LeBron James

Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Lebron had to get back on d instead of complaining to the refs. Seriously, it is playoffs time.

I have seen Lebron have nerves and his teams play tight. Thats exactly how that game looked. When he says, "Im gonna be fine, Ive seen everything." That is him being defensive.

The team will look much better next game, but having Kyrie as a clutch come back kid with no conscience, was a great luxury.

I didn't see nerves. I saw disinterest. I also saw worry, but that's because he knows, as well as all of us, this team is just not good enough and even he might not be able to get them out of the East.

He has fought the structure that would make his teammates better everytime it has been tried.

When your team plays tight, the leader is responsible. He has no faith in his team, this is the result you get.
 
LeBron hasn't actually had to work hard in the first round in a long time. Sooner or later it will dawn on him that he can't breeze through games and still win. Tbf didn't think we'd need LeBron godmode in freakin April. I wouldn't even cry if we don't make the finals. This team is no 2011 mavericks

Godmode LeBron in the first round is a bad sign. If he feels he has to drag us out of the first round then he's as good as gone. He's clearly tired of doing it all and I don't blame him. Somebody has to take some weight off his shoulders *cough*Love*cough*...

He's as good as gone anyway. 2-3 teams have better options for him to win now and be good in the next 3-4 years like Philly
 
LeBron wouldn't have survived in this physical era.



Michael Jordan Attacks Softness, Lack of Competitiveness in Modern Blackjack Players

Guaranteeing they couldn’t “hack it” back in the ’80s and ’90s, former NBA star Michael Jordan spoke out Tuesday blasting the weakness and lack of drive in modern blackjack players. “These soft and coddled blackjack players today, who come into the Bellagio and stand on a jack and a five, they could never compete with the guys I went up against every single night,” said Jordan, complaining that today’s competitors lacked the killer instinct necessary to thrive in the clutch and single-handedly take over a card game when they were down by 20 or 30 grand. “Blackjack used to be about toughness. There was one night I busted out on 20 straight hands, but I kept grinding. These young players just expect to be handed a 21, they don’t want to fight for it. Back in the day, I knew hardcore guys who would hit on 17 all the time—they had grit and just wanted to dominate.” Jordan added that despite being 55 years old, he was confident that he could take any blackjack player in the world one-on-one.

LeBron looked extra sprightly, bouncy, and quick tonight. He probably didn’t think he had to go into God mode this early, but here it is. On his breakaway dunk from behind the half-circle, he easily got way up (look at where his head was) and to the rim.

Now please, somebody else do something the rest of these playoffs.

To be fair, LeBron had to be pretty godly in the 1st round last year

32-13-6 in game 1 to win 109-108.

41-13-12 in game 3 to win 119-114 after being down 26...

Playoff LeBron is just usually pretty godly. Game 1 of this series was kind of a weird outlier in some ways, and we still almost came roaring back after being down 20...and maybe if we had a Kyrie to hit a few more shots during the rally we go on to win game 1 in the final minute.

Also helped LBJ when in game 2 Kyrie dropped 37 in a 6 point win. Made things a lot easier.

We need to at least give a guy an opportunity to do what KYrie did. Whether it's Clarkson or Hood or even Hill at times...pretty much by committee, but we have to give one of the chance to have that big game we would get from Kyrie here and there. If we play them all just some, and distribute their shots evenly...none of them will even have a chance to have a big game...and it's gonna have to be by design because obviously none of those guys are naturally that 25 point scorer. Clarkson when he's hot and with an adult is promising, Hood has all the tools but I'm almost scared to give him the volume and get a couple 4-17's or some shit.

So he's def. gonna feel the difference from Kyrie. Also kinda sucks not being able to have LBJ come in with that super 2nd unit at the start of the 2nd quarter to lay rest to everyone elses backups for the first 4 minutes of every 2nd quarter. But that's just now how the minutes have been this year mainly because of our guard issues.

Please...get as far as you can this year....then convince LBJ to stay, and get Beal or McCollum with that pick.....I think we're legit title contenders any year with this current team plus a legit 20-25 PPG guard. We have a few holes we've filled that last years team with Kyrie greatly lacked. Kind of annoying how they didn't link up.

Absolutely magnificent game from LeBron. Goes on a long long list of playoff greatness.

Cept for that part where he couldn't score on Bogdanovich( JUST KIDDING ALERT. JUST. KIDDING. IM JUST KIDDING I PROMISE DONT HURT ME. GAME WAS OBVIOUSLY AN ABSOLUTE PERFORMANCE FOR THE AGES ALL AROUND. SERIOUSLY. THIS WAS 100% A JOKE.)
