some people on the sports blogs i noticed even journalists wanna chalk up this Celtics loss to the fact that the big 3 had a bad game...
and I'm out here sayin the reason they had a bad game is a direct result of LeBron's onslaught. For you guys that play basketball on a regular basis, you know when you're playing a team that has a guy that's just killing you, it literally deflates you mentally, and at that point truth is you won't be playing your best basketball. It happens at your local rec, and it happens in the NBA...
Thats what LeBron did tonight, he was in their head from the moment he had that full court blow buy Pierce one hander almost over Garnett...
except Rondo, that dude is beyond reasonably cocky.. in the post game interview when asked about LeBron he just simply said "it was too easy for him, we have to take away his air space and make it uncomfortable for him, he had it too easy"
this fuckin guy was feet away from what was happening he knows the the truth, but he's too arrogant to admit, he knows LeBron killed anything and everything Celtics defense threw his way, almost ALL of the shots he took were well contested, easiest shot he got probably was that sick putback where everyone seemingly forgot he existed....
so he's obviously saying LeBron had it easy because he and everyone else on the Celtics staff is guaranteed shitting their pants right now, if that's what he can do to one of the top defenses in the league....
Wade needs to show the fuck up though, but I understand the game plan for the Heat tonight Wades assignment was to slow down Rondo, and let LeBron loose... it worked

lets take one game at a time, please stop talking about heat vs thunder so early. Don't jinx the heat please. Would be a dream final if they win next game against Team wheelchair
Didn't watch the game but didn't expect Boston to lose at home. I guess its Miami-OKC after all. Pretty much 50-50. Doeas Miami have home court? Miami in 6 just because OKC beat my Lakers That's my "bold" prediction, Deal with it!
Are you serious?? There's a game 7 to be played....why are you making such stupid remarks??

you're right on the money. i hate lebron with a passion but i can admit that he destroyed boston...in boston...it's hard to make a come back when he's immediately coming back with daggers... that's why i had to listen with the TV in the background...i couludn't stand to watch the brutality. he came up big when it counted.
-A timeout from NBA playoff discussion. -I need your guys' advice on how to improve my ball handling.
-Do you know what basketball drills can improve a person's crossover, and dribbling on fast breaks?
-Ball handling, especially crossover, is a fundamental skill that is quite weak for me.
2-ball drills are very effective for ball-handling....but why don't you just take a ball and do crossovers and run up and down the court with the ball in control and slowly increase your speed as you get more comfortable with the ball....try to keep your head up while doing all drills...Once you get comfortable with both, try doing them together....run up and down the court and do like 4 or 5 crossovers each way...mix it up a bit - hezzy-regular crossover, between the legs cross, behind the back cross, double-cross, in-and-out cross, etc. etc....one thing's for sure though, it's not something that just happens over night...

that's what i used to do. especially with the left hand. so useful to be comfortable doing it with either hand

I've practiced so much with my left hand when I was younger that I actually feel MORE comfortable dribbling left and doing lay-ups left...it really helps to be able to say that since doing pull-up jumpers are way easier to do going left if you are right handed...

it's weird a lot of lefty layups i did were off-footed b/c it wasn't natural to me. then i hear jeff van gundy last night saying rondo's off foot layups are good b/c it messes with the timing of shot blockers i'm like

I often do the Grant Hill lay-up which is when you only use one step lol...also throws the defenders off...
