There is something I do not get however .... for the life of me I cannot figure out how any team is going to stop Lebron James in a 7 game series this year ... he has been THAT good.

Lebron James scored 34 points and added 14 assists while Mo Williams chipped in with a career high 6 three pointers and a season high 33 points. Cleveland had lost 4 of its previous 5 road games before overpowering the young Blazers. As usual Brandon Roy led the way for the Blazers with 23.

The Mavs looked like Father Time stepped into their locker room prior to the game last night and slapped them with about 10-15 years. To think this game was tied at 67 early in the 3rd quarter.

Jeff Green scored 2 of his 26 points on a game winning turnaround at the buzzer to beat the Warriors after Jamal Crawford hit a short bank shot with 1.6 seconds left in the game. Russell Westbrook led the way for the Thunder with team highs of 30 points and 7 assists and Kevin Durant chip in with 27 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists.

Stu Parker	wow. after reading this blog....You are spot on. I do not deny Kevin Garnett's ability as a player but HATE the BS stuff he does...All negative crap.
	This is a very unfair article. Garnett is an Olympic Gold Medalist, an MVP, an ALL STAR MVP, an ALL NBA member and an NBA Champion... you know how many current players can say that? 2 others (Shaq & Kobe) and they are all considered among the best players at their respected positions in the HISTORY of basketball. The same should be said for K.G.

Ra	This is blasphemy. I hope a Celtics fan did not write this article.
KWAPT	How old is that clip of KG? C'mon..of course that was a punk move, but what was that, 10 years ago? It's simple: KG is a fierce competitor who uses intimiadation and mental toughness to strike fear in the heart of his opponents. If he is on your team, you LOVE him. If he is not, you may loathe him. But either way, he is a great player. You cannot deny that.
Alex	Wow, now we are going to call an Olympic Gold Medalist, an MVP, an ALL STAR MVP, an ALL NBA member, an NBA Champion, a player that has more 20-10-5 seasons than Larry Bird, Defender of the Year (2008 and most likely, this year) overrated? Hmm, right now I'm kind of smelling a bit of jealousy mixed with stupidity in this article.
Tweedster	This blog is poorly written, scattered and incoherent. Thankfully, someone else already tackled the inconsistencies and leaps of logic. Check it out hear: http://celticshub.com/2009/10/22/did-you-hear-kg-is-overrated/
Tweedster	Some actual statistics, and not just conjecture and strange conclusions based on the number of 'chips KG has. http://www.celticstown.com/is-kevin-garnett-clutch.html
SP	ron campbell must love the Lakers. Or the Cav's. Or the Magic. but he doesn't know @$@@ about basketball!
Ed The Sports Fan	I'm sorry, there's no way in life Allen Iverson isn't in the starting 5, especially ahead of Nash. Give a damn about MVP's, Iverson's done more with much much MUCH less and totally revolutionized the game. Other than that, I think your decade team is cool. -Ed.
