acting like he's on point focused and intense and too much of a leader to carry himself any differently or let his team slack has a lot to do with him dancing up and down the court like a jack--- when his team is blowing someone out and then he's ghosting off the floor when he loses and as has been pointed out already, quitting on his team in the most important game of the year.

                                Sounds like your feelings are hurt, it's not that serious. I wasn't trying to "call anyone out", or call you out in particular so my bad if you took it that way. I'm just saying it's funny how people connect his dancing on the sidelines to how he practices.

                                If they're joking about it, it's not all that funny. It just makes them look bitter that their team got beat and then danced on.

                                And HM, whatever man, if you think Mo was the sole reason for the win have at it. LBJ hit some big shots down the stretch and his stat line was ridiculous as usual. I guess it's routine for him to have that sort of production.
