    this means only one thing - LeBron is not clutch.

    Didn't watch the game, but this whole LeChoke thing is pretty overplayed. Thing with Lebron is that he needs to dominate the scoring down the stretch, and do it with what he's good at- Driving/ Muscling in the lane and drawing contact, case where he should get the call every time.

    Lebron is scoring 30 ppg at a 60% clip. The guy is an absolute beast this season. Maybe those lessons with olajuwon helped.

    Man i love how every person explains every situation LeBron has gone through so well and deep. If he does take action then Wade is at fault or viceversa.
    LeBron is the best talent in the league without a doubt. Every player chokes and fails. If he was failing in Cleveland it wouldn't be that big of a deal would it?
    So the blame from the Warriors storming back is all James's fault to you guys, at least the op makes it sound that way. As long as it goes to OT then you move on and try to contribute there.

    This might be the Heat's last legit shot at a ring. Their competition is either too old (Lakers, Spurs, Celtics and Mavs) or not as battle tested in the playoffs (Chicago, OKC, Clippers). If they dont win this year I dont think they make it back to the finals next year

    It's one thing to try and fail, and another thing to choke. LeBron didn't take a shot in 4th quarter when the team was in struggle. The guy is a stat padder that cares more about his efficiency number than win. That's very selfish.

    I figure he must have missed some, but nobody remembers them.

    Last shot, no. But Wade may break down and never be the same player again with his style. He had a season-ending injury a few years ago. Another one like that could be career-ending.

    He made some clutch plays during the 2011 playoffs. He was playing great, until the finals. In this game, he disappeared, even when the Heat were up comfortably. He needs to command the ball coming down the stretch instead of trying to say this is Wade's team.

    Common that's a bit of an exaggeration. We have seen the guy chuck up ridiculous shots before. That's what i mean by everyone jumping to conclusion on him with every game. You never know what really goes on with every play.

    I gotta say Lebron's efficiency is Godly this season, wtf he's shooting at like 60% FG, pretty sick.

    The reason is....

    Before that Warriors game he scored 82% from the paint on 50/61 tries

    Now that's impressive as hell as a wing player

    I think he's still at 0 3 point made because he stopped shooting them. Lebron's is a lock for MVP if he can keep playing aggressive and smart. His post moves have improved so have his jump shots. More importantly he decided to just STFU and play the damn game. I is very impressed

    He won't go in the paint with the game on the line. Didn't he shoot that 3 with like 8 seconds left and only down 1? He's afraid of getting fouled and having to make clutch free throws.
