Moment of truth for LeBron James
Administrator
Everyone saying that he is the next Jordan (but did we say the same thing on Vince Carter and Kobe Bryant?). As the Nike ad goes, he is really the first LeBron James.
After his amazing display in game 5 of the Detroit-Cleveland series where he scored the team’s last 25 points, he definitely has made his mark in history.
Now the question is whether he could get his NBA ring in his first trip to the finals, following the footsteps of basketball greats such as Bill Russell, Magic Johnson, Abdul Jabbar and of course the legend Michael Jordan.
It’s going to be tough as the Spurs is a great team (although boring in my view) with plenty of NBA finals experience. The team is also very balanced with Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Gonobili to share the scoring burden. It will be pretty much a one man show for LBJ as his supporting cast is … well … just so-so.
Personally … I hope that the Cavs will win this but likely I’d say Spurs in 5.
