[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Reading some other message boards and people are trying to say its LeBron's "fault" lol give me a break, nobody else could do shit for the Cavs offensively. Delonte was the only one who really did anything at all and he missed some big shots himself. Really don't see how you can blame a guy who dropped 45 points on the road in Game 7 and consistently set up shots for his teammates, only to have them miss. Not to mention the Cavs where playing 4 on 5 the entire team on offense since Ben Wallace has no offensive game what-so-ever. Anyone see when he caught the ball in the post with his back to the basket and nobody behind him? He could have just turned around took one dribble and dunked it instead he passed it away in like .02 seconds lol

As for the Pistons destorying the Celtics because the Celtics struggled with a one man team, pretty sure the Pistons lost to the "one man team" last year so I dunno. Plus the Sixers went into Detriot and won a game, so we'll see what happens here. Everyone thinks they are Miss Cleo or something

I was thinking the EXACT same thing! As a matter of fact, i believe they were down by one at that time, which if his ass wasnt so afraid, he could have done exactly what you said and possibly changes the tide.

YES. I think they were in the triangle or something and when the ball went down to Wallace he immidiatley threw it to Lebron. I think he had Posey gaurding him like 4 feet away.

But what did you expect? Everyone knows Ben has no offensive game. Even he knows it which is why he looked to pass first. All it took was an aggresive move to the basket to draw at least a foul. But when he kicked it out and Lebron missed the shot I figured "meh, they got what they payed for.One defensive minded player to help them get to the finals. Glad it worked out for them"
