Just read that LeBron held Rose to 6% from the field when he was on him. Unbelievable.

Lol because James isn't a SF and Rose isn't a PG. James better be able to shut down Rose.

How is that unbelievable? Rose can barely get off shots against LeBron, he is 6 inches taller after all and faster..

So I guess Jason Kapono would have shut him down equally? He's a SF.
Lol no. LeBron is one of the fastest players in the league at 6'9" 260. If he couldn't shut down Rose I'd feel bad for him.

5 inches.
All I'm saying is that the MVP of this league should be able to hit more than 6% of his shots , no matter how good the defender is.

He's not used to a defender like Bron. Normally when he's on the court he's by far the best athlete..but Bron is arguably the best athlete the nba has seen so of course he's gonna have trouble.

He had times where he blew by him or lost bron but he couldnt covert..look at the end of game 4...he had bron on skates but he lost the handle and therefore the jumper was fucked.

Then yesterday he had the spin move floater over bron.

DJT assured me that the Bulls would be "fine". I can't help but feel like he is at least partially responsible for this.
