The hype you talk I think you have mistaken by the word popularity. Lebron is a popular man. When I say that it is an understatement. To be on the path to being a legend, to be "great" you have to be well known, you have to be popular. And how do you think he has gotten popular? Not by just dribbling the ball a couple times on the floor and passing it around and making a couple shots a night. But he has constantly grown in gameplay, he started with .410 when he came into the league back in 03, he is not .55 FT%, he started with 4.2 rpg, now he is avergaing 8.4 this season! And he is not even a 3 point shooter, but he is shooting .405 coming from just 0.2 %. Not bad when you realize that he is playing a forward. And improvements, other than his shooting percentages we all know he is one if not the best finisher in the NBA. People said he had no low post game, so he trained with Olajuwon over the summer, and is making more shots posting on defenders. Hence his shooting % is getting considerably higher. You have to give to this man to know what he is doing, he plays smart intelligent basketball. A hot head and egoistic, but has every right to be! Ill say it and not just because I am a fan, he is going to be one of the greatest who ever played this game. Plus his fan base outweigh his haters anyways. |

Anyone following the trade deadline rumors? Looks like the deadline is next Thursday, which means DW, Gasol, and Jamal Crawford might be possibly traded.
Mark stein said this about the trade with Orlando/Dwight: Quote:

So have been watching the Bulls play for a while now, as they are gonna play the heat Wed.
I have to say that the Bulls do 2 things very well. They rebound the ball exceptionally well, which gives them more second chance opportunities, as well defensive rebounds, which helps them ignite the fast break. On the fast break, DR is a one man show, amazing how the guy can change the ball direction in mid air, shows a lot of hops and control. His execution is amazing, loved the dunk he had on the Knicks last night. Another guy who I really like is Noah, he really puts defensive pressure in the paint, and his reach and length gives him the upper hand on rebounds. Hes also one of the many centers like TC who can actually throw down without it looking awkward, if you know what I mean, centers usually can throw down right by the hoop, but when they start to run they look weird. lol. Another thing I noticed is passing. The Bulls are a very unselfish team, they are able to rotate the ball enough to find the open man or the guy with the higHest % shot night after night. Also passing it to DR in the paint is almost a given, as that guy will drive to the hoop with no fear. I think the Heat are going to have a problem with their offensive rebounds. They don't get nearly as much as the bulls. As for match ups, Im looking forward to Chalmers-DR, maybe Bosh-Noah?. Also can't forget about Korver, the Heat have to keep an eye on him. Overall, this should be a really good game. Wed 3/14 ESPN @ 9:30 |

Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni resigns
Reports: New York Knicks coach Mike DAntoni resigns - NBA News | FOX Sports on MSN
There you go folks... Looks like D'Antoni is stepping down as head coach of the Knicks.. And it seems Carmello Anthony is part of the problem. We were winning more games with him on the bench. As soon as the ball touches his hand the ball stops moving... And the way he's shooting this just doesn't work... Curious to see where it goes from here... |
