Why Kobe is still better then Lebron

Lebron is sick, he is big, strong, fast, and has improved his jump shot. He is a good passer, and can get to the basket at will. So why then in the biggest game of the season, so far, does he score 15 points on 3 of 15 shooting. A total no show. Bad shooting games happen, it was everything about the game, no fire, no attitude. If he drives to the basket he either scores, gets fouled or both, but yet, he was happy to sit on the wing, not touch the ball and let Mo Williams and Cadence Parker's brother shoot. That makes sense. He has all the physical tools, but last night he showed me he does not have the mental tools. Which is why I still say Kobe is the best overall basketball player in the NBA. It is true that Kobe has more help around him, but Kobe would never pull a no show like that in a big game. If his jump shot wasn't falling, he would post up, or get to the line, he would lock down on defense and find a way to get his team the win. Lebron not only didn't play well, he seemed like he didn't even notice, or care that he didn't. Which is more scary for the Lebron lovers of the world. I will admit being a Pistons fan I am not a big Lebron fan, ok, I don't like him at all, but I will still give him his credit when it is do, and I still think he has everything you would want to dominate the NBA for the next ten years, but he has to want to, maybe he doesn't. We will find out a little more about this on Thursday. In Boston how does he come out. Does he have the game 3 look in his eye when he just took over and they blew them out, or will he make a quick end to his Cavs career and sign with the Bulls or Knicks? We will find out tomorrow night. I am looking forward to see what Lebron is really made of.


Game 7 tonight, I want the Pens to lose so bad. It would really make me happy. Also Fylers can hold on one more night and force a game 7 if they can beat Boston tonight. Some good playoff hockey tonight.

The Tigers have won the first two games of their series with the Yankess. The first being a 5-4 win Monday night, the second being this afternoon 2-0 on a great pitching performance. Tonight they play the 3rd of 4 games in the series, it would be a big win for the Tigers, since it would guarantee a win in the series. Bonderman and Huges tonight. I would expect some runs, but it is going to be low 40's for game time, I would bet, so it may be another low scoring game. With both teams working fast, and trying to get the game over with as soon as they can. The Tigers continue to be frustrating this year. They play well at times and they have enough talent to be their to the end of the year. I just don't think they have enough to win the Central, which is what they need to do to make the playoffs. I'm right, you're wrong.
