You honestly think Bron has that behind the back crossover dribble to the basket in his arsenal? Lebron is a better player then Wade (for about the millionth time), he is not a better scorer. I almost don't like it when Lebron hits one of those fade away 3 pointers........it guarantees he is going to shoot one at the end of the game as the shot clock runs down.

And no, I didn't state or imply that. I stated a fact, which is that Wade took more shots in the paint. You're trying to spin that to fit your agenda

Which probably has something to do with WHY LeBron is "ignored" in the 4th. In late game situations, the Heat go with the hot player and decide amongst themselves. LeBron was pretty much in defer mode all night last night. He wasn't shooting poorly, yet he still allowed Wade to run the show. LeBron is a better scorer, rebounder, passer, shooter at all levels, and defender, yet he plays second fiddle to Wade far too often. I know Dwade is fantastic, but c'mon.

Why? Does anyone have an explantion?


Basically, all season Lebron was the go to guy most of the time.

Against PHI/BOS/CHI, Lebron was the go to guy in about 6 late, close games, and basically took just about every single big shot.

This series we've seen a change. I really think the simple answer to this is matchups, and nothing more.

Jason Kidd is guarding Wade. That is why Wade is taking over early, and that is why Wade is getting the ball in crunch time, it's the obvious mismatch.

Hey, remember when you was going on and on in that one thread, saying Lebron deferred against Chicago in that series, and then I posted Lebron's late game numbers and how many points he scored and how many times he took over games against Chicago, and then you completely ran away from the thread and NEVER posted in it again???


Man, those were good times.

Dallas is getting killed because they need to play Jason Terry 32 minutes a game to provide a secondary scoring option. Terry trying to cover Wade is the huge mismatch. Kidd on Wade is a mismatch too but he usually only draws Wade on a switch.

They're really getting killed because he's playing all those minutes and he hasnt even shot well.

Very true but I made that statement in the context of explaining why Wade has outplayed LeBron offensively.

Hey remwmber that time when you had no rebuttal in a thread because Lebron deferred to Wade so you posted another discussion to try and distract everyone.

Good times indeed.

with all of this talk about Wade being the man, I have a feeling LeBron is going to come out and force the issue.

OK I havn't watched a single second of the finals... but don't you have to be on the winning team usually to get the MVP?

Wasn't Miami only a couple points from being down 1 game to 2. This series might not be over???

Even if Dallas loses, How does Dirk NOT get the playoff MVP???

For everyone who engages TUK in debate, remember that this is the poster who ranked Pippen at #9 all-time ABOVE Michael Jordan at #10. (Take a wild guess who was #1 on his list)

All evidence indicates that he was serious.

So...yeah, just keep that in mind while trying to tell him anything.

look, as much as I don't want it to happen, Miami is going to win this series.

Dirk could average 50ppg for the series in a losing effort and they are going to give it to DWade or LeBron...just the way it is. Right now, Dwade is definitely the best player in this series

I'd argue that Dirk has been the best player in this series.

who cares, I'm just glad the media is handing it to LeRobin. I would bet anything that it's bothering him.

EDIT: love the sig quote

It's a lot closer to Miami being up 3-0 than down 1-2.

I don't know how people continue to have any discussion regarding LeBron. The ignorance and stubbornness is so immense it is absolutely pointless.

LOL at the media. All they do is talk about every little thing Lebron does, right or wrong.

You would bet anything on something you have zero basis for? Yikes, casinos would probably love you.
