Yeah that's what I was saying when the series started. Celtics knew what they were doing, ook it a little easy and not they're exploding...check and mate.
I don't want to talk too soon, Cleveland is still a good team but I don't know if they're gonna beat this Celtics team at home, like KG said, it's their game 7

Its a team game so I think its unfair to place all the blame on James, they lost it as a team. But he did seem to give in, which I can't say I've seen in the greats - not that he can't learn from that.
It will be interesting how Game 6 goes and how he deals with the reaction from Game 5. Either he'll come out with something to prove or a repeat performance.
I hope Celtics win.
haha

looks like cavs gettin eliminated. i really wanted a game 7. we havent had one in the playoffs so far.
jamison went ghost. i think they wouldve done better with big z starting cuz he got that lil jump shot and plus that opens up the lane for lebrick and mo-will. shaq just clogs that shit up and it working cuz he aint what he used to be.

Jordan in the first few years had some heartbreaking playoff series but he used that as motivation. I wouldn't say its over for him but he needs to mature and find that mental strength needed for playoffs.
I was shocked how the last minute and a half they just let the clock tick away, no fight. I've seen regular season games fought harder.

Completely agree, he is no Jordan I've always hated that comparason. I only mentioned it in the sense that Jordan (the greatest player ever) had his troubles in Playoffs, and he ended up with these:
Getting past the mental challenge is the key. So we'll see.
I agree with what yak just posted, they won 60 games so the only thing that changed was the pressure. They have the talent to win a championship, just not the maturity right now.

I hate this comparison myself but Kobe and Jordan are the only players we will ever see with the type of mental ability that they respectively have. I don't know how or where it comes from but they have it. LeBron, poeple have been talking about him not having 'it' since year 2 or so.
As of tonights game, props to Mo Williams, he stepped the fuck up, especially in the first half. Man.....LeBron puts up huge numbers but he still does not get his team involved. A nice assist here and there isn't gonna get Jamisons jumper started, let him get an iso play or two, get that confidence built. I've said this from day one, LeBron is one of the most selfish players in the league. Yes he averages something like 8 assists but he isn't doing shit to get his guys going. Comparisons are comparisons. Kobe makes sure Pau and Bynum gets isos on the block, he calls for those as much as he calls for his post up game. There is a lot more to the game then driving and kicking or making nice dishes to get your numbers going. The ball is constantly in bronbrons hands and as far as im concerned he isn't gonna win any sort of championship with it there. I'm just trying to say Bron needs to reevaluate how he controls his game. Phil Jackson said of Kobe the last couple years he hasn't seen anyone as good as him, even Mike, as knowing when to take over the game or how to control the tempo. Hopefully LeBron learns cus if not he's just anotehr Nique or Charles, great highlights but nothing to show for it. Another thing is he better hope he stays in the East if he wants to get deep into the playoffs every year. Oklahoma City and the Spurs as 7 & 8 seeds, insane...either of those teams could have a legit shot at playing Orlando for the conference right now, they had a legit shot in the Western conference but I'm just saying, they would have stomped the Bucks, Carolina or the Hawks with ease.
I'm glad Boston won, LeBron needed to get exposed. It's about time people start hopping off his dick. You like that BronBron... word to Pusha T
