Hey Joakim Noah

 

[Clinton91]

Were 24-28 86% on free throws tonight......it helps that Jamison hasn't shot any.:chuckles:

Bryant has 4 rings worth of cache to do that type of stuff. James has 5 years of LeIso.

But Kobe Bryant also did it before he had any rings, as did Jordan, actually.

At the end of games, superstars are going to have the ball and take shots. Like I said, I hate the dribbling 35 feet from the basket, but I do not mind him taking jumpshots late in games because good teams are going to make him hit those.

 

[Clinton91]

pet peeve right there.....not playing defense to the end of the game....for some reason it irks me.

 

[wremy]

Had the Cavs -8..........unfucking believable....nice shot Tawn...jesus christ

 

[Glenechocreek]

And he and Phil Jackson clashed often.

You're insane for betting on the Cavs to cover a point spread against an injury depleted team the night after a big party LeBron hosted where most, if not all of the team probably partook in some adult beverage consumption.

 

[Clinton91]

And he and Phil Jackson clashed often.

He made a book about it, also he said Kobe was the worst teamate he ever coached.

 

[InBoobieWeTrust]

Correct.

But we don't have Phil Jackson, and Mike Brown(don't get me wrong, I like Mike Brown, good coach, obviously has flaws) probably won't clash with LeBron James over late game offense. Defense might be another story though. The problem I see there is the obvious, LeBron isn't being lazy at the end of games, he probably just thinks that the best chance at winning is with Le-Iso.

I honestly think the two best ways to combat it, are with Windhorst dogging him in the paper about it, which has happened but isn't always effective.

And the most effective, and we saw it earlier this year, was Shaq basically telling him "run a fucking play". That worked well, actually. Shaq is our best hope to stop Le-Iso in its' tracks.

 

[wuck]

Cavs are 25-11 on the road, on pace to achieve their best road record in team history.

It's hard to believe some nights. But they keep grinding out wins.

Which means he doesn't fully trust his teamates....he's got Mo, AJ who we should post up you know it might work, and Delonte who can all get there own.....if he continues to play this way we will not win a championship

1.I was unaware of that
2.That is no excuse to play like shit vs. a team minus its 3 best players...actually its pathetic
3.I was a Jamison 15 ft brick away from being OK and a last sec 3.....Cavs effort has been disgusting lately...I thought they'd be ready to make a statement soon but instead they just show everybody else they still don't have a killer instinct after 7 years of LBJ on the roster....losing a lil bit money isn't as frustrating to me as it is to watch this shit I've witnessed the last 4 games....all wins great but we should be starting to peak now not playing even with shit teams like Det,Ind,and Chi who were all missing key pieces....MB does a shit job of motivating these guys
