Did Boston use the 2-3 zone to stop Lebron ?

We're not talking about going from Kobe to Joe Johnson here. We're talking about switching to a dude who bends reality around him on the court.
Lebron getting into the lane = easy pass to Pau/Bynum/Artesr/Odom/Fisher hell even mbenga.
Mental toughness my !!*. You don't have to be mentally tough to force up 20+ shots and not make half of them.
your crazy if you dont think lebron switching places with kobe puts the lakers at an almost lock for a championship. lebron might even be able to get lamar to play consistent

Is 6/24 being stopped too?Originally Posted by ACBboyz84
some of the response in here say the Cavs is not a good team. How are they not a good team when they were #1 this year and also won 60 games last year ? Prop to Tom Thibodeau. Other defensive coaches need to take notes from him. Lebron is Stoppable
Cavs are a good team because of LeBron. The other players contribute, especially in team defense, but they won't be making much noise on other teams. Mo, Antawn, and old man Shaq weren't even the best players on their prior teams, unlike having someone like Pau, who was the franchise player in Memphis. It is important that LeBron gets help in a franchise player teammate or two for once.

Hmm...Wasn't Mo an all star in 2009? LOL I know I kid I kid...
I don't know about Odom being better then any of lebrons number 2's. Let's be honest here Odom is a great talnet but you never know what your going to get out of him. Artest is the same thing. He looked like crap during most of the season but did come up big in the finals.
I do get your point though. But what happens if you pair him with a bosh/wade and it still doesn't work? What do you say then?

Still going huh...like has been said before there was next to ZERO talk about Bron not having any help when the Cavs have the best record in the league for the past 2 seasons. When he finally does get this next superstar player and STILL doesn't win, what will be the excuses then?

While i believe Kobe is still better, Lebron himself can probably take a bunch of scrubs to the ECF.
Add another (franchise?) player like Bosh, you can def. bet they're going to cruise into the Finals. Whether they win it all or not, thats a different story.

Well, I won't say anything at least.
He gets Bosh/Wade, he needs to at a minimum be in a game 6 of the finals starting next season.

Thinkin on it, he reminds me just a little bit of Brett Favre treatment. Agree?
I dunno, I suppose it's too early to worry about him just yet, but I did see something yesterday that made me do a double take.
Over 22,000 minutes already for Bron. After 7 years. Kobe was at 16,000.
He's a freak, but at what point does the mileage wear on him (even though he hasn't had a bad knee or ankle yet)
Thought that was interesting when i saw it yesterday.

Ionno why you get riled up about folks getting excited about the power moves made by the Cavs. It looked good on paper, but it wasn't like trading JJ Hikckson for a franchise player. Word to Kwame for Pau.
