Official 2008 NBA Playoffs Thread

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
lol my buddy would love to go back and forth with you...he'd tell you that lebron is the new hybrid player and that people like Kirelinko shouldn't even be in the league, but everyones agrees to disagree thats why we have lounge's on forums!!! All I can say is go cavs tonight I know they realize that it is win or watch boston play in the conf. finals but I think Lebron will step up to the plate just like he put away your pistons last year, only to fall miserably short to the spurs.;)

I would like to have that conversation, because while LeBron is certainly a hybrid player, AK is without a doubt one to. Any guy that you can play at more than 2 positions depending on scheme is what I would call a hybrid player. AK definetly fits that.
 
I agree, but at the same time Lebron can play 3:). He is a natural at getting to the basket 3, he can shoot lights out and drive and create contact and get the foul 2, he can certainly run the point and which he regulary does in the 4th quarter and gets his assists. You really can't argue with that, I only know one player in the league that could also deman respect from all those posistions and thats kobe, but we all know phil would never run him at point.:D:popcorn:

I agree that LeBron is a hybrid, but so is AK. He can play 3 positions depending on scheme.
 
I'll give AK his props if they make this a series and create a game 7.
 
Well, knowing AK they won't, or at least he wont. He has the potential to be an awesome player, but he does not work hard enough on his offensive game. He tends to come up missing at the end of games, and I believe it's due to lack of confidence. If he worked hard enough, he would get much more respect.
 
you guys are forgeting that Lamar odom is a hybrid player as well 6'11 can handle the ball, pass, shoot the outside J as well as the 3, rebound...next year when bynum returns and odom swings from the 4 to the 3 the lakers will be scary
 
Now the question is can my man lebron come through on the road in game 7, I think he can. He better...:nilly:
