I was only talking about the last shot, but yes I think he could have got easier shots in the previous possessions.

It’s funny that some people always have gay porn stars on their mind…I couldn’t even think of the name of even one gay porn star, and have absolutely NO memories that would relate anything I might see or hear to gay porn, because I have no memories of gay porn.

Chicagorilla

I was shaking my head when LeBron took that crazy one footed fade away, and then was shocked that it swished through. I was thinking that was some Kobe shit, and that LeBron better not pickup THOSE habits…but god damn he was feeling it. I think he was trying to draw some weak ass contact, but the defender didn’t bite and he was in the air like “oh shit”. The guy’s arm strength is absolutely amazing, to actually shoot a perfect shot without any help from the legs, while in the air like that is ridicules…

Everyone

Can anyone name one player who is doing the shit LeBron is right now? There is no one in the nba better than him right now, so why are people hating so hardcore? What more can you ask of a guy?

you guys are so caught up with lebron “making the right play” that you are blinded by the truth. the clutch gene lebron is displaying time and time again that he does not have.

now, realize this.

great players, offensively superior players, especially ones who are on fire can and should find ways to get wins for the team.

the thing that boggles my brain is that you all who are saying it was the right play are essentially saying it was either lebron pass it or take a shot over 30,000 defenders.

false. because you cannot say for sure that the latter would have happened had he kept the ball in his hands.

let me go down the list:
carmelo
dirk
ray allen
pierce
kobe
durant
jordan
chris webber (just kidding)
bird
ginobili
jamal crawford
brandon roy
chris paul
deron williams is even getting there

the constant with all those guys? they are all able to elude the defense and create a shot out of nothing and are able to do it in the most difficult, most pressurized of situations.

now lebron james was on fire diring the final stretches of the game. making a pass to an open man is a great decision. yes. that is true. but what was haslem doing that game? what was haslem doing that week? the fact of the matter is lebron was in a zone.

now, all you who say that lebron should have made the pass, ignore the fact that lebron ALSO could have found his own shot whether it be by, i dunno, finding a way for himself to get open!

i’ve seen time and time again, ray allen get 2 or 3 screens to get an open shot to win a game. i’ve seen paul pierce hold the ball, use some fancy footwork that freezes his man and get a great look. i’ve seen carmelo jab step, spin off his man and bully his way to the rim or make a quick hesitation that allows him to raise over his man for a nice jumper. i’ve seen kobe find ways to go to the freethrow line. i’ve seen chris paul keep the ball in his hands, put his man on skates and float the ball in the hole. i don’t even need to talk about michael jordan.

the main idea here is that, yes the pass was good. it went to haslem who found his shot in his sweet spot. but lebron was on fire. he was the best athlete on the floor. it is NOT A GIVEN that he would have taken a bad shot. wthe thing you guys are avoiding is the question of “why can’t lebron CREATE a good shot for himself?” i’ve even seen allen iverson, little short 6 foot iverson elude the defense to find a great shot.

you guys are not psychics, nor am i. the thing i know for sure is that lebron is big and strong and fast. he has the tools to get a good shot. or does he? at least in the clutch.

you guys are caught up with the idea that if lebron didn’t pass he’d be taking a shot over a bunch of defenders.

if lebron was as good as history will want to write that he is, he should be able to keep the ball in his hands and create a good shot with the game on the line. ESPECIALLY when he is on….fire.

period.

in conclusion, wade is the reason the heat lost. lebron just couldn’t save the heat when he was in position to.

slick ric

i feel uncomfortable even writing your fruity name. no way in hell would i ever call another man slick. you know how i know you gay? cuz you appreciate(?) when a man comes out. why is that something to appreciate? does that turn you on?

and something else that’s sketchy.

control never denied watching gay porn. he just said he doesn’t retain any memories of it. sketchy statement right there.

how bout you two rent a motel together and watch some of slick ric’s classic films.

I have spent the last half hour dying imagining Ian under a tree while his better half is running. At least you went out there. Every Wednesday my gf heads into my gym to spin, and I have to hustle out to make it seem like I have been there the whole time she has. I used to go in with her, then head out to the donut place across the street and make it back before she finished class, but I got caught (ratted out), so I don’t do that one anymore. I just can’t lift when she’s in there. “That’s too heavy! You’re going to hurt yourself! You should be doing cardio! OK, I am leaving, gimme a kiss.” Jesus woman! I have 120lb dumbells above my face right now on a friggin incline bench! Can it wait another 3 reps?!?!! Look, all I have going for me is being kinda tall and kinda strong. Is it too much to ask to let me lift in peace?

KDiz and Chicagorilla

I’ll agree with you guys 100%. That pick and roll was a horrible play selection for the last fucking shot of a game you were just down 18 points. Wade or LeBron SHOULD have shot that ball, that situation should not have occurred. I’m sure Haslem can hit that shot ALLLL day in practice, but he shouldn’t have been in the position to. I only want Haslem taking the last shot if he hustled down an offensive rebound with a second left on the fucking clock.

LeBron made the right play, at the WRONG time. That’s a play you run in the second or third quarter…Honestly, though I can logically say he made the right choice, he really should have been a touch selfish and just drove to the rim. Who is stopping that guy when he drives? Ain’t nobody stopping that train.

Big…your gym story is fap worthy. I want to play Maroon 5 songs and have dreamy thoughts as if you were the hunky next door neighbor who is always cutting the grass without a shirt or slow mo-ing out of his pool.

“Jesus woman! I have 120lb dumbells above my face right now on a friggin incline bench! Can it wait another 3 reps?!?” hahaha

@Dime, At the beginning of the season every news outlet ran some story about coach spo going up to Oregon to tweak his offense. Look at the benefits of that decision.

So when will you guys run a story about how Scott Brooks’ offensive gameplan was inspired by NBA JAM? Coming out of timeouts, you can clearly see him calling out a play named, “Boomshakalaka”

the people who said the clippers-hornets trade was a better one, please raise your hand.
…………….come on now, don’t be shy.

WOW!!! dirk, 40 points ! in less than 29 minutes of action. you go dirk!
