LeBron James just finished out a losing Finals on the bench ...

[intilectual recipricol]

I seen Nate fukkin Robinson bring a team back from worse in the 4th with the same time left... I guess the Heats need to trade Bronze for Nate never seen Nate quit

 

[ArchStanton]

Game was over, but I was a little surprised he was pulled as early as he was just because. But it was over.

 

[BXKingPin82]

[CashmereThoughts]

Not one not rwo

Da way we gon challenge ourself in practice da game gone be easy

 

[Brozay]

thats what i said earlier ,

i cant believe how some good posters are turning into fakkets ass trolls when it comes to lebron. these dudes are throwing logic, context and all that shyt in the bushes


yes im talking to you @Brozay

Im not trolling Bron, Im not even really trying to take shots at him here

for all we know Spo benched him on his own accord

 

[Teko]

That was his first break in the match. Spurs were too hot so there was no point in coming back

 

[GatorStaceyAdams]

The benching was, questionable to say the least....

But the biggest concern was Lebron's play throughout the second half.

My man was walking up and down the court with this look of indifference.
He was blatantly deferring to others on offense while he almost purposely went in hiding .
He stopped going to the rim, and straight up just conceded to Leonard everything except some hailmary type 3 pointers.

Even my girl was like 'why is Bron just walking around? why doesnt he demand the ball?"

Now, before stan's get their panties in a bunch, this loss was more a testament of Spo's inability to Coach a team with equal or superior talent than his own. Also, I do believe that Lebron did 'enough' for his team to win.

But what I saw in the 2nd half, from the half hearted effort on offense/defense, the non-chalant attitude and the eventual 'benching', speaks volumes.

 

[god shamgod]

This is what lebron wanted .When those fakkits colluded they thought it would be easy and 4 years later bosh is a glorified role player/corner 3 shooter and wade sucks

 

[RedBull]

I love Bron but people make too many excuses for him.

 

[OG Talk]

they trying to say the game was over with over 6 mins to go, an NBA Finals elimination game

you cant make a simple observation without the Bron stans jumping in being defensive

The thing is you're not just simply questioning Spo for pulling Bron at the end of the game...You're fishing for a scenario where Spo wanted to keep him in, BUT Bron demanded to be taken out...Who you think you foolin with your "But this aint a criticism of LeBron thread" nonsense





Create imaginary scenarios in your head that never happened because it fits your narrative brehs...

FOH with your thread

I wouldnt necessarily criticize him for demanding to be taken out either, his team gave up on defense and conceded the game

Just a bit surprising he followed suit, but we all have our breaking points

 

[MsBigHead]

if he is still sitting on the bench after 2 years then we will be concerned

 

[Lakers Offseason]

Isiah Thomas scored 16 points in a minute and a half in a playoff game to send a game into overtime.

He also scored 25 points in a single quarter against the Lakers in the finals with a sprained ankle.

I like Bron. I think he gets unfairly criticized at times. But last night, coming off the game with that much time left in the Finals? Nah, didn't like it.

 

[the cac mamba]

we all know the game was over but i cant lie, i was like at bron headin to the bench. because it = giving up

 

[the cac mamba]

the spurs have been slicing the heat's defense for 5 games and this nikka thinks they were magically going to get 8 straight stops

i dont think anyone thinks that, but to not even try? or want to try? left a bad taste in my mouth (pause)

frankly im chalkin this up as another incident that makes me like bron a lil less, and im a fan
