I guess he is able to get out on his own plane Anyway - not clear for me if it is better to be a real brightest star in a weaker team than to be just one of the stars of the better team... I am just not sure about it. In Cleveland Lebron is absolutely the number one. And in other team who would he be?

and where is he gonna go??? the Knicks??? or the Nets???? his best chance to win the title is at Cleveland, they do have the right pieces in place, but most of them warm the bench, imo Shaq and Parker are hurting this team, yeah they might get their points but they f*** up their whole team chemistry.

I agree completely!! Williams has proven to be too streaky, Shaq stinks, all you gotta do is foul him, Jamison is still not showing me anything, so that is my point...And their coach is Horrid! Give this team to Papavich and this series is over IMO

enough of the f-in excuses. this team was favored to win it all, and everyone commented on how improved the supporting cast was. Now, we have to hear about some phantom elbow injury, jamison stinks, and the coach isn't good enough. gimme a break

Totally agree. This is the team that had the BEST RECORD in the NBA this year and all of a sudden the rest of the team and coach suck? Bottom line, injured or not, MVP not getting it done. 3-14 last night and 0 for 9 from the 3 point line last 2 games.

Lebron choking bigtime, if he plays like he does in the regular season this series doesn't look like this. Who knew Rondo was the far superior player? LMAO

And the only point I'll make about the supporting cast is that Shaq's fat ass needs to get out on the first train - just ask the suns how much this 350 pound washed up buffoon slows a team down. If he is still in Phoenix they probably get swept by the spurs instead of the other way around. Bringing him in was a horrible idea.

well maybe the Celts also play different in the post season, regular season in the NBA means nothing, home court adv, seeds and all that crap is only out there to sell the tickets. But you are correct about Shaq, the post season is when they pay for that mistake.

The coaching at Cleveland is the issue. It's not that he's a bad coach...he isn't. The problem is that some players are good enough that they require a very high level of coaching that can only be provided sometimes by a quality veteran coach.

IMO, LBJ deserves better. He needs a top-of-the-line head coach who has enough experience to be able to say exactly what role LBJ should play, and then find the right players to fill in the rest around him.

To me, bringing in shaq this year was the clue that they are not serious about keeping LBJ in town in the long-term...it was a last ditch effort at a championship and it isn't going to work. Yes, they won the most regular season games this year. Besides that I see no reason to believe they are capable of beating ANY of the teams left in the playoffs.

If I am LeBron (and the Cavs lose to the Celtics), I go to New York to take Charles Dolan's $$$ and become, literally, the King of New York. He's big now, but if he came to New York he'd explode even more. He'd more than make up for the "reduced salary" with endorsements and other opportunities.

NY is great except D'Antoni is a proven loser in the playoffs
Will LBJ really go play on a squad with a coach who doesn't know the first thing about the playoffs? He certainly doesn't need help winning regular season games.

The Bulls actually are the best option, but only with the right coach. take one of the coaches from the celtics and you have a championship in the making
