The best part of the Cavs/Clips game was the Illgauskas interview with his ridiculously uneven accent.

qft

he actually was well spoken though, "if it isnt broken, why should we fix it" was hilarious

Just watched highlights of Bobcats vs. Rockets what a horrible call on Gerald Wallace.

Disagree, it's pretty clear from the baseline camera angle - even the Bobcats announcers agreed it was a good call when they saw that angle.

Lebron's mind is not the strongest. Not that he is dumb, he just doesn't have the strongest will. As usual, he is getting posted up. Carmelo is toasting him down low. Kobe takes it personally if you try to post him up, his ego is too big for that. I seen Kobe shut down Melo, T-Mac. He's just has to be the best player on the court, and he will get in your face before you even think about crossing the elbow and heading into block, kick your ass.

Melo thinks he can kick Lebron's ass, and Lebron doesn't think so the other way. Also, Lebron's mind is weak at the line. Kobe is like free points biatch gonna get my 40 tonight.

kobe plays harder during the season, but gimme lbj in the playoffs.

GKA--wtf? Level?

Just then, Lebron throws it away, Melo on the break the other way, Lebron totally lets up, give him a little matador olay love pat. In the first half, the roles were totally reversed, Melo fouled him, not hard, but knocked him down, made him earn it, and he ended up missing 2.

I think LeBron is a better basketball player than Kobe when playing at maximal effort. Kobe has to bring it every game just to get to the playoffs in the West, whereas LeBron can just kinda chill.

GKA-

Come on man, these posts can't be real, are they?

If Kobe was playing in the East of the last two years he would have dominated in a way that just isn't possible in the West and let your Eastern homerism fade for a second to realize this. The Cavs were maybe the worst team to ever play in the NBA finals and it isn't b/c Lebron is teh greatest eva it is b/c the East was miserable last year and everything fell into place for them--Arenas blew out his knee, Pistons were wore out and suspended...they luckboxed their way and then had their eyes opened up to the West.

Kobe has basically held his own in the playoffs w/ Jordan like performances on a terrible team--those series' against Pho were epic b/c Kobe and only Kobe. Lebron doesn't take Pho to the brink ever--anyone would be a fool for taking anyone current over Kobe in anything having to do w/ basketball at any time/situation.

Lebron is grossly overhyped.
