that doesn't affect my way of judging players. Like i've said, Lebron James is Top-5/4 in the NBA today (in no particular order - Duncan, Paul, Kobe)

What Lebron has done this year goes way beyond stats by the way. He's just got 'it'. He's killing teams at the end of games. Just crushing their spirit. My arguments in this thread haven't been based on stats.

It will take more than a couple dozen regular season games to prove it. and that's what i've been talking about : playoffs will tell the difference. One way or the other.

If your argument is that the Lakers are a better team than the Cavs, I will readily concede that, even though it hasn't been shown in their recent head to head matchups.

My argument is that Kobe is leading the Lakers (that have two starters named Fish and Walton) to the top of the Conference who not only was multiple MVP winners (Nash, Duncan, Dirk) but also teams that have been regarded as championship contenders (San Antonio, Dallas, Phoenix), and also the Conference that has just landed a Top-4/5 Pg in Kidd and a Top-4/5 Center in Snaq.
