That Finals in 2004 still bothers me that we lost, especially after coming back to win Game 2 to even the series. I thought for sure we would win at least a game in Detroit and bring it back home for the final 2 games. All that work to get to those Finals by beating the Spurs and Wolves and then lay an egg against a team that was inconsistent on Offense. Detroit had a Great Defense but was very beatable. Had Karl not got injured perhaps we would've won?? Gary Payton played poorly in that Finals which was surprising, that really hurt us. Kobe would've had 6 Championships had we got that one and Karl would've got his Ring. Other than losing to the Celtics in 1984, 2004 was the worst for me. Out of all the Champions from that decade the 2004 Pistons were the worst winner, it would be between them and the 2006 Heat but the Heat had Shaq and Wade so I am not even sure I would rank them ahead of the that Heat team. The 2008 Celtics were definitely better and so were all the Lakers and Spurs teams that won it during that decade.

I can't accept any fake rumor of LeBron coming here because it's not going to happen. He's not going to fuck the fans in Cleveland again, plus his wife wants to raise their family there. Fuhgetaboutit.

Yeah I give a LeBron a 0% chance going to the Lakers. No way he leaves the Cavs again. He would get so criticized if he did. I give Durant a 25% chance because there is always a chance but it is highly doubtful that he becomes a Laker. It's been rumored by Stephen A. Smith that DeRozan wants to be a Laker and even wants to live in LA, not sure how true that is but I actually give this a 50% chance of happening. I wasn't really impressed with DeRozan against the Pacers though, I thought PG got the better of him. I think he is Very Good but not even in PG's league and not even close to LeBron or Durant. DeRozan and Batum are more comparable IMO, DeRozan is better but I think Batum is Good. If I had to rank those guys I mentioned I would say: LeBron - Great, Durant - Great, PG - Very Good/Borderline Great, DeRozan - Very Good, Batum - Good/Borderline Very Good.
