LeBron hits the practice court for

[pauk]

i dont get why lebron went to practice...he played fine, should have made bosh and wade go practice

This comment i think explains it the best:

The very best players in the world are always trying to get better. Never satisfied with where they are at. This is why guys like Kobe (who gets in a workout as early as 5am before practices) and Lebron continue to get better and why other guys who are bless with talent never leave their mark on the league.

Hard work beats Talent when Talent does not work Hard Enough…

It works like leading by example aswell, sending a message to his teammates.... especially when it is done directly after such a game where only Lebron himself was playing the hardest/to his ability and the rest was just traffic cones....

Bean taught him well

to lead and show his team that they still need to be better.

Its not just Kobe though and it certainly didnt start there, but Kobe sure is an excellent example indeed

I dont understand some fans.Of course he is imitating kobe just like kobe imitated the older generation.Game is evolving thats what you supposed to do.

I see no problem with that.I know some fans are too delusional to understand that but lebron and kobe are both legends every legend learned from each other.

Wade and bosh should of been there not lebron.

it's kind of an underhanded way of saying to his teammates:

i'm doing extended practice even tho i played great. wtf about you?

[Blue&Orange]

Kobe, Lebron, called it "working on their game", i call it attention whores with bruised egos.

Sounds like some stupid publicity stunt. He played fantastic, no need to put unnecessary stress on your body after a productive and intense output. His team-mates should be the ones putting in work, and I understand sending a message and all, but he should've went with a different approach.

But, at least there was an approach. Heat fans should hope it delivers.

[Bandito]

[QUOTE=pauk]There is nothing he could have done better except been to the future and seen what his teammates would have played/shot like and how the Knicks would have played/shot like... hence preparing himself to go for 50+ FG attempts himself or something to try and win the game himself...

But it sure sends a message to his teammates: [I]

[Batz]

But why when Kobe does it he's trying to get a good public image then?

He had a shitty game when he did it.

[Kiddlovesnets]

Well Lebron isnt the problem for the Heat, this aint likely to help much.

[TheBigVeto]

Copying Kobe big time.... I guess hes trying to learn from a true student of the game.

[miller-time]

Well Lebron isnt the problem for the Heat, this aint likely to help much.

Because he is sending a message to his team mates. It is called leading.

[Sarcastic]

Wade has more important things to do.

Like sex parties.
