They're built for the regular season, like the Mavericks. Playing a different opponent every night, it's kinda hard to devote tons of time to shutting down one player on one night when you've got 2 or 3 games that week.

Although it looks like Lebron remembered who he was and hit back to back 3's. I'd like to see this one go to 7.

Lacking leadership from their coach and star player, and they carry the burden of a cursed city that expects them to find a way to lose.

Greatest regular season team ever to not win a title.

And they rely on Antwan Jamison to shoot 3s and D up on Garnett in the 4th.

This one is over. Cavs look defeated.

that was awful. Pull within 4 then let them go on a 10-0 run.

This team is so bad. I don't get how they even make the playoffs. No joke...

NO ONE can do anything. Lebron does his thing (even with the poor performances recently)


but Mo, Antawn, Verejao, old Shaq, etc etc..... couldn't create a shot for themself if their life depended on it. Mo Williams is the most inconsistent player ever.

Lebron just doesn't care the past two games. Out of nowhere he just became so passive.

Shaq needs to hang it up. It's sad seeing someone who was so dominant look like this. Father time is undefeated.

I think LeBron let his elbow injury completely psyche him out. Or it's a master plan to get out of Cleveland.

he doesn't care to the tune of a near triple double?

That may have been an ok statement for game 5, but he's been going at it tonight, just doesn't have his shot.

However, the last few possessions after Allen stripped him down low, he's been passive.

Yes, lebron's supporting cast is not very good, but the cavs are still a respectable team. The biggest factor in this series is that the celtics have a healthy kg. They're a pretty salty team.

This reminds me of Miami/Dallas Game 6. The Heat pulled away in the 4th, but the refs plus a suddenly inspired Mavs team made a late charge to cut it to 3 at the end.

I wouldn't even call the cavs respectable. I reallllllly don't understand how they're consistently the best team in the league... record wise

I don't think I've seen a team mail it in like that down by 9 with 1:30 left on the clock. That's just pathetic.
Bunk Moreland

they should have gone to hack a rondo with 2:00 left and down 7.

Move LeBron to the Nets and they are instantly better than the Cavs with LeBron.

Nice statline lebron... but Kobe and Jordan take 20 shots in the 4th quarter with the killer instinct in mind. If they lose, they're pissed. They're not out there high fiving giving props to the opponent. Weak.

The lack of respect for the celts is appalling. Yes, they barely won 50 games, but kg wa battling injuries for much of the year. This team is as good, if not better, than the 08 team. The ecf will be between the best two teams in the league.

you are seriously clueless. MJ and Kobe don't congratulate other teams when they lose?

I bet you were on here *****ing that Lebron left the court last year in game 6 vs. Orlando instead of congratulating the Magic players.

But hey, don't let your obvious hate of LBJ get in the way of any rational thought.

Ya, those of you talking about how the cavs made the playoffs are completely underestimating the celtics. They are one of the 3 best teams in the league.

agreed. At some point it comes down to the Celtics stepping up and whooping the Cavs ass, and they did it.

After Lebron leaves Cleveland, they need to fire that joke of a coach Mike Brown.

They are not as good as the 08 version. Garnett has taken a noticeable dip, much like Duncan over these 2 years. Allen isn't as good, and they don't have the 3 point shooters off the bench like Posey & House. Rondo is better, but that's the only thing.

I couldn't care less if opponents shook hands after games. MJ and Kobe are PISSED when they lose.

Lebrons out there giving high fives and props yay have fun in the next round guys yay.

He doesn't have the KILLER INSTINCT. He has the nice all around game.... but that won't win the rings.
Bunk Moreland
How long do you want to ignore this user?
that's laughable. You know for a fact that he's not pissed he just lost? What was his 07 playoffs then if it wasn't killer instinct, taking that load of scrubs to the NBA finals at 22?

what a joke.

There's no sense in debating a mind-reader.

you really think he wont have a ring in the next 5 years? He'll likely have multiple rings.

Not if he stays in Cleveland he won't. Their management is a bunch of retards humping doorknobs.
Bunk Moreland
How long do you want to ignore this user?
sorry, I should have put an asterisk that this assumes he won't be staying in Cleveland.

Because there's no way in hell he sticks around with the "help" they've attempted to give him over the years.

Again, it's going to take a wingman who's a top 10 player at his given position. Not a "former" guy in that category, not even 2 or 3 "former" guys in that category.

How many regular season games will LeBron's team win if he has competent management?

82-0? What's the all-time record for wins in a season?

Ask LeBron right now what he thinks about all those regular season wins. That team is not, nor ever has been, built to win when it counts.

no shaq ate himself out of the league- he looks to be about 350lbs-

if he had worked out at all his first 10 years the guy would still be unstoppable

Record for regular season is the 1996 bulls (I believe that's the year)

72-10.......... Sick


Honestly if I had to bet my life that lebron will win a championship within the next 5 years... I really don't think I could.

Anyone wonder how he would do in the West? (more competition to many... strengthen and prepare him more for the playoffs?)
Dr. Tinkle
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Lebron's main problem which I think stems from his phenom label from middle school is that he thinks it's all about him. He's the type of player that I seriously believe would rather score 50 and lose than score 10 and win. He wants the world to pay attention to him.

Jordan HATED losing. Bird HATED losing. MAGIC HATED losing. Lebron just posted a triple double and seems like he is fine.
