nba in game thread was gold. So many holding onto hope lebron was gone fail. Then he makes game saving block, then game winning 3 they all melting or vanished


That shite was so predictable. Opposing player drives, goes up soft, gets blocked by Lebron. Lebron runs from the baseline, gets the pass at the wing, curls around to the top for an open shot, makes it. He couldn't hit a jumper all game, and hits the game winner. The NBA is so predictable; the Cavs and Warriors are playing in the Finals. Lebron did play like trash in the late stages of the third, early fourth, but, he did what star players do.

That will go down as the biggest head scratcher of all time. I'll never understand how that happened.

Think that is off for LeBron.

Basketball reference has him at 6/13 with those parameters, including tonight.

Once it becomes a meme, truth is irrelevant.

Meh, we really don't know that. Regardless, losing Kyrie was far worse.

He had 44 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. If he can rack that up playing like trash at all, maybe he is the GOAT, because that's a high, high bar.

Ignorance. I hate when anybody says X team was better without y ( really good player). It’s straight BS. LBJ got zero rest in that series bc he was the only player you could run O through. Cle’s depth was depleted and guys were wearing out but yea losing a 6’10 3 point threat is a good thing

I'd have to put Larry Bird up there as one of the most clutch players in history.

If the Cavs were down by 1, 2, or 3 and not tied, who would Lebron have passed to and been pissed at when they missed the shot after he made the “right basketball play?”

Everybody—even Lebron—wants to take the last 2nd shot when you’re tied. Wants to kick a last second 49 yarder when you’re tied, wants to come up bases loaded with 2 outs in the 9th when you’re tied. All reward, no risk. Fewer want to be in those situations when losing.

Without diving further into those Jordan/Lebron stats, I would bet Jordan has a significantly higher percentage of last-second attempts while actually losing than LBJ. He was much less scared to fail.
