    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James was named today as the NBA?s Eastern Conference Player of the Week for games played Monday, November 13 through Sunday, November 19.In four games during the week, James led the Cavaliers to a 3-1 record by averaging 29.5 points on .513 shooting, 6.3 rebounds and 5.8 assists. He ranked second among Eastern Conference players in total points (118) and third in scoring average. James has now won the award nine times in his career. (Once this season, five times last season and on three occassions during the 2004-05 campaign.)He led or tied for the team lead in scoring in each of the four games during the week and scored at least 29 points in each of the Cavaliers? three wins. He scored 22 of his game-high 32 points in the second half against Portland on Nov. 15 and posted 37 points, nine rebounds and six assists in Cleveland?s win over Minnesota on Nov. 17. Cleveland?s 7-3 record this season puts them in a tie atop the Eastern Conference standings with the Orlando Magic .The Dallas Mavericks ? Dirk Nowitzki was named the Western Conference Player of the Week.</div>I love how Lebron gets a huge write-up while Dirk gets a little sentence. Figures [​IMG]

    LeBron sells, what can I say? He has been really good during this past week. Like Friday against the Timberwolves, no one could stop him when he got the ball on an outlet pass and decided to take it to the rim, half of the time there were three Timberwolves back and they still couldn't stop him. One time there was four Timberwolves back. He is just amazing. Usually I hate seeing players do that, pull the ball out and wait if you don't have a clear shot at the hoop or numbers, but with LeBron it is different.Ah Dirk, he is ok too, I guess. :closedeyes:

    Dirk isn't black enough to get mentioned in detail.Yeah, he ran all over Memphis this week, since they are completely Pauerless.

    Not black enough...ahh, if you only knew the truth in your words, lol.Actually Dirk is a big deal in Europe, like Yao is in Asia...he should be given more respect than that.Both guys deserved this honor though...that's for sure.
