I said it about a million times during the past few weeks, and I strongly believed it with all my heart, that the Cleveland Cavaliers was a one-man-team. There was one moment though, narrated in one of my posts, when I believed that there was a possibility that things could change and LeBron did have some legitimate help. And although LeBron still needed to play almost the entire game to keep the plays intact tonight, that bright light illuminated all doubts and speculations regarding LeBron's teammates. One game after beating the Detroit Pistons 1-on-5, LeBron finally got big help from his teammates tonight and got extremely better results in the end. There are two players I would like to commend: Daniel Gibson and Anderson Varejao.

The Chris Webber Face
It's hard to say what happened to Chris Webber, save for saying that his legs and his heart have finally given up on him. The first few months were ecstasy, the Pistons kept on winning and they could barely lose: It sprung a rekindling of Webber's lost passion and intensity. However, like all good relationships, the excitement just drops little by little until passiveness...

LeBron James to World: "Kiss My Ass"
Down 7 with a little more than 3 minutes to go in regulation, LeBron James shook his head. He had had enough. A burning aura started to emit from around his body and immense heat pulsated rapidly throughout all his veins. Then, for the moment, everything disappeared. The crowd, the sounds, the distractions, the referees, and most importantly, the Pistons disappeared. He was playing...
Cavaliers-Pistons Game 6 Preview
In exactly 16 hours from now, Game 6 of the Cavaliers-Pistons series will commence and by the end, we will see either of two outcomes: LeBron James will go against all odds and finally close out the Detroit Pistons to single-handedly take the Cleveland Cavaliers to the next step, the NBA Finals; much reminiscent of Dwayne Wade's NBA Finals showing last year, where he brought...
A digression from baseball...
The Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Detroit Pistons 98-82 last night. Daniel Gibson had a great game, especially 19 points in the 4th quarter, 31 points on the night. I'm not really a fan of the Cavaliers; I like the Wizards and Lakers. I am rooting for the the Cavs after the Wizards got out because of Lebron James. He runs the team and is so fun to watch. Lebron doesn't get...
NBA Forum Discussions















Jordan-No one, Im talking about superstar who can get off a clutch shot and make it so we'll put LeBron in a joint role
Pippen-LeBron, because he can do whatever, rebound,pass,score and can occasionally make the clutch shot
Steve Kerr-Daniel Gibson,Small shooter who can be lethal if you leave him open
Dennis Rodman-Anderson Varejao, now Varejao is not close to the defender or rebounder Rodman was, but he is feisty and can get under your skin, a real hustler.
Toni Kukoc-Donyell Marshall, Big small forward who can play PF and knock down the 3
Bill Cartwright-Zydrunas Ilgauskas, brings size to the table
As you see, Larry Hughes has no role. Eric Snow has no role. Maybe LeBron can become that lethal clutch player and not need someone as talented as Pippen and then maybe Hughes can fit in. The one noticeable difference I see is that just about everyone could score and Cartwright and Horace Grant could defend the post and Cleveland lacks that and they have to go against maybe the best power forward of all time, Tim Duncan.
