Great post. Welcome back!
-
Yeah, man, a guy built like a delicate flower like LeBron is would have just been knocked around in the late 80's and early 90's!
-
I'll bet the guys on the bench will say really nasty things to him as he sinks yet another shot. Oh, he may rack up the points...but he will also rack up the tears.
-
Uh-oh, is someone gonna give him the business?
-
Ewww, Kaplan.
-
I don't get the somewhat vocal "where's Colvin?!?" minority we have here considering the guy has shown up in 14 out of 16 games this season. -
I'm just saying it's been feast or famine in these 16 games. I'm not saying that it will definitely be that for the rest of the year...but it's not promising and it seems to be showing that last year's core issues were ones that went past the injuries and slumps.

Nobody can do it on their own. Jordan couldn't do it on his own. And don't even pretend like Pippen wasn't another superstar.
-
Seems a lot of it has come down to timing, too. The offense hasn't been on the same page so far. You had Lee tearing it up when basically everyone was sucking except for Fukudome and Byrd. Now Lee is mired in an awful slump coupled with Aramis still being horrible and it's created a huge hole in the lineup. Regardless of who is hitting you've had too many holes in the lineup where you need to have some kind of production. The 2-3 and 5 hitters are hitting, but nobody else is. The 5-7 hitters or 5,6 and 8 hitters are hitting but nobody else is. In short, this team is toast if either their 3 or 4 hitters are terrible, and for too much of the season now both have been.
-
sulley, you do think LeBron will win at least one championship before his career is done, right?
-
You've got 8 guys on the NBA's all-time top 50 list that never won a ring. You've got 16 who only won 1. Championships are not the end-all-be-all of determining whether a player is great or not since even the greatest of all time couldn't win one by himself.
-
Sure you can. We can't even consider guys like Stockton, Barkley, Malone, Miller, Iverson, etc. in those discussions?
-
And it's not like the Bulls' bench hasn't been talking [expletive] to him.

Why wait? That's like saying Jordan wasn't living up to the hype for the first 5 years of his career. Just because a player can't literally do everything all the time for their team doesn't mean they're not living up to the hype. yeah, 6 titles didn't do anything for jordan's career. What? I have no idea what your response is supposed to mean. I was pointing out how it's dumb to act like a player can't be great until they win a title. I never said anything about the titles helping or not helping Jordan's career. What a weird, random thing to say. at some point a player has to win a big game or big series. if he doesn't, he's missing something. i don't see lebron doing it with this team and i don't see this team getting any better. So is he missing something or is his team missing something?

i will get on his nuts when he wins a title. i don't think that's happening without a guy who can take the last shot and no i don't mean anthony parker. cleveland ain't winning unless they get a good team to lose interest in an important playoff series. Titles? Really? Titles are on the level with wins/RBI/batting average when judging a player's worth. Bill wennington has more rings than Karl Malone....so what? Eli Manning is a better QB than Dan Marino. FACT.

I submit that you need to get on his nuts.
-
Yet.
-
YER NOTHIN' BUT A BUM! THIS'LL LEARN YA GOOD!
-
They need good relievers, regardless of which arm they throw with.
-
Gorz to the bullpen instead of Z makes so much more sense it's....I don't know, I don't even have the words.
-
Quit being bitter. If more players were like LeBron we probably would have cured cancer by now.
-
Lord only knows. Probably something about dancing.
-
Aramis makes me want to barf with sadness. Lee's been hideous over the last week, too (.130 .286 .304 .590). Not gonna accomplish much offensively if your 3-4 guys are that bad.
