Heat: The reason for Lebron's struggles is evident..

[StrengthAndHonor]

I read all this Lebron needing a Scottie Pippen but tbqh, Lebron is practically playing Pippen's role in the Finals. He's doing everything well, rebounding, play making and has been solid defensively, and just like Pippen he's also playing passive offensively.


Lebron doesn't need a player like Pip besides him. He needs a player like Jordan tbh.

This.

They are pretty much doing EXACTLY what the Mavs did in 11. He didn't choke against Dallas like people want to say and believe. They took his strengths away, and outside of Wade, no one consistently stepped up to help, plus they had no way to consistently contain Dirk on defense. San Antonio is doing the same, in taking his strengths away. So far though, on defense the problem has been that the Spurs have been shooting lights out. I'm curious to see that when Miami makes some adjustments, and those 3's stop falling, if anyone can carry the team the way Dirk did for the Mavs. I think Miami is equipped to keep Parker from being that guy, as defense on perimeter players seem to be their specialty. They are good at taking away strengths from guards, but big men can really hurt them. Duncan is the guy who needs to step up for that purpose IMO.

The threes didn't fall in game one, and the Spurs got wide open 3s because the Hest are jamming the pick and roll and now doubling Duncan on the block. With Parker's iinjury the Heat will probably give Parker space in the next game so it will probably be up to him

I'm not sure why Wade at full strength is being mentioned, btw(well I'm not surprised, since it's Hoops Czar, the same guy that thought the Nuggets were just as good as the Spurs, among many other bad takes)..

Wade has been hobbled the entire playoffs, he's not even a top 50 player at the moment, tbh..not only has he been poor on offense, but his defense has been atrocious, most of Danny Green's makes have been due to Wade getting lost and being lazy, tbh..

Dwyane Wade in the playoffs: 17.2 PER, 49% TS, 101 offensive rating(by far the lowest on the Heat roster), and a 0.94 WS/48(worst on the Heat roster)..14.2 PPG..

Just for comparison sake..

Manu Ginobili in the playoffs: 17.6 PER, 51% TS, 101 offensive rating, 1.29 WS/48..10.9 PPG..

Ginobili is the 5th best player on the Spurs roster, and he's been slightly worse than Wade in the playoffs, tbh..

Wade will bounce back next year with a healthy knee and a rigorous offseason routine, but Wade on one knee in the playoffs has been an average player, at best..

If Lebron wins this series, it will be the greatest individual run in NBA history, surpassing Jordan in 91, tbh..

Find me that post you sanctimonious mook. The only reason your prediction rate is so high is because you pick both teams. When one wins, oh gee, Harlem be right again. I can't believe anyone takes your ty Spurs takes seriously when anyone paying attention knows your all in on the heat. As far as Wade is concerned, injuries are a part of the game. That doesn't affect your top 50 status you silly . He averaged over 21 points per game, shooting over 50% shooting during the regular season. Only TP shared that distinction. Your argument is laughable as is so many of your Lebron takes. Don't tell me Lebron doesn't have a supporting cast, you're just embarrassing yourself. Maybe you should give credit where credit is due for the first time in your life, the Spurs defense.

Tbh. I'd put it above anybody given the cir stance if this happen. But Lebron must play big the rest of the way.

Unless Parker is hurt

If Parker is hobled Lebron is the luckiest GOAT wanna be sine Kobe

[D-Wade]

Lebron's struggles are caused by the amount of expectations heaped on him. He's not good at carrying the torch alone. He's been told by Wade (no less) that he's taking too many shots. then he's tries to get Wade involved and then he's told he's not shooting enough. He's expected to always lead in rebounds, assists and points. Meanwhile Bosh and Wade are legriding him for all he's worth. Mike Miller can hit from anywhere, but he's not getting the touches to make a difference. Wade is an anchor around Lebron's ankles, the whole "it's his team" thing is costing the Heat. They think they have to have all three stars performing but it's more of an effort to get everyone involved than it is to just play the game as it comes to them. Second guessing shots and trying to force things so everyone gets involved because that's what they say he needs to do, that's costing Lebron the swag he would have if he were just running the offense and others were getting touches where they can get them.

Definitely some truth to this & pretty much what I said on my blog. Lebron has always been mentally shaky. And on some level, although what Wade said was true (if he and Bosh were holding up to their end of the bargain by playing well), it mind ed LBJ.

How many excuses does LeFlop need?

Just like the excuses in Cleveland. The Cavs were good enough to win 66 games in the regular season and the Heat were good enough to win 27 in a row, so there shouldn't be any excuses in the playoffs.

Kobe and Jordan carried worse supporting casts to championships.

Miami superfriends all look kind of older than their ages for some odd reason, pretty much like my goddess Scarlett. That's probably a cost of early blossom i guess. Duncan didn't join the league too early and that's why his good form sustains longer imho.

lol I thought you were done with the hooks of the s. They are all the same, nothing but life support systems for their pussies and they suck men into them to milk a life's worth of support for the bas trophies that pop out.

DMC always brings the truth bombs and it never disappoints me. I've been a life long celibate, and a hardcore misogynist since as early as i can remember. I slapped a out of a 's face when i was in the 3rd grade, I showed thump-down gestures to our physics teacher (who was female) right in the class room etc... es are made to be subordinates to men, while to me and a couple friends, they ain't even our same species at all.

Some of my high school classmates referred to them es as "female monkeys", but i thought the term was too long so i would rather simply call them es (literally meaning "female dogs"). plus, monkeys are smart animals and i don't think es are that smart. monkeys are superior to other animals athletically and intelligently, and being called "monkeys" would be an eulogy to them es imho

most es have to dab 3-4 layers of chemical stuffs on their faces every morning in order to look good, and to sell them for good prices in the world of men, but I would never pay a dog for any stuffs the es peddle. I just appreciate Scarlett's beauty as a work of art, nothing else. I've claimed multiple times that I would never consider getting a like this as my girlfriend even if you give me one in the real life. I'm a lifelong celibate and hardcore misogynist, and I would give everyone the privilege to kill me if I ever betrayed my belief.

Plus, Scarlett without makeup ain't much better than the es you see everyday at the bus station or a grocer. here's evidence

[HarlemHeat37]

ESPN stealing my argument on their website today, tbh..

It sucks for Lebron, tbh, he has set the bar so high that 95% of basketball fans don't even acknowledge that he plays literally every role for his team, the wear and tear adds up, tbh..combining that with an elite opponent and the best coach to ever do it, and you get ty results, like missing layups he makes 99% of the time, tbh..

It's evident that he has been out of gas since the Indiana series..carrying your team and playing every role on the team for 3 straight Finals runs is exhausting, tbh..
