A credible threat?












OK, I admit. I still watch NBA playoffs. Since the Suns are gone, the only fun watching basketball is in LeBron. Last night's game in Detroit was just unbelievable. But it struck me odd that LeBron scored 29 out of the team's last 30 points. He didn't pass at all. He just kept attacking the baskets. If the Pistons knew James was the only scorer, why hadn't they used all the players to corner him? I know if the Pistons had double-teamed or triple-teamed James, there would have been plenty of holes in their defense. But at least you should try and see if the rest of the Cavs is really a credible threat. Apparently, the Pistons thought so. They would not take the chances with LeBron's teammates.

Or maybe it had nothing to do with the credible threat? LeBron was just too good?
