If LeBron James is who he says he is

[imchillin]

Hope wade will be present all game tonight.

[golightly]

I dont get it. Why are so many Heat fans saying LeBron has done everything possible to win games?

LeBron's stats in the last 5min of each game plus overtimes this series:

Game 1: 3pts, 0asts, 2rbs, 1-2fg, 1-2ft
Game 2: 6pts, 0asts, 1rb, 0-3fg, 6-6ft
Game 2 OT: 4pts, 1ast, 3rbs, 1-1fg, 2-4ft
Game 3: 0pts, 0asts, 0rbs, 0-2fg, 0-0ft, 1 to
Game 4: 4pts, 0asts, 0rbs, 1-3fg, 1-2ft (played 4min)
Game 4 OT: 0pts, 0asts, 0rbs, 0-2fg, 0-0ft, 1to (played 3min)
Game 5: 2pts, 0asts, 1rb, 1-3fg, 0-0ft

Totals in 31min: 19pts, 1ast, 7rbs, 2tos, 4-16fg, 10-14ft

Hes hit just 4fgs in 5 games + 2 overtimes.

In Game 5, he pretty much just sat behind the 3pt line for the final 5min and watched his team fail.

Without Lebron, we're not even in these games. You see what happens the moment he sits. Anyone questioning Lebron's effort is a blithering fool. There is no ifs, ands or buts about it. When Lebron sits, we suck. I'm not gonna take anything away from anyone else, but the fact is that the gear that makes this machine run this series is Lebron. If he doesn't put up monster numbers in the final minutes after carrying the team the rest of the game doesn't matter. PEACE.

This. I never thought i would see the day when people complained about a guy scoring 32/10 a game. Those stats are not empty stats when you watch what happens when he sits down. We're not even mentioning his defense 1-5 positions and his ball handling duties. He also plays the entire 2nd half of most games. Only thing that will make these crying bitch haters shut up is if he scored 20 points through 3 and a half quaters and scored his remaining 12 points the final five minutes. What would be wrong with that though is the fact that we'll probably be down big at that point in the game and his 12 points wouldn't matter. If he does that then they'll say that he's stat padding when the game is already decided. Lebron is the last person that should be getting nitpicked this series and any so called "Heat Fan" that can't see this is just as bad as those haters that lurk this board like their lives depend on it.

In this series LeBron's stats have been the definition of empty. Let's look at facts:

In game 4, during LeBron's amazing wonderful stupendeous first half, we were down 14. Once Wade got into the act in the 3rd quarter, we were down by 5. How can this be you say? Surely the lead shrank because LeBron continued to carry everybody and it was simply Wade finally contributing offensively, right? The truth: LeBron had 4 points that quarter. 4. His stats have been empty all series long, but just because he's putting up some stats he's 'done his job'.

[Dat Pass]

I dont know if I would say that his stats are 'empty', but he definitely has been non-existant in the closing minutes of the games. 4 field goals in the last 5min of 5 games (plus 2 overtimes) is just sad.

Game 2 - LeBron: 24ftas, Boston: 29ftas

Heat fans: Fair game, LeBron was aggressive, stop crying about the refs.

Game 4 - Heat: 24ftas, Boston: 20ftas
(Pierce fouls out for 3rd time in 5 games, LeBron fouls out for the first time in 4 years)

Heat fans: OMFG REFS HANDED BOSTON THE GAME, WORST REFS EVER,

Miami sent a message? What exactly was that? That they are a bunch of classless punks? They used their biggest scrub to send a dirty cheap shot at a guy half his size. Good message.

This is basically how I feel.. Adding into that would be that Wade has turned into an absolute b****. Cries after every non-call, throws himself onto the ground every time he shoots, numerous dirty fouls and just punk behavior.

Maybe Delonte is sleeping with his mom again.

Orrrr maybe LeBron's elbow is hurt.

Good job exposing him arsenic. This bitch is probably on our board more than we are. Stop your obsession homey it's not healthy.

welp LBJ got 30 points in the 1st half ALONE>

dude is doing his job, it won't be his fault if we lose...

[WadeInTheWater]

Just edited the first post, my call was answered by the great LeBron James

[SweetTouch]

and this is the issue with the team
KD scored 3pts in the 4th
superheroes only exist in the comics

I can't believe I missed this great response

props

[Kyle6]

It's okay for you to be a Lebron fan but you don't need to hate on Wade to doit.

You probably couldn't see from the box scores but Wade is the one being double teamed every play. That's because Doc has decided the best way to beat Miami is to stop WADE and hope that Lebron can't do it on his own and that the supporting cast don't step up.

IfWade wasn't out there I think you could see Bron triple teamed throughout series.

I wrote this in another LEBRON thread.... I think it's appropriate here....

I find it funny there's a lot of LeBron threads, but he isn't the one playing bad for us.

It's Wade. But of course, he gets a pass. Like always.

Then if there's Wade threads, it's about how LeBron is keeping him back. It's like people are afraid to criticize him. It's like Laker fans ignoring Kobe shotjacking and blaming Pau or something.

How is LeBron keeping Wade back if Wade never even got out of the 1st round since 2006? Then he's just LIVING off that reputation. Wade has been fun to watch since he got back, but the last 2 years have been inconsistent. This year is worse than last year. Atleast last year he owned Boston, scored like 30ppg on very good shooting.

then he's always injured at the wrong time... Wade's my favorite player but it's really annoying with is injuries. He use to be able to play through various injuries. Not anymore, which is understandable.

[LeMVP]

You don't need to be a LeBron fan to see that Dwyane was bad during most parts of the season and the Playoffs. Were are all the people saying that LeBron missed the Finals because of double teams? Yeah, nowhere, because when you are at a HOF level like they both are you're supposed to have more impact in a game than this. That's no Wade hatting, all I wish is him to play at his level and succeed with this team.

[HIF]

He didn't play "bad during most ^parts of the season" what a load of tosh.

look at his numbers.

He played injured and still performed.

I hate lebron fans who feel the need to put down Dwyane Wade through jealousy.

He's got a ring and an NBA finals MVP. get over it . maybe Lebron will get one this season (maybe Wade will get his second).

[DefenseWins]

Was I called a LeBron fan and a Wade hater? I'm appreciative as hell for LeBron on this team.

Wade's my favorite player and has been since he was basically drafted on this team. But I'm a Heat fan first, and if Wade is playing like trash I'll say it.

Propping up LeBron to hate on Wade?

LeBron gets blamed for every loss and it's ridiculous because he brings it every night. Wade has changed the past couple of years into some diva.

Why the **** is it hating to call on Wade on his bad play? I don't understand that. So you can't be a Heat fan and criticize the **** franchise player? I've seen mods call out Wade on here and his bad play. Are they not Heat fans too?

I thought being a Heat fan meant being a fan of this team and not solely Wade.

LeBron has been unappreciated on this team. What he did last night is something a lot of Heat fans won't forget. Wade didn't even show up like that in an elimination game and it's disappointing. I even had a die hard Heat fan on my facebook say how LeBron solidified who's team it is because of what LeBron did. LAID IT ALL OUT in an elimination game.

oh boo hoo Wade's getting doubled. LeBron was give the jumpshot last night but also was at times QUADRUPLE teamed.

and why is it when one gives huge credit to LeBron, they are called a LeBron fan? WHAT UNIFORM IS HE WEARING AND WHAT TEAM IS HE REPRESENTING?

whatever, just glad the Heat won.

[mhi]

Bro lebron could have 45/15/8/3 and the Heat still lose.

lol,, I stand corrected.

You don't get it huh?

This has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with LeBron. Nothing. And he didn't play bad compared to an average NBA player, he played bad compared to an average Dwyane Wade. If you didn't see it you're blind, sorry bro.

People like you always remind me why I shouldn't lose my time on a board like this. Cheers.

Edit: almost forgot. Numbers don't tell the whole story, for example his whole behaviour on the court won't be reflected. But yeah, we can look at them if you want to: 22.1 - 4.8 - 4.6. His playoffs numbers? 22.9 - 4.9 - 4. Now tell me how this are not bad numbers for **** Dwyane Wade.

Edit2: No, don't tell me. I don't give a ****.

I don't see this type of behavior on any other team section. Even KOBE BEAN is not exempt for being called out on his **** from time to time but HERE? WOWWWWW

I just can't participate in homerism. I don't care about the name on the back of the jersey like some of you guys. I'm just not sure how you can call yourself a HEAT fan, you've been exposed.

ironic as ****.
