Default Can LeBron afford the 25G?

I hope the kid learns from his very poor sportsmanship.

The difference between him and Kobe is that Kobe makes his teammates better and LJ simply doesn't. Unlike wrestling, BBall is a TEAM game.

Is this a joke? When has kobe made his team better? Lebron has carried a very limited team the last several years. The fact that they had the best record in the league and made the conference finals with the little talent they had is a testament to lebrons ability to make others around him better.

LeBron averaged 38-8-8 or thereabouts in the Conference Finals. Not much more you could ask from a player. He's the ultimate team player. Meanwhile, Kobe is notorious for NOT making his teammates better.

So Kobe with out making his team mates better = in the NBA finals up a game.

Labron with making his team mates better = on vacation for the summer.

Last night.

3 rings bud, #4 is coming up soon. Every team he's on he makes better.
He can score basically at will on good defense. He is an underrated passer.

Zapp is also right, Lebron has nowhere near the supporting cast. He had awesome team oriented numbers and is a great distributor. I don't think it's bad sportsmanship to not go to the other team and give a disingenious handshake. BBall is one of the only sports where this is a tradition. In baseball and football it isn't customary one bit. So who cares? The guy was pissed and couldnt bring himself to shake hands. I know he does it when he wins, and he'll probably not do this again, but this guy has done EVERYTHING the right way since he got into the leaugue. Kobe allegedly raped a woman and now he's back to being a hero again. How about give lebron a pass. he has earned it.

Indeed...

And as you point out as well LeBron's supporting cast is TERRIBLE.

Mo Williams was supposed to become his second bananna then he went out and shot 30% in the conference finals.

Thats pretty much been the knock on kobe. He won when he had shaq but he has been unable to get it done since. They were favored the previous years and came up short.

He may get it this year and good for him if he does but lebron is a better team player and has done more with less.

Would that be Labron who had more team wins this season, or Kobe who is 3 wins away from his 4th NBA championship?
