He's a frontrunner, man - that's what frontrunners do.

They don't stick around for the rebuilding or retooling process; they jump ship when they think the ship is going down.

Bron Bron is an unabashed frontrunner and it's blowing up in his face.
:patrice: might be some truth to this. He is a Yankees, Bulls and a Cowboys fan. All three were great in the mid 90s when he started his teen years.

Going to Miami was the worst thing to happen to his individual game IMO. Run and gun all day on a stacked dunking at the hoop. Playing in the shytty East doesn't help either.

He has not had to go to his 2nd and 3rd moves on offense until the Finals since 2010. Just a very limited scorer

To me, this just proves LeBron never TRULY mastered the fundamentals as a kid. MJ's 3 years in North Carolina helped him tremendously because he was taught the basics of the game. And that mastery of the fundamentals helped him get more polished as he aged.

It was actually the best thing that happened to his individual game.

His game has NEVER looked better than it did in Miami. Don't get caught up in the highlight plays. His offense was at it's peak when he was there.
I'm pretty sure his loudest critics don't actually watch the games, and if they do, they totally disregard what actually happens. He could have curry's 3 point shot and Mike's mid range game right now, but if the rest of the team shoots and defends this poorly, it won't matter. Richard Jefferson was their second best player tonight and might have been in game 1 as well. If that wasn't working in the finals when he played for the Nets then it won't work 13-14 years later. Nobody wants to talk about how the Warriors finished 16 games ahead of Cleveland in the standings. The cavaliers have a lot of flaws. With LeBron not having a reliable j right now, he should be playing power forward in a small lineup, but they don't have a good center to put out there to do that with. They're a bad defense that relied on their offense all playoffs, and now their 3's aren't falling. Not sure they'll start again either. This is the best defense they've faced yet.

This and he thought he had all the answers. Dude tried to play GM and Coach and it is blowing up in his face.

And the media and his stans will still cry that he needs more help. Pathetic.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a duck.

Golden State knows exactly how to defend Lebron. And unless he starts hitting his jumper consistently this series is over in 4

All you gotta do is back up

He's gotta go back to shooting 30+ shots a game like last year's Finals. fukk worrying about his field goal percentage and trying to set up Love and Irving. At least do it for people who want to see a competitive series if not for his pride, this shyt's lame as hell.

If he doesn't trust his shot, it won't impact the defense. Therefore the role players, which is what they are, won't get open looks. He's acting like he needs them to get him open looks.

Nothing is wrong with Lebron.

If a 35 year old Richard Jefferson (no shade to him, he's an underrated player) is your second best player on the court that's a coaching problem.
