The biggest limit on lebrons potential has been lebron.

****** can say whatever they want but this was always true to me.

He's been playing with the shackles completely off since last postseason.

Bosh getting hurt last year was the best thing that could've happened for LBJ and Spo.

at Heat being stacked. LeBron is basically back in Cleveland with Chris Bosh. LeBron is just that good. Wade is an average player. Chalmers isn't starting on many teams. Ray Allen is old.

Melo is an average glorified chucker

DWill is fatter than Melo, though.

 

[Nawzlew]

Wade is an average player.

above average at martial arts tho

 

[Trillmatic90]

Kobe's helping the Lakers by passing more is good, but he hasn't even attempted a shot. My fantasy team misses the 30 ppg Kobe

 

[Trillmatic90]

at Wade being average.

If 'average' means averaging 21, 5, and 5 coming of surgery, give me average any day of the week.

Kobe really on his assisting **** this is crazy

How much more stacked can a team get? You surround 3 stars who can carry a team with shooters and defenders - that's how you build a team.

Think about this - the Heat can get rid of the MVP of the league and still be a top tier team. They could get rid of a top 3 shooting guard in the league and still be a top team in the league. There's no doubt in my mind that if LBJ was off that team - Wade and Bosh would effortlessly pick up playmaking duties and the Heat would still be a top team in the East.

Why do you think they joined forces

Wade cant carry a team anymore

He recruited bron and bosh because of this

Bosh is #2 at best and toronto wasnt going anywhere

Bron ....the guy thats in his prime who is capable of carrying a team and thirsty for a ring

Wade and bosh knew without lebron they werent beating the celtics ... they knew without joining forces the celtics were gonna keep coming out of the east

 

[mgrand15]

He's done this before. Stops shooting to prove some kind of point. Looks dumb every time.

 

[Nawzlew]

When was the last time Kobe did not take a FG in the first half?

When he was 2?

 

[black migo]

The heat with just bosh and wade wouldnt beat the celtics and probably brons cavs

So just stop that talk about the heat would still be good without lebron

What for one how does it look dumb? they are winning

And two, he's been doing this for the past two weeks, don't think he's just doing this to prove a point

What point would he be trying to prove? You sure he's not just trying to win games and make the playoffs?

While true, he's really going out of his way to pass.

D. Wade is the best 2 guard in the league and has been for at least the past 4-5 years now.

no he isnt and no he hasnt

basic game

 

[solarius49]

Something i was thinking...

Why do these "all time great" scorers have to come from our era? The consensus all time great scorer is MJ, couldnt the second be Jerry West, or Havlicek, or Kareem (who is the highest scoring player of all time)? In fact why does it always have to be a wing player? We speak of "all time" greats but have no depth to our opinions....

nobody?

Meanwhile the Suns are just running the Lakers on offense every time now.

 

[addict4sneakers]

down goes Harden

 

[ballinsam23]

I know Wade can practically turn it on anytime he wants and the Heat are on cruise control till playoffs start but Harden > Wade this season

 

[mjshoefanatic]

Will Farrell

hilarious.



yeah Harden is the best SG in the nba right now.

PHX

The answer to your question IMO is evolution.

We're seeing it now. Lebron is becoming the best scorer now. Before it was MJ, and other players were before him. The generation that is at present will always have the best players and collection of talent in my eyes. Just the way it is.

Pretty good strategery if you ask me.

I can't even knock them, it's working.

Pathetic from the Lakers' side really.

You're right, maybe PJ Tucker is just putting the clamp on him

He's actually defending him really well and did so in Phx a week or two ago. He's a very underrated defender.
