Do you really consider Lebron a closer??

Well that's true too, but a lot of people don't want to admit that because Damon Jones isn't a well-known star.

Exactly, if mike brown would give him minutes he deserves he could be a all star and mvp candidate.

Of course Lebron is a closer but if you have to carry your team all alone every minute you're on the court and got little help from your team you get a problem somewhere down the road . It will wear you down.

Why doesn't Mike Brown always put D.Jones in close games? has he ever missed a clutch shot? i've never seen it

he doesnt like Amon Jones

That's true Mike Brown thinks having Lebron Ames take jump shots instead of Damon Jones is a good strategy. He just doesn't see graetness when it's right in front of him...

Mike Brown will play Damon Jones in playoffs. He's done the same thing the last 2 years.

Damon will be hitting the 3 ball very well and then all of sudden he'll be completely out of the rotation for the last month of the season. But Mike Brown puts him in during the playoffs...the only problem is, he will have no flow and wont hit any shots (like last year).

Thats how good of a coach Mike Brown is.

I would like to see a stat of how many game tying, game winning, and go ahead shots LeBron has made in the last 24 seconds of games. If I had to bet, I would guess around 8. Some just off the top of my head...Portland, Utah, Phoneix, Milwaukee, Orlando (in OT), Lakers.

I'm probably missing a few too. If thats not being a good closer, I dont know what is.

Well, the Cavs have by far the most 4th quarter comebacks in the league.

So unless you think it was Damon Jones doing all that heavy lifting, ya, LeBron's probably a pretty decent closer.

I agree, I think he'd make a perfect second option to my boi Nenad Krstic, plus I think Marcus and Sean Williams could take Lebron's came to another level.

Actually though LeRydee23 made me change my opinion of 'Bron. Bron is clutch, just not as clutch as Kobe Bryant.

I really wonder what are you going to do if he becomes a Brooklyn Nets player.

Brooklyn Nets just sounds fantastic. Ideally, I'd like LeBron to stay a Cav and I think he will. If he went to "Brooklyn" though, I wouldn't mind so much.

i bet if lebron played on a team with tim duncan or kg...he wouldnt nearly get the love that he is getting now

Lebron is so overrated it's not even funny. If he was even half as good as his hype and followers make him out to be he would at least have a better conference record than 27-23 in the East.

How do you figure that? Did Kobe get less hype (ie something like becoming a starter in the All-star game without even being a starter on his own team) because he played with Shaq?
