Why do y'all pretend that the most unselfish volume scoring perimeter player in league history is somehow too selfish to let others have the ball? The haters can't make up their minds as to whether they think Lebron is too passive or too selfish.
Turn Lamar Odom into a spot up shooter LeBrehs. :mjgrin:

Did Lebron not will that flawed 2007 and last years team to the finals, two teams who had no chance in winning a championship.

Your opinion is fine, just make sure you keep that same energy when discussing bron.
Yes he did. Which is why the criticisms are unfair.

Its amazing...folks call me a Bron Stan for that reason.

@2Quik4UHoes no hate but how all of sudden you came out of hiding when LeBron lost in the finals..

:comeon:

Lol I wasn’t exactly hiding. But I guess it’s a helluva coincidence. This the most I posted in awhile tho you right. :russ:

'm not biased when it comes to anybody. I'm a basketball fan and my loyalty is only to the truth has I seen it. My comments are all based in logic. Again, you're deflecting on some ad hominem shyt. It's you who has the bias.

How do you explain his lack of effort then? You keep trying to make this about the game plan when it's not about that. It's about kobe's palpable lack of effort in that second half. He wasn't following any game plan, he was just out there coasting. He wasn't getting playing hard on defense, he wasn't out there hustling for loose balls, and he damn sure wasn't out there trying to get his teammates going. He wasn't just out there pouting, going through the motions.

Your question is irrelevant. It doesn't matter what the strategy was because the issue is the lack of effort. He wasn't out there trying his hardest to do anything, shoot or set teammates up and get the money going. Dude had 1 assist, 4 rebs and 3 turnovers for the entire game. You can't even be honest with yourself.

The bold is lies. The only time that Kobe has been in a similar position to Lebron was this past season is when he wasn't making the playoffs or was being sent home after the first round. The only thing that he figured out is that he needed more talent around him.

Y'all are just full of shyt for no reason. We all know the truth. We know thy Kobe threw temper tantrums and demanded a trade when he was in a similar position as Lebron was this past season. His
"Lebron has no excuse, he supposed to figure it out" comments are just passive aggressive hate.

Nobody is saying Lebron I perfect. People are just acknowledging that the cavs didn't have the help around him to compete with the warriors.

How much more different would this cavs team had been if they had that version of Odom in place of love? I say that Odom'a versatility and playmaking would've made this cavs team a notch better and a better matchup for the warriors.

Lol, we just see it two different ways bro we ain’t gonna agree. What we see as truth just ain’t the same. Not that we ever had regarding this subject. If you can honestly sit there and say that Kobe didn’t learn how to be a better teammate and leader after Shaq left then how impartial are you really? Are you saying his career is just dumb luck?

My question is relevant because no one can answer it despite their declarations that Kobe gave no effort or didn’t try in that game. What I can agree on though, is that having this incident on his record (it looked bad whether he was right or wrong) and saying what he said didn’t make him the best messenger but I still agree with his points.

Lmfao at Odom being a better replacement that Love. Love was at least hitting his threes, Odom wasn’t gonna give you a bunch of offensive support like that. Perhaps in addition to what they had, Odom from those Lakers title squads could’ve made a big difference but not by himself.

Some of these “fans” are cult of personality fans moreso than fans of consistent principles.
In 07’ Ithought BARkley and others wrongly crticized Kobe for quiting in Game 7 when he was the main reason the underdog Lakers made it to a game 7 in the first place. He didnt quit. His team just wasnt good enough.

But the same fans see the same thing play out with Cleveland and Bron and suddenly its no longer principles and its about WHO it involves on some
