LeBron says he's ready to "dust off" post game in Bosh absence

[PleezeBelieve]

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/truehoop/miamiheat/news/story?id=6046399


“I spent a lot of time on it this offseason. Once I made the decision to come here and realized we had a low-post threat, I kind of backed off a little bit. ... With [Chris Bosh] being out, I can go back to it. I just have to dust it off a little bit. It's no problem.

:roll:

I swear to god, this guy's ego is twice as bloated than when he was in Cleveland. Read this article. Dude swear be has no weakness and acts like he's won six rings already.

[ProfessorMurder]

:oldlol: 'Dust off' implies that he had one before.

[macpierce]

before he dusts it off he better make sure it was actually there in the first place
:oldlol:
jesus who are the idiots who keep negging me :(

:oldlol: 'Dust off' implies that he had one before.
The audacity of the "Its no problem" statement.

This guy is not who we thought he was...

[griffmoney1784]

sh* that post game must have a 5 inch layer of dust cause it hasnt been used since he came in the league

[PJR]

Anybody got the GIF of him trying to post up Tony Allen in the playoffs last year? :oldlol:

[knightfall88]

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAH classic.

Kobe has no problems playing in the post with 3 other low post threats yet this guy wants to "dust it off" once Bosh is injured

[griffmoney1784]

no wonder he cant find his post game

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rP_N9GFUgeI

his whole house is probably covered in dust

[niko]

So basically even though him having a post game would have helped him in the past immensely, the first time he's bringing it out now, for 1 or 2 regular season games Bosh will miss like they are terrible crucial.

WTF?

[strike]

how can you dust something off that you NEVER HAD?!?!

[Meticode]

how can you dust something off that you NEVER HAD?!?!
I think he had it, he just never used it. He abused the hell out of Artest last year backing him down in the post numerous times.

[strike]

I think he had it, he just never used it. He abused the hell out of Artest last year backing him down in the post numerous times.

but if hes always had a post game, doesnt that make him plain and simply STUPID for never having used it before?

Correct. He actually said a season or two ago he could go in the post more if you wanted to, but it's too boring for him. I'm serious too, he said it was boring to him.

I spent a lot of time this past year working out and playing ball. I'm a 6'9 power forward and was planning on trying out for the bulls. When I found out that they signed Carlos Boozer though, I just decided that I would stay at home and let him do his thing. Now that he's injured the bulls decided to call me up. I'm gonna be a perennial all-star, I just need to dust my skills off. It's no problem.

lol. as much of a fan of Lebron as I am, that made me lol really hard. come on Lebron my man, we all know you ain't got no post game. that's what we fans of yours have been waiting for you to develop ever since you entered the nba. i mean, 3-4 years early on in your career it may have been understandable you still haven't developed it, but come on! if you had actually worked on it, Cleveland may already have been NBA champs the last 2 years. dust off your ego, and work on it! we promise you, you'll get your rings.

[B-Easy]

people laugh at his post game .. but anytime he catches it in the post, teams send hard doubles at him .. and Miami gets wide open shots off of it.

good things happen when Lebron gets it in the post.

Not only is that true, but Odom also added some post skills over the summer. So yeah, Pau, Bynum, Kobe, Artest and Odom can all operate in the post. Point is it can never hurt to have/use an arsenal of skills. Lebron is full of sh*t.

[SSSTRESSS]

[Harion]

All with one defender.:applause: Good job Lebron.

we all recognize Lebron is bad at post moves. but can you at least evaluate the play more objectively instead of being a blind hater?

watch it again. on Lebron's turn to the right, Davis was waiting (that's a double team right there) on his next turn to the left, KG went over to help. if ever Lebron tries a high arc shot, KG would've blocked it.

one defender? lol. everytime Lebron goes in or even near the paint, Boston always packs that area with defenders.

watch it again. Lebron's best option would've been to shoot the ball on that first turn and wait for either Pierce or Davis to foul him. right at the moment KG came over to help, there were 4 celtics players around that paint area. if he didn't force the shot, his teammates were all open to make a shot.

[DDensity]

Why doesn't he just answer basic questions like Kobe has been taught to do??

Kobe was extremely arrogant when he was younger but he is not stupid. Lebron, on the other hand, is legitimately dumb. Look at the guy try to compose a sentence. Most of what he says doesn't make any sense.

So yeah, this isn't going to stop. The best he'll do is mature and learn to shut his mouth. But as soon as it opens, expect stupidity to spew out.

[TaLvsCuaL]

I believe that you are exaggerating a bit, that could mean playing the low post more, if the team needs that. I do not think he is being egocentric at any time.

I think LeBron has physical and talent to spare, to play power forward perfectly. If you have not done before is because it's better forward, and produce more for that position.

I always thought after the trade to Miami, if he played more in the low post would be more compatible with Wade. And I think it's a good idea even though Bosh is completely healthy.

[Lebron23]

He abused Ron Artest last Christmas. I would love to see LeBron play at the post.

Let see if he can show some decent post moves against Kleiza, Dorsey, and Weems.

Actualy genius, I'm a fan of lebron, not a hater at all...
Just because I criticize a stupid move he made, doesn't make me a blind hater :facepalm

Also if you watch it closely, he is already fkd by the time Davis comes over, he has no idea what to do with his pivot...
Then he spins around like a retard and kg comes over.

At this point it's a disaster and crap lob time:facepalm


Would have been better to pump fake, one dribble and pull up.

Post game isn't just scoring though right? Post game would take into account floor awareness (where the most likely double/triple would come) Defensive awareness (is it really that unusual for him to be double teamed?) and ability to recognize both the previous and pass out of the double team. How many big men get criticized for being reluctant to give up the ball?

Anyway that's just one play and i'm not trying to judge his entire post game from it but in saying that i don't think it should be defended because as an individual play it is a rather low IQ play that wasn't pulled off very well either.

[sh0wtime]

You don't even need to make a gif. Why not some youtube footage? Or you're gonna find more excuse?

Ill rather find more excuses, like:

I dont download games, dont know where to download games (i take it thats required to make GIFs right?), i am no movie making computer guru either, i watch games live instead, then i go to bed, then work for 9 hours, workout, go out with friends, check these boards to chuckle at your mindbogling comments, watch another game, then go to bed again. :)

I am not bothered with nor have time for your kindof obsessed "fandom" or "hatred" to consistantly roam and spectate for Lebron missing a basket, do a travel, turn the ball over just so i can spend useless minutes/hours to make GIFs out of it, then upload to the web so that my e-penile can grow by observing how other haters worship my GIFs considering they now can continue their radical bashing of what is probably the best player in the game.

I dont need to show you anything and you dont need to show me anything either, all of us watch the games, we saw when Lebron totally humiliated Ron Artest in the post over and over, then we saw Lebron missing a shot in the post the next game, then we saw him not play in the post at all. But any mature basketball in reality knows Lebron has an average/ok post up game, which he doesnt use that often, which he must improve.... but we also know you are an immature hater who think Lebron has a ridicilously bad post up game and has always failed there, a totally unoptimistic user who probably throws darts at Lebrons poster in his room and then kisses Kobes poster and then goes to bed with a big smile on his face.

I'm going on a tangent because I cannot find, nor remember, any successful post move performed by LeBron. :cry:

but let me invent some bullshit about Lebron totally humiliatin Ron Artest in the post over and overLeBron's shot chart in the Christmas game:
http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/1883/image1zya.jpg

His two makes in the paint were a driving lay-up and a put-back. Other than that he settled for long jumpers. Yeah you watch the games but with LeBron's balls in front of your eyes you don't seem to remember much.

You can now stop the unsubstantiated bullshit about LeBron's "average/ok" post up game.

Showtime was referring to the '09 Christmas game not the '10 Christmas game. Lebron did take Artest in the post a couple of times during the '09 game and score on him.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8O55LcVxf4

2:05

3:00

The moves weren't particularly "Hakeemesque" or really that impressive, but he did score on Artest in the post a couple of times. The one at 2:05 reminded me more of what Shaq used to do so often back in the day.

In this video, at the :37 mark he takes Posey into the post and does a pretty basic jump hook. One thing I've noticed about Lebron when he does enter the post is that he seems to look to draw a double team and to pass more than he looks to actually score.

[Phong]

Showtime was referring to the '09 Christmas game not the '10 Christmas game. Lebron did take Artest in the post a couple of times during the '09 game and score on him.That game? He only scored one time on Artest using a post move in the 1st quarter. All the other points he scored were driving lay-up and jumpshots. It's this play:

http://nsa26.casimages.com/img/2011/01/22/110122061846747366.gif

So where was the constant humiliation he delt to Artest with his post moves that Sh0wtime mentioned?

[Phong]

3:00Nice find. Didn't remember this one.

[ATL_Bball_King]

You guys on ISH are so funny at times...This is such a funny thread to read...

Cant believe he said Bosh was a low post threat and was serious as hell...:oldlol:

Cant beleive he said he will dust of his imaginary post game just because his PF is hurt...:lol

So you are telling me that players that are not post players only suppose to post up if there main big is out... What was Lebron wanting people to get from this comment...?? That he doesnt use his whole repertoire of his game...??? :facepalm

Dumb comment by Lebron...

Actualy genius, I'm a fan of lebron, not a hater at all...
Just because I criticize a stupid move he made, doesn't make me a blind hater :facepalm

Also if you watch it closely, he is already fkd by the time Davis comes over, he has no idea what to do with his pivot...
Then he spins around like a retard and kg comes over.

At this point it's a disaster and crap lob time:facepalm


Would have been better to pump fake, one dribble and pull up.
look. i don't care if he's already fkd by the time Davis comes over. or if he travels or makes an awkward pivot. my beef with you is that you claim Lebron is ONLY guarded by 1 defender, when that simply IS NOT TRUE. i don't fkng care if he spins like a retard. i'm criticizing you for NOT EVALUATING THAT PLAY RIGHT. at least ADMIT THAT HE IS NOT GUARDED BY JUST 1 PLAYER. watch it again. almost all 4 celtics players were camping that paint and guarding Lebron. and off screen (you can't see it) Rondo is facing Lebron with his back against his man. Virtually no Celtics is paying any attention to anyone else except Lebron. WATCH IT AGAIN!

the other gif is a better representation of Lebron's fail at posting up. but not this one. this one is a decent one by comparison (he got his shot off). lol at all of you trying to make it appear that was a one on one guarding of Lebron by Pierce. Pierce was being backed down successfully by Lebron before Davis came over to help. fkin one on one. smh. i can't believe how many of you lose your basketball senses where Lebron is concerned. if that was not Lebron, all of you would notice that is not a one on one play.

but we also know you are an immature hater who think Lebron has a ridicilously bad post up game and has always failed there, a totally unoptimistic user who probably throws darts at Lebrons poster in his room and then kisses Kobes poster and then goes to bed with a big smile on his face.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Lebron needs to study a truly skilled SF in the post. Eight freakin seasons and he has absolutely none of this in his arsenal right now...no drop steps, no up and unders, no shoulder/headfakes, no real footwork...absolutely nothing. All he can really do is back someone down and throw up an awkward shot. That's not a post game.

Nah. coin24 is absolutely right. A skilled post player should kill with the kind of space Lebron is given. I don't care how many Celtic players are "looking" at him. Lebron still has space to operate against Pierce and fails miserably. On his first pivot he could have easily thrown a little jumphook over Pierce but for some reason he paused (Davis wasn't even close to him) and didn't really know what to do next.

Thats not the point.

Lebron is acting like he ALREADY has a post game and that he might just bust it out for old times sake..

Of course he can develop one in the future but that literally has nothing to do with what he said.

Guys Lebron is a gifted athlete that plays basket, he isn't a basketball player that at the same is a gifted athlete also, that guy was called Michael Jordan, and that's why Lebron will never touch him, or should never touch him, since it's seems all that matters is the rings, who knows, Lebron can still win a truckload of them.

LeBron's post game fundamentals aren't terrible. His awareness goes from a 9 or 10 to a 2 or 3, though. He just doesn't look comfortable operating on the block.

Yeah the few times I've seen him go into the post he just looks really uncomfortable and awkward like he's forcing it. He will have to develop one sooner or later though if he wants to remain an elite scorer because that freakish athleticism won't always be there. MJ had to do it. Kobe had to do it. You don't stay young forever.

Jordan had the post skills far before he lost athleticism. It's just a different era where players back then were more fundamentally sound and you can tell the guys today have relied upon their athleticism to get by. Guys coming out from one year in college have a lot of talent, but an underdeveloped game.

Right MJ could go into the post earlier in his career but he had to rely on it more in his later career after he lost some athleticism. Added to the fact that he played under a structured offense with Phil. He didn't completely become a shell of his former self as he got older as far as his athleticism, but it definitely helped with his longevity as far as being the dominant scorer he was. I totally agree with the rest of your post though :cheers:

I have to say Lebron pretty much shut anybody up who said he had no or extremly sucky post game (Phong) with his post game today, his face-up & back to the back basket was very efficient down there, he got alot of assists from the post aswell, great work, he still needs to tune it up somewhat though, i just wish he would go down there more often.

He did have some pretty nice post moves, I was surprised, I've really never seen those moves from him before, I'd say he posted up on 75% of his shots, and most were very efficient. That sky hook shot btw was clean as ****, I kept thinking he was going to try it again but he never did

This season, James has scored points on exactly 50 percent of his 56 post-up plays that resulted in a shot attempt or foul, according to Synergy Sports. Last season, that number was 58 percent. In fact, no player in the league with a minimum of 100 shot attempts in the post generated a higher point of possession on post plays than James did in 2009-10. Bosh ranked second, with Dirk Nowitzki, Zach Randolph and Tim Duncan rounding out the Top 5.

I've got a complaint about the one against the Celtics. It's too fast. I can't even count how many times he switched his pivot foot.

[Phong]

I've got a complaint about the one against the Celtics. It's too fast. I can't even count how many times he switched his pivot foot.It doesn't really matter. It's not like the refs would call him for a travel anyway. :confusedshrug:

[pegasus]

It doesn't really matter. It's not like the refs would call him for a travel anyway. :confusedshrug:

We gotta start giving the refs more credit around here. They did call him for a travel last night, and it was in the final seconds of the game. I'm pretty sure Lebron would have made a 5-point shot to tie the game, had they not called it.

[LA_Showtime]

I mean this in the nicest way possible: It's embarrassing to watch LeBron try and post up. His court awareness drops to like a one and he looks like a malfunctioning robot.

I have to say Lebron pretty much shut anybody up who said he had no or extremly sucky post game (Phong) with his post game today, his face-up & back to the back basket was very efficient down there, he got alot of assists from the post aswell, great work, he still needs to tune it up somewhat though, i just wish he would go down there more often.
Posting up Jose Calderon and Julian Wright... :bowdown:


http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/miamiheat/post/_/id/3950/lebron-james-mans-his-post

This season, James has scored points on exactly 50 percent of his 56 post-up plays that resulted in a shot attempt or foul, according to Synergy Sports. Last season, that number was 58 percent. In fact, no player in the league with a minimum of 100 shot attempts in the post generated a higher point of possession on post plays than James did in 2009-10. Bosh ranked second, with Dirk Nowitzki, Zach Randolph and Tim Duncan rounding out the Top 5.
So how many attempts were made and didn't result in a bail out call or a massive turnover? Ofcourse Lebron is going to have a high % when he posts up mismatches all the time, he's 260 lbs of speed and strength the high % is not surprising. The fact he always screws up against actual defenses and misses the easiest of shots is baffling.

Still he made a hook shot against Toronto... :bowdown:

He tries to play the part of a finesse big man when all he has to do is bully his way into the paint. Develop a drop step, hook shot, and be able to make them with either hand and he's golden. Players always look so afraid of him when he's in the post. They're never physical with him. Lol

Sure, but thats what i mean. We need a Lebron version of Phong, just for fun i mean. :)
So that he can also accumulate 1000 GIF's from every missed attempt of Kobe aswell, so that Phong and whoever can have their own battle, right now its kindof one sided, boring. :P

One minor? Not really. He's got to work on several things and that'll be taken care of in the off-season. This staff he's been training with in Miami haven't thought him shit. Lebron now should have to go to players to get post-up advice.

Lebron didnt hit anything last night, not any layup or open jumpshot, the good looks he got from posting up he missed aswell, he was simply off, the post didnt change much as he was completely off, you miss shots in the post to sorry to say, there is inconsistancy there to even with the best post players. Did you watch the previous game where his post game was excellent?

Its funny how your post game is good when you hit the shots there, but terrible when you miss even though you take ridicilously easy shots that simply roll out...

[asdf1990]

Lebrons post game is trash, hopefully he goes and learns from hakeem in the off season. Hakeem has done wonders for dwight and kobe in the post.

[sh0wtime]

My point is simply that Lebron has an average/ok post game and at his size as a perimeter player its more than enough to cause damage considering its always a smaller or weaker defender guarding him, he only needs to start going there more often so he can get comfortable, he rarely ever goes to post somebody up because he doesnt need to, his face up game is much more effective as he blows by anybody, he doesnt need to toy around with posting somebody up, hence the inconsistancy and comfort when he finally decides to go there, the only reason he goes there more often now is because the lack of offensive post presence (Bosh is injured) and the fact that he is playing PF and also probably because he wants to "dust-off" his post game as he said (which probably means improve his post game).

Think of this analogy, you are 6'9 and you are faster, more powerfull and more athletic than anybody at your position, would you post somebody up... or would simply just blow by him and jump over everybody else behind him? So i understand why he didnt / doesnt post up so much, but at the same time he needs to work on the post game asap, it will make him much more deadlier.

The bold parts are wrong. Lebron should have a much more effective post game for his size. Much, much more.

His face up game is just as ineffective. Lebron is not the type of player who should get the ball, isolated, slow down the offense and make a play. Usually ends up in the terrible shot, turnover, bailout three and the ofcourse the bail out whistle. In conclusion thought, it's not good. And it's not something he should be doing. Especially with a team like Miami, plays should be run for him, pnr, pnp etc etc. No reason why he should settle for his weak back-to-basket/face-to-face games.

And just because Bosh is out doesn't mean he should 'dust off' his 'post game'. Wade is much better in the post anyways, he should've been in there especially when Feilds or Gallinari couldn't guard him, but Lebron went into hero mode and Wade was forced to work off the ball and made Wade irrelevant in the fourth. These were reasons for the loss. Lebron trying to do something out of the ordinary and it resulted in him being ineffective and eventually Wade became a victim.

You can say he doesn't need to have one yet, and thats all fine and dandy...but no one can defend how awful his so called "post moves" are at the moment.

Miami: Miamia Heat coach Eric Spoelstra has informed the Heat beat reporters that Lebron James will introduce a new post move known as the "Lobster Dribble"

"It's like the Crab dribble with two more steps, we think it will help him turn around and square up on the basket and open the floor for him." Spoelstra continued by saying the Lobster dribble is a move Lebron himself invented in practice to save energy "Lebron was getting tired dribbling the ball." Spoelstra went on to say "Dribbling is mentally tiring for Lebron and asked if he could cut back in practice and save it for the games when there's more people watching who will appreciate his style" but once the Heat coaching staff saw the Lobster they knew they had a winner and have asked Lebron to incorporate it into his post game.

Rumor has it he's also working on the Crawfish for Zone defenses, there was no word on how soon the "Crawfish" dribble would follow.

[sh0wtime]

Lebron should have a much more effective post game for his size. Much, much more.

Agree.


His face up game is just as ineffective.

You have to be kidding me!? Haha, his face up game is probably the most productive and efficient in the NBA! :oldlol: Thats basically how he gets most of his points for gods sake, mostly you see jab to either direction and then bam he is off one dribble and he is already by you at the rim looking for a AND1.


Lebron is not the type of player who should get the ball, isolated, slow down the offense and make a play. Usually ends up in the terrible shot, turnover, bailout three and the ofcourse the bail out whistle.

Are we watching the same players? Now i know he didnt look like a master last game, but that statement is mindbogling, have you seen him in Cleveland or previous games? He makes wonders from isolations, he either gives you an assist or scores, that is how it "mostly" looked like sorry to say.

Plus i dont understand this "isolation" talk, he is not a traditional SF/SG/wingplayer where you just give him the ball and wait for him to score, he is a point-forward, when you give a point-forward back the ball you give him the ball the same way you give your pointguard the ball, you give him the ball to create a play, to playmake, not to just score! Thats not necessarily an ISO!



In conclusion thought, it's not good. And it's not something he should be doing. Especially with a team like Miami, plays should be run for him, pnr, pnp etc etc. No reason why he should settle for his weak back-to-basket/face-to-face games.

Those "weak" back-to-basket/face-to-face games have worked pretty well in the past, especially when it mattered, dont mind Phongs gifs, he didnt show you when he humiliated for example Ron Artest all season long down there last season, thats just one example of many.

And im still saying his post game needs work, but its not that ridicilously bad as you (and Phong) try to state, it almost feels like im talking to only Lebron haters or something.


And just because Bosh is out doesn't mean he should 'dust off' his 'post game'. Wade is much better in the post anyways, he should've been in there especially when Feilds or Gallinari couldn't guard him, but Lebron went into hero mode and Wade was forced to work off the ball and made Wade irrelevant in the fourth. These were reasons for the loss. Lebron trying to do something out of the ordinary and it resulted in him being ineffective and eventually Wade became a victim.

Why not? The first game he did "dust-off" (the previous game) he looked phenomenal there (sorry, Phong didnt bother to make GIF's out of those) so there is no "proof". :rolleyes:
Hence why Lebron felt confident going there this game aswell and rightfully so but he was completely off, he missed the shots not because of a "bad post game", he missed shots simply because he missed the shots, do we call him a bad finisher and jumpshooter for also missing those entirely open layups and jumpshots to?

When Lebron has a good shooting night = You are not commenting

When Lebron has a bad shooting night = You are commenting and saying that he is a terrible shooter.

When Lebron has a good night in the post = You are not commenting, ignoring it like it never happened.

Do you know what a face up game is? I don't think so, because you say he gets most of his points from here. This tells me alot about your knowledge towards the game and Lebron's game. Lebron gets most of his points working within an offensive set. Pick and roll, pick and pop, zip cuts, off the ball, catch and drive etc etc.

When he gets the ball isolated on the wings or corners, slows down the offense, little to no off ball movement, he is almost completely ineffective. This is where he decides to either post-up or try something from his face-up game. He screws up quite often here.



Are we watching the same players? Now i know he didnt look like a master last game, but that statement is mindbogling, have you seen him in Cleveland or previous games? He makes wonders from isolations, he either gives you an assist or scores, that is how it "mostly" looked like sorry to say.
I have. I should be asking you this, do you know how Lebron scores? Because isolation is not his #1 choice, not at all, nor should it be. Isolation plays are the reason why he's shooting -3%-4%. Which is not a big problem, but not something you'd expect from someone of Lebron's size and talent.



Plus i dont understand this "isolation" talk, he is not a traditional SF/SG/wingplayer where you just give him the ball and wait for him to score, he is a point-forward, when you give a point-forward back the ball you give him the ball the same way you give your pointguard the ball, you give him the ball to create a play, to playmake, not to just score!

Yes I know, this my point.

Humiliated Ron Artest? I remember one play where his posted Ron up and it resulted in a basket. The others were setting picks for Artest to get him out of the picture, and when that didn't work either refs tookover or Lebron used his speed to his advantage. Honestly do you even watch these games?


And im still saying his post game needs work, but its not that ridicilously bad as you (and Phong) try to state, it almost feels like im talking to only Lebron haters or something.
It's just below expectations, that's all.



Why not? The first game he did "dust-off" (the previous game) he looked phenomenal there (sorry, Phong didnt bother to make GIF's out of those) so there is no "proof". :rolleyes:
It's Calderon, Julian Wright, and Raptors. This raptors team is the worst its ever been in the past decade and more. Nothing impressive here.


Hence why Lebron felt confident going there this game aswell and rightfully so but he was completely off, he missed the shots not because of a "bad post game", he missed shots simply because he missed the shots, do we call him a bad finisher and jumpshooter for also missing those entirely open layups and jumpshots to?
He was making the layups and dunks. You saw near the end he got 3-4 feild goals because he chose not to isolate! Most of his baskets, if not all came from outside his post-up and face-up game!


When Lebron has a good shooting night = You are not commenting
I am. This is irrelevant. I gave him much praise for his game against Cleveland.


When Lebron has a bad shooting night = You are commenting and saying that he is a terrible shooter.
I don't even think he's a terrible shooter...

Phong suffered a major heart attack. 39 points on 60 FG&, 9 rebounds, 8 assists.

[sh0wtime]

Do you know what a face up game is? I don't think so, because you say he gets most of his points from here.

I do sorry to say, unfortunately you dont. Ill break it down for you:

A Face-Up is when a player is catching the ball and facing up square with the basket. From this position, a post player can see the whole floor. If another defender rushes over to double team you, a teammate should cut and receive a pass for a wide open layup. If the your defender sags off too much, BOOM!, you rise up for the open jumper. What if the defense is too tight? Put the ball on the deck and take a hard jab step to the basket.

This is what Lebron is excellent at.


This tells me alot about your knowledge towards the game and Lebron's game.

Thats the way we retaliate huh? As far as Lebron goes, i have probably not missed a single game from him, i am basketball fan sorry to say i have not missed a game with Kobe since 1996 and not with Wade or not with many players actually, dont try your "ur teh Lebronze homerizm" here thank you very much.


Lebron gets most of his points working within an offensive set. Pick and roll, pick and pop, zip cuts, off the ball, catch and drive etc etc.

True and from Facing Up, the point is not how he gets most of his points, the point was made towards your ridicilous point "Lebrons faceup is more ineffective than his post game", dont try to slither your way out of this one.


When he gets the ball isolated on the wings or corners, slows down the offense, little to no off ball movement.

Ofcourse it slows the offense, what do you expect? This is what ISO's do! Do you know anything about basketball?


he is almost completely ineffective.

Care to elaborate? I have not heard anything but yackety yack "boohoo he sux, he is ineffective".


This is where he decides to either post-up or try something from his face-up game. He screws up quite often here.

:facepalm



I should be asking you this, do you know how Lebron scores? Because isolation is not his #1 choice, not at all, nor should it be. Isolation plays are the reason why he's shooting -3%-4%. Which is not a big problem, but not something you'd expect from someone of Lebron's size and talent.

Thanks for the info?



Humiliated Ron Artest? I remember one play where his posted Ron up and it resulted in a basket. The others were setting picks for Artest to get him out of the picture, and when that didn't work either refs tookover or Lebron used his speed to his advantage. Honestly do you even watch these games?[quote]

Stopped caring right there.

[quote]It's Calderon, Julian Wright, and Raptors. This raptors team is the worst its ever been in the past decade and more. Nothing impressive here.

So you deny anytime he posts up and is successful because of defense? How do we explain when he is successful against super defenders like tonight Tayshuan Prince and anybody else who tried or how about when he is not successful against the worst players in the NBA?



Neither does yours or your homerism. :cheers:

You have absolutely no proof of that, you know that yourself. I am a basketball fan first and foremost, i dont hate Lebron, i dont love Lebron, but i appreciate his game and i will criticise him when he diserve it and i will respect him when he diserves it and i will correct the incorrect statements about him (like yours) with facts, same goes with all players Kobe, Wade, Dwight, Durant, CP3, Nash, Ibaka, Ilgauskas, Vujacic, whoever you like!

"Homerism" is what i hear all the time from you pathetic Lebron haters lately. Either you hate Lebron or you are a Lebron homer amongst you guys here and even if you are just a unbiased basketball fan who sticks to facts who simply appreciates all players and teams correcting and debating you out of your monitor you are still just a "Lebron homer".

Just stop it, stop.

^^ This idiot is just straight up getting owned right now .

It was just a joke. Thanks for the insult though (and the pathetic neg to i guess), but you are very wrong and since you reacted this way i feel its you who probably "got owned", now go whine to your circle-jerk crew so you can mass-neg another great poster you cant debate or retaliate with, see how much i care about this "reputation" system.

[Batz]

I do sorry to say, unfortunately you dont. Ill break it down for you:
[QUOTE]
A Face-Up is when a player is catching the ball and facing up square with the basket. From this position, a post player can see the whole floor. If another defender rushes over to double team you, a teammate should cut and receive a pass for a wide open layup. If the your defender sags off too much, BOOM!, you rise up for the open jumper. What if the defense is too tight? Put the ball on the deck and take a hard jab step to the basket.

This is what Lebron is excellent at.

Right you got the right idea of what it is. But then you say Lebron is excellent at it? Not at all. Most of his misses, if not all of them against Detroit came off of his faceup isolations. So get a clue buddy.


Thats the way we retaliate huh? As far as Lebron goes, i have probably not missed a single game from him, i am basketball fan sorry to say i have not missed a game with Kobe since 1996 and not with Wade or not with many players actually, dont try your "ur teh Lebronze homerizm" here thank you very much.

It's not me retaliating, it's a legitimate wondering. It seems like you don't know how Lebron works. You continuesly contradict yourself and makeup stuff in the process. I'm just curious if you've been blindly following him.


True and from Facing Up, the point is not how he gets most of his points, the point was made towards your ridicilous point "Lebrons faceup is more ineffective than his post game", dont try to slither your way out of this one.

I said it's just as ineffective. Maybe less. But it's not 'Excellent'. Don't kid yourself. Lebron struggles when he limits himself to these types of possessions and hurts his team alot.


Ofcourse it slows the offense, what do you expect? This is what ISO's do! Do you know anything about basketball?
No, it's slows him down and the team! Honestly do you know how Lebron operates!? :facepalm

Him and the offense being slown down is NOT GOOD for ANYONE but the defense. ****ing hell man get this through your skull already.



Care to elaborate? I have not heard anything but yackety yack "boohoo he sux, he is ineffective".

What too many big words for ya?


:facepalm

We can go back to the several .gifs if you like. Phong where ya at brah?


Thanks for the info?
Just thought I'd share a little something with you so when you get into your next argument you don't seem like a complete clueless tool.



Stopped caring right there.
Oh so we're gonna pretend Lebron doesn't get the benefit of the whistle? Hell lets go the Xmas day game, at one point late in the game I remember on Lebron drive everyone literally paused for 5 whole seconds because they were expecting a whistle. You can go back and check the thread a bunch of people (lakers fans and non-lakers fans) were lolin our asses off.. :oldlol:



So you deny anytime he posts up and is successful because of defense? How do we explain when he is successful against super defenders like tonight Tayshuan Prince and anybody else who tried or how about when he is not successful against the worst players in the NBA?
Tayshaun Prince supardafandar!?


Like what is this 2004? :oldlol:

Prince, and the pistons haven't been relevant on defense for years. Prince has massively degraded on defense, not to mention it takes a team to stop players like Lebron/Wade/Durant/Kobe etc etc. Kinda nice when a 6'11 twig and an undersized rookie are guarding the paint, you got another 6'9 grandpa twig on ya and you got Tmac and Ben Gordan rotating around you. Seriously what a nightmare defensive team. Bravo Lebron.

And besides, most of Lebron's points weren't off isolation, whether it be posting up or faceups, it was everything else.


You have absolutely no proof of that, you know that yourself. I am a basketball fan first and foremost, i dont hate Lebron, i dont love Lebron, but i appreciate his game and i will criticise him when he diserve it and i will respect him when he diserves it and i will correct the incorrect statements about him (like yours) with facts, same goes with all players Kobe, Wade, Dwight, Durant, CP3, Nash, Ibaka, Ilgauskas, Vujacic, whoever you like!

Just stop it, stop.

Honestly it doesn't take a batch of proof to realize you're in every other Lebron related thread abusing your keyboard.

So I won't stop it, stop. :oldlol:

[donald_trump]

with or without this 'post game' he still manages to be the best player in the game by a fair margin. that in itself is impressive.

[magnax1]

He actually has posted up quite a bit lately. Though he sucks because he
-Gets pushed back to the perimeter (he's the definition of soft in the post)
-Just doesn't have the capability to make those shots yet.

[winwin]

Lebron should be working out with Hakeem


:rolleyes:

[The-Legend-24]

:roll:

When the dust settles, he'll realize that he's been robbed by Kobe.

:lol :lol :lol No wonder he's working out with Hakeem.
