Regular season: 27/7/6/2/.3 18 shots per game 57% 38 minutes per game

Playoffs: 27/7/5/2/.6 17 shots per game on 56% 39 minutes per game

Really odd to see a teams number one option shoot less in the playoffs than he he did in the regular season.

Compared to Jordan @ age 29

Regular season: 33/7/6/3/1. 26 shots per game on 50% FG. 39 minutes per game

Playoffs: 35/7/6/3/1. 28 shots per game on 48% FG 41 minutes per game


Kobe @ 29

Regular season: 28/6/5/2/.5. 21 shots per game on 46% 39 minutes per game

Playoffs: 30/6/6/2/.4. 22 shots per game on 48%. 41 minutes per game

Each player reached the finals, Jordan won, Kobe lost, Lebron tbd

Ill do Kobe as a 30 year old when he won a ring to show what his reg season/ playoffs looked like when he won since Lebron will prolly win this year.

Reg season: 27/5/5/1.5/.5. 21 shots per game, 47%. 36 minutes per game

Playoffs: 30/5/6/2/1. 23 shots per game. 46%. 41 minutes per game.

Now Lebron might go off in the finals and raise those numbers but to me it seems that both Jordan & Kobe (especially Jordan) were each forced to carry more of the load when the playoffs began, each upped their shots per game, their scoring per game while loging more minutes.

Is it that Lebron is playing on a more well rounded team than these two guys which leads to him not having to "step up" his game as much come playoff time?

LeBron tends to raise his game and play with more urgency when his back is against the wall. That hasn't happened yet with the historically shit EC. He's done enough for his team to get into the finals pretty much unscathed, nothing to hate on really.

Will be interesting to see how he performs against Spurs. He'll need to be at his best for the Heat to win I think.

lebron got way less foul calls during the regular season, so thats probably why he doesnt have as much fga in the playoffs

Those numbers would be better if not for game 5. I have never seen a top player treated like that by refs in the playoffs.

Last year his assist and scoring numbers in the playoffs were down from his regular season scoring and assist numbers too tho

In fact, 3/4 playoffs runs with the heat his scoring has gone down in the playoffs compared to regular season.

In 2011 his assist & scoring both went down from regular season to playoffs

In 2012 his assist went down from regular season to playoffs

In 2013 his assist & scoring went down from regular season to playoffs

No shit because bran plays 40 win teams in the playoffs and has a crazy stacked team. The heat would have made the finals without him..

And no Lebron doesn't raise his game /stats in the finals. If you've ever watched him he sucks in the finals and pads his stats in garbage time games

during this playoff run, that was completely possible, bobcats are a certain, nets they might have struggled, pacers in the state they were in with wade and bosh playing the way they were, they couldve beat them

Uh, you don't even have to crack .500 to make the playoffs in the east dipshit. You honestly think a Wade and Bosh duo wouldn't make the playoffs in the ****ing Eastern conference? :facepalm

:lol :lol
Funny how other people are noticing it..

Heat without bran easily beat the bobcats and nets. Pacers barely beat the hawks and wiz the heat would have still beat them..


Lebron even said it himself he teamed up so it'll be easy, why are his stans still trying to argue he has it so tough and he has to do it all himself:facepalm
