2/5 is good?

[Cocaine80s]

where the hell have you been milbuck?

[snipes12]

Kobe is the master, lebron is the king but jordan is the god of basketball

[nayte]

Agreed. Can't say I'm a big Lebron fan but he is doing right now what most said he couldn't do.

[Dresta]

Agreed. Can't say I'm a big Lebron fan but he is doing right now what most said he couldn't do.
Being really inefficient but still winning?

[warriorfan]

GOAT beta, shame he wasn't blessed with Alphaness...what a waste

[JebronLames]

He was much better in 2012-2014

[Eric Cartman]

Top 5 player of all time.

[VengefulAngel]

Being really inefficient but still winning?

He's actually doing what he does best, which is filling up the boxscore.

[nathanjizzle]

lebron is the best player in the midwest.

[MP.Trey]

You know someone is good when they play a good game, ISH blows up with like 20 hate topics and 5 positive topics. It happened with Kobe, it happens with LeBron and it would've happened with Jordan if ISH was around in the 80's and 90's.

[Straight_Ballin]

You know Lebald stands are insecure when Bron plays a good game, ISH blows up with like 20 stan topics. Stans trying to get as much as they can out of this east run before the inevitable 2/6.

Fixed

[Xoush]

All hating and trolling aside.

Bron is really ****ing good, no doubt. I hope he keeps playing like this in the finals so we get a competitive series and not a rape like last year.

[Taller than CP3]

Lebron is the best player to go to the Finals 5 times and only win 2 times.

Lebron's Isolations in Game 2 vs. Hawks



Today's spacing allows Lebron to face only 1 defender on strongside!!!.. Weakside floor-spreaders lure the rest away:

Same as Game 1.. Only 1 defender on strongside:

In GIF below from Game 2, spacing & defensive 3 seconds keeps weakside defenders out of paint, so Lebron gets wide open layup - but in previous eras, there was no spacing and paint-camping was legal, so there would've been SEVERAL defenders waiting in paint:

Today's spacing provides more space & time on isos than before:

http://gifsforum.com/images_new/gif/other/grand/d5a0b197808393565f7b2c84e18fb361.gif


It's clear as day - today's spacing and existence of weakside floor-spreaders lures defenders away from the strongside and enables players to face LESS defenders on the strongside than previous eras..

In addition to the porous strongside defense caused by weakside floor-spreaders, the spacing provides more time and room for players to operate.. It also combines with the bans on paint-camping and hand-checking to "open up the game" for perimeter players, as the league intended (http://www.nba.com/2009/news/features/04/09/stujackson/index.html).

What he's doing with this hobbled Cavs team is incredible, even in this weak East. The Hawks are still a tough team.

Lebron F*cks Really Good

I hate myself :facepalm

You already know whether Lebron f*ck's real good....

[Alamо]

The guy is a beast. Top 12 all time no question. Currently at that 11-12 spot for me, but he might move up to 10 after this season.

[ImKobe]

What he's doing with this hobbled Cavs team is incredible, even in this weak East. The Hawks are still a tough team.

Game 1: tied at the half, Lebron goes 4-13 with 1 assist and 2 TOs :biggums:
Game 2: 4-12 in the 2nd half

both games Cavs blew the hawks out in the 2nd half, and Lebron is shooting 32% and is averaging 3 assists and 2 TO a game in the 2nd halves of the first 2 games.

GOAT doe :rolleyes:

[avonbarksdale]

there is no argument that anyone is better than him

in the playoffs he is head and shoulders better than anyone

[VeeCee15]

people are stupid.

Kobe is 5/20 championship..for some 13 tries he didn't even make the finals

this 2/6 championship thing is bogus...lebron's been in the league how many years? anyway it doesn't make sense

the years you don't even make the finals..dont count? U weren't even good enough to make finals

[dunksby]

Yes, LeBron is really ****ing good, and whoever can't at least give him that is a hater.

[jayfan]

there is no argument that anyone is better than him

in the playoffs he is head and shoulders better than anyone

He hasn't even been head & shoulders above everyone on his own team.

[PJR]

Incredible player. Certainly not without flaws, but his impact on a team is undeniable, and mirrored by few.

[Killbot]

Is he? Never noticed
