Lets keep it real here, cause I am a Lebron fan (I just prefer Wade and Melo's game visually) but ****** dont even realize the thing that makes Lebron so great also makes him overrated. There has NEVER been a more ball dominant player in the history of sports, let alone the NBA. Lebron James plays the game with intentions to get his numbers, not to win games. I think its amazing that dude can focus so much on his numbers and still be the best in the game, but come on, if you put him with a coach that actually plays TEAM basketball (Spurs) Lebron would be not be putting up historic numbers as he does now with a coach that has no balls at all.

In the 1st year with the Heat, Bron was human, why, cause he had to share the load with Wade who was just as dominant as Bron was that year. I dont think Bron liked that, and you can tell that he and Spo has actually spoken about giving him the same role as he had on the Cavs. How do I know this, cause all of a sudden whenever Wade is having a better game he ALWAYS gets subbed out in order for Bron to get in the game and surpass his numbers (LMAO at a game where Wade was clearly having a better game, they were blowing the opponent out, but yet Bron plays the whole 4th and Wade did not touch the floor). I mean, WTF type of shit is this????? What about the fact that Wade does not even have plays ran for him anymore????? You mean to tell me that the coach thought it was a good idea to completely remove the Wade and whoever P&R.

What about the fact that Lebron always comes to get the ball at the end of quarters, but he never takes the ****in shot. I mean bro, WTF are you coming to get the ****in ball for. I can even understand him not wanting to mess up his FG%, but why the **** are you asking for the ball for when another ***** could get it and actually put a shot up with the possibility of a make, mannnn, GTFOH Lebron james, that shows me how much you care about numbers vs wins. I mean, this shit is not sometimes, watch the end of EVERY 1st quarter and see if you ever see Bron not coming to get the ball. Now look to see if you EVER see Bron actually take the half court shot, *****, you are wasting a ****in posession cause you dont want to miss a shot, so dont you think it would be a good idea to get the **** out of the way and let somebody else get it?????

I have a lot more, but ill wait until I get some replies. This is not a hate thread you bitch ass ******, just pointing out some aggravating shit I noticed.

Explain to me how a ***** who has not scored under 20 points all year and barely at all last year turns into a scrub when his teammate was outplaying him in the Finals. Explain to me why dude would not even take shots, why, cause he was uncomfortable with the fact that Wade would get credit if Miami had won in 2011 and there is no ***** that could convince me otherwise. Bron is still the exact same player he was 2 years ago, dude NEVER has BAD games, so how in the **** at the biggest stage can you barely average 15 shots per game and only 17 points, dude aint give a **** about winning no title unless he was the one who would get the credit for it. Yall can look at the shit however yall want to, but I feel how I feel because Brfon has showed that he plays for numbers his whole career, this shit aint new bruh.

are we gonna act like lebron hasnt actually come out and said publically

"i wanna win mvp every year" instead of "only thing that matters is a ring"

and

"my fg% means i could average as many points as i want. but i don't have to" instead of "only thing that matters is wins"

and

"i wanna get a triple double every night" instead of "it doesnt mean anything if we lose the game"

and

"check my stats" instead of "i just wanna win"

and

"lbj mvp" instead of "no i in team"





and are we gonna act like we havent seen lebron wait till the end of the q buzzer before launching a half court shot ( many many times )




its no secret. lebron cares about his stats more than any other player in the nba. i think he'l be worse than iverson if his minutes and shots, time with the ball is cut down later in his career. he'l keep refusing to play or demanding a trade till he retires at age 34

it's easy to accidentally bump into a ring when you are as talented as he is

but you can't deny that lebron cares a lot more about filling that stat sheet and getting those PER titles than just about anybody in history.

He's one of these new school players raised in an era of "advanced" stats who are trying to manipulate their box scores so they can be praised by those standards

so if he plays for stats and not for wins, how come the Heat are winning and he keeps missing A LOT of triple doubles? you would expect Lebron to have a lot of trip dubs by now if he was playing for stats.

There has NEVER been a more ball dominant player in the history of sports, let alone the NBA. Lebron James plays the game with intentions to get his numbers, not to win games.Any star point guard has the ball more than Lebron. 42% of his shot attempts come from iso/p&r0. The other 58% are from transition, post up, spot up, cuts, mostly plays initiated off the ball. He plays point half the time on offense, because he's by far the most effective on the team.


I think its amazing that dude can focus so much on his numbers and still be the best in the game, but come on, if you put him with a coach that actually plays TEAM basketball (Spurs) Lebron would be not be putting up historic numbers as he does now with a coach that has no balls at all.The Spurs wouldn't play like the Spurs if they had Lebron.


In the 1st year with the Heat, Bron was human, why, cause he had to share the load with Wade who was just as dominant as Bron was that year. I dont think Bron liked that, and you can tell that he and Spo has actually spoken about giving him the same role as he had on the Cavs. If Lebron acted like that, you think Wade, and the Heat organization would tolerate it? Everyone, including Wade was asking Lebron to take a bigger share of the load in 2012.


How do I know this, cause all of a sudden whenever Wade is having a better game he ALWAYS gets subbed out in order for Bron to get in the game and surpass his numbers Wade is Spoelstra's guy, do you really think he'd sabotage him so Lebron's stats could be superior? Do you really think head coaches in the NBA think like that?


(LMAO at a game where Wade was clearly having a better game, they were blowing the opponent out, but yet Bron plays the whole 4th and Wade did not touch the floor). I mean, WTF type of shit is this????? Spoelstra likes to keep one of the big 3 in, even when there's a big lead, because he's afraid of opposing teams making a run, and his stars all being cooled off. Wade plays fewer minutes, because he's injury prone, and has poor conditioning. Lebron is one of the most durable, and well conditioned players in the NBA.


What about the fact that Wade does not even have plays ran for him anymore????? You mean to tell me that the coach thought it was a good idea to completely remove the Wade and whoever P&R.Wade takes 16.5 shots per 36, Lebron takes 17.6. Wade takes 3.4 shots/TO off P&R per game. Lebron takes 3.1. Wade averages 3.6 per 36 min, Lebron averages 2.9. The numbers are slightly skewed by the fact that Lebron passes more often, but the fact is Wade gets to play P&R just as much, or more when he's on the court.

1. I remember many times where Lebron would have a 20 point 1st quarter or 35 point first half or something ridiculous like that...and then he'd end up with 44 points for the whole game.

That right there showed us he didn't care about going for 60 or 50 or whatever.



2. And then of course there are also the 32 point/9 assist/ 12 rebound or the 33 point/12 assist/ 8 rebound nights of his that happen all the time...if he really cared about stats he would go for the triple double.











3. ...and oh yeah, there is also the thing that many of you even said yourself when you criticized him... You said that he went to Miami to get any easy ring or two. Well, if he didn't care about rings then why would you have said that? :roll:

I came into this thread ready to flame the Op but he has a point about Lebron being ball dominant and when you think about it it relates to why the Cavs were great in the regular season, but never able to get over the hump in the playoffs(among other reasons too) the last thing I would call Lebron is overrated and who cares if he plays for stats as long as he wins rings.

Oh and Dwyane Wade still sucks

LeBron is still far off from catching Jordan.

That talk is real premature. He would have to do something crazy like lead this Heat team to say 4 titles in a row...something Jordan never did (because he retired). Or maybe 5....winning Finals and League MVP's each year...then I will call him the GOAT as well.

I will say he has the talent and skills to give him a chance to do it.
Lot of factors play in to this though....and the biggest one is TIME.
He can get injured...how will he adjust his game when he loses his speed etc.
Can he adjust mentally and physically?

Jordan did that well.

disagree.....

first off the title alone - james is not a GOAT candidate at this point. potential to be yes, but as of this point he is not.

second- this seems agenda driven, and calling yourself a "fan" is a means to an end. if you would have posted this after the '11 season it would make sense, but now that you post it a year after he wins the championship makes it seem out of context.

you are entitled to your opinion though, but if you are not aiming to win a championship, then why go for a big market team when you could have stayed in cleveland, be a hometown hero without winning anything, not be the reason your team fails, and not be the most hated man in the NBA?

Well its obvious that Lebron wants the most games with 20 in a first half and then less than 15 in the second half. Its a stat geek thing.

2. And then of course there are also the 32 point/9 assist/ 12 rebound or the 33 point/12 assist/ 8 rebound nights of his that happen all the time...if he really cared about stats he would go for the triple double.


Its obvious that he wants the most games where he just misses the triple double.

Its obvious Lebron went to a team where he would lead his team in the playoffs in (points, assist, FG% among starters) rebounding and steals despite Bosh and Wade having previously been better in those two categories. Lebron injured Bosh and Wade to make these things happen. So teams could focus on him primarily and this, in some strange way, would increase his PER.

Of course I agree with you tmacattack33 but its is funny how these conclusions come about. Lebron has that 20 point first half nearly once every five games. And he never pushes the issue.

What's ridiculous is that I thought you were a real Lebron hater after I read your first two points there (about Lebron going for the most 20 point first halves...and the most near triple doubles), because those comments sound like real comments made from people who are so mad about Lebron's success.




For instance, just before entering this thread and reading your post I read this post in another thread about Lebron...

"he is definitely a stat whore. he stole bosh's and wade's stats. so basically everyone will think he himself is a god while they will think wade and bosh are scrubs nowadays. funny how he supposedly had this moniker that he makes everyone around him better, meanwhile he goes to a team and turns everyone worse. go figure"

That quote sounds very similar to your post, and is just as ridiculous as everything you said besides the part where you said Lebron purposefully injured Wade and Bosh.

Lebron is one of the greatest basketball players of all time but he sure has a hard time releasing a prayer of a shot prior to the end of quarter without the buzzer sounding keeping his precious field goal percentage in tact.

I've seen it numerous times. The slight chance one of those goes in isn't worth the field goal percentage drop for him. :confusedshrug:

There are aspects of LeBron than can be viewed as overrated, but it's mostly negated because of the positives he can bring. OP does bring some valid reasons, though.

I don't view LeBron as a GOAT candidate right now. He probably won't end up the GOAT either.

Hustling to pay for it. :confusedshrug:

Besides, it's not like America is a 3rd world country.

What's ridiculous is that I thought you were a real Lebron hater after I read your first two points there (about Lebron going for the most 20 point first halves...and the most near triple doubles), because those comments sound like real comments made from people who are so mad about Lebron's success.

For instance, just before entering this thread and reading your post I read this post in another thread about Lebron...

"he is definitely a stat whore. he stole bosh's and wade's stats. so basically everyone will think he himself is a god while they will think wade and bosh are scrubs nowadays. funny how he supposedly had this moniker that he makes everyone around him better, meanwhile he goes to a team and turns everyone worse. go figure"

That quote sounds very similar to your post, and is just as ridiculous as everything you said besides the part where you said Lebron purposefully injured Wade and Bosh.

I thought I was being crazy ridiculous. I saw the year when Jordan made it a point to average 8 assist and it was very obvious he was aiming toward that end but the amazing thing about his game was that his scoring was still just as off the hook as it ever was. Whatever else was gravy, but nobody ever brought he was going to ever average that again and that it was part of his natural game, but he could do it and still be efficient was the great thing about him. Lebron always had the all around efficient game. He's been asked to rebound more to help his team and he can do while it doesn't sacrifice the other aspects of his game.

You make some good points but since you made controversial statements some people are not going to take you seriously if you know what i mean. Lebrons ball dominance can be a negative at times but for now people really don't notice it because he is playing so good. All stars in the nba have annoying things they do but these things are not noticed until the players start playing under expectations.
