Ecf

[tornado]

.. the guys at ESPN seem to have developed a major findness for their new logo and are calling this the "ECF"...

so what's everyone think of the ECF???

Here are just three simple thoughts I have....

-Celtics are playing great - age is no issue, but smarts, skill, and teamwork are winning

-DWade is a big crybaby despite being a tremendous talent

-LeBron is out of excuses...

In Cleveland he constantly whines about his talentless teammates (Anthony Parker, etc...)
Now in Miami he's surrounded by other superstars, so what's he got to complain about??

Here's what -- Starters - Udonis Haslem 1-5, 3pts + Shane Battier 5pts/2rebs + M. Chalmers 1-5 from 3pt, 3 asst & 3 TO & total BENCH production including BOSH - 5-19, 16pts, 10 rebs, 2 asst, zero blks

Thus LeBron in Miami has created the very situation he hates - no money to get decent supporting players, and on top of that LeBron's 30 or so shots attempted serves to strip the ball out of everyone else's hands and makes them inconsequential.
He is a tremendous individual talent but.....LeBron's situation that makes him mad is unfortunately the outcome of his own presence there.
If Miami fails to come back and win this series - LeBron can no longer blame his lack of a supporting cast...
He needs to look in a mirror, it's a team game and he is NOT a very good team player...

Since "The Decision" I have been for whoever is playing the Heat..

I had always like Wade but since they have been together he has been a huge crybaby...

Go Celtics

LeBron is quite the team player actually. Which is why the Miami decision was so bad - he walked into a situation where he wouldn't get the supporting cast he needs. He plays a very unselfish brand of basketball, but he needs competent players, going INTO their primes instead of leaving their primes (Jones, Battier, Miller, even Haslem a bit).

He should've walked away from Miami once the Wade/Bosh alliance was apparent - too much salary tied up. I think a LeBron/Bosh/Ibaka-like player front 3 with Chalmers and shooting guard X (Korveresque) would be the best starting 5 in the NBA.

Very well said. They do not have a dead eye shooter where in this league you need two.
