Dwyane Wade’s NBA Finals Defensive Incompetence Exposed (Video) | Miami Heat | NESN.com


LeBron will never have as many rings as Kobe or Jordan. He just doesnt have the killer instinct he needs to have in certain situations. Not to mention is the biggest baby on the court. He cries to ref every single time he drives the lane. And I've lost count how many times ive watched him drive to the lane and just toss the ball up wildly looking for a foul call. I've enjoyed every minute of the last 2 games.

Wait…you're serious? Hahaha

LeBron gets credit for passing to his teammates in the clutch but that is the same trait that will hold him back. The greatest players of all time wanted the ball in their hands and took games over. I've seen LeBron do that occasionally, but not near as much as he should.

The guy usually controls a game for four quarters. And if want to look up his "clutch" stats feel free, you won't like what you see.
 
I don't buy into "the greatest ever" debate in sports. A player is either elite or not.

It's a ridiculous conversation to have because there are so many greats that narrowing it down to the best is usually akin to a dog chasing it's tail.
 
Jordan would thrive today for many reasons. #1 Psychologically he was/is far superior than anyone he played against. He could easily talk people out of their game.

#2 In this era he doesn't have to worry about players like Laimbeer, Mahorn, Charles Oakley, Rodman etc..guys who would put you on your rear if you drove the lane. Gone are the days when guys had to earn a basket if they entered the paint. A hard foul today gets you suspended and fined, back then it was just hard play. Imagine LeBron against Detroit or the Knicks back in the late 80's early 90's, he cries for fouls now (not as much as Wade) but most players today cry if you fart in their direction.

#3 The hand checking. Jordan was so good at creating space against his defender and those guys could keep a hand on him. He would be unguardable.

Before I go let me say this, I'm not a huge Jordan fan. Magic was my favorite player but I would love to see the matchup between last years Heat team and Jordan's best Bulls team.

Hand checking is so overrated. It's not a real deterrent to scoring.

I imagine that if LeBron were to have played in that era (and he's not exclusive to this comment) that he would have had no problem. He (and everyone else) is simply playing the game in a manner that is beneficial. Ftr, I hate flopping but as long as refs reward it and the league ignores it, why not?
 
LeBron will never have as many rings as Kobe or Jordan. He just doesnt have the rebounding and interior presence he needs to have in certain situations. Not to mention is the biggest baby on the court. He cries to ref every single time he drives the lane. And I've lost count how many times ive watched him drive to the lane and just toss the ball up wildly looking for a foul call. I've enjoyed every minute of the last 2 games.

FYP. Kobe never won a championship without a top 5 rebounding team. The Heat were 30th this year in rebounding (and last year).

Over a 5 year span Lebron hit more clutch shots than Kobe on fewer attempts, and then factor in the clutch assists he's come up with. Your post probably sounds great to haters, but reality defies you.

If KL wins finals MVP, he'll be the youngest (22) of my lifetime. Duncan was 23 in '99. Magic was 20 in 1980 (2 years before I was born).

He'd be in good company.

WTF is LeBron talking about saying the Heat like to play with "all their backs against the wall"? Since this team was put together 4 years ago, they've literally never been in this position. Ever.
