LeBron drops John Lucas with textbook pick

Found April 20, 2012 on Pass The Pill: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: LeBron James,  John Lucas
TEAMS: Miami Heat,  Chicago Bulls

This pick came late in the 3rd quarter of Thursday night’s Heat/Bulls showdown in Miami. The heat won this game 83-72 on their home-court.

LeBron’s screen looks perfectly acceptable to me, but Bulls backup point guard, John Lucas looked less that thrilled. He approached LeBron after the play was whistled dead and had to be restrained by Chicago forward, CarlosBoozer.

I do understand Lucas’ pain. He’s already featured in a poster of LeBron leaping over him for a sensational dunk. This seems like insult to injury!

Who is the REAL NBA MVP?

Via The Sports Bank  |  April 19, 2012
The NBA MVP debate has heated up, then cooled down. Then it heated up again, and then it cooled down, again. It seems that the MVP has come down to two players: Miami Heat forward LeBron James and Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant. Durant also has an argument for the award. He is averaging 27.8 ppg and 8 rpg. While he doesn’t boast the same assists per game like LeBron...
