Lakers owns. I hope that the Wizards will win Cleveland Cavaliers. Lebron James is so fucking overrated.

Your so right, because he only carried his team to the championship last year. Imo James doesn't get enough credit for what he does. The Wizards don't deserve to win, they talk so much crap and whine when they get beaten by the one man army.

Put Lebron James in the west and see that he doesn't have these kind of stats there.

rabbb 1 May 2008, 22:08
So you think that the conf. he is in affects his shots? When Kobe plays against the east does he do better then when he plays the west? Not really.

Split 1 May 2008, 22:31
EAST IS WEAK, Lebron can lead his team to victories by himself, because there is almost zero competition. The only really strong teams are Detroit and Boston, and last year the only strong team was Detroit, who really didn't play that well in Eastern Conference Finals last year.

And Lebron thinks too much of himself because when he said " Nobody has had the injuries, that we had this year... ", that was just so lame, because Lakers' injuries have been much worse than theirs. Lebron couldn't play, because his non-shooting arm's pinky got bruised and he couldn't dunk anymore... OH SO SAD! Kobe plays with a torn ligament in his shooting hands finger and he plays just as well.

So think again if you say, that Lebron isn't overrated.

I never heard James whine about any of his injuries, and before you start worshipping Kobe need I remind you that Kobe has stars on his team and James does not. James has carried his team into the post season, Kobe could barely get there until the Lakers added some stars.

Again, let him get his team in to the postseason by himself in the west.

Lebron doesn't have stars ? :O How about Zydrunas Ilgauskas, a 2-time all-star. How about Ben Wallace, a 4-time DPOY. How about Boobie, a really promising PG who has gone to a new level in his game. How about Wally Szerbiak, a sharpshooter ?

Get your facts right please.

Btw, he is whining here

Zydrunas Ilgauskas has arthritis and is too old to be of much use. Ben Wallace USED to be a dpoy but now he is useless. He didn't do anything with the Bulls after they traded for him and he's not doing anything now. A promising point guard isn't a star either, James is the only guy on that team that isn't too old or two young. On the point of Wally, are you kidding me? Wally hasn't done crap since they traded for him, in fact I don't think he even scores consistantly.

When we look at the Cavs we see one guy that gets above twenty points every game. When I look at the Lakers I see two, three if Bynum plays. You really back up your arguments with ancient facts. James plays on a team of players who are about to retire, on a team of former stars, and old stars aren't very useful in their old age.

I don't see James whining about the seriousness of his injury anywhere in that article.

He didn't whine about his own injuries, but he whined about the team's injuries which have been minor compared to Lakers' injuries. The point is, that he missed six games with an injury, that is totally playable.

And my arguments aren't ancient facts. I guess you haven't seen, how good Wallace has been in these PO series. He has never been a 20-10 guy, but he is a god damn 5-10 guy who can drop like 6 or 7 blocks and can alter like 20 shots a night. And Zydrunas can drop 15-15 on you on any given night.

I must say you are very biased towards the Lakers. Wallace is old, the only reason he has done anything in the playoffs is because they are triple teaming James, the same goes for Ilgauskas. Losing James for even one game is a huge blow to the Cavs, while the Lakers have plenty of stars to pick up the slack.

When Andrew Bynum is back the Lakers really have a great team!
But they wont sweep the Spurs/Jazz ;)

Boston lost 2nd game against the Hawks but i think they will win the next 2 games.
My bet for the Finals is 4-2 for the Celtics vs the Lakers but i wont bet money on this ;)

The Celtics aren't really proving to me that they deserve a championship. I think they will get bashed down by Howard and the Magic.

I'm calling a Lakers vs. Magic championship with the Lakers winning in 6.

Giko 30 Apr 2008, 12:35
I dont think that the Magic are strong enough to beat the Pistons (or Sixers) and then in the Conference Finals the Celtics.
Nelson is to weak for a Final Team. He isnt the right PG for Dwight/Hedo/Lewis
Parent
▼
rabbb 30 Apr 2008, 22:54
I'll agree with you on Nelson, but I think the Magic have the best teamwork out of all of the teams in the east. The Celtics three stars are their downfall and the Piston's glory days are behind them.

Giko 30 Apr 2008, 23:48
There arent only the big three. perkins and rondo are doing there jobs really great! rondo is maybe the pointguard with the best defense in the hole nba! this year he improved his jump shot and now is the nearly perct point guard for a team with 3 stars.

Dont forget the Cavs! Bron can win Matches/Playoffs alone like u have seen last year vs the Pistons.

LeBron is having trouble beating the Wizards, I doubt he can carry his team to the championships again. While the Celtics do have other players I still think they rely on their starting three too much. That was the downfall of the Suns, they didn't use their bench at all.
Parent

Giko 2 May 2008, 15:27
The Celtics will beat the Hawks today and the Cavs gonna kill the Wizards in 1 of the next 2 games.
Bron will win 2 Games in the 2nd Round for the Cavs but the rest of the Cavs is really to weak to beat the Celtics
The other 2nd Round game between the Magic and the Pistons could be great. I think we gonna see minimum 6 games but i think (hope) that we see 7 exciting games.
In the Final the Celtics will beat the Magic/Pistons anyway ;)
[sorry for my english skills -.-]

You called the Celtics smack down, and the Lakers just embarrassed the Jazz. I'm excited to watch the Celtics Cavs series though.
