"Lebron is mentally weak, not clutch"... really?

[Rocker09]

Lebron needs to ignore his FG% in close game situations. He can't be afraid to miss the big shots becaus his team is expecting for him to take those shots...A great closer is someone who's not afraid to fail. A great closer may miss 10 shots in a row but when the game is on the line or when his team is trailing, he's still gonna be the one who's going to take the important shots...

[Oositdwn]

Kobe in the fourth quarter tonight: 6 points on 2/3 shooting

Lebron in the fourth quarter tonight: 5 points on 1/4 shooting

You're missing the point, Lebron and Kobe have different standards. With Kobe he doesn't shy away from the moment hence why he can have numbers like that and people aren't bothered cos you know he has that winners mentality all the time. Lebron on the other hand has been scared since finals so it's quite surprising when he finally hits a significant shot.

Why is that it's always the Kobrick fa99ot brigade raiding LeBron threads? Same names in every thread.

Let LeGod cook. His championship ring is coming. Ya'll know it..

We are asking a player who's game was 75% built on dominant slashing even as recently as 2010 to play a completely skill-oriented game with the pressure at its peak. Is it any surprise he has confidence issues?

Can't people see LeBron has nothing to offer against a set defense beyond mid-range jumpers? It's sort of amazing he's still somehow managed to be as productive as he's been the last 2 seasons.

Dude you are probably the most infuriating poster on this board, i would rather hear 10000 kobe stans opinions before yours, I swear you are bi-polar and you just need to stfu.

Bron had 12 or 14 point in the paint tonight and is shooting 40 percent from long range for the season... as well as shooting great from mid range.

Im at a loss at what you want from him? Statistically and defensively one of his finest seasons including top notch PER, so what if he doesnt slash as much and dunk over everybody anymore a la blake griffin, it is what it is and hes still the best player in the nba.

The reason why he has struggled in the last two seasons except for the playoffs last year in the clutch is because he knows its not just him now, his confidence is killed by the fact that wade and bosh are right next to him and everybody is gonna be mad if he throws up a rubbish shot with dwade and bosh on the team.... it has absolutely nothing to do with athleticism or skill level.

A few years ago everybody said he needs to be in the post he needs to shoot jumpers, now that he does that, ignorant fools like you are saying hes lost his athleticism bla bla bla. He wants longevity = layup 2 points, gigantic dunk 2 points.

Either like him or hate him dont be a bi-polar freak about it.

None of those were self-created baskets. They either came off off-ball cuts or offensive rebounds. Nobody's allowing that at the end of games.

Little confused wit the "bi-polar" accusations lately. I've been saying the same ****ing thing for 2 seasons now.

You said previously that he had nothing to offer in the half court other than a mid range game then I say he got scores in the paint. You refute by saying they were off cuts and such. So that means he's slashing and playing well off the ball yeah?
Which is the exact thing you were complaining that he couldn't do before. and I'm fairly sure you don't have to play ISO ball to win at the end of games.

Then you sit back and wonder why people are asking what is up with your idiotic self..

im shocked to see even ONE human being on earth say Lebron has NOT SHOWN MENTAL TOUGHNESS / CLUTCHNESS..... after all Lebron has done.... yet i see a couple actully say that here on ISH! haha... alrighty then......

so yea... enough is enough... its time to remind these haters of the facts they desperately try to avoid.... lets go:

1st of all, since 2003, Lebron has accumulated the most gamewinners...

Game Winning Shot Opportunity = 24 seconds or less left in the game, team with the ball is either tied or down by 1 to 2 points.



2nd of all, Lebron has been at the top in Clutch stats since these Clutch stats were first started to be recorded...

"For these stats "Clutch" is defined as:

4th quarter or overtime, less than 5 minutes left, neither team ahead by more than 5 points"

and so on................................................ ...................


SO... BEFORE YOU HAVE THE COJONES TO ACTUALLY QUESTION LEBRONS MENTAL TOUGHNESS / CLUTCHNESS AGAIN......... REMEMBER... BY FACTS, YOU ARE ACTUALLY QUESTIONING THE MOST OVERALL PRODUCTIVE CLUTCH PLAYER IN THE NBA........... HE DOESNT JUST SCORE, HE REBOUNDS, PASSES AND GETS KEY DEFENSIVE STOPS IN THE CLUTCH AS YOU CAN SEE ABOVE.....

LEBRON IS HUMAN.... SO HE WILL FAIL IN THE CLUTCH.... BUT AS YOU CAN SEE UPSTAIRS... HE OVERALL PREVAILS ON THAT END MORE THAN ANYBODY..... SEASON OR PLAYOFFS.....

YES HE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE OVERALL A SUPERHERO AGAINST THE MAVS IN THE PLAYOFFS IN 3 GAMES...... BUT THAT DOES NOT CHANGE THE FACTS OF LEBRON BEING THE MOST CLUTCH PLAYER.... NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU WISH FOR IT....
