He didn't do it in the Orlando series which is why they lost as I explained to you ad nauseum last year and you completely failed to understand. Mo shot like crap and also they had nothing to contend with Howard. In the end, I do think they are better than last year. Simply because they have a semblence of an inside presence this year which they didn't last year who can somewhat provide a presence against Howard. I don't know if they are good enough this year, but they are much, much better personnel wise. They've played their last 8 games without last year's starting backcourt and won every game. I don't think they do that last year. Sasha Pavlovic and Wally Szerbiak were getting big minutes last year don't forget. Pavlovic is now Minnesota's 10th man and Wally is somewhere not near NBA basketbll arenas.

And in those 8 games, they played ny, nj, indy, minn, and the clips and 6 of those games were at home. Lebron could have had Steve Byk and Andy Serling in the backcourt and they still would have won those games. GPK could have played center (sorry kev, i had to).
Lebron KNOWS this team can't win and thats why he is pushing so hard for the jamison trade. Shaq isnt a presence against the likes of Howard. Howard kills him.
