I can agree with the bold. But you can't tell me a team who was by all accounts the best in the league should have lost in the second round of the playoffs. I'm sorry but no excuses here. Matter of fact in the Caves last game the only one who hadn't quit or given up was Shaq.

You want to know my definition of a leader. A leader who is someone who can lift the game and spirits of his teammates by the way he handles himself on the court, by the way he plays. Kobe plays hard every single game. He is all buisness and his teammates buy into that. I mean come on. When Kobe is on fire, the Lakers are on fire. He leads by example.
LeBron doesn't understand this yet. He just isn't as mature. He comes out throws chalk up in the air, gets the crowd pumped, and dunks the ball hard a couple of times. Don't get me wrong, I like LeBron but he just isn't the player Kobe is right now. I am sure he will develop more as he gets older but right now Kobe is the Dad and LeBron is Jr.

I will agree everyone has given up except for shaq in game 6! This season I think the cavs had the best team! Tehy just chocked for the most part! But you sound like you dont like lebron, you said he would be the best i the league if he didnt show boat!
I agree that Kobe is all buisness on the court!
