I'm not sure if it's their age at the beginning or the end of the season but it's clear that they were less than a year apart in regards to their age
I'm not sure what you're trying to imply with him overcoming the Pistons... are you trying to imply one route was easier/harder than the other?
Just looked up Kobe... didn't realize he won his first title at 21. Yes, I know he had Shaq. Just didn't realize he won that young. (I was in high school)

I'm absolutely trying to imply that Jordan had a harder route. People forget how stacked the Pistons, Lakers, and Celtics were in the 80s (the Pistons were late to the party, but they were still stacked by the end of the decade).

Okay, I must have read your tone incorrectly. I thought you were implying the opposite.
So yea, I couldn't agree more with you.
With all that said though, a championship is a championship *cough*Rockets*cough*
Congrats to LBJ. He had one of the greatest runs I've ever seen.

I loved when he called him a contrarian.

Hindsight...once the Heat got pay the C's,they were just at a different level. This serious was like the Red Sox-Cardinals in 2004.

I agree with everything Mark Cuban said.
However, the average ESPN viewer would rather hear generalities and hyperbole than real substance.
Mike Mayock made a comment about this during the draft. Before he went into a substantive response to how Tebow will work with the Jets (not even in depth, anyone with even a little knowledge about Xs and Os understood), he prefaced it by saying something along the lines of 'that sound you hear is remotes across America clicking to something else because I'm about to talk Xs and Os'.
It sucks for fans who love the strategic aspect of sports.

I love Mark Cuban.
I mean, Skip Bayless is an act, a character, I think most people know that by now, but Cuban eviscerated him to the point where he couldnt even keep his act up without stammering all over himself. Awesome.

Nash is 800 times better than Lin, that's why.

Our other guards are Mike Bibby & Toney Douglas. The Knicks need another PG badly.
