At the time? Broke inconsistent jumper. No foot work. No post game and no mid range. Also with a laterally quick defender he can’t blow by guys off the bounce.

LMAO Lakers fans here do NOT like Qing James. What a welcome change compared to RGM where every Lakers fan defends him like he's their lover, despite shitting on him nonstop the 10 years prior.

You think Fat Bosnian and Elite Roid obsession are Lakers fans? Not even. Ask the real L.A. fan base like Rico2016, LAmbruh, Roundball, and others

When the Chicago Bulls only had 1 guy they lost in the first round every year.

LeBron in 2007 was the beginning of the end for Jordan as GOAT.

Lebron was losing to Dwight Howard with HCA.

The whole eastern conference was weak in 2007.

It took a TEAM effort to stop LeBron

It took Marion,Kidd,Chandler,and Stevenson combined to somewhat slow down LeBron and he still managed to hang 18/7/7 off 48% against the Mavs :bowdown:

And that was LeBrons worst series ever

LeBron was 22 in the 07 finals and was surrounded by garbage cans who barely made the NBA so the Spurs weren't even concerned about anyone on the Cavs outside of LeBron

Stop acting like LeBron was shut down on single coverage , stop acting so dumb

Pistons with 4 all star caliber players

Heat with Wade,Shaq and Mourning

No one expected the Cavs to come out of the East that year, everyone expected a Pistons vs Miami rematch

Wait what? Are you serious?

How did MJ beat all those "old" pistons in '91? Isiah was 30, Dumars was 28, Rodman was 30, Aguirre was 31, Laimbeer was 34.
Shoot, Laimbeer was a spring chicken compared to Jason Kidd.

Unbelievable.

Bruce Bowen was an elite defender in 2007. He was All-Defensive 1st Team and anyone who watched him play in the 2000s knows how great of a defensive player he was. He had amazing lateral quickness and was really an x-factor for the Spurs.

Not sure why you're highlighting him as if he was some old, slow, and weak defensive wing man.

Bowen didn't do anything special other than stay in front of Lebron in 2007. He was giving Lebron free outside shots. Lebron just didn't make them.

i give him a pass for 07 because he was 22 years old and had no business getting there in the first place plus Hughes was injured

2011 on the other hand...
