LeBron James to New York: Remember The 2008 Celtics

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 03:31:59 +0000

The 2006-2007 Boston Celtics finished 24-58. How did they finish the following year again? The New York Knicks will be horrible this season, but that doesn't mean they can't win an NBA Championship next season because in the NBA one or two players can change an organization. If anybody thinks that LeBron will not go to New York next season because the team will be bad is out of their mind. He makes everybody else on that team better with his presence. Take Rajon Rondo as an example. He was a nobody in the year leading up to the Celtics championship run. Then he was a solid starting point guard with Pierce, Garnett, and Allen on the floor. LeBron can make players like Nate Robinson and David Lee great role players for the Knicks next season. Some players are not made to be their teams' No. 1 option but thrive as the second or third options. Remember New York is not Cleveland. It matters more and it's more appealing to players in a league where stars stand out in the crowd. LeBron can make ...

Pivot Points: Lakers, Celtics Facing Questions in Wake of Two Game Skids

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 14:34:58 +0000

For two teams that are supposed to be the NBA favorites, the past two games have left the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers looking pretty ordinary. In Boston the home loss to the Atlanta Hawks can be pretty much summed up by a lack of rebounding on both ends. The younger, more athletic Hawks just beat up the Celtics on the boards. The mystery lies in this question, how do the long, experienced Celtics allow themselves to be out rebounded on their home floor? Good thing they didn't have to search long to find the answer. It basically boiled down to a lack of attention to basic fundamentals, namely blocking out opponents when the ball was in the air. Coach Doc Rivers basically said as much as he watched his players continuously beaten to the ball by the quicker Hawks. Although Boston had a discernible height advantage the obvious difference in athleticism was staggering. It could have been nullified by fundamentals, but the Celtics often found themselves reacting to the Hawks instead of ...
