You just said Lebron isn't a heady basketball player because he isn't 11/11(or whatever) for Championships. I can say this without feeling like a dick. You're a fricking moron.

He was far and away the best athlete in the Spurs-Heat series. The Heat had the greatest 3 point shooter of all time, a better cast, and more $ in salaries.
So, what was the reason that they needed God's luck to win? It wasn't the intelligence differential? What was it then?
If Lebron had the greatest bball mind in the world, he should have been able to read pop and teach the great talents of bosh and d-wade to shut down the spurs key players, but they didn't have much strategy in that regard, did they? No, they didn't, because he isn't a genius.
He is getting tutored by Ray Allen on when to shoot, it's not that hard to understand.

You should quit playing 2k. This is the real world. No one was expecting the Heat to dominate.

No one was expecting the heat to dominate because the spurs have the best strategy and approach to the game in the nba. When the Heat beat the spurs, it was clear that timmy was just gassed and lebron and wade and Bosh were running all over everyone with their athleticism. Examples - Danny Green getting open looks was strategy. Bosh blocking Danny Green's shot to win the game was athleticism. Lebron beating timmy 1 on 1- athleticism.
The physical talent differential is clear as day and so is the intelligence differential. If Lebron had the mental edge on every single player, there wouldn't be a contest because he is that physically gifted.
I'm done spelling it out to you. Sorry you don't understand basketball. Sorry you can't see all the dunks and explosive stepbacks lebron hits in the paint. Goodnight dumb guy. You already refuted my argument completely with your talk of "2k".

Then how did the Pacers take the Heat to seven? LeBron covers so many flaws that the Heat have. He was their best wing and post defender. He was their facilitator and scorer. He was their best rebounder. Take away LeBron and they're no better than then the Knicks.
I'm sorry you weren't able to enjoy the series as much as others did. You call it athleticism that made those plays. I say coaching Pop did a fantastic job of getting Green and Neal open. Spoe did a fantastic job in making sure Green wasn't to see another open three. There are tons of FA athletes. Athletes don't win games by just being "athletic." Otherwise the Spurs wouldn't have gotten past the Warriors or even finished as the 2 seed. Austin Rivers is a pretty good athlete but we both know he isnt a great NBA player.

You just compared Austin Rivers's athleticism to the 6'8" 250, able to spin like a ballerina while dribbling and never get injured LBJ.

Coach K said he's the smartest basketball player he's ever coached. But yeah you're probably right I doubt he has a good basketball IQ

How do i know that without a link?
Posted on 2/13/14 at 2:01 am to MrBlue105
Lol. Man, you just keep twisting and turning. Could you deflect harder bro? What's size got to do with athleticism? Is there some type of algorithm you know that no one else knows that factors in weight, "athleticism"*, likeliness to injury and ability to spin?
So since Rose is small, he isn't athletically superior to, say, Blake Griffin? Griffin can dribble, spin, jump, etc. Plus he's tall.
* Athleticism is a pretty broad term.

Deflect? For a wing, ball handling player LBJ is the greatest athlete of all time. For physical gifts, there is no comparison on the basketball court. He's almost as big as David West and can cut and move his feet and body like cp3 and jump like d rose. You really don't get it?
There are not FA athletes like that on the market. There aren't any.
ETA- and i'm guessing the other guy can't find a link about coach K saying bron bron is the SMARTEST PLAYER ever

quote:Lebron ranks 7th in 3 point field goal %...on his own team. Being the best player in the game doesn't make you the best shooter. You're talking about a guy who bricked two 3 pointers in the NBA Finals in an elimination game and got bailed out by tipped rebounds and Ray Allen.
Disagree, I'd much rather force someone to shoot the ball than the best player in the world.
