Lets say LeBron only wins 2 rings in his career. Combine that with the fact that he was so good, so young, and if he plays until he's 40+ like MJ...his stats will be off the charts in every category.

He's on pace to be at the top in scoring and put up massive rebounding, steals and assist numbers for a 3.

Throw in half-a-dozen MVP's and all of the other personal achievements, he trumps Duncan. I won't say he surpasses Kobe just yet until we see how he returns from the achilles.

Mark Jackson said this week he thinks Lebron will finish first in scoring and Top 5 in assists. Also called him the best PG in the NBA.

Damn Hibbert fined 75K for his comments after game 6. Figured it'd be a lot but not that much.

Also, seeing the big fundamental get kicked out of a game for laughing is still one of the reasons I hate nba officiating

Joey Crawford is the absolute biggest piece of shit out of everyone that has anything to do with the NBA. That includes players.

I wouldn't say things are starting to unravel just yet in Miami. Bosh and Wade's struggles have certainly been noted, yet they still have a chance to win a game 7 with not much left on that team. Many people always comment about the lack of depth and how it's just the Big 3. Had somebody told me Bosh and Wade's averages before the start of the series, I would have said Indiana in 5-6. The Big 3 need to help one another-- but do it the right way. It's not about quantity of shots, it's quality of shots. When Miami is rolling, that ball moves very quickly and they're near impossible to beat. Yet, far too often, one guy will dribble for the majority of the clock and they can go 5mins without a field goal. Wade and Bosh need to move without the ball and LBJ needs to find them. Spo needs to step up too-- they go through stretches without play calls and only hero ball. They cannot beat Indiana if they let them set up their defense, they're too good. I'd like to see arguably Miami's best play that they never run-- the pick and roll with Wade and LBJ.

Danny Granger healthy has averaged 22 points per game the last 5 years. Paul George 17

So Laley and S&L can s my d for jumping my shit like it was an absurd statement to say they are doing all this without their best player.

I'm not going to s your d for saying a stupid comment. George is playing like a top 10 player in the NBA. Granger isn't doing that and wouldn't be doing that if healthy.

I do think Grangers shooting would def help the team, but that's almost all he brought to the game.

Paul George 2013 - 17.4 PPG, 7.6 RPG, 4.1 APG, 1.8 SPG, 23 years old
Danny Granger 2012 - 18.7 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 1.8 APG, 1.0 SPG, 30 years old

Not the best comparison, but I think it is fair to say that Paul George is without a doubt Indiana's best player. Danny Granger 2008-2010 may have been better than George right now, but 2012 Granger was not even better than 2013 George.

Reps for not being a dick about it.

I should've said, it's impressive that the Pacers are doing this without their best shooter.

You know what's inevitably going to happen tonight? Wade & Bosh will combine for about 55 points and help the Heat to a double-digit win. And the media will proclaim them as clutch heroes.

I actually think the other roll players will step up tonight like in game 5. Haslem, Chalmers, Cole.

I'm thinking Norris Cole, he's been rather quiet.

Not really surprised he has had a great career. At least he got that ring in 2011. Sucks to see another player I loved watching when I was a kid retire.

It was time for him to stop. It was great watching him play when he was in his prime. Also his stint with the Mavs was entertaining as both him and Dirk were likable. He just is too old at this point.
