I just heard that the Lakers are still wildly popular. They are the largest attendance team on the road. The other 31 NBA cities/fans love it when Kobe and the Lakers come to town.<BR/><BR/><B>James</B>, I didn't remember that he hit them on 3 pitches only. That is remarkable. I do remember the game. I guess it didn't stick in my mind because it was against 'my' Dodgers (smile). Reggie was a remarkable player!<BR/><BR/><B>Ray J</B> - Your point is well taken. I appreciate your visit to our <I>village</I> and I hope you come back often!<BR/><BR/><B>Paula</B> - I imagine that the streets of Cleveland and Akron will be quiet tonight as everyone is in front of their television set to see if the Cavs can put the Pistons away in Game #6. I won't rain on your parade ... but, I would remind you that we saw this same situation last year before the Pistons won the final two games. I am reminded that a TEAM always beats an INDIVIDUAL. Unfortunately, I don't think that LeBron has any players that can step up in the next two games. Just my thoughts ... but, then again, the Pistons are my 2nd favorite team!<BR/><BR/>peace, VillagerAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001965827509309490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-48496840873242499142007-06-01T18:09:00.000-04:002007-06-01T18:09:00.000-04:00Thanks be to GOD for the Cavs winning last night.E...Thanks be to GOD for the Cavs winning last night.<BR/><BR/>Everybody here in Akron is SO excited. The sun was shining today and you could feel the weight lifted off LeBron's shoulders for not taking that shot the other night.<BR/><BR/>I thought LeBron was crying when he put his head in his teammate's arm.<BR/><BR/>I'm so happy for him.<BR/><BR/>He's so young and people put so much pressure on him but he is AMAZING in spite of his upbringing and what he's had to endure.<BR/><BR/>I just drove by his new house and took a glance at its progress.<BR/><BR/>I'm so happy for the Cavs.<BR/><BR/>I pray to the Lord that we take the Eastern Conference tomorrow night.<BR/><BR/>My hubby will be there. It should be so fun...I hope and pray.<BR/><BR/>Happy Weekend Wayne,<BR/>PaulaParis Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04830356488361957338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-42135048663210766632007-06-01T17:27:00.000-04:002007-06-01T17:27:00.000-04:00What is amazing is that people forget this man is ...What is amazing is that people forget this man is only 22 years old. They continually compare him to MJ whose body of work speaks for itself. They continually compare him to Kobe "Flip Flop" Bryant who was teamed up at one point arguablly the most dominate player in the game. This is why I love blogs because the media is always attacking and being negative towards players and blogs show you the real deal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-50366921253447601582007-06-01T13:41:00.000-04:002007-06-01T13:41:00.000-04:00This was along with Magic jumping center vs the 76...This was along with Magic jumping center vs the 76ers, the greatest mondern day playoff basketball performance.Unlike Magic, Lebron has little back,<BR/>My greatest sports performance is Reggie Jackson, game 6 1977 world series vs your Dodgers, 3 piches,3 swings, 3 homeruns, 1 world championship.<BR/>Ali's unprobable knockouts of Liston and Forman also deserve mention.<BR/>Le Bron proved this week, most sport writers are useless.JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10872363419681370456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-5160893030705646342007-06-01T10:47:00.000-04:002007-06-01T10:47:00.000-04:00Great points about Kobe & the Lakers.

I was a Lakers and NBA fan back in the "Showtime" days of the 80s but don't follow the league as much anymore, primarily because I'm sick of whining prima donnas like Kobe Bryant. Kudos to LeBron for one of the all-time examples of stepping up at a key time for his team.
