2007 was not a choke. He was young and had no supporting cast

I give Lebron a pass on the 2007 Finals. He was young and inexperienced and faced a much, much better team in the Spurs.
2011 though, was absolutely terrible. And then we can put the choke job against the Celtics in 10 in as well. That was very disappointing.
2013 Finals almost topped them all though. If the Spurs had won game 6 his legacy would have been tainted forever. Not by the fact that they would have lost (although this would be bad as well), but how his mental insecurities kept messing with him, even in his 10th season.

Lebron actually improved his game after game 3 of the 2013 NBA Finals. He was by far the best player in that series.

Unbelievable
You want to talk about game 5?
HE SHOT 36% !!!!!!
And yes, he statpadded shamelessly in game 4, the game that Dwayne Wade was dominating.
Pathetic.

Wade did >> Lebron that game, but Lebron had ~25 points, 10 boards and 4 assists before he began his "stat padding". 25/10/4 is definitely not a bad game.

But he was not the best player on the floor.
He was basically the best for the last 5 qtr of the finals.
And four of those came because of Ray.

He still was good and he didn't play the way he did, Miami would've lost game 4.
Also, I don't remember Allen going 7-10 for 16 points in the 4th to keep Miami in the game.
