The LeBron James Thread

Re: The LeBron James Saga

Yeah, really, really.

I dont OMG LOL like you did earlier at negative articles....
I dont crown dude a saint at the positive ones.....

I dont pick and choose articles to blow up and downplay based off my LeFeelings on the situation. Yeah I can do that too...

Im just not that butthurt enough about the situation man, sorry...probably makes me the odd man here. Yeah, dudes got an ego, says some questionable, no stupid things...but what I see out there on the floor is bad coaching...I just see that through my basketball minds eye....

EDIT: Not to say its all Spo, but it looks as if they are out there freestyling man...lol

Who's picking and choosing articles? Pretty much everything that's come out about the Heat has been something negative so how is anybody picking and choosing and at one point has anyone gotten involved in picking and choosing things to blow up about this team? Get outta here with that nonsense.

Fact is there is MORE than bad coaching going on with this team. They are running into a lot of issues and it's more than just screaming that it's the coach's fault. The same offense has followed LeBron from Cleveland to Miami and Mike Brown is no where in sight so just chalking it up to bad coaching isn't an excuse that's going to fly anymore.

See: The last 90 pages of this thread. Get out of here about what? lol

The one thing we do agree on is that its not all coaching. Its lack of personnel, toughness, rebounding etc. But the sets they are running or lack there of are pitiful. Take of the anti Heat shades for a second and look at basketball with me, that offense they are running is a winning offense?

Re: The LeBron James Saga

So if Jordan, Magic or Bird won zero titles do you think they would still be in the same place in NBA history.

Yes, in my eyes for sure. Jordan is the gold standard that every player is measured against. Magic being able to play 5 positions and Bird being such a grimy player who was cut throat. All all-time once in a generation players. The championships were team accomplishments.

Re: The LeBron James Saga

They run every single Offensive Set in the world out there but that's not gonna solve the rebounding, depth, and toughness issue that team is having right now.

As for the last 90 pages of this thread, it's basically been ALL quotes coming from HIS mouth. FULL Quotes and not just sections of a quote to fit a argument or whatever so I can't see how that's cherry picking unless were supposed to ignore it just because it's Lebron. Don't work like that my man lol

ESPN? The network that was kissing Lebron's arse before he even got into the league? The network that helped push this whole 'King James' phenomenon over the top. The network where after he hit the shot against Orlando I had to sit and hear how it was maybe better than Jordan's shot over Ehlo, mind you the series was still 1-1 and they wouldn't even win another game. The network that facilitated 'The Decision'? Yeah, they really have it out for LeBron...right...

Re: The LeBron James Saga

Not defending LeBron at all...but let's be honest. Spo is a poor man's Mike Brown, and that says alot. Same vanilla offense but without the sweet defensive rotations.

Bron's camp wanted Mike Brown out last year, but Ferry stood by the coach. Bron and peeps relented, and I would bet that in Brons mind, the playoff meltdown last year was on Mike Brown and his decision to go with rusty Shaq...and he made sure it was indeed a meltdown, lol. Funny catch-22 that turned out to be.

I doubt Bron will ever co-exist with a coach he doesn't believe in ever again...and as usual, he and his crew of street-educated advisors are handling the situation terribly. Poor things.

Re: The LeBron James Saga

Ahhh yes, this thread wouldn't be complete without the "Blame BSPN" card being thrown out. Because everyone knows without blaming them, Lebron would still be God's Gift to Basketball and wouldn't be this huge evil that's destroying the game that many people love.

Disagree. Those players would have been great, but it is their championship moments which made them legendary. Magic against the Sixers when Kareem was hurt. Jordan's flu game. You can't sit here and say that those guys would hold the same esteem if it wasn't for these championship moments. Not to get too myopic, but that's what's separates the greats from the legends.

And look at how much flak guys like T-Mac, AI, and to a lesser extent Barkley, Ewing, Stockton and Malone get for not winning the big one. It definitely plays a role in how guys are remembered.

Well two of those things don't necessarily need to be taught(Toughness and Hustle). You either have it and WANT to do it or you don't. That has nothing to do with Coaching.
