Heat: Lebron: "I get jealous that KD takes 30+ shots a night"

[irishock]

If he could replicate his game 7 performance every game, why doesn't he? Too beta? Fluke?

He has the Shaq mentality. Who gives a about the regular season?

[Captivus]

Either LeBron is a troll genius or he's ing re ed at Math... based on that quote

[DMC]

That's true. And when Kobe does like that, the Kobe haters come out in full force to blast him. Why should it be any different for LeBron?

Even if he's trolling and trying to manipulate the media, he's still being a whiny and an attention . When Kobe says stupid in the media like feigning anger about his preseason rankings, he gets ted on and rightfully so. Now that LeBron is doing something similar in the media, he should also get ted on and rightfully so.

As great as LeBron is, there is still a part of him that needs the attention, the affirmation, the re-affirmation, the doting, the praise and all the pomp and cir stance. Winning championships may be priority one, but he also has a side agenda for individual awards and accolades. He's not subtle. Making public comments about him being able to lead the league in scoring if he wanted to or wanting to average a triple double for the season (earlier on in his career in one of those NBA commercials) and now him propagandizing his cause is pathetic for a guy who has already won multiple championships and multiple League MVPs and steadily climbing the short list of all tiem greats.

Oh poor LeBron. He doesn't get to score as much as other guys in the league. Who gives a ? You're winning championships. Stop ing to the media and play basketball. You're the "CHOSEN ONE." You're the King. You can do what you want. You want to score more, then score more. You want to stat pad, then stat pad. You want fix your balding, then go to Bosley. But don't cry to the media lamenting your sad situation.

Poor LeBron. Oh oh oh, poor LeBron...

That's what happens when you fling a billion questions at an egocentric person. You get some responses. It doesn't mean he went to the media ing about his number of shots.

JamStone going in on Cn the way he did Fabbs

Tell me this is copy pasted. Someone actually went through the effort of typing all of that out over Lebron ing around?

You even admitted it, if Lebron really wanted to do any of that, he can. He used to do that in Cleveland. He's clearly ing with Durant. (Someone who everyone knows obsesses over his stats)

(fwiw, I read literally none of your post)

[whitemamba]

How the do you know what I admitted if you "literally read none of[my] post?"

Don't read my post. Make fun of my post all you want. I don't give a . But if you are going to act all pretentiously sanctimonious with your "I didn't even read your post haha" bull , at least don't look like a dumbass by clearly contradicting yourself in that very post. Are you ing re ed?

Can you answer the question?

You can probably say the same about 90% of what pro athletes say in the media, but when they say something stupid, they will be criticized. Big deal.

I read your post on the first page, not that other one.

Then take more shots, you whiny .

It's not like Spoelstra or your teammates or Riley or anybody for that matter is going to stop you.

I'd accept your apology if you give one tbh.

[JamStone]

I'm sorry.

[jimbo]

Thank you

[whitemamba]

Can you answer the question?

No dwight was miserable, and a risk at the FT line. If we talk about nascar are u going to mention kobe?

[Bynumite]

"We'll see Wednesday how I'm coasting," James said jokingly as he made his way into the Heat locker room on Monday. "You'll see the numbers I'll put up on Wednesday. Just watch."

Final score Heat 97 - 114 Wizards

butthurt see are we? I was talking about Lebron, but ur hard on for the lakers is getting in the way.

What Lebron is doing, even if it's not his intent, is what's best for his team. Allowing Bosh and Wade to produce during the RS is very important for the team. Him taking 30+ shots a game does nothing since we all know he can and that he can be the scoring leader if he wanted to. He is stat watching, but not stat whoring. There's a difference. He's not chasing stats, he's minding them.

Lebron chases stats he just prefers efficiency numbers and triple doubles. I have no problem with his play style but acting like he doesn't care about his stats simply cuz he doesn't volume shoot is naïve.

Efficiency and stat chasing are incompatible things. You can chase stats but you cannot chase efficiency. Every player starts off at 100% (or zero depending on how you look at it). Lebron has to guard his efficiency, but he has to pursue stats if he wants them. His shot selection is his security for his efficiency rating. That's different than padding stats. You don't chase triple doubles. If that was possible, more people would do it. Getting the points isn't the issue, it's getting the other stats like rebounds and assists.

Stat whoring is evident in your user name tbh...

You can spin it however you want. Protect chase. to me anytime your play is dictated by focusing on a stat you are not playing "naturally" ...
LOL Always Kobe with some of you get his out your mouth we were discussing Durant and James.
Kobe's bad shot selection and gunning has plenty of other threads to be discussed in ...

There are players that stat pad assists and rebounds...

[Killakobe81]

I also disagree about triple doubles people chase triple and double doubles all the time I have seen James do it a few times in Cleveland ... When a player is close to a double or triple double they go out of their way to complete it. Happens plenty tbh.
Again, I don't have an issue with how he plays ...but folks act like he doesn't care about stats when it's quite obvious he does.
As long as he wins he can play however he wants.

There's a difference between making one out and chasing one. If you start the game chasing a triple double, you're probably going to fail. If Kobe could post triple doubles you and the entire LA fan base would talk about it non stop because let's be honest: the only reason you about Lebron or KD is because they are getting attention you feel should belong to Kobe. Kobe takes 45+ shots in a game and you celebrate that like it's a Nobel prize. Lebron just mentions he thinks about taking more shots and suddenly he's a stat chaser.
