Lebron should be ashamed that Wade is able to post Kidd up but he can't.
I agreed.
The Heat never really had a handled on the game.
This just might be the second game that Dallas was bound to win.
I think they lose game 5 and 6 with certainly.
Lebron should be ashamed that Wade is able to post Kidd up but he can't.
Lebron should be ashamed of not being able post up consistently at 6'9 260.
We need Kyle to come in here and make a "######beast" comment.
It was a running joke at the bar I was at. Pretty bizarre how ineffective he was. If he's not scoring he has the skills to effect the game in other ways but he didn't. He was an afterthought by the end.
bron's crab-pace no longer allowed in this series that kinda explains why he be sucking so bad. just be an NFL player trapped in a basketball jersey
Not sure if the Mavs strategy is to throw all they can at LeBron and let Wade go off. All this knowing that LeBron is not nearly as mentally tough as Wade. Wade had some tough games against the Bulls---LeBron did well. Bulls lost.
Where does Lebron's mom live now? She's not close to the team's facilities in South Florida is she?
She lives with her boyfriend, Delonte West.
Is anyone keeping an eye on Chalmers off the court life?
Serious question...
are you really going to try and compare LBJ to Terry?
it's not the same at all. Dirk is the main option and the go to option for his team, and as you saw tonight he played terrible albeit he was sick; however, when crunch time came he WANTED the ball and he made something happen even though he had been trash all night long
LBJ who is arguably the best player on the planet didn't show up period tonight. LBJ didn't want any part of the game in the 4th quarter and had he even had a glimpse of any offense going the Heat are able to pull that out tonight.
Yes, Wade lost the game by missing the FT and fumbling that last show away, but that game wasn't on him. That's all LBJ.
Nothing to see here. Just Lebron pulling a Kobe after Wade humbled him in the post game 3 media frenzy.

Wade is pretty much quicker than anyone else on Dallas. Lebron had a size advantage on Chicago, whereas Dallas they have the big bodies who are mobile enough to stay in front of him. But why for the life of me when Terry is guarding him he wasn't posting him all day is beyond me. He should had been screaming for the ball. Wade just ran out of gas because he was the only one doing it on both ends of the floor while Lebron just stood around watching him.
Lebron didn't have a better size advantage against Chicago, Deng is just as big as any Mav perimeter player, and he(along with Brewer) are better defenders than anybody on the Mavs..
Dallas isn't doing anything that Boston and Chicago didn't, other than the occasional zone.. Lebron is just sucking and playing passive..
He's right (for the most part). Deng is a good defender and a perfect combo of size and speed to defend James. Brewer is a great one-on-one defender, but too small to guard Bron. Marion is more effective on Bron than Brewer is. Brewer was great on Wade.
What's LeBron's excuse? Nobody's banging his mom this time.
Marion looks to me to be alot quicker than Deng, and Stevenson also does well against James. And if push comes to shove Kidd can probably play James well during stretches. James was doing whatever he wanted against Deng. And it has more to do with it than just James just sucking, or the zone.
The frustrating thing about James is that despite being so physically gifted, possessing great court vision, and being adept at drawing fouls, he has a penchant for inexplicably checking out of big games/moments. No one cares that he was 2-10 from the field or whatever entering the 4th. You're a superstar, if you're shot's not falling then take it to the rack--especially when Kidd or Terry is switched on to you. If Wade's getting doubled or they're collapsing heavy on him, help him out. 0 pts and 0 assists in the decisive 4th quarter. Unacceptable
Yeah, I hate LeBron James because he's an utterly contemptible got of a human being, but the guy's talent is out of this world. If he ever "gets" it, the NBA will be screwed.
He is getting up there in age sort of, alot of his game relies on athleticism and in 4 years he will start to slow down physically... I think it's too late in his career to "get it". He is what he is. A physically gifted superstar with good skills but no where near the skill level of other all time greats. Still has a chance to be a borderline top 10 player if he continues his individual achievements and wins 3-4 les with the Heat, even if it as a sidekick to Wade in the closing of games.
I don't even hate him anymore like I did. That hate has switched to Chalmers. But I think if LBJ ever develops a consistent jumper is when he will be really dangerous. I know LBJ would shake the living daylights out of me with little effort, but his moves compared to Rose, Kobe, Wade, Paul, just seem turtle slow. He really reminds me of a bigger version of D. Williams without the jumper, but better at assist and of course.... Other than that to me he is just a big dude with okay, not great handle who can jump out the gym. Wade like Kobe and MJ seems to be just naturally smooth when it comes to moves. And it just so happens you can't develop a gameplan against that.
Bron's got plenty of time. Jordan didn't win his first till he was 28 iirc. Jordan also wasn't a quitter with a penchant for shrinking in the moment, but that's neither here nor there.
Spo is a great x's and o's coach, despite what people say. He just doesn't feel comfortable calling the talent out on its bull . The problem is coaching ego's is an art unto itself. Zen Master and Riley are perfect at this. If Riley was on the bench and saw Bron sleepwalking through the 4th like that, he'd light a fire under his ass or park him on the bench. Riles is an expert motivator and somebody Bron sorely needs in the huddle. Wade knows the moment w/o being told (credit given to Riles for instilling this in him in 2006).
LeBron has 3 big games to make his mark...he's more than capable of doing so
