Gilbert Arenas' Basketball Opinions Thread

[sportscribe]

James isn't a #1 option..and yes I (didn't stutter) he lacks #selfishness so he will always need a go to guy like wade was or kyrie.. he lacks what jordan and kobe were..great 1 on 1 players... he needs a pure scorer beside him so he can carry the TEAM load...

LeBron James isn't a number 1 option on a team, but Kyrie is.

First off the dude types just like a coli poster. I'm surprised he didn't end the 'article' with breh.

Some of what he is saying makes sense, but the crux of it is jargon. How can you claim LeBron is not a "go to guy" but then turn around and say that he would average 40 points in a season if he was more selfish?

What makes LeBron a great player is making players around him better. If he exhibits selfishness like Kobe did when he was scoring 35ppg then he would just score a lot of points in losing efforts. LeBron is a great all-round player and this insanely confused article could have addressed that better.

IN A NUTSHELL, WHAT HE'S SAYING IS THAT HE'D BE A GO-TO-GUY AND A 1ST OPTION IF HE HAD HEART.....BUT SINCE HE DOESNT, WE HAVE TO SETTLE FOR HIM FALLIN SHORT OF BEIN A TOP-TIER GOAT. IT'S REALLY NOT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND, I DONT SEE THE ISSUE.


LEBRON HAVING KILLER INSTINCT MEANS HE WOULDA WON ALL 4 TITLES IN MIAMI.....THATS ALWAYS BEEN THE KNOCK ON HIM, N IT ALWAYS WILL.

He didn't mention anything about heart... the keyword he used was "selfishness".

Stop spinning the article to draw your own weird conclusions.

im so tired of this nikkas threads, his girl got snatched by bron or something

It's like if eye cue and swagnificent had a baby with Down syndrome or autism or something like that. Retarded ass Kobe stanning mixed with a million hate spam threads.

 

[Bilz]

SO HE DOESNT TRY AND ONLY TURNS UP WHEN HE'S "PISSED OFF AND CHALLENGED" BECAUSE HE ONLY CARES ABOUT WINNING? SMH SLAP YASELF BRODIE.

HE SAYIN HE GOTS NO HEART...GET OVER IT MAYN

I don't know what to tell you. You have taken one quote out of context and you ignored the rest of it.

He says he cringes when people make the argument you're making right now and he says LeBron is the 2nd or 3rd best player of all time. Is this really the person you want as the spokesperson for your LeBron hate brigade?

IT'S JUST A NICE WAY TO PUT IT, BUT IF, IN ESSENCE, HE SAYIN "LEBRON COULD BE SO MUCH GREATER", WTF DOES THAT MEAN TO U? DONT BE A RETARD.

AND THATS WHY HE HAS A LOSING RECORD IN THOSE FINALS APPEARANCES..BUT EITHER WAY, WADE AND LEBRON WERE PUTTIN UP PRETTY MUCH THE SAME SHOT ATTEMPTS PER MINUTE IN THE 2012 AND 2013 FINALS. U CANT SAY THE SAME FOR ANY OF JORDAN OR KOBE'S SIDEKICKS...AND IN THAT REGARD, LEBRON DIDNT EVEN HAVE A SIDEKICK. IT WAS 1A AND 1B.

No offense breh... But is shot attempts per minute even a stat? If it is, are you sure its even a stat that helps your argument?
