People say that because we don't see him making game winners and buzzer beaters.
But the haters will forget the previous 15-20 points he scores in the 4th to put his team in that position to win.

LeBron has more playoff game winners in his career than Kobe. With half the playoffs played and with a lot more efficiency. So I don't believe that's the case.
There was a myth created in 2011 in the NBA finals. Did LeBron play like crap against Dallas in the 4th? Yes. I got news for you, after the 3rd quarter in game 2 he played like crap the entire series.
I think a lot of the playoff "choking" accusations really hit their peak with LeBron when he "quit" on the Cavs in his last season with a "fake" elbow injury.
Idk if they were fake or not but Cleveland did not lose because of LeBron.
Jamison got raped by KG, Mo never showed up (like always), Parker was never supposed to be at the starting 5 of any contender.
James played bad at game 5, but his team never gave him the chance to get it going late. He started the game poorly, and his team was soon down by a lot.
That Celtics team was great. Looking back at how it all came out they could have won 3 championships (2008 to 2010). Even at 2011 and 2012 I felt like Celtics were legit.
