Just turned it on.
I was also tempted to put Steve Francis over Nate Robinson, was a tossup.

So what you’re saying is… he’ll be noticeably absent in this final quarter?

Haha, that would be par for course for him.
They asked him about a hard foul before half time and he made a comment that it was “playoff basketball”. He actually believed it himself.
The ref’s definitely helped the Heat win this one tonight. I like the Heat and have to admit it was pretty bad tonight.
That was a terrific game. I would love to see a Miami-OKC finals (I have resigned myself to the fact that the Mavs are no longer a contender…).
Also I think Lebron just solidified his 3rd MVP.
Oh my goodness Blake Griffin is just abusing Pau Gasol.
Somebody help Pau. Somebody PLEASE HELP PAU.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP PAU GASOL!!!

I haven’t been watching so I instantly went to the box score after reading this post expecting to see Griffin with like, 30+/15+, and instead he’s at 13/12…
Consider me confused.

Much better thank you.
PG - Rose (Rondo’s speed with Westbrook’s jumping/dunking)
SG - Vince (on sheer athleticism, but really, Kobe/MJ/like 5 others are tied if we’re judging only athleticism… how would you “judge” prime Vince vs. Prime Kobe?)
SF - Nique
PF - C-Webb (in his prime was a tossup with Kemp, watch some old Michigan highlights)
C - Robinson… close over Olajuwon but he ran the floor a bit better.
Understand if I was considering skill at all the list would be way different.
Anyone wanna tell me why Bynum keeps thinking he should shoot threes? Anyone? Bueller?
We really gonna act like Lebron isn’t the best athlete the NBA has ever seen?

My list is subjective, just from watching them really.
I also think their showing in the dunk contests can play a part in this decision… That’s probably where they’ve pushed certain aspects of their athleticism to the limit.

Best Athlete for his size definitely. There have been comparable or better athletes at SF but none are 6’8" 260… it’s all about how you define athleticism which is completely subjective.
Holy wow wow, now THAT is an awkard video: http://www.nba.com/magic/video/2012/04/05/040512svghowardfiredreportsm4v-2057675/index.html
Dwight told Magic Front Office he wants SVG fired, they actually TOLD SVG that Dwight said that, and SVG told the media. What a dysfunctional organization.

He’s a great athlete for sure, but he’s NOWHERE NEAR the best athlete in the league right now, let alone of all time. To even suggest that he is is comical.

Then who is currently?
6’8" 280lbs, the combination of athletic ability plus having the skill that he does is hard to top. I’m all ears who is more of a freak than lebron?
Nate Robinson, Derrick Rose, Russell Westbrook, Gerald Green off the top of my head, and if I sat down and thought about it I could come up with several more. James is athletic for sure, but he’s only got the one leg, doesn’t handle contact well, isn’t particularly acrobatic and isn’t near as fast as people pretend he is. Having the advantage of taking 3 steps before you have to dribble on a breakaway will make anyone look faster than they really are.
