Drew Gooden談07騎士：我們是LBJ帶進總冠的球隊中最沒天賦的

LeBron James has a career record of 4-6 in the NBA Finals, and while many use th
at as a knock against him, there are others that staunchly defend that record.

LBJ在NBA總冠軍系列賽的戰績是4勝6負，雖然很多人拿這點攻擊他，但也有其他人堅定的捍
衛這一紀錄。

The primary reason why some believe that record is actually quite impressive is
because James managed to take some pretty mediocre rosters to the Finals. In fac
t, one of James’ former Cleveland Cavaliers teammates, Drew Gooden, recently ex
pressed his belief that the 2006-07 Cavs squad was the “least talented group”
James ever took to the Finals.



“I think they might be halfway right on that one,” Gooden when asked by a TMZ
reporter about the flack that roster has received over the years. “The reason w
hy, I ain’t gon’ say scrubs, but you know what, I just want that to glorify ho
w raw and talented LeBron James was at that age.”



Then after a bit of back-and-forth conversation, Gooden put his stance in no unc
ertain terms.

經過一番交談，Gooden毫不含糊的表明了自己的立場。

“We were the least talented group that he led to the Finals,” he said.

Gooden：我們是他帶領球隊進入總冠軍賽時最沒有天賦的球隊。

Looking back at the roster from that 2006-07 season, there is no doubt that Jame
s was not surrounded by players who would have likely otherwise advanced all the
 way to an NBA Finals appearance. After James, who averaged 27.3 points, 6.7 reb
ounds, 6.0 assists and 1.6 steals per game that season, the second-leading score
r on the team was Larry Hughes with 14.9 points per game.



The frontcourt of that team was led by Gooden himself and Zydrunas Ilgauskas. Ot
her names that Cavs fans will remember, but perhaps fans of other NBA teams have
 long forgotten, include Anderson Varejao, Eric Snow, Sasha Pavlovic and Damon J
ones.



It’s definitely not a very talented bunch, and while the Cavs were dominated in
 the 2007 NBA Finals by San Antonio Spurs, the fact that James was able to take
that team to the Finals at all should be considered a very impressive feat.
