    He was creating for others. Some of this has to go on coaching.

    He rarely plays off the ball. Coaching has to do a better job of getting him in a good position to score or draw a foul. If they lose this series, I still feel that Rick Adelman would make this team ridiculously incredible.

    He was passing the ball, but he wasn't creating. You don't create standing still on the outside getting rid of the ball because you want nothing to do with it.

    He was off and ended up scared to shoot in the 4th

    He led the team in rebounds assists and steals. He wasn't hitting his shots so should he have kept jacking up shots like kobe?

    cheap shot, personal foul on Kobe.. at least he wouldve came through in the clutch unlke Lebrick which wouldve negated ill advised shots.. same for Jordan, they would not have shied away in the closing moments, thats for sure.. thats where that lack of heart and killer instict in the biggest of moments lacks with prince james.. your defense of lebrick isnt logical and makes no sense

    He didn't even get the chance to choke.. he never even showed up, which is even worse.

    this.

    With lebron phisical skills even if his shoot isnt falling he can always attack the basket and score. But he really choked, looking all the time to pass the ball fast out of his hands.
    MJ was always the best player on his championships teams... if miami wins the championship, lbj will be second to dwade on this series. This guy dosent belong on the mj conversation.

    Absolutely. Had Lebron resembled Kobe last night they'd won

    He's definitely playing third fiddle behind Wade and Bosh in this finals.

    He weighs more than both of those guys and plays more minutes.

    JTerry was right, he cannot continue to play defense that intense all series.

    LOL!
    LeBron stans trying to justify his ****ty performance.
    :rolleyes:

    LeBron is NOT a Killer.

    Killer's isn't passive.
    Regardless of %'s and what not, you will not see Kobe just lay an egg in a finals series like LeBron is doing.


    Luckily he still has time to make up for it.

    Not just offensively, but also defensively.

    On the last lay-up of Nowitzki, Lebron was on the strong side guarding Stevenson. He didn't even make any kind of move towards Dirk. It was Wade who had to fly in to the paint to help out to try to stop Dirk.

    The longer the games run and the series go, Wade will get beat up. Advantage then goes to the Mavs who are earning a lot of respect and believers.

    Yeah, Kobe sure came through in the clutch this year against this same Mavs team. That's why his team choked away leads at the end of each of the first three games in the series, right?

    Lebron was pretty bad last night (other than a few nice passes), but I wouldn't call it a choke job. I wonder if the 45+ minutes per game throughout the playoffs is finally catching up to him.

    Now, the guy who missed the game tying free throw with about 30 seconds left definitely choked.

    You can't choke if you don't show up, like Lebron James' 4th quarter performance.

    The new labor agreement will feature "The LeBron Exemption".....after Dallas wins this thing leaving the King with no ring.....Stern will make sure that the salary cap has a loophole so that Dwight Howard can just move a few miles south.

    After all with Durant already more than ready to be the next big thing, Stern must make sure his will to make LeBron into Jordan's "worthy successor" is fulfilled, if only cause he can't stand not to get his way.
