lol @ the excuses for LeBron shooting good. Everytime you bring up he is shooting better percentage wise than some of the so called good shooters it's because he's getting open shots. The same could be said for all the 3 pt specialist.
Says the guy who thought She Mac was going to do well after leaving the rockets. You have zero credibility.
There is a difference between thinking someone will do good and saying someone can't shoot when in fact the numbers for that season proves that theory wrong.
There's a difference b/t thinking what's going to happen, and the facts presented before you. You may want to get league pass yourself.
You are actually wrong about that. They are 17-5 v. the West, and 16-9 v. the East. The West plays more up-tempo, which plays directly into their style of play. Miami has pummeled the West this year. However, Miami struggles with great defensive teams like Chicago/Indy that slow the pace down, and minimize fast breaks. Fact: Miami has a total of EIGHT fast break points in 2 games v. Indiana.
You had since 08-09 to see he was a scrub. Maybe if you watched she Mac and could analyze basketball you could predict things better. And I'm not even here to talk about lebr
The Western Teams are turnover prone and you know that if you are turning the ball over against the Heat two points in the paint from LeBron and D-Wade are waiting to happen
This isn't about analysis or prediction. It's about facts. No need to analyze or predict anything? Is Lebron James a good shooter? The facts state he is. Nobody has to analyze anything. Now, will he be the GOAT or top 2 of all time? That requires prediction and things like that. Do you get the difference now? I hope so.
I'm not a LBJ fanboy. From an objective standpoint: LeBron is the greatest of all time. He has the most physically gifted body of any athlete I've ever seen or even heard of. In terms of a strength/speed/dexterity combination he is the best ever. He excels at everything and can score from anywhere on the court.
The guy has gone to a level that I have only seen from three players: Jordan, Dream and Barkley. Dream and Jordan spent much of their careers at that level while Barkley was there for two or three seasons. It isn't stats but more of seeing how the game looks effortless to the guy. Like things slow down for him to the point where he appears to see everything on the court at once and makes the right play so often it's scary. Hate Lebron all you want but don't deny you're seeing something incredibly rare and special.
LeBron is playing at a level almost never seen before this year but to call him the greatest of all time with only one ring is a bit ridiculous. I know rings aren't the ultimate determining factor but guys like Jordan, Magic, and Bird were great players and were also capable of carrying their teams to multiple rings which counts for a lot. Right now Lebron is 1 for 3 in the finals so he has a long way to go. One of those 2 losses was far from his fault but the second you have to put on him.
Jordan, Magic and Bird did not carry their teams to championships. They actually played in ridiculously stacked teams. Magic had James Worthy and the only guy with a truly unstoppable shot in the history of the game. Jordan had Pippen, Kerr, Grant, Kukoc, Ron Harper and Dennis Rodman at different points in his 6 championships runs. Bird played in the 1986 Celtics team, the GOAT stacked team with Walton, Parish, Ainge, DJ and our very own Mc Hale. People tend to get nostalgic and teary-eyed inventing memories of past all-time greats carrying their teams to multiple championships.
He's played 22 games against the West and 25 against the East this season. And the numbers are pretty similar against both, according to the splits. Plus, the Heat actually have a better record against the West (17-5).
OH man. And in his last for games he's averaging 30 points per game and shooting 73% from the field !!!!!!! But, he has a bad jump shot. Against the bobcats, lebron went for 30, 8 reb and 8 assists and shot 90% from the field! Only wilt has done that and wilt wasn't shooting any jumpers. LeBron is the GOAT.
