LeBron throwing darts at KD and other high-volume chuckers

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Yeah he's shooting 60% and coming off of 3 straight Finals appearences...But I can't help but wonder how good he could be if he really commited himself to making 60 foot buzzer beaters, at the end of the 3rd quarter in Milwaukee in February...

It's a legitimate point to bring up...

Because all though he's technically "winning" he's not reaching his full potential as a "winner that can consistently airball 60 footers"...Thats a different level of winning that only the greats possess...

And I can't really respect him until he adds that aspect to his game...

I feel you. I mean come on, if some random no-name can do it in some random meaningless game then the King should be able to do it too. Hell I've seen fans hit half court shots before. Does this guy even deserve to be in the league anymore?

 

[OTC]

So he waits to bring up this Durant shyt when his second option is out?
Obviously dude has to shoot just for his team to stay afloat. With that said, KD is hitting at a damn near 50% clip LOL.

It's a really clownish statement

 

[Savior]

Another one of his "if I did this, I'd put up this" bullshyt

nikka shut all the way the fukk up. Tired of hearing this nikka talking bout the shyt he could doNever seen an athlete accomplish so much without actually accomplishing so much.

"If I entered dunk contest I'd win"
"If I tried, I could shoot 90% from the ft line"
"If I put up 27 shots, I'd score 60 or 70"
"If I shot as much as kd, imagine what I'd do"

Do it! Ol' if I ruled the world ass nikka

Pretty much...this whiny fakkit is acting like if he wanted to put up 30 shots a night someone would stop him. If you wanna do it do it bytch made nikka don't fukkin whine about it in the media . Then his fans wonder why so many of us don't respect him

The first page of this thread was highly entertaining

steady shytting or Passive aggressive??

Steady shytting. This isn't the first time Bron has said something like this. I really think he thinks if he shot the ball 25-30 times a night he could average 40+. If only he had the opportunity and the green light.

Could be passive aggressive, too. I also hear him saying that he would be ridiculed if he shot below 50% while shooting so many shots. He's suggesting that he has a conscious that prevents him from hoisting up so many shots a la KD, Kobe, Melo, etc who appear to be unconscious.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

no. I think you misread it. bron ain't sending shots at no one. he's just acknowledging that the way he plays in BORING. He wishes he could hoist up a ton of shots. shyt everyone whose ever played ball knows this. Its alot more fun to shoot than do anything else on the court. Bron is just p*ssy and scared of criticism. He thinks if he shoots a high % and gets a ton of assists it can deflect criticism from him. We all know he's very self-conscious about people not liking him. Guys like Kobe don't give a fukk what others think and relish the hate.

You might be on to something breh. I think Bron is a prisoner of his own game. He's been able to do a lot of everything since coming into the League such that if he were to start shooting more and neglecting the other things (passing, rebounding, defending) he might be criticized. And as you stated, he doesn't like criticism.

Smart players? How is scoring the most points possible on the least amount of shots a bad thing?

What's better 31 points on 14 shots or 41 points on 27 shots?

41 points, unless the 27 shots were selfish/dude was passin up opportunities to dish it

Your input on ANYTHING basketball related is TERRIBLE.

Who taught your fatherless ass about the game of basketball?

If you say you learned by watching Kobe then that makes a TON of sense.

 

[the cac mamba]

Dude makes it so hard to like him




This is why people pray on your downfall

im sayin, i NEVER bought into the fukk lebron hype. dudes one of the best to ever do it so the blind hate is

that being said tho, this dude stays with the bytchmade comments and flops and that type of shyt

 

[dem bath salts]

As a Heat fan, this is pissing me off. It's no reason he shouldn't have 20 shots every game but he's a chilling with 15 jawns too fukking much. We wouldn't even have 5 loses this year if he shot a little more. He keeps nikkas in the games sometimes by not just finishing them.

 

[Draje]

Did my team win on my 31 pts from 14 attempts? If not, maybe I should have sho 27 shots.

You win in both games. What stat line is more impressive?

 

[Reggie]

LeBron's fg% went up drastically after coming to Miami. Wade and Bosh's went up slightly. Its not a coincidence

Look at his fg percentage and tell me that he wouldn't have reached at least a mid 50's fg percentage eventually. Having Wade and Bosh helps but he was shooting over 50 percent in Cleveland his last year and was still clearly trending up regardless of if he left them or not.

 

[Draje]

this is what I've been saying

LeBron shooting 60% cause he's playing like Shaq now. He's only taking shots in the paint. And the rare outside shot he takes is completely wide open. He refuses to take any contested shots. If your gonna take 25-30 shots a game, instead of 15, you gonna need to take contested shots. LeBron has not shown the ability to make contested outside shots like many of the great scorers in this league (KD, Melo, Kobe, etc.)

Just look at how his fg% plummets in the playoffs when defenses pack the paint and force him to shoot jumpers.

Lebron typically averages around Kobe's PPG on higher efficiency.

You act like averaging 30.3 PPG on 50% or 25.9 on 49% is some subpar scoring. 30.3 on 50% is better than anything Kobe has ever done in the playoffs so what's your point? That when Lebron's efficiency plummets, he's simply better than Kobe rather than on another planet?

 

[THE MACHINE]

This dude is a bigger baby than I thought. These weekly but...but...but... hypotheticals are

1) Won't get in the dunk contest because if he loses, he has to take the blame. But he can put on dunk shows every pregame to keep fans wondering
2) Was given 8-10 wide open jumpers in the finals each game and wouldnt take them because he was visibly shook and had no confidence when somebody basically said "I dare you to shoot." Now you are criticizing the best scorers in the league for taking shots .
3) If you are so confident you would put up 60-70 points on 30 shots then you should do it since that would be the best scoring option
4) Won't take buzzer beaters, which are free attempts to give your team points. You are flat out selfish if you dont attempt these shots...no excuses. Not only does he not attempt them but he dribbles out the clock and wont even pass for someone else to shoot
5) Wade only plays 1 game every two weeks and should be taking LWOP at this point and you still want to act like Spo is holding you back from scoring.
6) Give the MVP to Durant

You better than this breh.
