Re: The LeBron James Thread

4-0 without Wade, 5-4 with Wade this year.

Re: The LeBron James Thread

Pretty much. Lebron still doesn't know how to play with Wade.

Well duh, it's pretty obvious when you have no off the ball game.

Both Wade and James are not guys who are going to make plays off the ball. Which is why they will never win a title when they fail to run a real offense. That is, unless, LeBron or Wade learn how to become sharp shooting 3 point specialists.

I was watching SC earlier and they showed a bit of a Vernon Davis interview and man, he's got some serious LeBron hairline action going on.

Well they didn't necessarily fail miserably running one of the worst offenses I've seen to deep in the playoffs since the AI Sixer.....

That's because their defense was incredible, and they got out and ran.

When they played a team that was making shots and getting back on defense/could protect the rim, they were totally screwed.

Drewski, I think the Heat would be better off trading Wade for Howard. LeBron, Bosh and Howard is a dynasty for YEARS...Wade, Bosh and Howard is a dynasty until Wade's crash style tendencies catch up to him, which could be a year from now or 4 years from now.

Re: The LeBron James Thread

One of the biggest reason the Heat are so good without Wade is because the floor gets spread out. Notice how double teams are useless vs LeBron last night. One of the things I never understood last year in the finals. Is why did the Heat go away from the Wade-LeBron pick and roll/pop? It was beyond effective. I kind of still think this might happen down the line. But Wade might have to come off the bench eventually. They both are not going to be spot up shooters anytime soon. Just give Wade starter minutes off the bench.

I think if anyone is going to get traded it will be Wade. LeBron is younger and worth more in the long run.

Yeah but Magic would never take Wade for Dwight.

Re: The LeBron James Thread

Your right... And that's why a trade like that wouldn't happen. Not even Bosh for Dwight would happen. Well unless they can get some other team to give up major parts for Bosh.

People bring up trade and I laugh. Because the Heat made it to the finals. Won game 1, lost game 2 after being up 17, Then came back and won game 3. Then lost the rest of the series. They beat some of the better teams in the east. The only team in my opinion that might give the Heat a run for their money is OKC at this point. I'm sorry I think the Sixers are playing great right now. But I still don't think they can beat the Heat in a 7 games series right now. Just my opinion.

[Drewski]

I agree jeebs but Dwight would be a better fit for that team than Lebron, because Bron and Wade don't complement one another. It will never happen obviously but from a basketball standpoint? The Heat were a few games away last year,might have had the ring with Dwight who had carried a far lesser ORL team that overachieved to the finals

Hmmm... what about that red team from the Midwest?

I can't wait for this game is a couple of weeks....

I think CHI is MIAs biggest hurdle in the East

Re: The LeBron James Thread

Don't get me wrong the Bulls are a very good team. Me not mentioning was no dissrespect to them at all. I just feel match up wise to the Heat. They couldn't beat them in a 7 games series either. I might be putting my foot in my mouth come this post season time lol. But match up wise. The Bulls don't spread the floor enough to be the Heat. Rose is going to have average 30 10 to beat them in my humble opinion (He only made more than 10 field goals in the game they won last year). The teams that beat the Heat usually shoot the 3 ball very well. And defend the paint as well too.

Zone defense + 3 point shooting = Miami loss.
