was LeBron told to play with less emotion after game 2?

I wonder if LeBron was told to be less emotional and to not do his usual celebrations after big plays after Miami blew the big lead in game 2.

I think it would be a mistake to tell him to change all of a sudden.

LeBron has always played with a lot of emotion. The celebrating after big plays is what pumps him up and makes him the player he is.

If you want him to change, tell him to change over the summer but not all of a sudden in the middle of the finals because it could throw him off his game.

I don't know. Maybe he wasn't told to change but I don't recall him being as emotional the past 2 games.

I don't know about that, but the image of him sitting on the floor under the basket in Game 3 when they were cleaning up some liquid was weird.

Couldn't this have been put in another thread - maybe the PG thread. Idle speculation.

LeBron (Wade & Bosh too) do their "celebrating" only on the home floor. The most I've seem them do on the oppositions floor is the stare down. Don't worry, the emotion will be back when he reaches South Beach :)
