    yes, broken bones tend to hurt...he just plays so well that people forget.

    MVP candidate...and doing it with a broken bone in his shooting hand

    HARD FUCKING CORE

    That's going to hurt until that's healed.

    How many players in the NBA would actually be willing to play through this? I have a hunch LeBron would have been out a month.

    Shaq would've called it a season.

    Dwyane Wade would've gotten fat.

    Andrew Bynum would've torn a knee ligament.

    It would probably kill Greg Oden.

    Maybe he needs to break something then, and hopefully call it a career. It's pathetic watching him out there. Oh well...the more he's on the court, the worse the LeBrons are, and that's what matters.

    His stats tell the story of how bad he looks (granted I've only seen a couple games).

    When I've watched, he seems to be clogging the lane, making it tougher on LeBron to get to the hoop, which means it's tougher for Cleveland to score. It also doesn't help their cause that he really doesn't seem to draw much for double teams anymore, so teams are staying home on the shooters.

    And I really don't know if it's his fault, but didn't it take like, March for Cleveland to lose 8 games last year? I realize last year could have easily been an abomination too with how good they started.

    Yeah, I just looked @ his stats.

    Good Lord, please retire after this year, Shaq.

    And looking at 82games.com...they're a -.5 with him on the court and a +9 with him off the court.

    It's because he's Kobe, and he's a tough SOB.
