I'm sure it is because the sponsors paid money for it to be on the show.

I want Lebron talk, right now! These two clowns call him top 5 all time like it's nothing. Right now, on the biggest stage, he's playing passive and overall horribly. Explain his struggles to me, please.

The Spurs are good at defense and LeBron is a big baby?

I seem to remember Goff always being big on George.

No, I'm not making that up.


That is not the worst idea I have ever heard of, but have no faith it could be executed correctly. To change that city from being anything but a gigantic parking lot people have to work.

Is it Confirmation Bias or do the White Sox have quite the penchant for cancelling games at the drop of a hat, no?

It's been said they put off cancelling until the last minute so people come and get concessions and sit in the rain for hours. Not that I think that's just a Sox thing.

Jesus, Terry, enough with the constant repeating of a pedestrian sports thoughts. How many times can he say "well, the Spurs are done if Parker is out....I mean, and eh, again, in point of fact no matter what the Spurs did to Miami last night the uh, and again, it's just silly to think that LeBron has somehow forgotten how to play basketball. And, uh, well, look, if Tony Parker is out, even if he is hobbled, this series is over - I, I, I just don't see Miami losing at home. Again."

Glad they're talking basketball, good call guys. :( "LeBron is NOT a scorer, he's just not"

After years of stating that the Heat can't be beaten and numerous columns about how another team stands between the Bulls and a championship, we're now being told that nobody can predict an outcome. Particularly when factoring in injury.

No, this series hasn't been decided yet. But hopefully the mantra of the Heat being unbeatable can be finished.

One more thing: Terry Boers as the de facto "Jordan expert" is bullshit. LBJ is a great talent but his competitive fire isn't in Jordan's league. Bird's either.

How are they going to reconcile their love for Pop against the knob gobbling affection for LeBron ?

Especially when there is another big sporting event the same night.

During the Bulls title runs there would be cancelations all the time.

After years of covering the Bulls and the NBA as a writer this is all he has to offer. That's kind of ridiculous.

Not too long ago he said, on a couple of occasions, that after watching Jordan in practice during his rookie year that he was the first one to realize how great he could really be.

To be fair. He didn't realize that himself his peeps just called and left him an answering machine message about it.

One of the things that I don't want them to do if Lebron James fails is point to the generic "fire" stuff. That is something that is used way too often when a superstar guy fails. The whole fire and passion garbage. The reason that Lebron James failed is because he could not consistently hit the jumpshot. Popovich made a concerted effort to ensure that he could not get to the hole. It was almost embarassing to see the greatest player in the world reluctant to shoot a 15 foot jump shot. The larger question is why hasn't he come up with a consistent jump shot. This was old school basketball. They are giving him the jump shot and daring him to beat them with it. Leonard is closing on the shot but it is a wide open shot and James can not hit it consistently. He can hit a jump shot but not consistently. That is what Popovich is banking on. It has nothing to do with being more aggressive. That analysis is cheap and too often used to compensate for an analysts or in this case radio personality's laziness

It's more than just him missing his jumper though. He has only shot like 6 free throws in the entire series. If Jordan's jumper wasn't falling you can bet your ass he would be getting himself to the line anyway he could to keep his team in a game.

It's not really generic with Lebron. He has a history of quitting.

i wouldn't say that this is one of those instances. It just seems that the Lebron is the greatest of all time crowd conveniently uses this in cases in which he fails to prove that he is the greatest. Rather than admit they may have exaggerated some they cling to the notion that he is not being aggressive.

I've wondered for a long time why Jordan is the default comparison for Lebron. They've never been similar stylistically in their games. Lebron is more of a Dominique/Pippen/Magic hybrid.
