Skip Bayless explains why LeBron James falls short of the top five NBA players all time
We will debate LeBron James' standing among the all-time greats from now until the end of time. How you feel about LeBron says a lot about what you value in your NBA legends, which is just fine.

CLEVELAND – Here we go, Game 7, the 1908s vs. the 1948s. The Cubs or Indians will win, provided the apocalypse doesn’t strike first. Or a deluge that is forecast to strike at about 11 p.m. ET, and could be the first rainstorm in history to perpetuate not one but two droughts. The beauty of Game 6 -- an otherwise ugly affair resulting in a 9-3 Cubs victory Tuesday -- is that it left the canvas blank for Game 7. A Cy Young candidate will start for each team.

Brady, of course, missed the first four games of the season — you might have heard about that. The New England Patriots quarterback certainly won’t lose sleep at night over his MVP candidacy, but as he continues to play out of his mind, the chatter about whether Brady — despite missing the season’s fir..>> view originalCurry has 28 points and Warriors beat the Blazers 127-104

After the game, Maddon was asked why he used Chapman as much as he did in what seemed like an unnecessary spot considering the Cubs’ lead. But the Chicago manager explained that he used Chapman in the seventh inning to ensure Cleveland did not mount a comeback, and he had the reliever pitch into the ni..>> view originalAP Power Rankings: Patriots still own No. 1 spot
