Gotta love Howard taking over.

He's trying to do too much.

Kobe has won 3 chips in the Finals. Lebron was swept in his ONLY appearance. If he were playing like Kobe, he'd have a ring by now.

Congrats Dwight. One more to go.

3 rings and 81 points Midranger. As much as you guys would like to take that away, you can't.

3 rings as the 2nd best player on the team, let's not overlook that

Whoa, red-headed brace face. She has absolutely nothing going for her.

Fixed.

Speaking of Dwight Howard, he's no dominant center on the level of the Robinsons, Ewings, Olajuwons, and Jabbars. He's a great rebounder and shot blocker. He's more prime Ben Wallace than Hakeem. There are holes in Dwights game. If LePrince goes down, let's not start with the "he lost to a dominant center" excuse. You guys are full of them.

Newz · Post #2571 » by **Newz** » Wed May 27, 2009 3:39 am

Also, if this keeps up, Dwight Howard will join the Kobe vs. LeBron discussion.

He has outplayed LeBron as far as this entire series goes, IMO. He has been absolutely dominant inside.

I'm still not sure what those 3 rings before Lebron was out of highschool while riding Shaq's coattails have to do with anything in such a discussion.

Kobe shoots 40% while his opponent goes off. He's Jamaal Crawford in the finals.

so if lebron gets every call, what's the deal with those last 2?

Kobe isn't in the discussion IMO. Its LeBron, CP3, then Dwight in my eyes.

... 27/14/4 with 3 blocks on 10-16 shooting, making clutch FTs.

What else do you have to do to be considered dominant?

I think you just dislike LeBron so much, you will say anything to make him look like he is worse than Kobe.

Cavs are in deep crap.

Kerb Hohl · Post #2578 » by **Kerb Hohl** » Wed May 27, 2009 3:41 am

I love when a prime strategy is jumping into a guy knowing you can get a foul.

The NBA: Where stupid happens.

Sigra · Post #2579 » by **Sigra** » Wed May 27, 2009 3:41 am

I never saw any player get that much help from refs in my entire life. It is disgusting. LeBron is nice player but this is crazy. Do this refs know that there are cameras all over place and people can see their criminal decisions? I am thinking to not watch NBA anymore even if Orlando win.

Oh you mean one of those 2 where he completely leaned into Dwight to try and draw the foul?
