Harden's is "obviously" the worst of the bunch, but, he was the third option. He wasn't referred to as "1a/1b" :lol

Lebron James. I forget which years, he has so many finals losses it's hard to keep count at this point

Oh, so we're including injured players now?

This is a troll thread. LeBron 2011 is the worst of all time, agreed upon by pretty much everyone alive.

Lebron 2011 was the most efficient of the bunch, so I'm going with Kobe 2000 for chucking while Shaq carried. :coleman:

Harden, and it's not even remotely close. He already had the worst offensive series in that group, but when you factor in defense...it's ****ing laughable to pick anyone else.

If we're adjusting for player level, specifically the fact that Harden sucks ass and Lebron/Kobe/Wade are all-time greats, I guess you could go with 2011 Lebron or 2004 Kobe.

Bron 2011.

He shot blanks. The ovulation had taken place and all he needed to do was bust. He went limper than Limp Bizkits career.

To be fair, nobody takes Harden seriously, thats why I glanced over his name

Agreed, those numbers don't tell the whole story on how bad/invisible LeBron was in that series

Nah man, efficiency is what matters most. Check out this past finals. Lebron played as well as anyone could expect. Did you not see his FG%? Like 12/18 from threes? Dude was very efficient. Great efficiency. That's what we want to see out of our superstars in a finals when the rest of their team wets the bed. Just pure efficiency. Picking your spots, going into stealth mode for halves at a time.

We all know Kobe would have been chucking like crazy down 20 to the Spurs. Hell, he wouldn't have waited to be down 20. He'd be chucking down 5. And he wouldn't take halves off. Dude would be like 18-47. Can't have guys doing that. Gotta save yourself, and pick the right spots to try and score.

Haren had the worst finals performance but no one thought or thinks of him as a superstar player

so this is Lebron. He was worse in 07 but 11 has a special choke about it

lebron 2011 and then lebron 2007, since the rest weren't even 1st options of their own team.

He averaged 28 ppg. It is not like he limited himself to a handful of cherry picked shots a game.

:lol at chucking being glorified as "fighting" or "being alpha". Firing away when you are shooting a poor percentage because you are "being alpha" does not help your team. The goal should be the best shot for the team on every possession, not shooting for the sake of shooting.
