Re: NBA Discussion Thread

I have no idea who wins this series, but its tough for me to go against Dallas. They have looked virtually unstoppable since game 5 of the Portland series. I mean since then they've gone 10-1 agaist GOOD teams. I love the Shawn Marion/LBJ matchup. Marion matches up extremely well with LeBron. Dallas has two great big men defensively wise, that will make it extremely hard for Bosh to do anything. It'll be hard for Wade & LeBron to get a lot of chances down low as well. And Miami doesn't have anybody for Dirk, & Dallas' bench could be a HUGE factor.

Miami does have HCA which could be the determining factor of the series since the finals are 2-3-2 which is stupid as hell IMO.

Dallas in 6, or Miami in 7.



And here's to hoping that the refs don't dont do the same thing to Dallas as they did in 2006. ( Worst officiating in NBA Finals history )

im tierd of people hatin on Lebron, hes 1 of the best defensive players, he has the size and foot work to guard dirk. Lebron Will shut him down, as long as coach puts him on dirk he'll get shut down. And Lebron Fouling out?? mannnnnn C'mon Son!! THINK!!!

Re: NBA Discussion Thread

Yeah the NBA won't allow LBJ to foul out. Also, wonder how many more FT's Miami is going to shoot than Dallas this series? SMH

Damn! Kareem wrote a open letter to Scottie Pippen about his comments regarding LeBron. Here's the letter..

---



Dear Scottie,

I have nothing but respect for you my friend as an athlete and knowledgeable basketball mind. But you are way off in your assessment of who is the greatest player of all time and the greatest scorer of all time. Your comments are off because of your limited perspective. You obviously never saw Wilt Chamberlain play who undoubtedly was the greatest scorer this game has ever known. When did MJ ever average 50.4 points per game plus 25.7 rebounds? (Wilt in the 1962 season when blocked shot statistics were not kept). We will never accurately know how many shots Wilt blocked. Oh, by the way in 1967 and 68, Wilt was a league leader in assists. Did MJ ever score 100 points in a game? How many times did MJ score more than 60 points in a game? MJ led the league in scoring in consecutive seasons for 10 years but he did this in an NBA that eventually expanded into 30 teams vs. when Wilt played and there were only 8 teams….

In terms of winning, Michael excelled as both an emotional and scoring leader but Bill Russell’s Celtics won eight consecutive NBA Championships. Bill’s rebounding average per game is over 22.5 lifetime, MJs best rebounding years was eight per game (1989).… Bill played on a total of 11 championship teams and as you very well know, Scottie, the ring is the thing, and everything else is just statistics. So I would advise you to do a little homework before crowning Michael or LeBron with the title of best ever. As dominant as he is, LeBron has yet to win a championship. I must say that it looks like Miami has finally put the team together that will change that circumstance. Its my hope that today’s players get a better perspective on exactly what has been done in this league in the days of yore.

Affectionately,

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar,
NBA’s All-Time Leading Scorer
