Sigh...this aint a Lebron roast thread, nor am i analyzing ? from a psycholgical standpoint

From a strictly basketball POV, im gettin tired of seein this ngga in 1-4 sets, barreling to the hole and either 1) gettin bailed out by refs, 2)missin a contested layup, or 3)gettin called for an offensive foul

7 years of this ? !!!

I consider myself a fan of Bron, but cot dam. Pull-up jumper or get in the post.

    Do you watch them play? Wade aint no better either. They rely heavily on gettin calls vs mid-range J...

    As opposed to Durant, Melo, Kobe who WANT to get enough space to raise up and shoot

    So you pat yourself on the back for noting a rookie not being clutch his rookie year? okay..

    But actually, LeBron is pretty clutch. He's missed way more game winners than he has made, but so has Kobe.

    ^^^These stats date back to two seasons ago, but it shows that Bronny has actually made the most game winning shots in the 5 year period they recorded these.

    I was surprised that he took it to be honest.. at one point in the game he passed it to bosh.. it was liek a few minutes left and Chris Bosh passed it back to him as if to say.. you aint puttin this ? on me.. These ? treat me like a kicker..

    Hel'll take the shot vs Goldenstate.. Indiana but when it gets real.. he doesnt want it,, I think he shot htat ? because of the hype surrounding the game of the knicks... they aint no Boston.

    If he had a midrange game Amare would have been a factor.. and I also gotta give Melo some credit for making it possible for Amare to come over and block that attempt

    While Wade is not great at midrange either he takes shots with confidence.. id rather put the ball in wades hands hes a lil more fluid

    Arenas,melo,kobe,wade are clutch and not one of them are overall better players dont see how this matters

    Just more nitpickin and overanalyzing.Pippen wasnt clutch at all he's one of the worst players in nba history as far as performing when the games on the line

    Dont see people holdin that against him.Wit lebron it gets magnified like this was game 6 they just lost

    Exactly. Kevin Durant just missed a game tying shot earlier that day, but nobody's getting all over him. People just hate LeBron and when ever he does something wrong people pounce at the opportunity.

    Gotta agree here. The knicks put some hellatious D on the Heat last night. They flat out wanted it more.

    Pippen wasnt Lebron, sometimes with the glory you have to get the ............HEAT

    Its a collection based on observation not on a sportscenter highlight .. one game.. or a book of stats..


    Its not about the success rate its about be afraid to fail

    Lebron is the best player in the league, when he not missing game winners he passing them away. He not a clutch player, it might just be nerves getting the best of him

    KD took a game tying three with less than 5 on the clock....9 times out of 10, you're not making that shot

    1 on 1.. thats pretty ideal situation to be in in a clutch situation. in the middle of the court

    he should have crossed over.. stepped back and game would have been over.. Amare would be standing on his two feet

    I said I been sayin Lebron isnt clutch SINCE his rookie year, not ONLY for his rookie year. He wasnt clutch then, that year, the year after that, the year after that.

    ? those stats, not everything looks right when you look at the stats, sometimes you actually have to watch basketball...to make any kind of reference to Kobe's clutch ability when talkin about Lebron is ridiculous.

    Clutch situations arent suppose to be ice cream and cake... thats after the game.

    fourth quarter the defense was great.. most of the game i wouldnt say so.. Knick and Hellacious defense.. ........ this aint the 90's Melo showed up in that 4th quarter though

    When you're the best player in the NBA, call yourself "King James" and the "Chosen One", make 1 hour specials for where you're gonna sign in free agency, and take ridiculous shots at the end of games (even though he finally did attack the rim the possession before he took that 3) then you open yourself up for criticism and you will be nitpicked.
