notice how the boring label started popping up once lebron started winning rings? no one ever called him boring in cleveland:troll:


the main difference between bron and kobe is that bron can play his efficient brand of 28, 9, 9 on 60% whenever he wants, or can chuck and go for 40 or 50 if he pleases.

Only Hollinger ass dudes obsess about efficiency. At the end of the day, basketball is entertainment, people don't buy tickets hoping to see the most efficient game. This matters to players I guess but what's so special about it as a fan?
you kobe stans always downplay efficiency and act like its nothing. But if kobe had good efficiency and lebron didn't it'd be one of your main arguing points and you guys would always talk about it

You're dumb as fukk :dead:

Bron, Bosh and Wade are taking about 4-5 less shots per game than they used to when they played alone. And the shots they do take are easier because they don't have to force anything playing with each other and defenses can't collapse on them without leaving 1 of the 3 open. This is grade school stuff here.

Only Kobe and Iverson stans dont care for efficiency.

If their boy goes for 31 points on 11 for 33 FG they're celebrating.

Remember back in the early 2000s when nikkas was scoring 40 and 50 point games every other night entertaining us with crazy shots. Lunch room debates about whose the best Kobe, AI, or T-Mac. nikkas would be going in on who has the better jumper, did the sicker move last night, etc. :wow:

Now we're supposed to praise nikkas for their shooting percentages. :comeon: What has the NBA come to? Take me back to the 00s, I don't find this new NBA where efficiency is seen as some holy grail. I'd like LeBron alot more if he kept taking shots and scored 50 a night rather than just settling to shooting 50%.

50 point games are more exciting than 30 points on 60% shooting from layups and open 3s.
Every nikka h name has to hobble on and of courts now a days because of that body killling play...lebron moves better now then he did when he first got in the lwague and has the ability to play hero ball if he needs to. Thing is he is the most efficient player going, he created his own lane basically where as jordan bred the hero ball scorer era...

this is where watching the games comes in play

I watch almost every Heat game and Bron is NOT a great 3 point shooter. He just is very smart about picking his spots. He usually only takes good looks. And usually only at his sweet spots.
Get mad at players taking the best and smartest shots, brehs

His most efficient season overall was in 08-09, if you're just talking FG% then sure it went up, but it was also going up every year of his career and he shot over 50% from the field his last year in Cleveland.

I'm just talking about that.

Bron jumped up 6.3 percentage points, Wade jumped up 2.3 percentage points, and Bosh jumped up 1.5.

Playing together has made all three more efficient. The numbers just told me what my eyes already saw.

Maybe because he had to take more difficult shots because of the lack of talent around him....now it would be stupid to do that when you have others who can make shots...you say CONSERVATIVE others my say SMART...:yeshrug:

He had no choice back then. His shot seclection was basically everywhere 'cause he was the best player at everything on those Cavs teams. I remember those wild ass 3's and jumpers he used to make during those Cleveland days. Now it's as if he has a role.

:dead: at this nikka typing what he was just arguing against two minutes ago.

I don't know what you're talking about. Nothing I've said in this thread has been a contradiction.

Meanwhile...yo bytch ass still ducking me and changing the subject cause you couldn't prove me wrong. :umad:

As I said. :camby:
