Sooo, I'm totally geeking out with you here, and I appreciate all your speculation. I've actually been out of the loop on this one as I was away from TV for the last week, but... I gotta give LeBron some props. I agree that he is somewhat over-rated, but he's got to do it all himself. Cleveland coaching works, it seems on defense only. Having seen them play several times, when they get on the offensive side, they give the ball to LeBron and hope it will all work out. And frequently it does. They don't have anyone that actually consistently shoots high percentage shots. He gets double and triple teamed on almost every possession, makes great passes and then his team mates miss completely open looks. I think in time, the triple teams will wear him down, and they won't make it much past the second round, but for now he's fired up. I think before you talk too much more about LeBron you should look at his assist stats (which of course I haven't looked at, but think are really impressive.) YO!

It's good to hear some excitement about basketball when everyone else I know is all about baseball, especially in "Cardinal Nation." I've obviously been out of it for awhile, last I tuned in the Lakers sucked and I loved that! Great post.
