This has to be the most beta moment thus far. It's not even close.

Alpha:
- LeBron vs Raptors/Celtics clutch performances
- LeBron stiff arming Pierce and dunking it
- LeBron sitting vs Durant only to play vs Anthony Davis the next day, his true rival.

Beta:
- Everything about Derrick Rose

It's alpha because he was willing to sit, despite knowing the criticism that would ensue

Criticism doesn't matter in this situation.

He passes in the clutch all the time and gets criticized for it. Doesn't make it alpha though.

Because he's alpha enough to withstand being called a beta

LeBron James everyone. Alpha enough to withstand being called a beta, after all these years.

It's cute how OKC fans/Lebron haters think a regular season game means anything to someone who's been to the Finals 4 straight years. Get over it, your boy lost, and cried to his mama.

First person? Everyone opening this thread knew Lebron would be listed as a beta.

Way to ignore my main point, though. A regular season game means nothing to Lebron. If you think Lebron was scared of Durant or some silly shit like that, you're funny.

A regular season game means nothing to Lebron.

The same LeBron who played the whole 4th quarter of a blowout just to statpad vs the Bobcats?

Uh, okay.... :lol

You honestly think that Lebron has anything to prove during the regular season at this point in his career? I know you don't, and are just trolling, but still. Cavs were in middle of 5 games in 7 nights, he obviously thought he needed a break for whatever reason.

:lol

These guys can never not defend LeBron, shit is hilarious.

The argument for LeBron s sometimes not shooting at the end of games being beta has always been that he is afraid to shoot because he doesn't want to be criticized for missing. Which is 100% not true since he gets more criticism for not shooting than he does when he shoots and misses. Therefore LeBron making the right play at the end of the game = ALPHA.

They had a game against a much easier opponent the next night. Why didn't he take that game off instead? Dude was simply afraid to play Durant and OKC, period. :oldlol: Had to run off and find the quickest excuse.

Not sure why branstans are laughing about dubeta's garbage post. All that junk was from seasons past, not this season. So.. totally irrelevant. Will neg each of you as I'm able to.

This season? Only really beta moment was LeBeta sitting out against the reigning MVP only to go on to statpad the very next game in a blowout.

The bolded ones are quite similar, except LeBron didn't rush off in a huff after he made those statements.

I know you're trolling, but be less obvious.
