It looks like LeBron James was right. He couldn’t play any worse than he did on Tuesday night.
Going from 11.1 percent shooting to 25 percent is, technically, an improvement.
While Paul Pierce and Ray Allen got back into the swing of things for Game 2, LeBron was still, for a lack of a better term, “befuddled.” He led the Cavs with 21 points - nine more than his 12 in ...

Celtics Take 2-0 Series Lead Over Cavs
soxanddawgs.com 5/9/2008 — LeBron James said he’d be better in Game Two against the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference semifinals. It would be hard to be any worse than the young super star was in Game One. But the truth of the matter is James is shooting a mere 19% in two games and his Cleveland Cavaliers find themselves in a 2-0 hole after an 89-73 loss to Boston on Thursday night at the sold out TD BankNorth ...
The LeBron Rules: Celtics Contain James, Crush Cavs

James had a game-high 21 points plus six assists and five rebounds but he shot just 6-24 from the field and committed seven turnovers.

Hoops Addict
Michael Jordan had one. Magic Johnson had one. Even Lebron James had one in last year’s Eastern Conference Finals, now he just needs to have another.
The “one” is called an alpha dog game, and after another putrid performance in the Cavaliers’ 89-73 Game 2 loss to the Boston Celtics, James must summon another one of these performances to rescue his team from this 0-2 deficit.
During the ...
LeBron’s Our Bitch —
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans
The Celtics defense against LeBron James is downright Belichick-ian. Simply put: They are in this guy’s head. The King followed up his 2-18 FG, 10 TO masterpiece in Game 1 with a 6-24 FG, 7 TO beauty in Game 2. I doubt he’s ever had a worse two game stretch in his life. Ray Allen came back to life with a stellar 3rd quarter. And the bench, mainly Powe, Posey and Cassell were ...
LeBron: “I can’t play no worse than I did last night” —
Cleveland Cavaliers
LeBron James said that on Wednesday, a day after what might arguably be the most dreadful playoff game of his career.
There were 16 missed shots compared to just two that found the bottom of the net. The final field goal percentage read “11.1 percent.” He finished with 12 points, which was more than he did in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals last year, but eight of them ...

RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans
Let’s get one thing straight right away: KG was a monster that shut a lot of people up. He carried the team offensively, and he drove hard the hoop for what turned out to be a game winning layup. Awesome game for KG… and that aggressiveness should scare Cavs fans.
But I want to make sure that the defensive effort on LeBron isn’t lost… especially since the ...

If this game were a building, it would have been condemned and torn down; if this game could have looked into a mirror, the glass would have ...

If you didn't stay up and watch Game One between the Cavs and Celtics I don't blame you. I've watched just about every San Antonio Spurs game over the past 8 years, and none of them compared to how boring this game was until the last few minutes (actually even those were boring). Dick Stockton and Mike Fratello called it a "defensive war" multiple times during the contest, but people were just ...
