Bron asked how to stop curry "Same way you stop me... you cant"

[Professor Emeritus]

Because teams double.His post game is trash I'd let lebron beat my squad everytime in the post his mid range game is suspect,his footwork is garbage stop doubling and let him try to beat you his post moves are limited.If he converts oh well He'll be exhausted if he keeps posting up(which he won't)

Lebron was top-5 in the league in scoring efficiency from the post every season since 2011. He was #1 in the league by 2013.

The only thing you got right was that he'd get exhausted - that stuff is hard to do exclusively...but if you single-covered him for half the game like you say, the damage he'd do would already be enough to screw you.

Bron was getting a majority of his points when the games were WELL decided bruh. You and I both know that. It wasn't his fault the rest of the Heat team didn't show up, but after the first two games, them numbers were hollow as shyt even though it wasn't his fault.

How many points did Lebron score in the 4th quarters of already-decided games?

You're claiming that 3rd quarter, down 20 is "already decided". That's bullshyt. Both teams are playing hard and games are being contested. If Lebron or Kawhi backed off at that point, everyone would be on their ass.

Curry is Bruce Leroy and Bron is Shonuff.

You watched the same finals I watched last year. No way in hell were the Heat coming back when games 3-5 got out of hand which obviously was the case because they never cut the a plus 15 deficient to less than 10 points bruh. You act as if i'm pointing the finger at Bron when in my original point addressing this, I CLEARLY stated he had no help

​

26-11-9 2-2 on 40% shooting with a game-winning buzzer-beater against one of the best defenses in the league

Those are potential MVP numbers. What was Westbrook this year...28-7-9-2-0 on 42% shooting?.


And TT is the ONLY guy on the Cavs who had more offensive rebounds than Lebron. Noah had more offensive rebounds that TT and Bulls had more offensive rebounds than the Cavs in the series. ​

I seriously don't understand the volume of hate threads LeBron gets on this site

If this was up when Jordan was playing he'd have more.

He Has more rings and haters than lebron

my spurs tried that two seasons ago in game 7

Yup Pop fukked up, he should've just let Kawhi actually guard him and press him instead of letting him shoot open jumpers

Lebron averaged 28 in the finals last year, which is, ironically, roughly the same average number of points they lost each game by.

Btw, when you're team is losing by 30, 28 ppg is either garbage time and/or ineffective buckets. If Kobe put up 30 in a finals series and lost im sure his average would be ignored or frowned upon.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Pretty much what Dallas did to him when they met in the finals. It's no secret. It's like the basketball world as forgotten that he's not a great outside shooter all of a sudden.

If everyone "knows what to do" since June 2011, yet he's won 13 out of 14 series since then (and averaged 28-8-4 on 57/52/79 % shooting splits in the one series he did lose), perhaps he really is basically unstoppable?

Lebron James was an above-average outside shooter the last three years he was in Miami. He averaged 36%, 41%, and 38% from 3pt those three years. He's been a solid shooter on long twos too, well over 40% overall since 2010 (though his numbers have fluctuated - at one point he was hitting close to 45% and was among the best in the league). Even this year, a series down year shooting for him, he was 38% on long twos and 35% on threes, which is better than many guards who are considered "shooters".

Perhaps the actual answer is that you need to score about 100 points to win a game, and need to limit the other team to fewer points than you get, and no player in the NBA does that by themselves?

If Kobe ever put up 28/8/4 on 57/52/79 shooting splits, most would agree that he hadn't been "stopped".

He's shooting 27% outside the paint THIS playoffs.

No, if Lebron is the ultimate player and teammate like everyone says, he wouldve led his team to put up a fight in every game instead of being destroyed. His numbers are null and void because they mostly came when the game was decided.

I'm not saying Kawhi locked him down but his numbers are inflated.

Taking one stretch of 14 games doesn't define a player, especially when you have 4 years of evidence to counter it.

Especially when that player has won 12 of those 14 games, including 8 of 10 against elite teams.

Kobe had one stretch of 15 games where he shot 1-35 from three.

No player can do it himself. Magic was an elite player and teammate, and he always had elite teams, and he still got blown out too from time to time.
