I addressed your dumbass post.
All I'm saying is that LeBron is always talking about what he can do, but he never does it
Yall give him a pass bc yall are his stans which is cool. However, I'm tired of the talking. He needs to show and prove

Stop tryna play stupid, crumb, I never said he didn't have the luxury in the past. Even then he wasn't a stat protector like Bron and Durant, which is what Bilz was saying was the case and when it has never been so.
"Wade and Bron have that luxury of protecting their fg% and finding hotter shooters on the team, alot of other players don't
"nikka those are YOUR fukkin words, not mine. Do you understand how linguistics work? When you start off sayin da shyt you did, then follow it wit a supporting final statement cosignin it...it can only be interpreted one way.
To anyone reading dat shyt, you're alluding to da fact Kobe indeed DID NOT have dat same "luxury" as what you believe Bron n Wade currently have.
nikkas can only go by da concrete shyt in front of em, especially on a message board. Cats can't just assume you meant to say something other than what was written.
fukk is wrong wit summa y'all brehs mane.

If I would have said, "Kobe did not" or ""Kobe never had" as if Kobe never had good teammates, then you could try to make this raggedy ass case. Everyone knows he had help before, but he was never one to protect his stats regardless, which is why I originally responded to Bilz when he tried to that case

Not true. Kobe takes shots at end of games because they are glory shots. He gets all the credit when they go in and when he misses, people are like "Kobe throws shots at the end of quarters all the time in addition to taking shots late in the shot clock because he teamates don't know what to do with the rock. Both are heavy stat killers, but he doesn't care
Wade and Bron have that luxury of protecting their fg% and finding hotter shooters on the team, alot of other players don't
it was an impossible shot anyway" His percentage is piss poor on those shots but people don't care and call him the clutchiest player anyway.At the end of quarters, ill repeat the same question I asked before, how many times do you see him trying to get open for a full court heave at the end of a quarter? It simply doesn't happen. Those shots have been reserved for teammates like Meeks, Odom, Vujacic, etc.

Then score 60, 70 nikka. No good just talking about it.
Yes we all know you prioritise 'winning the game' over everything else. But if you gonna come out and say it's easy to put up those numbers then do it.
ol' i can do it but i don't want do it ass nikka
He has proven his efficiency by shooting less for years, then why could we doubt it?

Because that's where this always goes. Kobe has scored 60+, LeBron hasn't, therefore Kobe can do it and LeBron can't. It's a simple fallacy that gets repeated endlessly.Kobe doesn't say shyt like that and out of 17 seasons, no one can find a quote similar to this LeBron one by Kobe.
AND
Kobe has already scored 60 or more on 37 shots. He's also scored 60 or more on 31 shots as well.....twice.
This thread ain't about Kobe though, so why do yall keep bringing him up?
That was my reason for wanting to know how many times LeBron has taken 37 shots (0) in comparison to how many times Kobe has done it (20). When you look at that, it's easy to see why Kobe has higher scoring games. Individual scoring games are skewed by shot volume.
Maybe scoring 60-70 wouldn't it be as easy as LeBron is making it sound (or more importantly, how people are assuming it sounded when he said it) but someone would have to be a hater to look at LeBrons numbers and previous performances and assume he's being blasphemous. Even if you factor in a decrease in efficiency and fatigue from taking more shots, it's clear he's going to score a shytload of points if you give him a ton of shots.
But I've never stated the Bron can't score 60
I'm saying that it would be hard for him to score 60 on only 37 shots when you're looking at his pts per attempt when he shoots more than 32 times a game and damn near impossible for him to score 70 on just 37 shots.
I didn't mention Kobe with it....I actually said that Durant scored 44 on 20 shots. He can say he'd score 80+ on 40 shots and I'd
at that statement. Kobe has nothing to do with this thread

Clutch is just not shooting the very last shot and making it, it's a culmination of things near the final buzzer that a player does to get the team in position to win. If a player shots two 3's in a row with 27 seconds left to make it a 2-3 point game, and misses the last shot, he's still clutch. In Kobe's case, Irregardless of his percentage on game winning shots, the fact remains that he takes those no matter how impossible they look and the ones he makes are crazy, that's why he gets the respect . Miss or make the fact that he attempts them is why a lot of people like watching him play
And I'm saying, yes, sometimes he attempts those heaves full court too at the end of quarters too, especially close quarters

Thats because when LeBron is having a good game, the team is typically up big and he either comes out early or simply doesn't need to take as many shots. The games I remember him shooting a lot in are the ones where he's struggling and they have to keep going to him down the stretch to try to win. They're not a good representation of what he can do if he is just gunning from start to finish regardless of the score.But I've never stated the Bron can't score 60

All you're doing is proving my point. Those end of game shots are blameless and he is celebrated even when he misses them. Of course he'll take those.
He does not attempt full court shots at the end of quarters. He usually even has his back turned to the inbounder. Everyone here knows I watch a lot of Lakers games so don't bother lying to me about this. I remember him taking one all of last season and it looked like a total accident that he got it off before the buzzer sounded.
