What did you expect from LeBron?

I am really wanting to ask you Heat fans, what did you expect before the game for LeBron? Did he rise up to the occasion? You expected less/more?

Quite honestly he corresponded to what I thought he would do/had to do for the 1st game.

But I'm telling you, I expect him to get super agressive next game, cause now the Heat have their back against the wall. I expect greatness next game. Something like game 4 vs Indiana or game 6 vs Boston. Something like 40-10.

The thing now is, unlike indiana or boston..this time around you got someone who will at least match or come close to lebron.Thats kevin durant.This is why its vital wade or bosh to step up.

I dont know, I am awaiting for thursday already.Its a must win now.

we sometimes forget he is an human. he has been playing without a significant rest for games. he is both physically and mentally exhausted i think.
lebron can always put 40-10-9 like numbers, but it is a long series and he should save his energy for the games where it is most needed. he should get his teammates involved though. it must be an team effort.

i think he will step up more in the second game and will win us the game.

LeBron played well. But honestly....He missed some easy shots as well. Some open jumpers and some baskets close to the hoop.

What that tells me is......If he gets enough rest....LeBron might average 34/35 this series. Will that result in Wins? Idk. I hope so.

LeBron's play has been more than enough throughout the entire playoffs. You can't always expect him to have outstanding performances, he's gonna miss some shots, he's gonna have average performances, but overall, he's been great and has delivered all we could ask for. We have a couple of problems, LeBron is not one of them.

LeBron and Chalmers played at the level I expect them to. Both guys could play better but their production was good enough to give us a chance in most games. LBJ could have shot a little more efficiently though.

Battier went above and beyond. Over the duration of his contract I'm not sure he will have more than 4-5 games like that again scoring wise. Season high in points for him.

UD was alright. Great job on the boards in that 1st half. We need a bit more offense from him. Hopefully the refs ease up on weak a** fouls.

That game, at least from an offensive perspective, was on Wade and Bosh. They were really pathetic and better pick up their play or our season is going to be over real fast.

At this point I expekt him to have an outstanding game in every contest to give us a chance to win. He must start making his jumpshots as he isnt stoppable within the painted area. sadly okc won with kd having a great game in the 4th. thats where lebron must be great. Period!
wade cant get it done anymore

This. Only LBJ can drop 30 and clean up the boards, and the media will still crucify him for not scoring as many pts in the 4th as their new masteurbating material, "Kid Clutch Humble Clutch So Humble Clutch Small Market do it the right way humble Kid Clutch" did.

There was a point there in the third where him attacking got them a 6 or 7 point lead and I honestly thought the Heat could take the lead for good.....but then they reverted back to bad shots, and jumpers that bailed the D out.

That is on James and Wade (cause he put up some porous shots to kill momentum), but its on the coach too.
