Lebron was practically "Larry Hughes" vs championship comp and in high-pressure moments from 2007-2011:
22 on 36% vs 07' Spurs
26 on 35% vs 08' Celtics
21 on 34% vs 10' Celtics (last 3 games)
18 on 48% vs 11' Mavs
lebron ROUTINELY lost 4th quarter leads for his entire career, not just against the current Nuggets - he lost 3 fourth quarter leads in the 09' ECF, which includes 7 TO's in the 4th quarter and OT of critical Game 4, while refusing to guard his position for the entire series (Hedo), and turning into 12 TO per game player in clutch-time for the series... Or simply being too ball-dominant at very high-scoring levels to beat top teams.
Ultimately, Lebron's horrific performance against championship comp over an extended time period (07-11') invalidates his Eastern run in 07', along with the simple fact that any Tom, Dick and Harry was taking 1-star teams to the Finals at that time and then getting destroyed in the Finals (Iverson, Dwight, Kidd twice).
