"So if I have to guard him," Jordan told ESPN's Wright Thompson, "I'm gonna push him left so nine times out of 10, he's gonna shoot a jump shot. If he goes right, he's going to the hole and I can't stop him. So I ain't letting him go right."

That reached James' ears and, simply, he doesn't agree. Within days of the story coming out, James won a game by driving to his left and getting to the rim with 3.2 seconds left to beat the Orlando Magic for what then was then the Miami Heat's 16th consecutive victory.

James did it again Wednesday night, when he drove left as Indiana Pacers guard Paul George seemed to follow the Jordan scouting report to defend James from going right. This time, James got to the rim just ahead of the buzzer to deliver the game-winner with his left hand and put the Heat up 1-0 in the Eastern Conference finals.

"That theory is wrong, I guess," James said of the Jordan report.

I wonder what type of strategy Jordan used when he allowed them to murder his father, tbh..

Looking at the Bobcats, Michael Jordan should not be scouting anyone

jordan is as bad a scout as he is a manager/coach imho. to prevent Lebron from going right, Jordan goes "wrong" himself 9 times out of 10

Jordan was 6 for 6. Lecrab is 1 for 3. That pretty much ends the debate.

MJ's scouting record is subpar to say the least.

If you saw MJ's HOF speech, sensitive is apathetic compared to him.

As much as I think Lebron is somewhat over sensitive, if he says "man I'm not answering that" everyone would still be saying how sensitive he is and how the Jordan quote really bothered him. Its a lose lose situation.

lol that had nothing to do with going right or left. Between Paul's D and Vogel's decisions, Pacers just basically said "here have a free basket" lol

Right.

I cant comment on that Orlando game winning bucket but the one he made against the Pacers the other night couldn't have come easier.

My boy Danny Green who cannot make a wide open layup 3 out 5 times could have easily pull that one off.

Its hard to miss layups in this league, even harder to miss layups when you're by your lonesome.

Lebron is on his way but he's trying too hard show up anyone that is critical about him.

Guy needs to just chill.
