    Honestly, Lebron fans will always be Lebron fans.

    Lebron haters will be lebron haters unless the dude is on your team.

    We seriously need to stop this. The dead horse literally has no more skin, bones, organs to kick.

    Hate him. Like Him. Who cares? JUST STOP MAKING THREADS ABOUT HIM

    Where are you getting this from?

    He hasn't exhibited any cockiness, in recent memory.

    Did the "Decision." Made fun of Dirk. That's all I can remember from the time he became a pro NBA player.

    You seriously do not remember just last night Wade kept the Heat in the game in the 2nd half when LeBron was disappearing?

    Oh my, you are the only one in the world arguing LeBron has no help when he has one of the top 5 players bailing him out when he's not playing up to par.

    Disappearing? The guy put up 9 points in the 4th.

    My point is Wade isn't the Wade that is supposed to be a top 5 player. He's not even a top 3 player in this series (Lebron/Rondo/KG have been better). Coming into this series, the Heat are supposed to have the 2 best players in the series.

    Even Heat radio is BLASTING Dwayne Wade on a daily basis. Dan Le Betard even wrote a column PLEADING Wade to show up in the Pacers series. Miami radio is already talking about potential trades for Dwayne Wade.

    Bailing him out? You're delusional.

    I got to agree that Wade hasn't been vintage Wade. He has been missing open looks, but he put in 27. Honestly, Lebron put in 30 so I do not see how you can hate on him.

    What if Lebron cruised through the first three quarters and turned up in the 4th....Heat still lose and Lebron gets crucified saying he is lazy. Honestly, people have opinions. People hate him because of his arrogance and personality. People just like to use his few basketball flaws (Yes, you say he isn't clutch but he is....scoring last 25 pts against Detroit, Scoring last 12 points by himself against some team I can't remember this season)

    I just want to point out the being clutch doesn't mean your team wins or you hit the buzzer beater. I would take a player working hard all game and still give you 30 a night rather than a player who is clutch and doesn't do everything Lebron gives me.

    Ex. I take Lebron now than Kobe now any day...but that is my opinion

    Lebron is a great player but doesn't have that clutch gene. In Cleveland it seemed like he might have it but for whatever reason he's become less clutch in Miami. Getting annihilated by the Mavs last year might've been the beginning of the end for the big 3. As great as the big 3 are the Heat don't seem to have the heart to gut out a championship.

    Not in particular. What would make you think that, lumpy?

    That's not true. Rockets were only favored to win the series once in 06. And it's No.4 seed against No.5 seed.

    Dirk blew 2 series in 06 and 07. That's only 2 and he redeemed himself already. Plus, he got 1, not 3 MVPs.

    KG had HCA once in his early years, I think it's 2003 against Lakers. And I doubt they're really the favorite to win that one.

    No, he quit in last years' finals. And he quit in the Bostons series the year before. I gave him a pass for 2009 Magic series.

    As much as Lebron chokes, gags, and loses, he's never been on a team that has been up 3-1 in series and choked away the series. He's only been swept, once in his career and it was in the NBA Finals.

    Well, he was up 2-1 against Boston and Mavs and lost 3 straight, in both series they're the favorite with HCA. Kobe had to drain two buzzer beaters to go 3-1, then they lost 3 straight against a better team with HCA. How did it make LeBron look any better?
