		<description><![CDATA[Secdominance, although I like your backing of LeBron, you&#039;re mistaken on his career stats.

They&#039;re actually 27.7 ppg, 7 rpg/apg

I&#039;d say actually better than Malone&#039;s career averages :)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nobody blasted Malone for leaving utah because his career was pretty much over. Stockton retired the year before, splitting up one of the greatest duos in basketball. Malone knew the jazz wouldn&#039;t be contending for the title in his last year in the league. He discussed this with Utah&#039;s front office, and they agreed it was better for both of them. Malone got to go to a place where he believed he had the best chance to win a ring, and Utah got his salary out of the way and went immediately into rebuilding mode. PS, Malone played one year for Los Angeles, getting paid less than the paycut Lebron took to play with Miami. Malone was a legend, and is second all-time in scoring, and Lebron may be the best player in the league right now, but he isn&#039;t averaging numbers even close to The Mailman&#039;s.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[if the heat wins will lebum &quot;the queen&quot; james invite his mother &amp; donte west to the championship celebration.

unlike jordan who carried and willed chicago to 6 championships - the queen could not win a championship in cleveland so he flew the nest and landed in a place where there are 3 stars.

legacy builder - NO

ratings winner - yes

God Bless George W Bush]]></description>
