It would be like deciding to double team Lamar Odom every time and let Kobe and Pao go 1 on 1 all game.
It is insane. And it worked. And it let a team barely above 0.500 since its trade get within 1 pt with 2 minutes to go and the best player in basketball on fire.
To say that coming that close to beating a team with 20 more wins in the regular season with a strategy that not 1 poster ever suggested using to beat us this season is not special is just not giving the guy his proper due.
When Doc comes up with a novel strategy that lets us completely exceed expectations let me know.....
I agree to a point, but it becomes skewed when you realize Ray is in a slump and LeBron is the man in question.
If Ray wasn't slumping and was hitting his shots regularly, are we even having this discussion? Probably not.
