LeBron also with a 28/6/7 line.

That's pretty good, everyone. We made it almost 200 posts before this thread began devolving into another classic LeBron is a little *****/No he isn't argument. When do we start the Spoelstra debate?

That following game was the turning point for the Heat's success. LeBron finally stopped playing second fiddle to Wade. It became LeBron's team with Wade filling in as a secondary option, no more co alpha dogs. Two titles, seven consecutive series wins and counting later, it's been a fun ride.

Posting facts isn't really arguing.

We have to remind ourselves why you shouldn't fire a coach that has great success. Let's look at George Karl. 56 wins last year and now he got fired and the Nuggets didn't even sniff the playoffs. I can see Karl doing good with that Warriors lineup if Jackson gets canned.

I think Karl would be a really good fit in Minnesota. That's a fanbase that would be happy with just making the playoffs, playoff success is not a requirement for that job.

Time for Clippers-Warriors. This should be interesting.

Anyone else think that if the Rockets had Kevin Love they would be the perfect team for Fred? So many threes, hate shooting long twos, etc.

This rockets Portland series is the exact opposite of the bulls series...watchable.

I've enjoyed every single Western Conference series better than any of the Eastern Conference series. Six OT games in just the Houston-Portland and Memphi-OKC series already.
