They moves really well without the ball against Houston. You don't see enough of that consistently.

I agree the 2011 Finals is the worst part of LeBrons resume, but what he did the next 2 Finals made up for that IMO.

I dont understand what Harden has done to be considered clutch. He has shot under 40% in his 4 of his last 5 playoffs series. He gets his points, but he has been far from clutch.

I was joking about Harden, although this year he has hit more clutch shots than anyone.

I disagree about Lebron making up for it. If he would have just played bad it would have been one thing. He quit / played terrified / didn't care....in the finals. That is inexcusable. I was a big Lebron defender until that point, but as someone who tries to be objective I had to jump off the bandwagon. How people forget about all of that is beyond me.

kind of hard to have a great team in a loaded conference when your most expensive player is injured/the the worst statistical player in the league.

can you imagine what the pels would do with a SOLID sg? I'm not even talking great. put someone like afflalo in there and the pels are cooking.

Fair Enough.

Im not gonna let one series define a player espcially when he has had so many great ones before and after it. I disagree with the notion that he didnt care in the finals. I agree he became passive and scared to fail, but I think saying he didnt care isn't accurate. If anything he cared to much.

You have to look back at the 2009 series against Orlando (elimination game) and especially the 2010 series vs Boston, mainly game 5. People tried to say it was because of Delonte West...whatever. It was two years in a row going into 2011 that he had been called a quitter. I tried defending him back then, even though he said after he lost that he had "spoiled" his fans with his play. The best player in the world shouldn't say stuff like that.

Nah, not only was he scared, he acted as if he didn't give a damn in every post game press conference. Dude was in the NBA Finals and had a nonchalant attitude even after losing.

I don't dislike the guy for no reason. It was his attitude after those losses that really turned me off, and say what you want but that 2011 Finals is the strangest thing I have ever seen from a player regarded as the best in the world. He didn't just play bad...that's why, to me, it sticks with him. shite, people quickly forget against the Spurs that he turned the ball over 2 times in game 6 in the final minute before Ray Allen bailed his arse out.


I give props to him for what he's done. The game against Detroit in the playoffs is one of the best performances I've ever seen. He went in beast mode against OKC. He still acts like a premadonna though and is currently acting like he did the city of Cleveland a favor instead of busting his arse.

Yeah we could debate this stuff until we are blue in the face. He also hit a huge 3 in the last minutes of Game 6 that kept them within striking distance.

I absolutely agree with this. Im ready for his Honeymoon phase with them to be over so he can get back to focusing on winning championships. He needs to run the point for CLE and allow Kyrie and Love to be the scorers.

What do y'all think about someone being in the IR spot that is healthy? Currently there are no rules against it, but it seems kind of bush league to keep them there once they are healthy.
