Quit being retarded with the Shaq vs Kobe argument. ITs so easily Shaq that arguing it is stupid.

I don't usually care about this kind of stuff, but Wade has been there before. The pressure is a lot bigger than it was in the Eastern Conference Finals. He probably should be the go-to guy in this series.

But a big part of that is that he has Terry and Kidd guarding him.

LeBron's the best player in the NBA, Shawn Marion shouldn't prove to difficult of a matchup...he should be killing the finals, instead, the #2 option is going to take home finals
MVP

LeBron on any player is the best matchup, instead he prefers to defer to wade

What makes Wade a better closer?


I'll go with winning the NBA title back in 2006 as THE best player on the floor and pretty much taking over every game at the end to win that NBA finals. And with Lebron on his team he is doing it now. He SHOULD have done it in game two and they lost because he didn't.

Was Shaq better during their championship years? Yes. Who had a better career? I don't know. Remember, this is an LSU website, so I trust almost no one's opinion on this matter.

yeah, it's Wade's fault that he has had to take over the games so the Heat don't lose while Lebron is eating popcorn on the 3 point line. That makes perfect sense.


Lebron is a better shooter than Wade and he is getting forced to spread the floor. Lebron is the more versatile player and that is hurting his game in this offense.

Lebron is just a flat out better driver. He is stronger, bigger, a better passer, and doesn't take as many stupid shots while going to the rim.

that's what i don't get about this argument. if Lebron is indeed the best player in the game, he should have the ball at the end of every quarter, half, and game. It doesn't matter if Kobe is guarding him, he's supposed to be the best.

What about this one?

I guess that also makes Dirk a "choker" and the Heat get all the calls.

And I don't really get that argument. The Heat's objective is to win basketball games. Lebron is better than Wade, but Wade is really fricking good himself. You can't see how it might be advantageous for them to try to take advantage of Kidd and Terry?

Just because lebron is better than wade doesn't always make it a better matchup

Wade on terry is an easier matchup than lebron on marion

Wade and James are both in their second finals appearance.

It is stupid saying that Wade has been here before as some argument. Lebron just had to go against the fricking Spurs with a shitty team.

When Wade retires, he'll be the second best SG of all time.


1) MJ
2) Wade
3) Kobe

Lebron a better shooter?
Lebron more versatile?
Lebron a better driver? Okay. You might get that one, although this series is seriously making me question that.
Stronger? Bigger? So is Shaq. Who cares?
Better passer? Sure
Doesn't take stupid shots going to the rim?

You are a pretty funny guy. Lebron is bigger, stronger, a better passer, and sometimes better at going to the rim (except in the Finals, in which he'd rather just stand at the 3 point line and throw up hail marys).

So, essentially, your saying he's John Stockton trapped in a big black man's body. Good job. You convinced me.

Wade has been there and done it before.

LeBron has just been there.
