I feel bad for LeBron, but c'mon. There was whole OT left of ball to play. I can understand if JR's boneheadedness cost them the game, but you got a whole other quarter left to play. LeBron got the same looks in OT as he did in regulation. He still got the switch he wanted when Curry was guarding him in OT. Golden State didn't do anything drastically different in OT than what they did in regulation. LeBron had the exact saw opportunities in OT as he did in regulation. What changed? You cant just excuse LeBron's lack of aggression in OT by blaming JR. You got the whole OT to right the wrongs of the team, and you did nothing to change it. No aggression at all while Curry was on you in OT.

:dahell:

His lil princess hissy fit extended from the 4 minutes on the bench after regulation, all the way thru the entirety of overtime... They didn't have a chance....I question who is the emotional leader of that team in the sense that draymond is for the warriors... Apparently it was Richard Jefferson in years prior... Only person who I could even envision doing it this year would've been Wade had he had time to grow into it...sure as fukk ain't Lue or Love ...I assumed that's the sole reason Kendrick Perkins was brought on, but he doesn't seem to do shyt but get pressed by a different warrior every game :mjlol:

They didn't have a single person on the team to attempt to get LeBron checked back in mentally and try and win the game

Most of you fakkits in here cant even handle taking a L in a proper debate without getting in your feelings, let alone handle being pressured by another poster.

Seeing y'all criticize lebron for being mad at this very moment with whats at stakes, is PURE COMEDY

Nba fans are way more on the cult of personality tip than fans of other sports.
One player effects a larger outcome of the game than in the NFL where offensive players control one side of the ball and defensive players control the other. LeBron fans(and haters) alike convey this point more than anyone else. Why wouldn't NBA fans be on that tip?

:skip:

When he does right, he gets all the credit(as he should) and when he does wrong, most of the focus will be on him. He had a legendary performance tho. But NFL fans don't have much more depth themselves. Narratives and legacy run the gamut of talk when it comes to certain teams(IE the Pats and any team with a veteran QB).

That should've been Lue's job. Lue seems timid and bewildered at times. LeBron should've stayed in Miami where there's a system of accountability in place amongst the coaches and players. All LeBron had to do in Miami was play ball and let Spo/Pat and the staff do the rest.

:mjgrin:

Coaching LeBron is literally driving Lue towards a nervous breakdown... attempting to console and engage Bron in that moment is likely one of his biggest fears in life and would've triggered some kinda episode where they lost him for the rest of the finals

That accountability you speak of is one of the main reasons he soured on the heat in the first place though ain't it? Had him hiding from Riley at weddings and shyt lol

this why i hate the bron rings argument nikka never had a fukking competent coach they always giving him 1st year/rookie/overseas experiment type coaches none of his coaches ever have playoff experience.. tye lue deserves just as much blame as jr fukking idiot :snoop:
Blatt was a damn good coach, but lebron didnt want to listen. If the argument was you didnt have kyrie and love, then why fire blatt? Lebron doesnt want to be held accountable to a coach. He wants control. It's why he left miami, because Riley doesnt play that

Blatt was mainly fired cause he was also beefing with K.Love.

Blatt had love sitting out whole 4th quarters and shyt. How people forgot that and decide to put all the blame on bron ? :dahell:

Y’all really mad Bron wasn’t consoling dude in the heat of the moment of a crucial game 1 of the NBA Finals against a god tier team? Some corny responses in here and especially the replies on Twitter. Talking about not a good leader like this shyt defines that as a whole. This ain’t rec league.

All them cats was messed up shyt happens. Bron did his best to keep that shyt moving in those pressers though.
Word you don't console a dude for that bonehead of a mistake. That's encouraging more fukkery.

A to Z shyt...no he didn’t need to console JR nor did he need to completely shirk his teammates and isolate himself when they still had OT to play...he completely shutdown and checked out...which is a shame given a historic performance from him...JR made an a$$hole play...but as fukked up as it is to say we sometimes expect that from him...LBJ’s response to it tho was disappointing and pretty much sucked the life out that team

He's clearly being triple-teamed here by Curry, Durant, and Draymond, and all you can say is that Steph is on him? :why:

And not only is Draymond the DPOY, Durant is a 7' forward who averaged 2 blocks/game this year and literally stopped Lebron in the final seconds the last time they played. :snoop:




You think that the perfect play is for Lebron to drive into the heart of a triple-team involving two elite defensive bigs, rather than pass to the open guy cutting under the basket. :dahell:

The play Lebron made was so perfect that the other team fouled an 80% shooter on purpose with a one point lead in order to stop it.


It literally shocking how stupid some of ya'all are regarding basketball. :heh:

Most people dont know shyt about basketball. He wasn't triple teamed. Steph was gonna foul him. No matter what you about him making the perfect play they lost. The perfect play was him driving strong with steph on him.
