From what I understand though he was actually a fairly genuine guy in High School and in his first couple years in the league. Then he got full of himself and his personality changed (according to a Cavs beat writer).

Derrick Rose is out tonight vs Denver, but it doesn't matter....WE SIGNED JOHN LUCAS!

Oh John Lucas. I remember I was at the game when he helped take down St. Joes in the elite 8. Awesome game.

I think LeBron did have a great work ethic, but once the summer of 2010 talk started 2 years ago, he really changed. Maybe not from a work ethic, but I think he got star-struck. I remember the first few years he could take over games whenever he wanted, but he tried as much as possible to be a leader for his team and get them involved. Last year he noticeably changed how he played and acted.

As for the Heat, their problem goes beyond the Big 3. Yeah the Big 3 are struggling to learn to play off each other, and everybody talks about their lack of an interior player, but the big problem is lack of consistent spot up shooters. Yeah Eddie House and James Jones CAN be deadly, but they aren't consistent. They really miss Mike Miller

Truth is they have quite a few problems.. honestly. If they could fix two of them they could be really good. At this point it is pretty ugly watching them. Who would have thought that? It is a waste of talent to see them walk up the court and jack up 18 foot jumpers all game long.

Shiver · 11-26-2010, 08:32 PM

But at least they got Chris Bosh going. Ever since the Phoenix game he has been his normal 20/10 self.

Holy **** Heat won a game.

Shiver · 11-26-2010, 09:05 PM

They're still winning 60 games this year most likely.

i dont think they will win that many, but they could get close.

Man the Bucks really **** the bed tonight. We are not a very good team without Bogut. Larry Sanders had a descent game though. I like what I'm seeing out of him.

I imagine they improve, fix some of the issues and they get Mike Miller back. It would be only involve going 51-15 from here on out. That's not that crazy. Even the Hawks can win like 53 games.

i just think 50-55 wins is more realistic. 60 wins is pretty impressive.

Ilyasova is a beast. I wish he played a more prominent role on the Bucks or would get traded somewhere that would feature him more.

He's had a rough start to the season, he's earning more minutes though for sure. Pretty good game tonight. It's all confidence with him. When he get's his shots to drop, more follow.

I actually really liked tony allen's defense against him haha. Was able to stay in front of him and that's the biggest part.

too bad he's a nobody.

Also, if only the heat could have traded Chris Bosh for Blake Griffin in the beginning of the season... that would have been suhweet.

ALSO, Russell Westbrook scored 43 points! will he ever reach superstar status??

He was so dreamy <3333333
