LeBron shut down.
Pistons won 79 - 76
Big Z had a great game with 23pts and 13 boards
Hamilton had 24pts and 7 Assists
Lebron James had 10pts (on 4-15 shots), 10 reb, 9 assists and 4 steals in 45 min of play
IMO, he needs to score alot more if the Cavs are to get past the Pistons
I think the Pistons will claim this one in 5
What do you guys think?

I`d lurrrve to see the Pistons go down - its anyones series, though of course the Pistons are the red hot faves... Big Z will be critical (i thought this before the series as well - honest)... If he`s playing at his best he can make the Cavs offense operate much more effectively - i just wan`t to see if LeBron is ready to begin his rise to greatness...

You had a guy that was one assist off of a triple double, and you would describe that as 'shut down'?
Sure, below his usual scoring punch, but that stat line is pretty good. I would love to have those stats in a game I was shut down in...

Held scoreless in the first
Shot 5-15 for the game
Didnt get to the line
10pts a playoff low for him
Yeah almost a triple double is great, and i too would take that every game
But i would say the Pistons shut him down
That is not a usual Lebron night out

Fair call Fez...maybe The Jordan Rules were instigated as he is the only dominant scorer on that team...
Nice stat line though apart from FG%
