<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Former Cavs forward Jumaine Jones, now with the Lakers, is not surprised that LeBron James is having an incredible season, one that includes an All-Star selection. Jones received a preview when James participated in a pickup game at Gund Arena when he was still in high school. "When I first saw him, I told people that he was as explosive as Kobe [Bryant] and LeBron was still in high school," Jones said. "They didn't believe me then but they see now. I knew he was special the first day I saw him." </div> Source
Lebron is fantastic. He is a winner. Great guy off the court and a great player on the court. He is amazing at 20 years old. For him, he had 26 points, 8 assists, and 7 rebounds. That's darn good and he was sick last night. He went to the locker room since he was dehydrated. He still came out and played well in the fourth quarter. It's not just his stats. He is a good leader IMO. He makes guys like Gooden and Illegueskas better. He made Boozer into a huge millionare. He is everything that Kobe is not. He is lucky to have Paul Silas as a coach. Silas has done a very good job molding Lebron This guy is going to be special. NBA is lucky to have this type of caliber in this league and fans in Cleveland and nationwide are lucky to see this guy. I hope he keeps acting like this. He is a breathe of fresh air.
Agreed. Hes a great player but isnt anyone tired of hearing bill walton go on his rants about lebron?

Lebron's already became a household name and you hear nothing but positives about him. He's just what David Stern and the league has been looking for. Hearing everything from a former great will only bring out positives in the end.
