Gert T 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2003 Pretty good game out there by Van Horn tonight, I only saw the first three quarters, but the 29 points combined with him looking like he was really hustling out there made for a good debut, of course with the Knicks team, he'll get plenty of chances to score 20+.

Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted October 30, 2003 They need to give Labron the ball more. No shots in the second quarter and only 1 assist while Big Goofy Eauropean man keeps missing shots (I'll never be able to spell his name, you know who I'm talking about) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tony149 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2003 Spurs are playing another sloppy game, if Nestorvich cannot score double digits then they need to start considering shooting more 3s or make more plays for Turkolu and Mercer. Missing easy layups are not helping either. These are going to be the type of games the Spurs are going to dish out for the next few weeks until they start to gel, the players get in their game shape (missed lay-ups, etc), and when Pop finds out which group plays well together. The fact both point guards are now hurt isn't going to help either. They appear to have their free throw shooting in control for now. The fact they had their chances at the end show me its only a matter of time before they break out. As for Nestrovich, he won't get much time if the Spurs keep trailing, especially against a running team like Denver. Pop gets lucky when he has a hardon for a player; I expect that luck to continue here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted October 30, 2003 1 assist away from a double-double and I believe if Boozer had gotten that last pass it would have been a d-d. Either way I can't complain about taking Lebron in the 4th round of my fantasy draft Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Redhawk Report post Posted October 30, 2003 The one thing better than tonight's LeBron Show: watching Ricky Davis try 110% to take some of that spotlight off James and put it on himself. It seemed like every time Ricky got the ball he was shooting, or he was trying to take it to the rack and dunk on everyone. I've got Thanksgiving in the "Ricky Davis gets insanely jealous and beats LeBron's ass on the team plane" pool. And I have to give a shout-out to LeBron's Right Hip, a.k.a. Jim Gray. If he gave 15 sideline reports tonight, 14.75 of them were about LeBron. I doubt Jim even knew who the Cavs were playing. The low point? He's interviewing Chris Webber, and everyone I'm watching the game with is just waiting for Gray to ask Webber about LeBron. And after the obligatory "How's the knee?" question, there it is: "So I know you're excited about seeing LeBron James..." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerous A 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2003 Impressive debut from LJ. Tommorrow will be key to see if he can remain consistent with back to back games. I think he'll show flashes of the game he had tonight and other nights he'll look like a guy right out of high school. Smart move by Silas to play him at the point. PG's are smaller than LeBron and will have a tough time dealing with his size. If and when he develops an NBA post up game, look out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smell the ratings!!! Report post Posted October 30, 2003 dude, Ricky Davis always shoots the second the ball touches his hands. He actually shot less than usual last night. Lebron looked damn good I have to say. It's hard not to like a point guard who scores 12 in the 1st and doesn't take a shot in the 2nd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Just J Report post Posted October 30, 2003 I am also happy with my choice of Lebron in the third round. The kid is good. I know he won't consistant all year, but as long as he has two games a week like last noght I'll be happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Choken One Report post Posted October 30, 2003 I found this interesting, Lebron was great last night and surprassed my expectations for his opening night and he seems baring Davis to have a good chemistry with the team. I like how he had a professional look, wasn't cocky yet not serious and He might be the first big name star to wear his shorts ABOVE his knees. That must have floored NIKE when they realized that Lebron doesn't rock it like AI and MJ do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted October 30, 2003 thing I liked most about Lebron was he didn't care about his stats at the end of the night, he just wanted a win and said he'll have to be more aggresive driving to the hoop and finding his teamates more. I think they're gonna have Marion guard Lebron tonight...should be interesting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NCJ Report post Posted October 30, 2003 I used the following in another post, but it sums up my feelings on Lebron quite well. As far as Lebron goes I think the kid is going to be the one. He has the athletic ability of a Finley or young Malone, and the unselfishness and ability to see the floor like a Magic. What impressed me most however was the way he wants to win. If you saw the interview with him after the game the first thing he said when they asked him how he felt about his first game was that he should have helped his teamates more and been more agressive when the Kings made a run. When they asked did he exceed his personal expectations, he replied I can't really think about that coming off a loss. You can't teach those qualities in a player. I really didn't expect that kind of response from him. If you would have asked Kobe, Mike, A.I., McGrady, or just about any other great player that ever lived after their first game with that many doubters around and you play that well in a loss what kind of response do you think they would have gave??? The kid is special, and I felt like I was watching history last night. If he can remain humble and continue to improve he will go down as one of the best ever. You really can't teach attitude. Lebron is a leader. He will do what ever it takes to win. Baring injury he is going to be something special. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will it be Ron Mercer or Turkoglu? depends what they want more of. If they want a better defensive presence then they go with Mercer. If they want more offense and want to be able to stretch out the defense more they go with Turk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
