    Lebron had at least two air balls in the 4th.

    Yeah he hit a huge three, after bricking the **** outta one then rely on his team mate to get an offensive rebounds and then feed him another open three.

    The entire Heat team carried his ass today

    he only got hot in the fourth because Chalmers of all people fed him two open dunks

    So he didnt turn it over at end of game when it mattered at least 3 times that I can think of?

    We didn't all just see that? right?

    I mean lets all erase that since we are all being ridiculous.

    Lebron is good but he is not clutch and he is definitely not legend. Tonight sealed that fate.

    As much as I hated the celtics and even still do.. bird was clutch. As much as I hated magic. clutch. same for jordan. clutch. lebron - really good but a choker that got saved by a role player in ray allen. there is no 2 ways about it.

    That's not ridiculous it's just fact.

    LEGACY SEALED

    You know these guys hold LeBron to GOAT standards when he can have another 30pt triple-double and lead a double-digit comeback in the 4th quarter and still be considered a choker.

    Dude has the biggest weapon in the entire NBA: taking the ball to the rim.

    All the shots were layups, nobody can stop him if he drives close the the paint.

    But this guy still:

    1. Defers too much to Wade. Only try when it is desperate.

    2. Has no jumper whatsoever, can't hit an outside shot to save his live. Even he doesn't trust his jumpers sometimes.

    3. Made many bad decisions down the stretch and had a lot of TOs. He carried his team in the 4th and his teammates saved him in the end.

    Best player in the NBA? Yes. Best of all time? No way.

    He hit a pretty big outside shot in the last minute to give the Heat a chance, but let's just chalk that up to luck to fit the agenda.

    I will say it was a pretty lucky shot because all other jumpers were either air balls or just accurate enough to hit the rim.

    OMG he had maybe one airball and missed a few chippies. He was the entire offense in the 4th quarter either hitting shots or setting people up. How you guys can't see this is really beyond me. Is your hate for the guy that strong?

    Ray freaking Allen saved Lebron from a disastrous offseason...Lebron single handedly almost cost them this season...and Bosh and Allen saved them...

    when it COUNTED he turned it over.

    ...and then he turned it over again.

    then he had ray allen bail him out.

    His response in overtime.

    yeah another turnover.

    I think he even turned it over again after that. He was going for a quadruple double in the end of game of turnovers. IN THE FINALS.

    how is that clutch or the greatest? Lebron is lucky if he was even top 5 of this generation.

    I dont know about you but I dont remember seeing clips of jordan ending the game with a turnover after turnover as a highlight reel? do you?

    I dont remember magic to end the game with a nice run of turn overs.

    I mean has anyone is the history of the finals singlehandedly turned it over that many times when it counted?

    Lucky for him ray allen has give him the window of opportunity to redeem himself one last time.

    If the Heat had lost in regulation on the heels of two classic choke jobs by LeBron in the final minute, nobody would care or talk about what he did earlier in the quarter.

    1/3 of the story would have been Spurs win the title. 2/3 would have been LeBron choked.

    Ray Allen saved LeBron.

    So when the Heat were all but done to start the 4th, are we just going to forget about LeBron scoring or assisting on every play while locking down TP on the other end? I guess that doesn't count as pressure because it was over a minute left?
