LeBron hasn't taken a 3 pointer yet

[HurricaneKid]

Gotta get that PER title!

He has won it the last 4 years. Here are the people that have won that title more:

Jordan
Wilt
Kareem
Shaq

Sorry but that is an impressive list. If LeBron can get his title count up to 3-4 before he is done he will be a top 10 player. If he can't then he will unfortunately be remembered as much for falling short in the playoffs.

Not taking any 3's will come back to bite them in the ass in the playoffs. Without their clutch 3-point shooting, they may have not even made it past Boston or Chicago.

When teams force them to play half-court basketball, they're gonna have to resort back to their old habits, which will be rusty by then.

This is what's scary. I feel like getting past Boston and Chicago on outside shooting was kinda lucky (cause they definitely couldn't do this in the regular season). Sometimes the bench stepped up, other times Lebron/Wade came through with some lucky ass 3s. They have problems playing vs zones, definitely need to figure it out.

Wth? So "LeBron is a choker" but he needs to take 3s because of his clutch 3 point shooting? Wth?

You realize its not the entire Heat team that's not shooting 3s anymore right? It's ONLY LeBron + Wade. Career 33% and 31% 3FGA shooters, while staying as 52%+ on 2FGA. Why would they be shooting 3s when they surrounded by James Jones, Mario Chalmers, and Shane Battier. 3 point shots should be left to the guys who make them more efficiently.

I know it's only been three games, but after averaging ~4 three pointer attempts a game over the past few years it seems like he might be making it a point to cut down on the 3's this year.

Crazy how efficient/dominant he is when he doesn't settle for the longball. 32 ppg on 59% so far.

I wonder if he'll continue turning down 3's and if so, could we possibly see a 52-53% FG season from LeBron?

nor has wade....it's a good thing....th only 3s they should be taking it's open 3 created by the offense on kickouts etc. Wade and James FG% is gonna be through the roof because of it.

[Doranku]

Didn't realize that Wade hadn't taken any either. To me, that says there absolutely is some sort of focused effort going on for those guys to cut back on the 3's. Good shit, definitely seems to be working as Miami looks better than ever right now.

Durant is shooting 58% while taking 5 3's a game

Yeah, if both he and LeBron keep up this type of play (or level off similarly), who gets the MVP? Both will likely have a top 2 record in their conference and both will be head and shoulders above the rest of the league performance wise. Looks like a much better MVP race to be had than last year so far.

he finaly realized he brickin em too much? took only 8 years

[JerrySteakhouse]

He doesn't need to take 3s.

Yeah, seriously. Last year's best players were a lot worse than the seasons before.

It's a bit of stretch, but I hope Kobe somehow returns to Godbe this season, at least for a couple of games. Last season seriously left me wanting more huge scoring performances.

But at least he'll have his PER titles to keep him warm and cozy.


PER, big ****ing deal.

check his mvp shirt he deluded like a balloon

[The Iron Fist]

No...there really isn't. Well...it depends on your definition. If you are one of the 20 best to ever play....that is one of the greatest to me.

At worst, Lebron will go down in the 15 to 20 range all time. At worst. He will most likely go down as one of the 12 best ever.

Hes not even one of the 20 best ever.

You do realize that majority of the time Lebron and Wade are on the court at the same time, right? Especially late in the games. So that leaves only one player the opposing teams would have to worry about taking a 3.

Having that kind of spacing while being forced to play half-court basketball in the playoffs is a recipe for disaster. That is unless you want Bosh or Anthony/Haslem to start taking 3's instead. Good luck with that.
