LeBron James doesn't want to hear anything about an asterisk.With a rash of injuries across the NBA and several playoff teams crippled because of it, there has been some talk that this might be remembered as a tainted season because of last year's lockout. There was some stigma attached to the last lockout season in 1998-99.For years Phil Jackson referred to the San Antonio Spurs title that year as having an asterisk attached to it because of the circumstances of that shortened season.The mere mention of that fired up James on Saturday as the Heat had a practice at Madison Square Garden. The Heat will look to close out the New York Knicks Sunday in Game 4."I don't think that's right to say," James said. "I'm not going to get involved in it. Every team works hard no matter if it's a lockout year or not. There's not much of a difference between 82 games and 66 games." Source: ESPN
eh, the injuries to the bulls and knicks are important, i suppose, but i think there are enough healthy, good teams remaining that whoever wins it will have earned it.
injuries are part of the game. so no there shouldnt be an asterisk. its not like other teams have cheated. in tht case there should be an asterisk
