Cavs in 6.
on the real though, do you think Boston winning has any baring on Bron staying in Cleveland? I mean does he say to himself, we are so close, we lost to the champions....or does he still say "frick, we're never gonna get there?"

When a defender as terrible as Amare is can take Gasol out of multiple games, a defender as good as Perk is can make him a non-factor.
Amare's defense didn't take Gasol out of games, his offense did. If offense is what takes Gasol out of games, then Perkins' lack of an offensive game will allow Gasol to work less on defense, thus giving him more rest for offense. Perkins is a more physical post defender than Amare, but I don't think he's going to wear down Pau so much more than Amare. Pau was constantly having to hedge screens, switch on Nash, and be conscious of Amare shooting jumpers. He'll get a lot of rest guarding Perk. He'll definitely have to work for his baskets and second chance rebounds harder.

I doubt it. I'm sure he knows, as we all do, that the Cavs are likely going to take a step back next year as they regroup under a new HC.
Interesting SI article on the subject a few days ago, however. David Falk basically calls out Lebron and tells him to shite or get off the pot:

I just wish he'd fricking say something. I know he has to weigh his options, but he's basically been doing that for 3 years. He knows right now what he's gonna do, if anything this holding out for his "D-Day" is making him an even huger douche to his detractors.

Can anyone do anything right now? It would be better not to do anything so as not to take away from the playoffs. We will no more around that draft as moves then will probably occur to set up signing certain guys.

1. Is there any legitimate crticism of Lebron that is not considered "hate". If so what?
2. Who is better Kobe or Lebron? If Kobe (the easy correct answer), what skills or attributes specifally give him the edge?

But in the process, they are completely missing out on watching and just appreciating one of the greatest athletes of our generation. It's sad really.
This is how I was with Magic Johnson. I hated him when he played for the Lakers. I loved him once he retired, and now that I am older and can appreciate how good he was, I wish he was still playing. I watched Jordan and Bird enough, and loved all of it.
I don't hate Lebron, I just hate what everyone is making them out to be long before they have done anything to deserve it. I don't hate Kobe, I just hate him because he plays for the Lakers. Same as my deal with Magic. Although he seems like a prick, he's no more of a prick than MJ was when he was king of the hill.

IMO the worst thing Lebron can do is leave the Cavs. Why in the frick would you leave a place that is clearly committed to getting whoever and whatever it takes to get to the finals and win a championship. IMO the only reason to leave and go play for someone else is for the money. And say he leaves and ends up playing with Wade or Bosh, or whoever, there is no guarantee that he will win it all. Just look at the Lakers with Malone and Peyton.
