LeBron is a JOKE

[Chr!s Childs]

forget what I said. :depressed

[Tobias]

Donyell Marshall is a scrub??

I agree that Lebrob shoulda taken it to the hole and woulda got the foul if he did, but Donyell aint exactly a crummy shooter.

[CubanMustGo]

LeBron has a bad case of Dirkitis.

[ducks]

ducks loves it

[bdictjames]

Donyell holds the record for most three-pointers in a game.

Marshall >>>>> Childs

[Rosie O'Donnell]

The final play of the 4th quarter is proof why. He drove to the rim and PASSED the ball, to a scrub who's shot never had a chance. In that situation, Kobe doesn't pass. Wade doesn't pass. Duncan doesn't pass. LeBron is a soul-less media machine of empty highlight reels and dunks that will be swallowed up by history along with his career of zero rings.
Don't even know the players names so STFU

[flipcritic]

Give me a break. I don't like Lebron any more than anyone else in here. But I saw the game and Marshall was wide open. Detroit's defense was set up to stop Lebron on almost every play (they pretty much threw 3 guys at him whenever they could).

This is another case of the media magnifying the negatives as much as possible (just like the Horry-Nash debacle), making a catastrophe out of little details.

He had an easy dunk too. He might have gotten an AND1.

I don't think anyone expected him to pass since he had a clear path.

Not only that play, but in many clutch moments Lebron either sucks or defers to teammates when he should not.

[TheSanityAnnex]

And if Marshall hits that shot, LeBrons a hero.

[trueD]

About 12 seconds to go, Cav's were out of TO's and needed a three to win. They went for it.

[SRJ]

Yeah, finding the open man is a big waste of time in basketball.

In game five of the 2005 Finals, Ginobili should have jacked up a three from the corner with two guys draped all over him. Instead, he passed to a wide-open teammate - because Manu Ginobili is a JOKE.

Or, more to the point, Chris Childs is a JACKASS.

[mavsfan1000]

Marshall is known for his 3 point shooting. I'd say Lebron made the right choice and it could've allowed them to steal game 1. Detroit>>>Cleveland though.

[J.T.]

LBJ is about eight good teammates away from winning a ring. I could actually go my entire life without seeing him win a championship and be completely happy.

[himat]

He made the right play. When you are doubled someone is wide open. Donyell was wide open, he just missed the shot. The play was great, but the execution was not.

Lebron had an opening for a layup/dunk. Actually he could have dunked that shit easily. Why would he pass it up? That was going to guarantee overtime.

[Soul_Patch]

Detroit played like ass last night and still won.


Cleveland is in for a 4 and out imho.

Yep.....Bron should have dunked it.

[trueD]

Lebron had an opening for a layup/dunk. Actually he could have dunked that shit easily. Why would he pass it up? That was going to guarantee overtime.
Cav's were out of TO's, at a disadvantage being at Detroit for an O.T., and Bron ran the play that was diagramed TO STEAL THE GAME.

Was anyone else actually watching?

:rolleyes

[Sec24Row7]

Lebron can't win...

If he forces up shots against the Piston's triple teams... he is a ballhog and gets it from Mike Brown...

If he passes the TNT crew says he is choking...

The Pistons are the better team anyway... it should be no suprise that they lost...

[ducks]

About 12 seconds to go, Cav's were out of TO's and needed a three to win. They went for it.
should have went for the dunk
maybe and one because he is the james he might have got the whistle to
or if not foul immediatle and go for the three next time

[ATRAIN]

the pressure is finally getting to him

[nkdlunch]

I agree lebronze is an american Dirk. He had a wide open layup but instead passed it to a guy that just came off the bench. :idiot

[mabber]

I agree, plus the refs were allowing the Pistons to make a lot of contact with LeBron (w/o calling fouls). LeBron made the correct play.

Whether or not you agree with it, its the right move. Sheed was heading over and Rip was in the area as well. Thats a triple team and you still believe that hes supposed to try a bank shot falling to his left rather than pass to a wide open teammate?

Didn't Jordan pass to Kerr to win a game in the finals? What about when Paxson hit the game winner against Phoenix in 93? Who brought the ball up the court on that possession then gave it up?

Fact is, if Marshall hits that we are all applauding how great a distributor LeBron is and how unselfish and trusting in his teammates he is even with the game on the line.

It was the right play, they just missed the shot. You always go for the tie at home and the win on the road.

[peskypesky]

LeBron will get skewered either way. If he doesn't pass the ball, he's called a "ball-hog", and if he passes the ball he's accused of not being "clutch".

That being said, if I'm a coach of team and we're down two at the end of the game, we DO NOT go for a 3. We go for a high percentage shot and/or free throws by driving it to the hoop. Even the best 3-pt shooters are far under 50%, so going for a three is just asking for a loss in my opinion.

[NBA Junkie]

And if Marshall hits that shot, LeBrons a hero.

Word!

[peskypesky]

You always go for the tie at home and the win on the road.

Not me. Donyell is a 35% 3-pt shooter, so if you go for a three, you're giving yourself a 2 out of 3 chance of losing a game. And when you've fought all game long to beat a team on their court, why handicap yourself like that?

[TheNextGen]

Gotta agree for once with the original poster..If you are that close to the basket, you gotta go for the 2 points....then foul and hope for a missed free throw by Detroit.

[TheNextGen]

LeBron will get skewered either way. If he doesn't pass the ball, he's called a "ball-hog", and if he passes the ball he's accused of not being "clutch".



Bullcrap...only Kobe Bryant is labeled that way. Noone has EVER called Lebron a ballhog.

You asked the right question, about the wrong shot......

Why would LeBron try a fading-to-his-left bank shot while flying towards the basline over two long defenders in front of him?

Marshall was wide open. 35% on an open shot is better than the chance LeBron had on his shot.

Also, it's a common philosophy in sports. You go for the win on the road, tie at home. This is especially so in Clevelands case. They had been struggling the entire game. Why the heck would they want to go into OT on the road after that?

[itzsoweezee]

please, enough with the excuses. they were down by 2 and lebron had a fucking layup. he's two feet from the basket and he passes out for a three??? it was a horrible decision. at worst, lebron is a pussy unwilling to make the big play. at best, he's a fucking idiot for passing up a layup.

[peskypesky]

It looked to me like it was Detroit that was struggling the whole game. Since they were LOSING at HOME.

And "why would you want to go into OT on the road"? It's better than heading to the locker room with a bitter loss.

[nkdlunch]

I agree w/this.

he had an open layup, cause he had Prince beat.

I don't understand the logic of going for the win. it's retarded.

You go for the easiest shot, the better % shot. 100% of the time.

[ducks]

James, who didn't attempt a single free throw in 45 minutes, was chided by some critics who believe a superstar should never pass up the big shot. Kobe Bryant certainly wouldn't have, and Michael Jordan did only when out of options.

"I've got a problem with the best player on the floor not taking any of these shots down the stretch," TNT analyst Charles Barkley said. "He passed it to (Zydrunas) Ilgauskas twice, he passed it to Larry Hughes and he passed it to Marshall. If I'm the best player on the court, I've got to get a shot. That's not a criticism, that's a fact."

another awesome game from that james fellow tonight

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

:lol you're relishing this.

I think Lebron's coach sucks, and doesn't know how to set up an offensive gameplan with him. Nevertheless, I think Lebron's gonna do really well in game 3.

:lol why do you cherry-pick quotes? Charles Barkley actually had some positive things to say about Lebron in today's game.

[ducks]

THE PROBLEM IS JAMES SUCKS AT FREE THROWS LATE IN THE GAMES
CAVS coach just knows plays for james and not his teamates
blaming this on cavs coach is lame
james is suppose to be all that

Heh, well tis' true.

That missed free throw reflects badly on Bron' Bron.

Wade is the more mature and prepared player for big games in the East.

yep
manu is so much clutch compared to james

duncan DOES pass, if not, he miss the 99.99% of the big shots

[KidCongo]

I agree that Lebrob shoulda taken it to the hole and woulda got the foul if he did, but Donyell aint exactly a crummy shooter.

i think it showed in game 2 LBJ won't get a foul call if he goes to the hole so he most well go for someone who ain't being mugged.

[florige]

The thing right now that most hurt Lebron's game is his jumper. Granted it is getting better, it is nowhere compared to Carmelo' and Wade'. Even though Wade can't shoot 3's too well, that corner baseline shot of his is money most of the time. Melo probably has the best jumpshot out of the three. LBJ looks like he just cocks it back and heaves it up. Melo and Wade look alot more polished when they shoot, and it shows.

You're just scared to admit it. Man up and stop being a pussy. He's a joke whether you like it or not. And if the deal is still possible, you're still going to have to follow through.

LeBron is a joke because being up 3-2 and a chance to go to the finals...someone has to take the blame. LeJoke better deliver or he will be critcized more than the choke ass mavs.

Where the hell are you even coming from? A KNICKS fan made this thread, the other threads were started by SPURS fans, and this has NOTHING to do with the Pistons and EVERYTHING to do with these idiots that tried to criticize Lebron and call him a choker and a joke and everything else. For the most part, Pistons fans respected Lebron FAR MORE than anybody else. Maybe try reading more than 1 page before trying some weak ass Mavfan smack talk.

Most Mavs fans don't care one bit anymore about what happened to our team....we're still watching the playoffs and we can appreciate a superhuman performance when we see it. apparently you'd rather read into it that we take joy in your team losing when really we just enjoyed seeing Lebron light it up, especially after all the shit being talked about him. The only team I take joy in watching lose is the Spurs, I could give a fuck less about your shitty team.

Chr!s Childs is either an idiot or a troll. 48 pts. 29-30 of Cleveland's last points. The guy is amazing, basically a one man team is beating a former NBA Champion team. (with the caveat that now that Detroit has that pussy Chris Webber, they will never win anything as long as they keep Title Kryptonite around!)

Cavs in 6. Book it.

Then Spurs over Cavs in 5. :smokin

But honestly, it doesn't even matter if Lebron goes to the Finals or not...

if game 5 doesn't prove he's not a "joke", then nothing will.
