Extra treatment, you know what I mean. Just saying what I read was reported.

"shrank" is an understatement. He was nonexistent in the 4th during the Finals.

Not to Kobe apparently, because its Pau's fault that Kobe was 2/10 in the 4th qtr.

Against Boston, Mo had more fire than LeBron did.

It's easy to put up stats when he wasn't on the better team, such as the first time the Cavs played Boston in 08 I believe... But when LBJ has expectations, he disappears as the game gets later.
Then why doesn't everyone do it? How's Boobie doing now, Lebron MADE players like him have opportunities like he got in that game and the entire time Lebron was in Cleveland. That's the piece you are missing.

Pau is a bitch, but during the first couple of title he was definitely instrumental. I don't know what's happened to him the last couple of seasons though, aside from turning into a giant vagina.

I said he was ass at the beginning of the year and some people (robj) had issue with that statement.

No one is talking **** about Dirk are they? He is a champion, champions get a pass for ****ty performances.
I bet Lebron wouldn't, I guarantee he wouldn't even if he had a ring already. He is graded on a different scale like I said.

Because it was an ignorant statement, if Pau Gasol is ass then there are only about 10 players in the world who aren't. You obviously overreacted with that statement there.

When you do the shit he does off the court, yeah you are graded on a different scale. Bron's hype is all his own doing. No one feels bad for him.

QQ for LeBron, he is the self-anointed "Chosen One"

A lot of people put up stats when their on teams that aren't as good, wtf are you talking about?

And LeBron sure is making this awesome Heat team so much better than Indy right now. Miami, without bosh, should still beat Indy.

The media had nothing to do with it? He was heralded since the time he walked into HS, only thing he did was ball out and it came to him.

His statement was about the media giving it to players when they play bad...

I don't see anything from the media about Pau. Again, champions get a pass. It's been that way for forever.

"King James"

"The chosen one"

"Not 5, not 6, not 7"

"Games will be easy after practicing with these guys"

Then, during this series, LeBron has already made excuses about playing the 4 wearing him down and whatnot.

I don't know about that...I mean, Dirk was considered soft amongst other things, but now he def gets plenty of love. Lebron is different though, because he went to a super team to try to get one, so to me....no matter what he does, even if he gets 6 rings, will never be on the level of Kobe, Russell, Jordan and many others.

Yup, the media MADE him get a tattoo of "Chosen 1" on his back.

Yeah thats all he does is ball. No Chosen One tattoos, "Decisions", proclaiming himself King James, 20 person entourages, etc.
