I see a lot of people putting the blame on Lebron's teammates but if it wasn't for them, this series would have been over. A lot of blame has to go to Lebron too because he had a terrible series. I never seen someone of his caliber brick so much and have so many turnovers. Don't just blame the teammates, blam bron too.

Another thing, no one should be shocked that the Cavs have no offense. They gave up their offense when they made that trade. Lebron pushed for the trade, so he got it.

I don't understand why the Cavs don't involve Big Z in the offense more often. He's one of the few centers in this league that could still play.

Mike Brown needs to stop running that same play with lebron up top with the pick cuming from the big man over and over. It seems like that is the only play the Cavs have in their playbook. Lebron needs to move without the basketball and get the ball closer to the basket.

So this summer, the cavs need to get the right players to surrond Lebron with. They need to work on better offensive plays.

And also this summer, Lebron needs to work on his jump shots, freethrows, and his post up game. He's to big to not be in the post.

I'm out......Lakers 2008

Lakers, earlier today I responded to a post which read LeBron 40 pts 12 rebs and 8 assts.  I responded that 27 16 and 12 would be better. LeBron might have taken to much on his shoulders and did not involve the shooter that were wide open. Even if he'd take 15 less shots it would have made the defense play more honest. No matter how great the performance, LeBron will not make a successful run until he gets away from keeping the ball well into most shot clocks.  IMO he is a very good passer and well rounded player but just has to give up the ball a bit more.

If you watch Lebron play throughout the year, you will realize that Lebron is actually one of the most selfless players out there.  He does what he needs to do.  He scores a bunch because he can, but he is often a double-double and triple double guy.  He does what he needs to do to win games.  When he passed to wide-open players today like Damon Jones or west, or scerbiak, they tossed up many, many bricks.  One great shooter out there with him today and they would have beaten the Celtics.  Maybe Gibson  would have helped, maybe not, because he is a good shooter, but not a great defender.  Scerbiak was brought here just to shoot wide open threes.  he finished this series with probably 1 of 9 in the last 2 games and most of those were "wide-open" threes people would kill to take.  They are short that Scottie Pippen type of second player that the other team has to defend or a lights out 3 point shooter for all the freebies that get kicked out when Lebron drives to the hoop.  The role players are actually pretty solid.    Barring another injury-plagued year and the CAVS will be rock-solid next year.

ok NOW its time to start a Celtics/cavaliers round 2 series thread

with that said i think this series largely depends on which celtics team decides to show up. we all know WHO LeBron James is + what he is capable of -- and IF the same celtics that struggled against the Hawks in atlanta show up he WILL run laps around us. on the other hand IF the celtics are firing on all cylinders (as they were for most of the regular season + are now in game 7) i expect it to be a very competative series. i do think the cavs will steal one in boston -- which means the celtics WILL have to win on the road. i also see a couple of very close games that could go either way -- perhaps being decided in overtime or by a buzzer beater. when all is said + done though...

celtics in 7 (+ a much more dramatic game 7) -- but only IF they remember how to win on the road + can shut down lebron james in cleveland.


ok so the celtics STLL havent won a road game + the cavs didnt take one in boston -- but i was right about game 7

man WHAT A SHOW by lebron james + Paul Pierce today. 89 combined points + a game that couldve easily gone the other way IF lebron hit that 3 to tie the game with about 1:30 left. but he didnt -- and in the end the celtics held on!!

bring on the Pistons
