LeBron is clearly plenty tough enough to play any part of the game.
But he also has learned that he can get a few extra trips to the line with these theatrics and not have people hanging all over him or pounding on him.
I don't like watching it either, but the refs fall for it often enough to make it worth his time. And some of them are certainly real fouls whether he flops or not.

C'mon Jim, they did win it all, and then return to the finals last year.

Donini doesn't seem to know that Lebron is 3 wins and 4 losses in the finals.

I hate to see any great player go for the theatrics. I especially can not bear to watch Harden play. I wonder if great sport climbers will writhe in pain after falling off a painful crimp, when the cameras are rolling?

Ever see a broom fight in curling?
It's too brutal to think about, let alone talk about it.
Helmets should be mandatory!

That is some mighty fine basketball for you true aficianados to appreciate.
I wonder if Kerr comes back for the finals...i have a pair of game 5 tix...Donini, will there be a game? Passing and shooting and defense all together can be quite amazing.
Dubs are potentially a team so good, that they transcend themselves, being more about basketball in its most beautiful form, than anything else. Hopefully the Cavs can be a worthy opponent.

Three quarters Lebron, is, on his very Best day, a vague shadow of Jordan on a bad one.

Jim,
Too much time at high altitude may be affecting your thinking.
Jaybro: agreed, Jordan all day long...

Jordan wasn't even the best guard....West, Robertson, your pick.

Oh, I love the Jerry West reference. He was a real man of class as a player.
Warriors 1, Cleveland 0
22 point loss in the opener? Embarrassing!
