Kobe, LeBron, Wade, Bosh, Gasol, and Phil Jackson all collide and die during the first ten seconds after the tip. Erik Spoelstra is exposed and he is exiled to the Canadian Basketball League the very next day.
Kobe missing shots to put his "supporting cast" in position to bail him out is part of the triangle offense. Douchebug said so so it must be true.
Kobe rarely shot an airball since Jazz series in 1999. LeBron on the other hand, couldn't hit the rim twice already in last few games.
Because Kobe always attracts double team on high post in that kind of situation. Teams wouldn't let Noah defend Kobe one on one. He's gonna hit a step back midrange easily.
Lebron has a below average NBA jump shot. FG% can be misleading. anyway to figure out his FG% excluding shots in the paint, but inside of 3?
LOL. at "always" attracts double teams. so funny you still believe that. hopefully kobe will play a great game tonight. he hasn't put up a decent individual game vs lebron in a long time. and the heat need to snap out of their funk. chris bosh, damn, soft like charmin. and mike miller, can he continue missing WIDE OPEN jumpers? very perplexed at his struggles.
that's a misleading claim. his jumpshot isn't elite as a kevin durant, but he's not below average. i would say he's a little bit above average. synergy has a lot of stats of where a player shoots at what his fg% is. lebron's weakest is 10-15 ft (but he's always improving), but 15-20 ft, he's just as good as kevin durant. but what will define lebron is how he takes the heat and make them better. right now, bosh and mike miller (3rd and 4th best players) are struggling. it's his job as the team's main playmaker to get them going.
It doesn't matter what you believe or not believe. He's got enough hardware to back it up. And is it LeChoker, or his fans, always have new excuses? Before, it was Mo, Jamison were scrubs. Now LeChoker has the best talents in the league, all of a sudden Bosh is a girl, Wade's overrated, and M.Miller can't shoot 3 if his life is dependent on it. The personnel around queen change a lot but the theme remains the same. It's not his fault.
why don't you go to synergy stats and look it up yourself? instead of creating your own grades. it isn't that hard.
first of all, wade is not overrated. he's been the 3rd or 4th best player this year as usual. and yes, you can blame lebron for not making chris bosh better. thats his job. i blame lebron for that. as one of the best playmakers in the L, you gotta get chris bosh going. but umm... mike miller missing open 3pt shots? i don't think there's anything anyone can do about that. and mo will? how has he been doing this year? is he an all-star? yes, thank god kobe has the hardware to back him up.
Are you trying to say you didn't complain a lot on Wade this season? You can be biased in your opinion, but don't lie in public.
i said lebron is a little above average, so i would say he's 6-6.5/10 as a jumpshooter. kobe is a better shooter than he is so i don't disagree with your 8-8.5/10. i always respected kobe's jumpshooting game b/c not a lot of great scorers develop their outside game (and not just 3pt shot) a 3 is a bad grade on your part b/c lebron has not gone to the basket as much as in his previous cleveland years and he's still shooting 50%. that tells you his improving jumpshot. and hopefully it'll continue to improve. for jumpshooters at the elite scoring level, i would put KD as #1 and kobe as #2. we can argue kevin martin but his shot creating level isn't as good as those 2 guys.
wade has had 6-7 pathetic games this year. and i have complained about those. but the season has been 60 games or so. that still puts up at around the 3rd or 4th best player this year we all know how many bad games kobe has had? do you want to count? also goodbug, remember to donate $100 when the regular season ends. just a reminder.
LOL @that ever happening. This guy is a welsh if I ever saw one. If anything LeBron has proven everyone right: the Cavs are historically bad without him. And for all of the Heat's "struggles", they are still one of the top teams in the NBA, with a record comparable to the Lakers. If the expectations for LeBron are: give him talent and he's supposed to win 70+ games... well, you obviously think he's the best player in NBA history (or at least better than Kobe, who has never sniffed that mark despite having stacked rosters his whole career).
