Do people still consider Lebron the best player in the game?

[ginobli2311]

lol @ the regular season means nothing

1st and 2nd round done mean anything either lol

what does it really matter for the heat? they need to get into the playoffs as a top 4 seed in the east with health.

its just not that important....thats just the truth.

did people honestly think they would win 70? seriously? i just find it so hard to believe.

i swear people don't actually watch games or look at rosters. the heat are clearly worse than both the lakers and celtics on paper. and even further behind after you watch the teams play.

the regular season is about finding out what your team does well and what it does poorly....ask the celtics how important the regular season was last year.

Based on what?

His team is in the middle of the pack and its a stacked team.

Is it his fault his team isn't doing that great?

[DeronMillsap]

As far as Regular season? Yes.

Not this season. In past seasons, yeah he was the best regular season player.

[Indian guy]

If not him, then who? He's off to this 'slow' start and is still putting up better numbers than his only 2 rivals - Kobe and Wade.

As far as Miami's record is concerned, it's somewhat misleading right now. It's incredibly rare for a team to lose every close game they play, yet that's what's happened to them so far. A bounce here and a basket there and they could easily be 11-2. Their play(top 3 on both ends of the court) doesn't really reflect in their record, but things will eventually even out for them.

He was the best player in the league in 2009 and 2010, Kobe was the best from '06-'08, I'll wait until it's deeper into the season before judging who the best player in the league is.

Are you honestly expecting me to answer a question you clearly know the answer too? If you can't look at me and tell me this Miami Heat team isn't better then Cleveland Cavaliers, than I'm sorry, I won't explain. LeBron clearly isn't the number 1 option in Miami, and he was by far in Cleveland. It's 1A 1B here in Miami.



.

Actually, I don't know the answer. All I've heard since the summer is how the Heats are going to steamroll the league on the way to a title because they now had Lebron and Wade and Bosh and Miller.

All we've seen though, is a replay of Cleveland, just with bigger names.

So again,

what gives and why does that make him the best player today?

[DeronMillsap]

Is it his fault his team isn't doing that great?

Here we go again.... It's never LeBron's fault!!!!!

[Rowe]

BS after BS after BS

He is on a stacked team with the worst record u can imagine with this team Hmmmmmmmmmmm I wonder why ??? AND They have 2 BEST PLAYER IN THE NBA HMmmmmmmmm something is wrong here ...

They're 8-5 and only 13 games in. Seriously shut the **** up.

the problem with this assertion is that their rebounding has been so bad its negating the great defense they are playing. things will not even out until their rebounding in crucial spots get better.....

after losing haslem now for a while....i can only get worse....they are going to lose tight games all year unless that changes.

[The Iron Fist]

what gives? the regular season gives. we all know that no matter what happens in the regular season....if the heat are healthy.....they have a much better team to win in the playoffs than the cavs.

at least the heat have a shot if they play great. the cavs had no shot....that is what gives.

the regular season means nothing unless the heat somehow don't get a top 4 seed in the east.

Dang, I could have swore I heard that last year,

"If the Cavs are healthy, they have a much better chance to win in the playoffs than the Magics and the Celtics."


I guess the more things change, the more they stay the same?

[Kurosawa0]

No one else I'd rather have.

Oh, they had a shot....If their star players shows up in game 2 and 5, they def would have had a shot.

It's never LeBron's fault is another theme that keeps repeating itself.

[Indian guy]

Hmm. . .that is true. All of their closes losses so far have been characterized by their opponent getting crucial offensive rebounds late.

[Cangri]

Here we go again.... It's never LeBron's fault!!!!!

Most of the games they've lost was because the opposing teams were dominating their front court, now tell me how it's his fault? He actually have been playing good for most of those games.
