It's glossed over for some crazy reason. The 4 on 5's, leaving 5 min before the final buzzer.. Spitting on the game of basketball as per usual and people still talk about him climbing on the all time list every single season. And how many prime years does he need to catch Kobe's ring count? 10 prime years for Kobe, no superteams in a weak conference like lebron and still 5/7. Lebron needs 20 prime healthy seasons maybe? excuses and lies. Stats tho.

Going 2-2 when injured AD played then losing 2 consecutive blowouts losses when AD did not play exposed Lebron real bad last playoffs. Not only that, Lebron by his own doing showed everyone how he quit on his team when AD was not around. And yet here we are, the effort he puts in recruitment is so much more than the effort he made in their last 2 playoff games last year playing without AD.

It is a known fact that he stops hustling when he sees too much adversity in front of him. If it's going to be a hard uphill 4th quarter or playoffs he just starts to have this distant gaze in his eyes and his effort vanishes. Saw it first hand when he was in Cleveland playing against Boston years ago and yes, it's not gone away it's just part of his personality. You will never see him "come from behind" like 15 down to miraculously close a game he had no business winning because he's just not that kind of player, he's a frontrunner only.

Not that every player is like that it's definitely only a rarified few that try against the odds like that but he's definitely not one of those kinds of players, because he visibly gives up as if he truly believes "what's the point". That's where I think this deck stacking behavior comes from - If the deck is stacked properly from the start he isn't as likely to be seen by fans sinking like this. He knows how he is so he tries his best to recruit talent and help cover it up by keeping odds stacked heavily in his favor.

Facts.

I witnessed this firsthand when he went to the Lakers and finally got to see his game on a nightly basis. His body language just completely changes when the chips are down. He becomes less jovial, he is far less vocal on the court. He becomes passive and defers ball handling duties to someone else. He settles for jump shots and ceases to go aggressive at the rim. This was especially obvious during that first disastrous season with the lakers. Whenever we were down big in the fourth quarter, he begins to isolate himself from his teammates and is the first to head to the locker room after the whistle sounds for the final time.

This is a big contrast to a player like Kobe who was always a part of those memorable laker comebacks including those classic series’ against Celtics, Portland and Sacramento.

I'm not even trolling on this take a look:

https://youtu.be/pEnRjBJqTy0?t=7089

The Cavs are down a lot with 4 minutes to go in a do or die must win game. The Celtics walk the ball up slowly to kill the clock. What does LeBron do? Gives them space to ALLOW them to kill the clock and secure victory.

What does 40 year old 400lb low-post specialist Shaq immediately do? He recognizes that LeBron gave up on playing defense to throw the game so he hustles up from the low post to force some action and try to gain possession more quickly and not allow the towel to be thrown in. That's the ONLY way to keep "trying" and everyone who's ever played basketball knows this including Shaq who was always a killer in the Playoffs. Anyone who's ever played the game knows LeBron quit that series, and it's not the only series he's quit.

Now, yes I recognize the odds of him climbing back were low. But I also recognize that that doesn't matter to some players, they want to fight tooth and nail no matter what. And that is the more respectable road IMHO. I respected Shaq more after I watched that game. I respected LeBron less. LeBron acts like Eeyore thinking to himself "what's the point."

So I have no doubt OP is telling the truth that LeBron put his head down and gave up this Playoffs, already probably thinking to himself "how do I stack the deck better for next season." as his strategy to win as opposed to actually trying to play hard the rest of the game or series.

a couple of choice games does not change that his mentality is overwhelmingly of someone’s who doesn’t have the drive/will to change the game when the odds are against him, he can front run and close games out, but leading a comeback consistently like other all time greats before him is just not his thing

It's front running because every single one of those teams was a strategically stacked deck before the start of the season with guys that refused to quit in 4th quarters able to carry his deficits if he ever tried to slump like he did against Boston again.

I already told you he has confidence when he feels he has a chance. He just loses all his confidence when he feels he stands no chance. This isn't a knock on him - it's common for a lot of folks to quit while they're down. But some players never quit, that's all, he's just not one of those types.

LOTS of Laker Fans don't like Lebron. Inside and outside of SoCal. We hope he plays well but we ain't loyal to him. He ain't loyal to the teams he plays for. He's only loyal to his brand. Let's face it. He's kinda a douche

By the way, Bron joined my Laker team when it was a lottery team and no stars wanted to come.


Saved the Lakers franchise from forever mediocrity. Brought AD 1 year later. And now contending for championships.


We Laker fans owe Bron a statue the minute he leaves our team or retires.

Yall weak bitches.

Nice pictures but he's still a quitter and the real funny part is aside from a few moments throughout his career he has been roadblocked from making comebacks due to his lack of basketball fundamentals as a fu*king basketball player :oldlol:

Jordan/Kobe were truly great basketball players. They won with class and lost with class. Something you and your ilk will never grasp. Quite sad, really.

Fake Laker fans like LAL and others around socal are just kobe fans. Laker nation dont need em.

Laker Nation doesn't need LeBron stans. We were here before Lebron and we'll be here long after.

Kobe lost with a 3-1 lead vs the Suns and had an awful game 7.
In 2004 Kobe got humiliated vs the Pistons and had awful games.
In 2000 finals Kobe played awful.

Great players have bad games. As a Laker fan I have forgiven Kobe for a few bad games. It happens. Kobe is a top 10 talent.


Whenever I decide to flex my muscles in this thread I run a 9.6 in the 100M. Yall can't catch up.

Iool dude it's about giving up like an entitled diva. Everyone has bad games, you guys still remind us about kobe 16 years ago. Lebron was recent as 2019 and past season.

Again, what's your opinion on lebron quitting like a bitch. Kobe's game 7 was in 06 was bad too, he wasn't scared though, tried to send a message to Phil, bad move.

Now admit.

Where were the Lakers before Bron came?

Lakers were crap since 2013. 6 years in a row doing nothing.

Bron comes and immediately starts building a championship team around him. Ain't that what the Lakers are about? Championships?

This topic is about those last 2 games in the playoffs and how he quit. Stood on the other side oof the court to watch, multiple times, never seen anyone do it. Then leaving 5 min before the final buzzer as if it's his teammates fault.

The passing ability of Jordan/Bron is about equal while the main difference is one of those players played the point. Context that you will probably not grasp and it's okay we all know you're the village idiot around here.

It's front running because every single one of those teams was a strategically stacked deck before the start of the season with guys that refused to quit in 4th quarters able to carry his deficits if he ever tried to slump like he did against Boston again.

I already told you he has confidence when he feels he has a chance. He just loses all his confidence when he feels he stands no chance. This isn't a knock on him - it's common for a lot of folks to quit while they're down. But some players never quit, that's all, he's just not one of those types.
there’s no use in arguing with him honestly, ive lurked nearly a year and a half and he’s one of the most deluded stans here :lol

8ball have you ever played an organized game? I can't tell if you're just trolling or literally not sure about the difference because you keep confusing player performances that have a bad game vs quitting a game.

Look, someone can shoot say, 8 for 24 - but putting up 24 shots when their job is to put up shots is them TRYING to do their job just not succeeding. It's a sign they never quit. Sink or swim they are doing their job PERIOD.

Someone who refuses to play defense or take shots and protests calls and just watches his teammates from a distance? Even walks his way to the lockerroom? That's someone who has mentally checked out and QUIT. No longer doing their job.

Some people even cite lack of shots, lack of turnovers, and protected FG% in these scenarios as if it is a good thing in this context. In the REAL WORLD of competing in basketball and you're that dudes teammate? That dude just quit on you. Sabotaged you. Ensured you'll lose (even though the odds were already that way) He guaranteed it. I would HATE to have a teammate that did that. I would much rather have a teammate that kept trying to put his foot on the gas no matter what the odds were.

Because when you try the entire time, no matter the odds, you walk away from any loss knowing you did everything you possibly could to try to win. When you quit on your team, you simply quit to go out on your terms, selfishly. You basically stick your middle finger up to the rest of the guys who might've still wanted to try and have proper closure by doing everything possible.

Remember this 8ball, for anything in your life. People will look up to you (win or lose) if you tried everything you possibly could to win. People will recognize that, as an admirable trait. You start quitting on people that depend on you just to soften the blow to your own individual ego, people will rightfully call you out for being self centered about it.

Nothing you wrote here has anything to do with Bron.


You want to pick 1 or 2 games out of thousand that he lost. Welcome to the NBA, players can lose games.


Coaches sit players all the time in games that are lost. That's not called quitting?



When Kobe didn't bother shooting in game 7 vs the Suns everyone calls it a bad game. If bron isn't yucking up shots for whatever reason its called quitting.

Good thing we have footages where most people base their opinion of lebron of. Those were two back to back massive quitting jobs by lebron as soon as his comfort zone, aka AD, was sidelined. Horrible leadership. Horrible body language. By that time he was probably already plotting his recruitment plans for 2022.

ScottieQuitting
08-05-2021, 01:20 PM
It is a known fact that he stops hustling when he sees too much adversity in front of him. If it's going to be a hard uphill 4th quarter or playoffs he just starts to have this distant gaze in his eyes and his effort vanishes. Saw it first hand when he was in Cleveland playing against Boston years ago and yes, it's not gone away it's just part of his personality. You will never see him "come from behind" like 15 down to miraculously close a game he had no business winning because he's just not that kind of player, he's a frontrunner only.

Not that every player is like that it's definitely only a rarified few that try against the odds like that but he's definitely not one of those kinds of players, because he visibly gives up as if he truly believes "what's the point". That's where I think this deck stacking behavior comes from - If the deck is stacked properly from the start he isn't as likely to be seen by fans sinking like this. He knows how he is so he tries his best to recruit talent and help cover it up by keeping odds stacked heavily in his favor.
Precisely. Front runner and LeQuitter at heart. Runs from challenges if the odds aren’t in his favor. From his daddy that ran away from the challenge, to his ghetto nonexistent mother bouncing from place to place, and man to man. It’s in his blood.

You mean like how Kobe still hustled and played the right way with the right body language even when they were down by 30-40 pts in the 4th qtr in the 2008 finals? There is nothing wrong for fans to ask the "leader" of a team to show up in the right manner even in a loss. Lebron is all about clowning around and taunting that sht when up. When losing though..

You mean like how Kobe quit in game 7 vs the Suns? Not shooting the ball at all?


Smart fans like me call it a bad game. It happens. Idiots like you make it something more than it is.

And yet, you are the retard who would say that LeBron stat padder if the does the EXACT same thing. God forbid, LeBron is in the game in a loss and he scores a point or two when his team is out of it, you would lose your tiny little mind. Heck, the Heat were down ~15-20 points in the 3rd Q's of the '14 Finals. LeBron goes a tear and you mouth breathers called it stat padding. Yet, when 1-9 or Brick does it, it's not stat padding, it's "leadership"? LMAO. You clowns are the worst. Stick to doodling with crayons and leave the basketball discussions for people like us with brains.

There is a difference between empty stats and effort to keep your team's head up in losses or just keeping the team alive. If lebron scores 6-10 pts during blowout losses but fails to go down on defense with every possession. Or aggressively shows his teammates his resignation but still puts up a couple of rebounds or assists, then that is exact problem with Lebron.

Won game 6 2013 down 10 points in 4th quarter.

Won vs 2016 73 win warriors being down 3-1.

Won 2012 Championship after losing Bosh for 8 straight playoff games.


LeBron overcomes stacked odds against him. Not the other way around.


Wrong.

Bron has more playoff comebacks than Kobe ever did.


Kobe only had success when playing with stacked HOF in their prime front courts.


Kobe threw away a 3-1 lead. Where was the mental will power there?


Down 3-1 vs greatest team of all time when did Bron quit?


He even had the greatest defensive hustle play of all time.

Here is another lie that fans of Kobe say and that is that he was"hitting all the clutch shots during the three-peat he had with Shaq.

2000 finals


Game 1: Shaq had 43 while Kobe had just 14. Lakers were up just 6 going into the 4th, Kobe didn't even make a shot in the 4th while Shaq dominated and Fox added 9 to pull away for the win.

Game 2: Shaq had 40 while Kobe had just 2 before leaving with an injury in the 2nd quarter. Lakers won anyway behind 21 each from Glen Rice and Harper.

Game 3: Kobe didn't play

Game 4: In regulation Kobe (20 points on 22 shots) was dominated by Reggie Miller (33 points on 17 shots), but Shaq had 36 points including 14 in the 4th to get the Lakers to overtime.

Kobe had that great overtime with those 2 big jumpers after Shaq fouled out with 2 minutes left, but the Lakers were already up 3 when that happened and never trailed in overtime anyway.

Game 5: Kobe shot 4-20 for just 8 points and the Lakers got blown out despite 35 from Shaq.

Game 6: Shaq has 41 on 19-32 to clinch the series, while Kobe had just 26 on 8-27 shooting. Lakers were down 5 going into the 4th, Shaq went 6-6 in the 4th while Kobe was bad shooting just 1-7. Horry/Fisher/Fox came through with clutch 3s to secure the win.



Kobe was 3-15 combined in the 4th quarters of the 2000 finals series



Here are all the close games in the WCF and Finals during 2002 Kobe to my shock really didn't do jack shyt in the clutch in 5 out of 6 of them:



Game 4 WCF: Horry hits the game-winning 3 after Kobe misses the jumper. Shaq had scored the previous 2 points to get the Lakers within 1. In the last 5 minutes Horry had 6, Shaq had 4, and Kobe had 4.

Game 5 WCF: Kobe misses 4 straight shots in the last 2 minutes. The first three would have put the Lakers up by 3, the last one was for the game. Kobe is 1-8 in the final five minutes and the Lakers lose by 1.

Game 6 WCF: The last two Laker field goals are both made by Shaq. Kobe's last field goal comes with 7:29 left in the game. Until the Kings started intentionally fouling, scoring in the last 5 minutes was Shaq 4, Fox 4, Horry 2, and Kobe 2.

Game 7 WCF: Last two field goals in regulation were made by Shaq and Horry. Kobe and Shaq both miss free throws in the final minute and then miss tip-ins that would have won the game. In overtime, Shaq has 6 and Fisher has 4, Kobe doesn't score until an intentional foul with the game over.

Game 1 Finals: Kobe's last bucket comes with 9:04 left. Shaq and Fox score the last buckets for the Lakers. In the last 5 minutes, Shaq has 8, Fox has 5, and Fisher has 2.

Game 3 Finals: Kobe (twice), Shaq, and Horry all hit big jumpers late. In the last 5 minutes, Shaq has 4, Kobe has 4, Horry has 3, George has 2, and Fox has 2.



That's it. That's all the close games in the WCF/Finals. It's a total bullshyt narrative that Kobe hit all the clutch shots when he played alongside Shaq in reality, he barely hit any clutch shots at all in big games. Shaq, Horry, and Fox all hit more big shots late than Kobe did in 2002.

Nice job ignoring all the other attributes that go into a player - and even Bron as a better passer is a myth.

The passing ability of Jordan/Bron is about equal while the main difference is one of those players played the point. Context that you will probably not grasp and it's okay we all know you're the village idiot around here.
