Well he is hurting his team. Why do you think they were better with him on the bench that on the court for nearly the whole year? I can take a Good guess and say it’s bc he is taking a shite load of plays off.

Not sure what you are saying here? Are you saying the Cavs are a better team with Lebron on the bench? Or just better defensively?

They were better with him on the bench 90% of the season. It’s was only in the last week or two did they finally bc better with him on the court than off.


Now compare that to this:

James Harden leads the playoffs in Deflections and is 3rd in Loose Ball Recovered.

It doesn't matter what he does or doesn't have.

Watch them play, and form an opinion on why the Cavs lost or won.

This isn't hard.

He is human that is why he looked tired.

He also has to be emotionally fatigued.

It's an excuse the media is putting out there.

If Cavs lose, it's the tired story

If Cavs come back to beat Boston, they go back to sucking his dick.

They win either way

Yeh, the media has always been about only propping up LeBron and not hammering him for idiotic things


Your boy MJ was lucky to play in the ERA where the media only showed the good

His team sucks and he knows it. This time he's not 23 to carry them.

I still am not sure what you are saying Boom.

As for Harden, I mean maybe he’s finally giving some effort on defense? That’s all that shows to me. Harden is probably the most famous awful defender in the NBA right now.

He's giving it one hell of an effort, though.

Harden was the best post defender in the whole nba. The ones who say James don’t play d are the same ones saying Kobe Bryant was the most clutch player and all the other nonsense narratives that have no basis in fact.

You need to remember they had 3 days off before Game 3, helping Lebron rest up. That was followed by having only one day off, game, one day off (which was a travel day), game.

He’s 33 and plays a ton of minutes and his usage is incredibly high. I get him being tired.

Again, I've thought of that. He's done it many times before though.

Is your stance that he will be tired for the rest of the series? He will have only one day rest for the rest of the series with that day being a travel day.

The media is the one pushing the fatigue issue. Stars receive the benefit of the doubt which is the same reason why the announcers like to speculate that Steph is still injured whenever he does poorly. To Lebron’s credit, he shut down the rumor that he was under the weather and dispelled the notion of fatigue playing a role in his performance. It’s pretty obvious that Lebron looks lethargic at times, but he’s not the one making this an issue or complaining.

Not to mention his season hasn't ended until June for the past decade.

If you're simply wanting to know how people feel about Lebron's energy level, why are you framing questions like this?

Is it your stance? That's a pretty aggressive way to ask that

What's your stance?

Would be a good argument if I asked Whay does Lebron get tired?

However, that's not what I asked

The implication is simple, really. The body has limits. He is human after all.
