    I was watching the Lebron cam tonight...and one thing I noticed is that Lebron does a lot of standing around watching the play and conserving energy. Sometimes he jobs back on D even!

    You can see this by watching the Lebron cam on NBA Live:
    http://www.tnt.tv/sports/nba/playoffs09_live_yahoo/

    Now I wonder this, everyone calls t-mac "Mc-Lazy" for doing this, so does this mean L-bro is also lazy?

    Or is it that we are being a bit hard on our superstar here?

    My point exactly - why is it that L-bro gets to conserve energy - but T-mac isn't allowed that?

    Lebron comes out at 5:30 before the arena lights are even on to work on his game hours before the game according to TNT

    He produces 40% of crunch time production for his team (only after Jerry West and I think Kareem for a series in history).

    It's crazy to ask if he's lazy. Do you watch the games? Every play in the 4th quarter is him going to the rack HARD and finishing with contact. Where on earth does this "lazy" question come from?

    NM comparing the man to Tmac, Lebron works harder than Yao on his game and has had similar responsibilities in the Summer the past year... what's the opposite of lazy? That's what Lebron is

    T-mac doesn't do too much. He just doesn't do much.

    before this year, his usage rating every year as a rocket has been 30+. that's doing way too much.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. What are you kidding me? The only comparison is to show what polar opposites they are of each other.

    You think he works hard because he hogs the ball like AI and skips the early morning workouts.. Lebron works hard, because he is the first one on the court working out. Yao works hard, because he is the first one in the gym, too. Other players say it, and the coaches say it.

    Although, there is absolutely no comparison between the two, they do have a similar game. Both guys are somewhat "Point Forwards" in which they dominate the ball and create plays.

    This thread is pure fail.

    We'll talk when either

    A) Tracy gets past the first round
    B) LeBron shoots exclusively not-quite-threes

    Why didn't Orlando (let by Tracy) go to the 2nd round then?

    better than the cavs which lose spur in 0:4...

    Because it's meant to say that if L-bro coasts at time - he's saving energy, but T-mac does it and he's lazy. This was meant to show how calling T-mac lazy is ridiculous to a degree.

    Unfortunately, it was a poorly articulated thought.

    Because T-Mac has another offensive player by the name of Yao Ming by his side. What does LeBron have? A bag of potato chips? :confused:

    The Magic and Rockets are both significantly better without Tmac.

    Look at the results, -taking the Lakers to game 7, and Orlando 1 game away from the Finals.

    FACT- Tmac NEVER did any of this for EITHER TEAM.

    Even the holy Tmac in Orlando.. Basically a false prophet like David Koresh.

    And comparing Lebron to Tmac?

    Lebron is an MVP who's taken his team to the Finals ALREADY.

    I would love to see Tracy take a charge from Lebron like Shane does.

    Tracy would shatter like glass.

    Right, so it's ok for L-bro to be lazy because he doesn't have Yao. Got it.
