Ya know, I kinda want to agree with this, but I'm looking at this Cleveland team and I see a team that is clearly more focused than any other team besides Denver. LeBron has a look about him that he will not be denied. The last player I have seen have this look was Shaq, during the Lakers first title of their 3 peat. Now, that doesn't translate to actually winning it all obviously, but the Cavs look really good. They have solid rebounding, great perimeter defense, decent shooters, and the best player in the league. I don't see a team winning a game in Cleveland. They are just on a different level at home, and if they start out 2-0 in any series, that means a team has to beat then 4 out of 5 as the series progresses, and I just don't see it happening if they remain healthy of course.

Can't complain too much. LeBron is the best player in the league, and he's showing it nightly now.. Some want to say Kobe is still the best, but he can't handle and attack this well, and he doesn't put this type of pressure on a defense. LeBron is not only the best player in the league, but he's clearly the best leader.. He literally walked into Phillips, put his team on his back, and carried them to where they needed to go.. A combination of inside play, outside shooting, attacking to get to the line, and defense. He's the total package.

This mentality is something I don't understand. People hate on LeBron James because he's viewed as an all time great. The problem is, LeBron didn't ask for this stuff when he was younger. Sports Illustrated came to him and asked him to be on the cover of their magazine. ESPN decided they wanted his high school games on TV. He didn't ask them to do these things.. He gets this coverage because he's that good. Which is why I don't hate or dislike LeBron.. If I was going to channel my ill-will it would be to those institutions that put him on that pedestal, not necessarily him.. He's just playing the game, and is doing everything his team is asking of him. That team wins and they have fun doing it.. The Cavs are a very weird team, they seem to enjoy every minute of playing out there..
