    Why did Hickson only get 1 minute of playing time?

    That had to be one of the most unremarkable triple doubles in playoff history. 27/18/10 is a sick line. But it didn't seem special at all watching it. I guess it was the 9 TOs and 13 missed shots. Lebron looked very ordinary for the most part despite those numbers. Worse he looked beaten. He has to work on a post game. He should have been backing down smaller defenders all night. He should kill the Tony Allens out there.

    The Cavs went into panic mode too early and then completely gave up. Those last 2 minutes were absolutely disgusting to watch. No defense. No urgency. No fouling. The Cavs just didn't care. This reflects poorly on Brown and James.

    Where does Bron go now?
    Somewhere with a decent point guard...Chicago has Rose, NJ has Devin Harris and could land John Wall, NYK has...

    Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

      Chris Duhon! (Though I think he's a FA)

      I just did my write up of where LBJ can go in the NBA FA thread.

        lol! Stupid Cavs. I can't wait to call in to The Dayton Sports Scene and make fun of Mark Neil, the biggest Cavs homer on Southwestern Ohio.

          SI.com is reporting Mike Brown has been fired. News conference with Cavs owner at 2:30 est.

            This speaks to LeBron's greatness. He goes for 27, 19 and 10 on a bum elbow, yet somehow looked ordinary and only draws criticism.

            I'm not sure how much of it is him being so great and how much is the fact that his team lost (LeBron wins, I doubt he gets criticized much, if at all, despite playing the exact same game - but alas, his teammates are atrocious). Likely some of both.
            I'm like LeBron James.

              His teammates are not as bad as people make out. Mo had a decent game last night. The problem with LaBron last night was not his positive stat line, but he had 9 costly turnovers.

                Owners says he is keeping Brown..

                How can you do that when he made the worse decision in who he put on the floor during the playoff's?? Hickson who played opver 60 games gets stuck on the bench and you put Shaq out there instead??


                Dude deserves to be fired and all this does is ensure LeBron is gone...

                  I agree.

                  I think Bill Simmons pointed out that Cleveland was 31-4 when Lebron played and Shaq was out with injury. Then they lose 4 out of 6 in this series (granted against a pretty good Celtics team). The blowout losses at home are particularly troubling.

                  Shaq clogged up the middle and messed up the entire team chemistry, making it too clogged in the paint for Lebron to get to the hoop as well. Varejao and Hickson should have played more and Shaq should have been a role player, maybe 10-15 minutes per game.

                  It's never a good idea to change the lineup so much during the playoffs -- terrible coaching.

                    Rumor on Houston sports talk radio is the Delonte West is sleeping with Lebrons mom and Lebron found out between games three and four. No link as it's just speculation for now. If true, that's insane.....and sick.

And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                      Do you listen to Charlie Pallilo on AM 790?

                      His show on the drive home is honestly one of the things I miss most about Houston -- that was very smart and interesting sports radio, far superior to any sports radio in Utah, that's for sure. It partially made up for the heinous traffic.

                          I've never heard of him but I'll check it out. I mostly flip between NPR and 97.5 the ticket. The ticket is the espn affiliate and the have some local guys on around my drive home.

                            LeBron can be so thin-skinned sometimes, he needs to get over this kind of stuff.
                            Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                                This story is picking up steam. It's being reported all over the net now. Even if false, these kinds of rumors kill friendships and in this case teams. The probability of James leaving increases everyday.

                                This is out there.

                                But this is also Delonte West.
