Before game 7, before you judge Lebron, take a look at this chart

[fpliii]

LeBron is obviously playing well, but he and Spo need to make a concerted effort to get Wade/Bosh the ball earlier and more often to create shots for themselves/plays for others.

[OldSchoolBBall]

Lebron is averaging 14 more points than the second highest scorer on the Heat, the "superstar" Wade.

Jordan averaged 14-16 more ppg than "superstar" Pippen in the '92, '93, '96, and '98 postseasons. See how silly you sound?

[BoutPractice]

What's silly is comparing Wade's current performance to Scottie Pippen's.

Wade is supposed to be a scorer, and he's not scoring. He's not doing much else either.

So are we supposed to excuse LeBron for putting up empty stats?

[cos88]

pretty sure he won't disappear and choke like kobe in game 7 vs phx. he's waaaay better than that.

That's right. He'd rather disappear against the Celtics in 2010 & choke in the Finals twice (2007 & 2011). Kobe wouldn't choke in the Finals. He's waaaaay better than that.




I hate feeding a troll, but this guy probably just started watching basketball this year. May as well straighten him out.

This chart shows me one thing. Fault on the coach.

what empty stats...he's the only one producing on the team consistently. you all can try and paint Lebron wrong here, but reality is Lebron is the only reason this series is still going...he's shouldering the Heat in almost every aspect and if it wasn't for him, the Heat would've gone fishing after the Bulls series.

I love how ripthekik and his compadres tried to persuade the boards into believing Miami was this huge jauggernaut, even if James were missing...you clearly see that's not the case.

[Golderado]

No reason whatsoever for bosh to produce 3.* reb a game, even if he's out of place on offense which he shouldn't always be, he should be pounding it on defense to atleast double that number...

Of those with decent minutes played, only Cole got less total off rebounds than bosh by a total of 1... in 70 minutes less played -_-

[cos88]

Kobe wouldn't choke in the Finals. He's waaaaay better than that.

2004, 39% fg on one of the most stacked teams in the history of sports vs an underdog. choke after choke after choke.

last year vs okc and this whole year, 8 seed with another stacked team etc.

he likes to choke for full seasons. . put lebron on 13 lakers and do you thing they'll finish 8th ?

[IncarceratedBob]

Why isn't LeBron playing more minutes??

You're the star, kid

In 2004 he was still Shaqs sidekick remember

You can't choke as a 2nd option.

[TheOne]

What's the point of discussing Lebron's states now? Real champion will step up and win in Game 7. Let's see if they can do it tomorrow.

[RossTalksSports]

What's silly is comparing Wade's current performance to Scottie Pippen's.

Wade is supposed to be a scorer, and he's not scoring. He's not doing much else either.

I'll preface this by saying that Wade is not having a good series.

Wade is averaging 4.5 rebounds per game which is 3rd to LBJ and Birdman

4.8 assist per game which is 2nd to LeBron with less usage. plus 1.3 stls and 1.5 blocks per game. Looking at the free throw attempts you can see even thogh he isn't scoring well he's drawing a relatively high number of fouls on Ind because they idiotically go for that pump fake. He's contributing decently well in categories other than points.

[Blue&Orange]

Let me guess, you're trying to say that Lebron stayed on him all half, right? People should know by now that Lebron guards different players all game long, we're not all retarded enough to believe your BS.

People should know... flawless argument.
