How did history repeat itself when he had 30 points? Are you stupid?

[The Iron Fist]

"OK LeBron, for starters we're going to need you to run an offense where you have all of one player, maybe two depending on how Mario Chalmers is feeling, who can create their own shot. That one player though, there's no telling what you're going to get from him half to half so you're going to have to score 30 points every night. But you also need to facilitate and spread the ball around enough so you can get your teammates going. Defensively, you're going to guard all five positions and everybody on that team from Rondo to Pierce and Garnett. And since Bosh is out, we're going to need you to protect the glass as well. You're also playing 45 minutes a night, so don't get tired."

I just wonder who else in the NBA (present or past, although I'm sure there's at least a couple names) could take on the responsibility LeBron's been tasked with and fulfill so many roles and excel to the level he has, while covering up so many of his team's flaws just so Miami can be competitive since Bosh went down?

Eh, we're fans. It's in our DNA to bitch, moan and undermine greatness.

DPoTY is good at getting clutch shots hit in his face

Rudy Gay does it:

BEST DEFENDER IN THE NBA

[Clutch]

Who said anything about his points ?

Terry hit a clutch three in his face in game 5,yesterday Pierce hit a clutch three in his face in game 5. Both for 3-2 series lead and both coming against veteran teams.
That's the similarity.

I simply cannot imagine a scenario where Bosh could have played in the second half but they chose not to put him in because they didn't want him to play too many minutes.

Bosh in his post-game interview said he can definitely give more. That seemed like a direct shout out to 'Spo for not playing him in the 4th.

[Indian guy]

I still don't understand why Cavs fans hate LeBron so much.

Butt-hurt over the fact that LeBron was so RIGHT to leave them - he was carrying 20-win casts to 60+ wins there. It's that fact that bothers them so much. They have no defense for that. Cleveland was exposed as an utter joke last season. Nobody could question LeBron's decision after that. His execution, sure, but not his decision.

@ them now hating on Miami's likely ECF exit. Call me when a team wins a championship without their 3rd best player.

Lebron was once again too willing to give the ball up and stand in the corner. What happened to moving without the ball or taking some initiative? You're the damn MVP!! The so-called best player in the game. Play like it!!

Everybody keeps blaming Spo, but this lies on the players more than anything and it's mostly because of this.

They simply don't know how to play basketball.

It's like they run what Spo wanted them to run once, and then they just go back to playing pick up ball. Bron's unwillingness to play a mid range/post up game drives me bat shit insane, Wade's heaves at the basket drive me f*Ckin wild, but more than anything their stand in a f*ckin spot no cutting is an embarrassment to the game.

That question should be directed at yourself.

[TheJuice31]

You can not be serious right now.

I was hoping you'd elaborate.

Kobe.

Drawing a blank here. Was this during the post-Shaq/pre-Pau Dark Ages where Kobe didn't have an elite frontcourt and went one-and-done or missed the postseason each year?

You clearly know nothing about the game of basketball.

[jrong]

The 11/25 isn't the problem. That it came after a 7/9 start is. Do the math. That's 4/16 to finish.

It was during the back to back when he was the teams best scorer, defender, passer and team leader.
