Also, they're leading the league in steals too. Their biggest defensive problem is having all those turnovers that lead to easy baskets the other way. | ||

what game are the people watching who make these "LBJ is coasting" comments. maybe he coasts against philly and brooklyn. on another note, i guess LBJ really wants to stuff those "posse" comments down Jackson's throat with a curb stomp of a win. EDIT: is Vegas giving Odds on whether or not a Green flying foot will connect with Griffin's family jewels. watching them jostle under the basket it really feels like its only a matter of time. | ||

He's averaging fewer ppg than any season since his rookie year and he's already sat out a game just to rest. If that's not coasting then I don't know what is. Sitting out games when you're not hurt is a new phenomenon, probably popularized by Pop. I don't remember seeing that in the late-90s/2000s. Only after that shortened lockout season with all those injuries. In Michael Jordan's last 3 years with the Bulls he played every game of every season, averaged more MPG than LeBron is playing now, and he was older than LeBron is now. | ||

Nobody reacted to JimmyJ's comment so he posts the almost exact thing twice. LeBron is coasting because he is capable to do even greater things than he is right now. He can play through regular season with 50% of his maximum effort. What that tells about the eastern conference is up to you to decide. | ||

A couple of those guys are coasting so much they're going backwards. Sometimes i think Thompson is doing his Andrea Barnyarni imitation. What position is he playing? rover? | ||

The Cavs play a lot better when Thompson camps out and plays his position. Who knows.. it could be some scheme they are experimenting with. whatever it is.. it ain't workin' Thompson is not always wandering around aimlessly and I've never made the claim he is always wandering. so sometimes Thompson camps out plays his position and the Cavs play well. Sometimes Thompson is wandering around like a lost puppy like Andrea Barnyarni.. whatever the Cavs are trying to accomplish when Thompson is not camped out.. it ain't working. maybe they are experimenting with some weird scheme.. who knows... but it ain't workin' Furthermore , by intentionally misspelling bargnani's name and picking a rat like Barn for comparison i figured people could pick up on the sarcasm and realize how bad Thompson sucks when he wanders around. Toronto and Minnesota are in a dog fight tonight!  | ||
