eric gordon
lebron james

they had the minnesota pick on deck for the 2012 draft and they woulda had the space to grab another free agent

Yeah, pretty much every other place had a better roster than the Heat for LeBron to go to.

Even the Nets were a better situation, simply because they could afford two players, still could have made that trade for Deron and had a center + PG to go with Bron and Bosh.

ppl really sayin lebron needs more help?
according to his fans he led bums to 60 win seasons, to da finals etc
he can make varejo better but not d wade and bosh>?
did lebron not say it was gonna easy and that pat riley could come and play and theyd still win??
was miami not da favourite to win before the season, before the playoffs etc by most ppl (including vegas) before the playoffs?
at some point, yall gonna have to stop cuddling dis dude and makin excuses for him
hes the problem


and yeah durant is better den him
not more talented
but lebron cant finish games and doesnt have the killer mentality like durant

lebron cant be trusted

I think what people are misinterpreting da "needing more help" into "needing more stars" or somethin. What's da point of having other star players on your squad when dem nikkas aint showin up? Anyone who's watched dese playoffs has seen the kind of out of dis world effort Bron has had to put forth in order for his "super team" to eam win fukkin games. Bosh out, role players nowhere to be found, and ya otha superstar patna continuing to take nights off. Dese aren't excuses, but legit observations dat cannot be disputed(at least dis 2012 playoff season). Durant is a fukkin BEAST in his own right, but his team is deeper and more reliable than Miami's bar none.

Bron deserves criticism at times but ya gotta at least try to be objective at some point. shyt i thought da BULLS squad was gon take it dis year before rose n noah got clipped. tbh :yeshrug:

I root for Bron n em but a great coached all around TEAM> 2 superstars, a shytty coach, n some unreliable role players all day err day.

even with bosh out, most ppl had them beating the celtics
spolestra was the coach last year when they beat the very team they r playin now. miami is better than they were last year from a roster standpoint, celtics are worst

we blame the coach
we blame wade
role players
blah blah wha bout bron?

lebron has better role players now than he had in clevland

its funny how when ppl were clownin on bosh heavy when he come to miami like he was just there for the ride and now using him as a excuse for their struggles:beli:

mayb we watchin different games
but what ive seen is (for the most part) lebron playin for three qrts and in da last qrt settin screens, standin in da corner, and doin nothin.
you making sound like lebrons out there with a bunch of bums
same shyt happened in clevland

miami, bosh or not, is good enough to beat the celtics

they were favoured to win da ring da last two years in clevland, had 60 win seasons
den when da playoffs come its "ohhh lebron dont have a supporting cast" "ohh lebron needs more help"

so okay he goes to miami, forms a super team dat is one of da major reasons for the lockout, he has so much help that riley can play and theyd still win (according to him)
last year in da finals he quit and they lost
now dis year, we blaming wade?
im not sayin wade isnt playin bad, but at what point do we look at the common factor in all these scernaios
in da reg season lebron plays with confidence and belief. his team follows suit.
in da playoffs, he tenses up almost at random. wha u think gon happen if da leader tenses up? da role players gonna tense up too

his stateline can really mislead ppl into thinking he's playing out of this world but in reality he a front runner

true, but the pieces on that roster fit a lot better than the miami pieces

look how good bron+jj hickson looked....imagine him with blake

eric gordon is a great compliment to lebron because he's not ball dominant

clippers still had money to get another max player, plus they had a lotto pick of their own and the rights to the minny pick this summer

they had deandre jordan to protect the paint

most importantly, that team had youth....they would have given lebron the chance to be competitive until 2020 if they could avoid injuries. lebron is the youngest guy on the heat

Yeah, pretty much every other place had a better roster than the Heat for LeBron to go to.

Even the Nets were a better situation, simply because they could afford two players, still could have made that trade for Deron and had a center + PG to go with Bron and Bosh.

yup, he had some attractive options

i would have loved to see lebron play defense for thibs though

:wow:

:russ: if he woulda played OK in the 4th quarter in the finals last year they sweep the Mavs or win in 5.

Not great, Ok

b.....the kid had 8 points one game. :snoop:

i don't even think Jason Terry had that few. if Bron just put up 20-22 a game, Miami wins. i think Bron be trolling the league sometimes :lolbron:

Uh, isn't that LeBron's fault? I mean he could have picked the Bulls or Knicks, teams that had caproom and fully fleshed out rosters.


Can't use that "Team" argument for him anymore, he made this bed.

Remember when people were saying he took the easy way out and was ring chasing and running from pressure? From jump I said that he and Wade didn't fit together because they were too similar and that there were other spots that were better options. He actually put more pressure on himself and hasn't really responded to well to it when it mattered. Just goes to show that things other talent matter and are crucial to winning.

Lebron when he first went to the finals was in a garbage east where he faced the 40 win nets and Wizards before beating the:flabbynsick: pistons squad. Then got waxed by the Spurs.Too different situations. KD plays in a stacked west
