Dat footwork doe. :pimp:

[Black and White]

No offense but it looks awkward and erratic

[Illuminati]

The only one that isn't really nice is the first one, the rest are tremendous post moves.

[poido123]

It's no coincidence that he was practicing his post moves against the Bobcats :lol

That first gif is laughable. He he had his back to the defender and basically went up under the hoop.

The rest were ok though, but still look kinda forced and disjointed.

[AnaheimLakers24]

boring player.

[Angel Face]

Doesn't look natural, Lacks Artistry...

[Black and White]

The last one is ok, but not the first few

[hitmanyr2k]

Not much of a clinic and it's not fluid but Lebron certainly has improved. At least the guy isn't getting befuddled after the first move is cut off. 2 years ago he would have switched his pivot foot and thrown up some garbage.

[HoopDreams247]

This has to be a joke thread lmao

[chips93]

The only one that isn't really nice is the first one, the rest are tremendous post moves.

lebron built a great post up game by getting easy looks, hook shots, and shots right at the basket. thats how he beat up on the pacers, not by using a fadeaway.

[Mixmewithbutter]

Doesn't look natural, Lacks Artistry...
It's going in no?

[STATUTORY]

looks mechanical and forced

shits worse than Peyton yelling Omaha for the broadcast's sake

[ballup]

Those were well made shots and MKG defended Lebron solidly. You also have to credit the rest of the Bobcats for not helping well enough in the first and 3rd plays. The Heat do a good job of providing spacing. Lebron came quite a ways from the time Tony Allen embarrassed him.

[salwan]

:roll:

[Wang Zhi Zhi]

too bad he started 5-5 and went away from the post completely

[Fudge]

So awkward and stiff looking. How are these nice? :confusedshrug:

[J Shuttlesworth]

He was 5/5 with post ups. Who has the gifs when he hit 3 turnarounds in a row in the post against the Mavs earlier this year?

[Mixmewithbutter]

So awkward and stiff looking. How are these nice? :confusedshrug:
He's 6'8 and 260 pounds and because they're going in and working?

[r0drig0lac]

good for him that are trying to improve your weaknesses

[Fudge]

He's 6'8 and 260 pounds and because they're going in and working?
And so are 80% of other starting PF/C's in the league that have post moves. :confusedshrug:

I commented on the aesthetics of his post game. Just because they're going in and "working" doesn't mean they're nice.

[hahaitme]

Dude can't cop a break on this forum. It's pretty obvious he's trying to incorporate more and more post play into his game to prepare for his later years. What did people expect, he was going to show up to a game one day and suddenly look like Hakeem? Shit takes time

[BigMacAttack]

Out of all the all time greats(top 10-20,) is there anyone with a more awkward and clunky looking game?

[Bandito]

What footwork?

[Illuminati]

Honestly, who really gives a shit how nice he made it look.

1) Was it a post up? ✓
2) Did it go in? ✓

The rest isn't important.

[Black and White]

Looks good from the post one game = tremendous post player.

Last one was good, almost Kobe-esque

[Rose'sACL]

he has been good this whole season. he has done better than he did yesterday in many games this season. if you don't double him in the post then he is going to score on you. this was pretty visible in ECF last season when he was 1-on-1 with paul george and he torched him which forced indiana to change scheme and make hibbert help george as soon as lebron got anywhere near the basket.

[russwest0]

One of the ugliest post games ever.

Now I see why he is Silkk's fav player

[AnaheimLakers24]

ugly player with an ugly game

Kobe stans mad that LeBron is better than Kobe at every aspect of the game. :oldlol: Don't worry. Hop on that Durant bandwagon, maybe some day he'll be better than LeBron.

His body isn't liquid, it's mechanical. That was about as graceful as it comes for LeBron's post work. His jumper is mechanical, as is his footwork or upper body movement. Please don't act like it was some sexy move or something. He's getting better, but he still isn't the most fluid player in the post. It was good, not great. Hop off his johnson, Silk.

Yup. And he didn't kick his leg out like Kobe did either.

You can't be serious?

[HoopsFanNumero1]

You can't be serious?

Can I not?

[Black and White]

Can I not?

Firstly, it can't be the Dirk fadeaway without the leg kick (it just becomes a normal fadeaway) and Kobe's looks much more fluid

[Illuminati]

Please tell me how Kobe's is more fluid? Is it because the GIF is more smoother? The GIF is more clear and crisp? Or is it because the GIF goes into slow motion when Kobe goes up for the shot?

[r0drig0lac]

this, the more I think this talk of goat lebron is absolute bullshit and he plays the weakest of all time was, I remember him destroying PG in the post, so if it's aesthetically beautiful no matter, the guy is efficient

[Trollsmasher]

Kobe being more fluid is a dogma! You can't challenge it, but if you try, those fools won't be able to answer:lol

[Black and White]

It's probably because Kobe's jumpshot looks much better, Bron has an ugly jumpshot.

[HoopsFanNumero1]

Well the leg kick is supposed to be an offensive foul now, so Lebron did do it better in the gif :confusedshrug:

But all of ISH (except some LeBron stans) know that Kobes jumpshot is much more fluid than LeBrons, even the most die hard LeStans know this in the back of their heads, they just won't admit it.

So are you talking about footwork not being fluid, jumpshots not being fluid or what? Make up your damn mind.

Typical sheep

[Black and White]

Both, his footwork is erratic, and his jumpshot isn't fluid, overall his game is ugly.

Doesn't mean it isn't effective tho.

[STATUTORY]

Please tell me how Kobe's is more fluid? Is it because the GIF is more smoother? The GIF is more clear and crisp? Or is it because the GIF goes into slow motion when Kobe goes up for the shot?

Plainly obvious to anyone who's not blind. Kobe's motions are more graceful and organic. Bron looks stiff and mechanical, gotta stop reading them boxscores, it's ruining your eyes brah :oldlol:

No:confusedshrug:

You could probably use a bigger sample size than few 15fps gifs (OP:facepalm ) though. MJ would not look fluid in that.

Anyone who has been watching LeBron in the post regularly this season can't say he is not fluid.

It's never going to be the so called 'artistric' post game (what the hell is that even supposed to mean? Completly useless term for evaluating post game), but that does not mean it's not fluid.

His post game has never been smooth, his feet are constantly stepping and jabbing for no reason, he looks like he is about to fall down and have a seizure sometimes, thats how erratic it can get.

what makes dirks fadeaway is that its off of one foot, not that he kicks out his leg.

often that leg kick will get called for an offensive foul.

LaMarcus was posting up Tim Duncan the other night and looking damn good. I was impressed with his footwork.

[I<3NBA]

i don't consider a fadeaway a post-up. up and under, hook shot, baby hooks, layups, dunks all after backing down his man are the real post up moves. fadeaway is a jumper. it's a cop out from a failed post up.

kids today :facepalm smh

If he is better and more skilled in the post, he should be at least be somewhat close even though he is posting up bigger guys (and he is bigger than LeBron too), shouldn't he?

I think Aldridge shoots to many midrange Js and he is not much of a finisher.

Even Dwight has higher FG% from the post

Dwight's high percentage also factors in alley-oops and putback dunks, they are hardly an indicator of post-play, this proves my point that stats aren't everything because we all know Dwight sucks in the post.

No I am not. I am just saying that LaMarcus is not better than LeBron (or really even close to him). Completly dismissing stats is just stupid.

I was pretty surprised about how low LaMarcus is, but he really is not an effective player. I know effectivness is not everything, but 40% FG from the post?

Trollsmasher and Illuminati putting in work!

[Black and White]

No I am not. I am just saying that LaMarcus is not better than LeBron (or really even close to him). Completly dismissing stats is just stupid.

I was pretty surprised about how low LaMarcus is, but he really is not an effective player. I know effectivness is not everything, but 40% FG from the post?

It's all subjective, LaMarcus faces tougher defenders in the post, they are more physical, I'm not saying numbers aren't everything but to use them to suggest LeBron is better in the post is silly, look at the people LeBron posts up.

[HoopsFanNumero1]

I'm noticing an interesting pattern on this site. All the Durant stans are barely literate.

[BigMacAttack]

Besides the guys that are already mentioned, Al Jefferson has a better offensive post game then Lebron, Scola aswell.

**** the stats, LBJ isnt the best post player in the L, kill that thought right now.

[Fudge]

Kevin Durant shit huh? Just like last season against Memphis in the playoffs. A series of chokes in the fourth quarter like none ever before. A 90% FT shooter, shooting something like 50% in crunch time. :oldlol: Dat boy need his Batman.
Paranoid, insecure post, bro.

AND random, bro. Lets keep this non-NBA related. We'll talk about the best player in the league later, kool?

Because one article calls Lebron the best post player these idiots forget everything they have seen and run with it.

Anybody who watches a moderate amount of NBA can surely see LBJ does not have the best post game in the league.People need to stop letting espn do their thinking for them.

[SHAQisGOAT]

Props to him for making the shot, nice fadeaways but still a bit awkward and you're praising the footwork? That was pretty average footwork.

Read the article. Don't just read the title and look at the pic.

I read the article, yes his numbers have gone up, it means he is doing the right thing, but just because that one guy says it does it mean it's true? Jefferson, Cousins and David West primarly score from the post, so naturally they have higher chances of missing shots there, doesn't mean it counts against them just because they are posting up tougher competition.

[BigMacAttack]

:facepalm

Read the article. Don't just read the title and look at the pic.

The only stats in that article is a comparison of James against his previous seasons, the only thing that says he is the best post player is opinion. Basically that shit is weak and you are reaching son.

Kobe being more fluid is a dogma! You can't challenge it, but if you try, those fools won't be able to answer:lol

Don't discredit it, but you should also understand how subjective that is, you need to look beyond the stats and 1 article, or are you that narrow minded? His post game is a work in progress and is nowhere near best in the league.

I am looking at the context but the difference in numbers is simply too big to ignore. He is one of the best post players in the league.

That is of course paired with the fact that there aren't any great post players in the league. Those guys I put in my post would be pretty mediocre in the '90.

Bron has clearly improved his post up game since he left Cleveland, by a good margin. Don't know about best in the league, but he has some pretty reliable go to moves with his back to the basket. And as the numbers show, no one in the league is better at finishing from the block.

Lebron has improved his Offensive game since coming into the league, no question about it. But that being said he's still not much to brag about in the post, and his mid range game ain't all that either.

It really isn't.

Bron won the 2012 finals from the post. Hes been one of, if not, the most unstoppable post player in the league since then. Hes the most efficient scorer down there in the league, and factor in his height and passing ability, and hes seriously one of the best post players down low.
Which bit is disputable?

Bron was always a pretty efficient scorer down there regardless of the gifs people post. Now hes more interested in getting down there more often, and hes got a variety of moves he uses. Hes one of the best, if not the best at getting post position and sealing his man in the league.

[Indian guy]

Oh wow :oldlol: :oldlol: :lol :lol :banana: :hammerhead: :hammerhead: :hammerhead:

Get this guy some help. It's unhealthy to be this delusional..

As already posted a few pages ago, statistics clearly point towards him as the most effective post scorer in the league today. Then you have an EC scout merely reaffirming what facts and the eye-test show -
"He is the best post-up player in the league, really," the scout said. "You used to be able to get him to take jumpers in the post, but now he is smarter, he is able to get by you and get himself an easy basket. It's a nightmare. He is that much more efficient."

Now, take a look at a few aspects of James’ post game over the last four years — the frequency with which he would go to the rim out of the post, his overall efficiency (points per possession) on post-up possessions and his rank within the league in post efficiency:
Season To rim PPP Rank
2010-11 13.7% 1.043 4
2011-12 14.9% 0.959 5
2012-13 15.0% 0.972 4
2013-14 29.6% 1.185 1


I can see why haters are so mad. Factoring in LeBron's size and passing ability, he has a strong case for best post-up player in the NBA. Just watch the games. Teams now instantly double him when he gets the ball down low. Heck, Bobcats the other day were doubling him in the post even when he was simply fighting for position.

[Rose'sACL]

at least lebron is a better post up player than durant. durant must be worse then i guess. i can assure you that scouting report about heat these days must say that lebron should not be left 1-on-1 in the post or he will score.
he scores everytime 1-on-1 against players of his height and size. you need bigs like hibbert to help guys like PG who people here call a really good defender. remember how bad he made george look when hibbert wasn't doubling lebron in post?
i think he scored like 5-6 baskets in a few minutes when that happened.

why do lebron's detractors always ignore the stats? :confusedshrug:


stats > youtube clips lol
worst part is that they post gifs from a few seasons back.

[russwest0]

at least lebron is a better post up player than durant. durant must be worse then i guess. i can assure you that scouting report about heat these days must say that lebron should not be left 1-on-1 in the post or he will score.
he scores everytime 1-on-1 against players of his height and size. you need bigs like hibbert to help guys like PG who people here call a really good defender. remember how bad he made george look when hibbert wasn't doubling lebron in post?

That awkward moment when Durants post up stats were significantly better than LeBrons last season.

I'd have to find them for this season.

they are better than durant this season. more percentage of lebron's total shots are in post compared to durant. he scores more per possesion than durant and has better fg% than durant there.
Durant is leading the mvp race this season so lets talk about this season.
You are like those idiots who are posting gifs of lebron form a few seasons ago.

Yes, and ones third toughest team in the conference is the Toronto Raptors, a team that would be third worst in the West.

Stay blinded with an agenda :pimp: :pimp: :pimp: :pimp:

are you saying that lebron's ppg should be higher for his career because he played in the east his whole career which is pretty much always better defensively?

Prove that it's better defensively :facepalm

It's not. It always has 1 or 2 great defensive teams, but the rest are all trash. The trash teams are usually the ones lebron play in the 1st and 2nd rounds.

i just posted an image above your post. 7 out of top 10 are from east. time for you to post from russwest0 alt now. I bet if rep was enabled, i would be getting more red bars because of this ether on multi alt idiots like you.

i thought it's a well known fact that teams in the east historically play better defense? any common any nba fan should already know this.

Opponent ppg doesn't tell the whole story, dumbass. You gotta look at opponent FG% too among with other stats. Obvious Pacers is right, their opp FG is at 40%. However, look at Knicks. You really think they're the 10th best defensive team in the league? With no tyson chandler the whole way while Amare and Bargnani is in the middle? Then you look at their opp FG and you see 46%.

Contrary of the 7 seconds dantoni offense, if a team uses 22 seconds for every offensive possession, naturally their opponent ppg will be low. It that considered good D also?

Perhaps you shouldn't be so simple minded, no?

perhaps you should read that i was talking about ppg. Why sould FG% apple at all given that it doesn't apply to kobe? i am just using stats that you use to say that kobe is better than lebron.
More points for team means more point of their main scorer. FG% is a topic westbrook and kobe fans should not talk about.

[russwest0]

Wait a minute, you're judging the Eastern defenses based off PPG?

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

They get to face eachother on offense every night, they BETTER allow a low PG.

You're a jackass. :oldlol: :oldlol:

Not so agressive now huh?
I don't know what you're talking about as I just looked at the last page and saw you saying the East is much better defensively, and you backed it up with those stats. Which I am taking apart now.

Like I said, if a team takes 20 second for an offensive possession, their opponent ppg will naturally be low as well. Also, if two crappy east teams play each other and both lack scorers in their teams and the score ends up being 70-71, that doesn't mean those 2 teams have great defense.

Hopefully I've made this clear enough. Opponent PPG does not convert to "best defensive team"

i guess this is why miami always prefers playing western teams. Offense is always more open against most western teams as compared to against eastern teams.
If durant can be the mvp leader based on half a season then lebron can be better post up player based stats of half a season.
also, i never reply to you but sorry that i did. russwest0 dissapeared because he couldn't prove durant is better in the post and now you are arguing against kobe's main strength just to prove that east has been weaker defensively.

Yeah.. Lebron would rather play Blazers, Thunder, Warriors, Spurs, Clippers, Rockets, etc daily than to play Magic, Bucks, Boston, 76ers, Cavs daily :roll:

Sure.

why not? heat has had great Win% against west. i think think it was even better than their win% against east.
now you'll come up with another excuse...... this is really my last reply to you though.

[Mr. Jabbar]

thread is proof bran and game footage are not a good a compliment, the eye-test backfired on him once again. his stans should stick to boxscores

[SwayDizzle]

i don't consider a fadeaway a post-up. up and under, hook shot, baby hooks, layups, dunks all after backing down his man are the real post up moves. fadeaway is a jumper. it's a cop out from a failed post up.

kids today :facepalm smh
yesssss, exactly what I was thinking.

[Illuminati]

Miami has 1 loss this season from the western conference and that's to the Kings. The rest are from eastern conference. I'd say LeBron/Heat would be delighted to play in the no defense West.

they lost to warriors. still, miami does better against west than against east.
10-2 against west. 19-9 against east.

[Illuminati]

Basically to sum this thread up: LeBron is the best post player in the league, backed up with stats and facts. But according to the haters, he's not even top 5 because he's not posting up big players, his game isn't fluid, and he makes it look awkward.

[Illuminati]

Oh yea. :cheers: They were on a 19 game win streak against the West. Beating teams like OKC, Spurs, etc.

Implying the east isnt one of the worst conferences in a while. Theyre also going up against better offenses out west. The west has 8 out of the top 15 defenses, and ALL top 13 offenses outside of Miami. East has all bottom 7 offenses.
