Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Note: This is NOT intended to be a troll/flame post

I couldn't agree more with crabby. I think there has been a serious curtain pulled over everyone's eyes concerning Mike Brown and the true strength of this Cleveland team. LeBron has spoiled everyone with his play but he cannot win a championship on his own, it's just not gonna happen. I'm not saying that this series is even close to being over, but even if they make it past the C's they won't win it all. It's just not there. You have to have strong coaching and talent to get it done. Hindsight is always 20/20 but I'm honesty not surprised Cleveland is in the situation they are right now. You guys need a new coach :(

Without addressing the coaching issues (that's another topic in my mind), we could very easily have as good of a chance as any to win the title this year if Lebron comes out and plays as aggressively as he can.

Literally, when he comes out aggressive as possible, there is no team that can beat us, at all. We saw the difference even in the regular season between aggressive Lebron and LeCoast. It literally changes the entire complexion of the team. It's not an exaggeration to say that we would be out in the first round if he plays like this every game, and we could sweep the Finals if he plays with full aggression.

His effort usually falls somewhere in between. Lately, it's completely bottomed out. Change that, and the series (and postseason) changes completely.
 
I think Lebron didn't like the game plan lastnight and basically just acted like a baby while not caring on the court. It seemed like he was holding back at every moment. It felt very much like he was trying not to be apart of what was going on.
 
Hollinger had in interesting article about how Lebron passed up a plethora of jump shots last night and the ones he shot were short and flat. Also points out that the games we have done well there has been alot of time off in between games. If Lebron really is hurt and limited offensively we have to run more plays for AJ. he can beat Garnett off the dribble and get to the hole. This takes the pressure of LBJ and hopefully can get his mind stable.
