Cavs-Hawks Second round series

There's no comparison between them at age 24, LBJ smokes Michael (other than PPG). He single handedly took them to the finals in 07, won two other playoff series (both followed by competitive 7 game series losses). He looks poised for another finals run with help to do something when they arrive.

At that age, Michael won 1 playoff game (not series) in 9 tries. But then, that's not what made Michael the legend he is.

:mad2: :shake: :sad:

Feel kinda embarassed about my Hawks and how they aren't giving your boys much of a series. No Horford, Marvin, or JJ spells doom and it's a shame we can't compete at 100% :sad:

I'm still damn proud of them. While we don't have a career all star leading the charge I feel like we're the Cavs of 3-4 years ago. Talented, but still looking for the right pieces to make a serious post season push. Couple more seasons....

Some of Pippen's individual accolades and accomplishments include being named to the NBA All-Defensive Team eight times and the All-NBA First Team three times. He was also a seven-time NBA All Star and was the NBA All Star Game MVP in 1994. He was named one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History during the 1996?97 NBA season.

I love me some LeBron and he is getting better every year, but what remains to be seen is if he becomes the clutch player Jordan was with the game on the line. LeBron continues to improve in this area after drawing a lot of criticism leading up to this year, but MJ was a stone cold killer with the game on the line. It was basically an inevitability that the Bulls were gonna win with the game on the line and MJ with the ball...fuck I hated that bastard. Hopefully LBJ gets there, and I think he will, but right now, with the game on the line, I take Jordan in his prime 10 times out of 10.

Above all of that however, his greatest accomplishment was playing on a team that had Michael Jordan.

it also helped that jordan never had to worry about the refs if it was a close game at the end. dude got away with BLATANT shit all of the time. Now I know superstars get the "calls" in the NBA but it was so obvious that even if he did commit a foul/mistake it would NEVER be called.

like i said Im biased as I loathe him so its just my opinion.
