    Agreed. He either dominates majority of the game en route to a blow out or really just disappear in close games. I guess that's the biggest difference between him, Kobe and MJ. The latter thrives on close games.

      Heat fans better hope there's no game 7.  Make sure to get job done in Indiana.

    yup, it's his trend since his Cavs days. the game has been won and then comes the early celebrations w/ the in game dancing and silly shenanigans. He thrives on it. He has brought this over to Miami - far less immature (on rileys watch) but the same elements are still there. 

    It's an aspect of his game nobody has really addressed in the media. Lebron is better off having tough, grind it out close games to toughen him up mentally rather than these easy wins. These sort of games that we see tonight are actually more dangerous than good for Lebron & Miami.

    As i type he easily attempts a 3 w/ out even thinking about it up 20 pts already. If the game was on the line their would be major hesitation and plenty of passing.

    It would be an absolute disaster if the league fail to have Miami advance. If there was a game 7 the officiating is there to lend a helping hand.

    This is very true because teams that shoot 33% from the field usually beat teams that shoot 62%

    lol. it's a critique, an observation - if ya can't handle it then do not join the conversation. It's not like i'm lying!!

    And hho gives a fuck who it is wether it's Lebron, Kobe, Nash or a nobody like James Jones it's a valid observation. Take off your heat/lebron glasses, grow some nuts and come at me with an open mind

    u can smell these lebron fans a mile away.

    Hate or like what i'm saying is valid. Tight games he loses his nuts not even looking to be aggressive as an example in game 3 of this series, at the end of the all star game where Kobe berated him for not attempting a shot and last season in the finals are just some examples.

    U egg heads can continue your "Hate" "Hater" redundant retorts but it does not address the on going issues.

    Game 1 was a close game and Lebron dominated down the stretch. Heat were rarely if ever covering the spread during the entire game, but covered at the end because Lebron was unstoppable.

    He has done it many times but he has disappeared many times to.

    And you can smell LBJ haters and critics a mile away too

    Becuase they sound like a broken record

    1.   Its all about the decision   (well...its everyones right to choose the team they want to go to....see Melo....see D Howard drama.....drama to soon unfold with D Williams...etc..etc,,,,).....this is overkill....tell me another player in NBA history that changed teams and as a result MILLIONS of DOLLARS went to charity as a result

    2.  He is not clutch.......where did this BS get created.......my opinion...is ESPN 1st Take.....Skip  HATER Bayless is the original hater of LBJ and his rhetoric over the past 3 to 4 years nonstop on that show from 10 am to 2 pm or so....it airs then reairs when nothing else is on TV....has been nonstop debate and hate on LBJ.....the real deal is ....how clutch is Kome....Melo....and others.....folks do not make 50% of these shots at the end and lately Kobe has sucked in the clutch....clutch is suibjective and can be twisted to whatever folks want it to mean....b/c when you look @ everything the NBA has defined as relevant to the game (pts, rebs, assts, steals, blocks, etc.etc...) LBJ is superior to every player in the league....hence the haters created something that they can track and ADJUST to fit their hate narrative

    LBJ is the reason the Heat flipped Indy from a 2 - 1 series lead to a 2 - 3 series deficit......and leave it to the haters to say.....if LBJ hadn't been so GOOD and DOMINANT...he would of folded

    Haters always try to change the narrative......folks the narrative here is that LBJ put up a historical once in 50 years performance in game 4 (40 pts 18 boards 9 assists 2 steals and 2 blocks)....PERIOD

    and then backed it up by nearly getting a dominant triple double in Game 5 with 30 pts..etc...etc...etc..

    ALL WHILE taking the Pacers leading scorer out of the game with his DEFENSE

    so many ways this man impacts a game....but the Haters (skip and fans) constantly think scoring is the only factor that matters

    News flash folks....there are four ways to control and impact a game

    Points....LBJ does this

    Rebounds/Defense......LBJ does this

    Assists....LBJ does this

    Leadership....LBJ does this (on offense as faciltator and best defender on team)

    Tempo......LBJ does this....by getting out on the break and being the lead ball handler for the heat throughout the game

    All this and HATERS want to talk about clutch......which is nowhere in the NBA dictionary....no award is given out for this mythical hater created to make non lebron fans feel better about themselvels

    What's your point? 34 pts, 10 reb, 7 ast in a CLOSE game. Yeah, he missed the game winner...but that was one of the few bad things he did all night.  Might I remind you he fouled out Paul Pierce as well and grabbed the offensive rebound that gave Miami the last shot of the game.....but go ahead and keep hating

    only Lebron can be 34-10-7 in a close/thriller game and still be criticized.

    People on this forum either don't know shit about basketball or they watch too much Skip Bayless
