Because he didnt score 38, ugh

And he didnt even cry about help that is an inside sources aka chris broussard or some reporter made it up.

But he also passed it to the same guy that just made a clutch 3 a play ago. Again, no body on our board would be complaining had Bosh not missed the jumper as badly as he did.

I don't need to check the Heat board. I watched the game and he made the only intelligent play there, as I imagine it was drawn up. If only he'd thrown up a heavily contested shot that would've been a less than 30% chance for anyone taking it. :-?

Umm... I don't know what that guy was talking about but Durant just passed up a shot just like that against Dallas last night when he saw the double coming, he passed it to wb. It was a designated play out of timeout, in a situation Miami usually succeeds in. Miami is not going to win 60 games after making it to three straight finals. Boo hoo. Kd is just about to win his first MVP, don't be a sore winner, Durant fans.

I do know the play you are talking about, I watched the end and OT of that OKC-Mavs game but I see no value in giving him a similar scenario since I don't think he is looking for an objective discussion. So instead of bringing up the KD play I simply tried to remind him that LeBron hit a game winner in the very game before this. Maybe he missed it, I am giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Iirc he hit two game winners in a row. Unless the game before the portland one was a go ahead. Who cares, it doesn't matter, this is the same man that hit the go ahead in game 7 finals.

Yeah, the Portland game the game was tied and he scored and Miami had to play defense on the last possession and won. He's had a buzzer beater against GSW, and game winners against Portland and Orlando this season. Anyway, repeating that "LeBron doesn't win any games" doesn't make it any more true. Not even close to the truth.

If you thought Lebron was the problem in that game, I got nothing I can say to you.

That makes absolutely no sense.....

Miami played defense, Bosh got the block, and LeBron's game winner stood. At this point you are arguing for the sake of arguing.

I love the way he can launch a 28-footer straight from the triple threat position. Just pure scoring arrogance. I remember he did a similar thing against Golden State to hit 50.


Do you also have a gif of him having his hand down while Jose scored a three to tie the game? Sick shot no doubt but his poor defense gave the points right back.


I'm confused as to the point of your post.

This will be my last reply to you on this subject since you are arguing for the sake of arguing. You said LeBron's not winning any games when just the last game he played before the Indy game he had a game winner. He's had game winners against GSW and Orlando. You are not showing any objectivity and simply repeating statements which have no basis in reality. What do you mean by "other last 8 losses"? Miami isn't on a losing streak. The team as a whole is slumping and struggling. They have hit the 3peat fatigue that people like Steve Kerr were talking about. Now for them it's all about managing the minutes of their Big 3 especially to keep them fresh for the playoffs.

I'm in my mid 20s so maybe i am getting older and more mature, so perhaps my 'hate' and the extremes i had for him have cooled, but there is no way that Lebron made the wrong play tonight at the end.

He hit the open man, a man who had just hit a 3 to get them back within 1 point. He opted for the higher percentage play of taking a fade away 30 footer with 2 guys on him.

The Heat lost, big deal. Lebron was great in that game.
