    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.

    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

    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
