It's not that I'm not appreciating his level of play, it's fun as hell to see someone can ball like that, but spare me the generic 'LeBron's on a mission' comments until he actually does something when it matters. The excuses are gone now, he now has everything he needs. It's no different than when you have a team that's been a doormat, or at least consistent losers finally make the playoffs, yes, those first two or three trips good to see them in the postseason but at a certain point just being in the playoffs isn't good enough anymore. If LeBron is on a mission again that lasts up until the start of the Finals when the Heat need him or they don't even make it back to the Finals cause he disappeared again then seriously does this **** even matter?
    Well I'll let you feel like that man.....I get what your saying, but I can't watch great players ball and say "none of this matters if he doesn't win a ship"

    Something tells me you won't feel the same about Durant/ Rose in 3-4 years or Howard next year though, lol

    Good basketball is good basketball IMO

            As a geniune fan of his, I know it's tough to see him aging, but he still brings value to the frontcourt. If he had better frontcourt mates, not including Splitter and Jefferson, he wouldn't look as bad. Sadly, the front-office's idea of help is Matt Bonner and (as a starter) DeJuan Blair.

            Pop should have look for a replace for Bonner two years ago. ****, I'd take Anthony Tolliver or Ian Mahinmi back over Matt Bonner.

                This is the kind of night where you miss Manu Ginobili, especially when Duncan is non-factor on offense. I miss the old in-and-out motion offense from Duncan's prime. We're too much of a perimeter based offense to make serious noise in the playoffs.

                Ridiculous how Spurs drive and don't get the whistle, but the Thunder drive and get the call everytime. I hate NBA refs!!!

                        Splitter has some pretty moves in the post, but he doesn't finish strong or consistently enough. Pop is torturing me with more Matt Bonner. Doubt we see anymore Parker or Duncan.

                            Suns looking good against a banged up Milwaukee team.

                            Shots are falling, thank goodness.
