This. Van Gundy was all over Bosh last night saying, "He looked MUCH better than the game before. And, man, it looks like he really came to play today. I'm proud of Chris Bosh!!" Please. He's a professional. It's his job. He should have to be pushed to play hard.
Physically, I'm not sure there has even been a better athlete play any professional sport, in the last 20 years. Strangely enough, Lebron has also been a pretty damn decent human being since ESPN has been following him (1990s)....something MJ struggled with. I'm all for man *****s - but not while you are married, MJ. Like when Pippen lead the team to the playoffs, the year after Jordan retired? EDIT - what Trev said. lol Heat in 6 or 7.
I agree, but unfortunately that's not the truth. We'd like to think that professional athletes don't need any more motivation than their paycheck, but that's wrong. And I'm not a big bosh fan. He's the Heat's weakest link many nights. But regardless, he still had a hell of a game, especially when it came to the intangibles that don't necessarily show in a box score.
Like this? Kidding. He did play well, and has played very well for the last 3 games. He just bugs me. It'll be interesting to see what the Heat decide to do with him in the offseason.
All I know is I am really enjoying the flip flopping of Steven A Smith EVERY other game. It is absolutely hilarious. I think he is starting to confuse himself somehow.
Game 6 is all this series should be. Could go either way, and if it goes to 7 it will be one if the best NBA finals ever. Hell of a series already
This is absolute torture following this game on twitter on an iPhone... Hell the whole series for that matter. Having no Internet or TV sucks haha
Easily one of the best games I've ever seen. LeBron had 18 in the 4th. And people still say he's not CLUTCH?
Really? The spurs players got away with just as much garbage as Miami did. Fouls and free throws are a good way to look at how the game was called and who the refs "favored." FT Made-Attempted: SA... 21-28 (.750) MIA...16-21 (.762) Fouls: Fouls (Tech/Flagrant) SA... 21 MIA... 26
I saw the play everybody was crying foul on... What about the seven steps he took to reach the point of being fouled? Lol I hope Tim Duncan goes off in game 7 and wins it for the Spurs.
