all in all the nba is fun to watch right now....




I think you have to give Lebron some slack regarding his first seasons, i agree if it took him 10 comparable seasons to do what jordan did it'd be significant... but he Averaged MORE points per game his rookie year in the NBA than he did as a Senior in HS.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
