Out here in my damn drawls
But one entire season of being a good midrange and three point shooter should count right? Along with shooting over 50 percent the past few years. We know he will never be Ray Allen or Reggie Miller out there. All he needs is a respectable J and he has that now.


He's not a below average shooter at all, and I think that might be the impression that I'm giving off. His shooting numbers looked good, but if teams play him like the Spurs played him early on and stayed true to decent defensive rotations, then he is more susceptible to being flustered like he was earlier in the series.

They decided to play him this way because they didn't believe that he would light them like he did in game 7, and for a coach like Pop to back off of him until the bitter end says a lot about the perception of Lebron as a shooter (and also Pop's own ego played a huge part too). He torched them last night, but I still have doubts on whether he can :eat: like that if teams keep forcing his hand like they did

He still has work to do to make it a steady part of his arsenal to get that respect at mid and long range that Kobe gets. They never leave him alone, even on a bad night. They can't play Lebron too close because he drive, but they'd be too afraid give him the space that the Spurs gave him outta fear of a deadlier J.

Improve on that and his footwork on post ups and his game is butter. But this is just my opinion :shrug2:

Reg you my nygga..lol

But I hate Bron mayne.. sorry. I just dont like the dude. I wont recognize dude. He's a cool player. He does alot of good things. But he has a tendency to really disappear too easy in a series. They eeked one out last night. It is what it is. Home court is his savior IMO

Bruh I am a huge Bron fan and I am the first to call him out when he disappears at times and starts playing passively. But to act like every game every season Kobe MJ or Magic delivered is a farce. All great players struggle. It's about what they do to overcome that struggle that makes them great. For Magic it was getting over the mistakes he made in the 1984 Finals, for Kobe it was proving him and Shaq could win together and then proving he could win without him, for Jordan it was getting past the Pistons. But all of them have had bad moments but have had all time great moments too. And we forget about the bad when the good is in effect. So we should give Bron the same respect too. Cause even MJ had a few struggles some games those last three years in the Finals.

All great players have some weakness (including Kobe and Jordan) and most teams would rather live with any superstar taking jumpers instead of getting to the rack. Pops did the smartest and the best thing to insure that his team could win by that strategy. And Bron struggled a lot with his jumper during the series. But he was due for a big game from outside and it came at the perfect time for his team.

And When you choose to selectively stay stuck on the positive portion of things, you come off as a lebron dikkrider

That AND your history the past 11 hours of pure Bron dikk sucking. We pretty much know what "you" will say about Bron no matter what.

I smell corn....



This is what actually happened these are facts. Lebron the first 3 quarters of game 6 struggled and his team was down 10 going into the 4th. Lebron played GREAT to bring his team back and gave them a lead, but then had 3 huge turnovers that should've cost his team the finals. The Spurs choked giving Lebron another chance, Lebron then bricked a 3 and his teammates got a rebound giving him another shot which he knocked down. Lebron again missed the game tying three but then was bailed out by Ray Allen who hit a gametying 3.


amazing...I said nothing positive or negative about Bron in this thread. :heh:

I gave a clear picture about your cutting down steez you're intend on letting everyone focus on because you're extremely upset at the resulting praise heaped about a player you obviously dislike on a personal level, yet don't know.


See....I know Lebron doesnt' know me enough to invest any energy into loving him THAT much. But I do know that the same player you don't know has forced you to parse certain parts from the latest Bron narrative he carved for himself last night because you dislike him THAT much.

That's shyt isn't even GMO corn. shyt is organic hate.....

They'll say he's not Jordan and who ever does say is giving Bron the greatest compliment you can give a player. You can't compare him to his peers because he's so much better than them. KD had a 50/40/90 year and scored 30 a game and he's light years away from Bron.

So now folks are gonna throw shade on Bron by comparing him to Mike and saying he's not Mike because thats only argument they can win. Thats the same material Skip Bayless is gonna use for as Bron plays ball.

Lebron is not known to be a jumpshooter or a 3-point shooter no matter what his stats tell you. He has games where he goes off on 3's and jumpshots but he hadn't been doing that in his career consistently.

MJ, Kobe - Most skilled offensives players ever. They was known to kill you from every angle on the court. 3's, took it to the rim, all day from mid-range, post game, footwork, and also could pass the ball. They don't focus on stats the way bron does, and if so they will have video games numbers. They were both killers.

Bron - Athletically gifted. Only attributes he has is taking it to the rim, and passing ability. He's strong and fast. You won't hear lebron name as being a shooter or a killer. Once his athleticism fades he will also.


:dahell: Jordan wasnt that good from the 3, his best year hitting the 3 was the year they moved the line in. Also, early in his career MJ relied heavily on his athleticism, He really didnt develop that jumpshot until later in his career.

You're defending this man all over this site like your his wife :stopitslime:

Where did I say I didn't like Lebron? Lebron is one of my favorite players in the game and he's in my top 10. I'm just stating the positives and the negatives. You're the one that got emotional and started defending another man that doesn't know you exsist and said I was hating by stating facts that actually happened. :ufdup:

Mike came into the league with a decent mid range, he perfected it over time though

LeBron just knocked down 5 of them bytches in game 7 though.

Find that video for me okay?
They let Bron hit them. BIGGGGG difference to what MJ did. They also didn't let MJ take open jumpers. Bron had an easy game out there. He had no pressure.

Does it also make you mad that Lebron scored the highest game seven points in the modern era, and had the highest point game in these whole NBA playoffs this season?:ooh:

:pachaha:
