Doc's Defense on Lebron

We don't change our defense very often, but we decided to just trap him every time off pick and rolls and I thought that was good for us. We made LeBron find people. He did and they just didn't make shots.

--Doc Rivers, after the Celtics 92-87 win over Cleveland

Despite the Michael Jordan comparisons, LeBron is no MJ. And, even if he were, not even the one-man show could upend the Celtics in the 1986 playoffs. The Celtics won that series 3-0, and I expect the Cs to down Cleveland in 5, if they should meet in round 2.
