Is LeBron the best on his team at this point?

So did MJ ever score 8 points in a finals series game? Or completely disappear in the 4th quarter in the Finals?

Nice try, Pippen. I hope he doesn't live in Chicago, because he should seriously be BANNED from that city.

wow i am embarrassed for hyping lebron after game 4 and 5...if he pulls that on sunday..i am through hyping his sorry a$$.

What a complete strawman. LeBron took less money to join a better team in hopes to win championships. And you say that he doesnt have the desire to win? WTF? And statictically speaking, LeBron James has been extremely efficient late in games when he was with Cleveland. Better than Kobe or Wade. Its only this year that he seemed to be struggling late in games. The only thing he needs to do differently to make the haters shut up is to go to the rim and get free throws late in games. Thats how he's efficient and clutch. But he's been either badly coached or has been lately too confident in his jumpshots this year. Besides, clutch has nothing to do with the desire to win. Most of the NBA players have the desire to win, but simply aren't clutch.

kneel down lebron...now rise LeQuit James..

LeBron is more Pippen the Jordan.

Dwade is more Jordan then LeBron is.

LeBron isn't in the top 25 of all time imo.

Jordan never had a finals game where he score 8 points

Jordan never lost in the Finals

Jordan, Magic, Bird, Isiah, Kobe, Wilt, Russell, etcwould never have joined with each other to take a short cut to a title.

Lebron is no where near Jordan. He's no where near Magic, Bird, Kobe, Wilt, Moses, Kareem, West, Russell, Oscar, etc either.

LeBron is not Top 25? And how joining a team with a bunch of NBA D-League players is a shortcut to a championship? Stop talking out of your asses, seriously.

And 25 players who's total career is better then LeBrons to this point? Sure here you go:

Jordan, Bird, Magic, Oscar, Wilt, Russel, Kareem, Duncon, Shaq, West, Hakeem, Pippen, Kobe, Isiah, Garnett, Dirk, Bayler, Barkley, Stockton, Cousy, Moses, Karl Malone, Halvicek,Dr. J, Petitt.

There you go. Even if you wanna say LeBron is top 25, hes not top 15 or anything crazy like that. Jordan is number 1. LeBron isn't holding Jordan's jock right now.

They didn't take max contracts. They actually took less money so they could play in one team. LeBron, Wade and Bosh this season made $14,500,000 each. To put that in perspective Kobe made $25,000,000. They overpaid for Mike Miller though and are stuck with him for 3 years. The team was still under the luxury tax.

I thought we were talking about the Heat team this year and if they were adequate. If so, I would still say yes.

On the contract part, I was off, but Kobe makes more because of his time in the league and with the same team, I believe. So I don't think that comparison is fair. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Either way, Wade, James and Bosh decided to team-up together and knew how that would play into the team's payroll. So what's the issue? Again, if the Heat wanted to have more solid role players then they should not have picked-up one of the big 3.

If Lebron really cared about winning a championship he wouldn't have scored 8 points in a finals game. He was passing wide open shots. He was passing before he even looked at the rim. He didn't want to do anything with the ball. He is afraid of pressure. Also In the final quarter of the last game as a Cavalier against the Celtics you could see his body language that he didn't care anymore. The free throws wouldn't help him. He is not a good free throw shooter.

kage_53

He passed the ball a lot probably because he lost confidence in his ability to shoot. And its also can be interpreted as a selfless and team-first attitude to let another star like Bosh or Wade to make plays instead. So stop twisting facts just to fuel you're pre-conceptions about LeBron. And he wasn't afraid of the pressure, he was taking clutch shots against Boston and Chicago all series long. Also, give some credit to that Mavs defense that managed to shut him down so well FFS. Chicago and Boston couldnt even do that. They won the championship in 1 of the most amazing playoff runs in history. And you guys thinks you know better and puts all the attention on LeBron because he played bad. Well guess what, Wade and Bosh weren't any better in these Finals. So get over it and stop spoiling what might be the single most entertaining season ever. Jerks.
