    Default What was Spo thinking trying to make LeBron a 3rd option in the middle of the Finals?

    How does this guy still have a job in the league.




    Miami up 2-1 with HCA against the Mavs



    "Hey LeBron... since we're up in this series, play as a GOAT 3rd option and run the offense while rebounding and defending, leave Wade to carry the scoring"







    How did that work out? Wade lost the ball in a clutch Game 4 loss, and was nowhere to be found in Game 6 scoring 16 points while being scoreless in the 4th quarter.






    What was Spo thinking? Did he gameplan this out or did Riley and Wade have a handshake agreement for him to try and force his way to a FMVP



    Dude is clueless about basketball

    Cause he couldnt shoot nor defend at the time, and was already a known choke artist (Getting swept in 07, and two bronze medals in the olympics)

    He was a horrible player that finished with 0 FMVP votes in his first two finals

    Wasn't Spo's fault LeBron was shook, and was too scared to post up JJ Barea

    This isn't the 60s as the biggest Lebron fan In the world I saw him choke like i have never seen anyone choke before..it was disappointing and he was exposed for being a player who can not make big shots. If bron was a real man he would make that shot in game 7 instead of Kyrie but he has no clutch gene..

    This post is as stupid as the OP. Pretty amazing though a player with no clutch gene has managed to win 3 titles/FMVP's

    It is isn't it? Crazier things have happened. Lebron most clutch shot was when his team was up by 2 with a few seconds to go and even then that shot looked so damn awkward. I guess Lebron does have that awesome clutch shot where he shot the ball, missed, bosh rebounds and Lebron drains a 3 in game 6!! Oh whoops nope that was Ray Allen but he helped by missing in the clutch!!'

    First off, OP is an idiot.

    But it would've been interesting to see what a competent coach, like Phil, would've handled Lebron turning into a little bitch.
    I bet he could've even turned things around and helped then win the series.

    I find myself asking this question on the daily. Bron should have 4 rings if not for being forced to defer to inferior players!

    Lebron in 11 was like the dude in a movie who's the teams best player but he sucks ass all game cuz his girlfriend left him or his cat died. Usually, they get a stern talking to from a teammate or coach to break the slump and win

    Except Bron didn't break that slump
    Dwyane Wade grabbed LeBron James late in the fourth quarter of Game 3 of the NBA finals, one Miami Heat star telling the other that he could play better.

    and one of the 10 most stacked teams in Finals history lost to one of the worst

    Wade averaged 30/7/5 against the Celtics and it didn't stop Lebron from playing great. Wade had numerous games that season where he led the team in scoring and Lebron still played at an MVP level.

    The other funny thing about OP's nonsense is that Wade averaged nearly identical numbers in the finals as he did throughout the season. So did Bosh. The only thing different was Lebron.

    Of all the excuses Lebron stans make for 2011, suggesting that there was some kind of role change in the finals might be the most ridiculous. Everything was the same as it haf been all season. Except Lebron. It's really that simple.

    Your trolling is starting to become tiresome.
