NOVAX5: You seem to know your stuff and I'll give you that. I think you called it 3-1 Orlando before hand and I'll give you that to. You speak of matchup issues and that is correct and everyone knows it.

However, let me say that there is no hype when it comes to Lebron. He is the best player in the NBA and he is single handedly carrying the team. There is no denying that either.
I don't like Kobe for a lot of reasons, I am not going to into right now. However, I don't have a problem acknowledging his talent and competitive nature. Calling Lebron's talent as hype is like not seeing the sun!!

As to the media hype and Vegas making money. I never bet on sports. I am just your regular fan who enjoys the game. With or without Lebron I would be watching these games.

Back to the issue at hand: I still think it is coaching issue... they have not figured out how to defend the 3 point shot and that why they are losing. Boston did and Cleveland can't!
