Distraction from what? This board NEVER blames any of our playoff failures on LeBron's teammates. I just find it comical. I watched the same series you did. And I saw our bench fail to show up, MB outcoached, Mo getting destroyed, Jamison getting destroyed, etc. You can blame LeBron all you want. He could have played better. But I am not going to give the rest a pass. No way in hell. We lost the Boston series because we were starting 3 players that couldn't defend (Mo, Jamison, and Shaq) and non-existent bench production. And to be fair to Shaq, the man tried. He really did. He was just too old.
