Lebron James Is The Worst NBA Finals Superstar Ever?
Lebron James - Worst NBA Finals Superstar Ever
- Game 1 - Loss 76-85 - 14 Pts, 25% FG , 33% 3Pt %, 6 Turnovers
- Game 2 - Loss 92-103 - 25 Pts, 42.9% FG, 0% 3Pt %, 6 Turnovers
- Game 3 - Loss 72-75 - 25 Pts, 39.1% FG, 0% 3Pt %, 5 Turnovers
NBA Finals Average - 18.0 Pts, 35 % FG, 11% 3Pt %, 5.67 Turnovers.
- Lebron James is down 3-0 in the NBA Finals, he is only averaging a mere 18 points a game, with almost a average of 6 turnovers. Lebron James is the worst NBA Finals superstar to ever be one of the most hyped players in sports.
1. He is not clutch, he does not step up to take the last shot he passes it off, and when he does he misses.
2. From all the stuff of making teammates better Lebron James is still averaging a low 18 points a game, no NBA superstar averages 18 points a game, especially in the NBA Finals, especially someone being compared to Micheal Jordan who averaged like almost 40 points a game in the Finals.
- Lebron James has basically choked.
First of all I said superstar, When I say superstar Gary Payton & Karl Malone were not superstars in 2004 in the NBA Finals (Kobe & Shaq were). But Malone & Payton were never down 3-0 and play poorly like Lebron, they took Jordan & the Bulls to 6 and 7 games, with averages of over at least 20 points.
- Also Im not gonna say Lebron James is a physical specimen, because if I wanted he would have to be in the NFL or Boxing. Basketball is about unique talent, not just strength and power. You gotta have skill and mental ability not just physical strength.
- And once again, Lebron did choke. Go look at the highlights www.nba.com
- Lebron James & The Cavs dont not have a chance to win this series, not win the next game. They are about get sweeped tommorw. Wake up and smell the pizza.
Do not say Lebron James does not have, help ok. Because all the Lebron fans were jumping for joy, when they beat the Pistons. Oh Booby Gibson!, Oh Big Z, Oh Varaejo... dont say he has not help because he got far.
- Lebron did not step up thats the bottom line. Jordan, & Magic both got triple teamed & double teamed and won championships and MVPs.

Game 1 - FG made: 4, Turnovers: 6
Game 2 - FG made: 9, Turnovers: 6
Game 3 - FG made: 9, Turnovers: 5
Regardless of how many points he is averaging which is pretty weak for such a "King" as marketed by the media the last 4 years, just look at the FG made and Turnovers from him.
He has made 5 more FG's than he has Turnovers!!! That speaks for itself and is one of the worst Finals "Superstar" performances for a series. Don't get me wrong I bet he will be back in years to come but for the time being I know for a fact the NBA and media feel like fools for the hyping him the way they have been doing for James since the playoffs started and WAY to much hype before and during this series started thinking he was going to pull a MJ out of his bag against the Spurs.
Not to forget his airball freethrow which does not help his case much.
COME ON PEOPLE HE'S NOT ASKING ABOUT SUPERSTARS PAST THEIR PRIME AND PLAYING LIMITED MINUTES, AND IS NOT ASKING ABOUT ANY POPULAR PLAYER - HE MEANS SUPERSTAR ON THAT LEVEL OF HYPE SUCH AS JORDAN, SHAQ, WADE ETC.!

Yes, man. Right on. It's good to have a guy whos a Kobe fan and think that LeBron isnt MJ or Kobe. Anyway, what you said is true. Im not hatin on LeBron, but the man is horrible in playoffs. Who wants to see LeBron airball freethrows? NOBODY! Man, this guy is a superstar? Better than MJ? Man, hes airballin freethrows in the NBA Finals, man. Its horrible. This is very disappointing. Most BORING Finals in the history. People know it. Game 1 had the Lowest Ratings in history. My god, The Sopranos rated better than the NBA Finals. He's the worst "leader" as people call him EVER. He can just keep on crying about that lil 1 finger touch foul at the end of the game. You know what, if the Cavs and him made all those shots he wouldnt have to be in a situation where he had to take a deep 3. They can only blame themselves, for sucking and not making those OPEN looks which they had the WHOLE 4th quarter. Just horrible.

First off he is playing the best defensive team in the entire league. Second he i basically the only player on the Cleveland team that is even above mediocre. Third and finally he got them to where they are without the team.
Now as stats, they don't tell the whole picture. Doe a stat say that he is double and triple teamed all the time, does it say that he is always met by Tim Duncan at the basket or even that he is playing one on five.
Now the reason they are down 3-0 is because the team sucks, simply put. He passes up the ball because he knows as soon as he goes to the rim the defense will collapse and how is it his fault that varajeo is a stupid ******* idiot?
And finaly how is it his fault the media has made him into the second coming?. Thought so. Now I am a Spurs fan and am disgusted with the hype LJ gets but again that is not his fault. Lebron hasn't choked, he is just having to do to much for his team to even compete.

Discover now the best sport betting system: http://sport-betting-tips.checkhere.info/
Too many people think of sports betting as just something they do in their past time. However, many people can see the potential that exists if you manage to have the right sports betting strategy and correct approach to betting in general. Are you sick of losing? Interested in finding out how to turn your luck around? Do you want to know which sports betting strategies stand to help you make the most from your betting?
Any good strategy should allow you to place bets based on a systematic method. Of course there is always a random element or so called luck involved, but betting is all about stacking the odds in your favor. There should be no guess work involved or bets placed based on gut feelings. Betting is a business and it should be treated like one. Any money you use for betting needs to be separate from money you use for your daily life or anything else. How can you possibly expect to follow a strategy with money that was originally set aside to pay next week's rent with? You can't. This will help you to focus on the task of betting and remove any emotional strings attached to the money.
So what makes a good strategy or what should you look for in a strategy before you decide to implement it? Any good strategy needs to have a positive expectancy. This means that in the long run you will win. The hit rate of the strategy needs to be above 50% for you to be able to profit in the long run. An ideal win rate should be between 60 to 70%, because you will need to cover the fees and other expensive associated with betting. Is it feasible to expect you'll be able to find a system that has a 100% win rate? No, it isn't. The best you can do is find a system that has a positive expectancy and stick with it. In the long run you will make more money than you can possibly lose.
Keep whatever information and news you have about the teams as up to date as possible. Any changes in the teams makeup or factors that affect how the players play will great affect the potential outcome of a match. Make sure that you are constantly up to date on every aspect that affects the potential outcome of a match. Information is the key to winning at sports betting.

No LeBron is not the worst finals player ever, he is on the worst finals TEAM ever. James has no help and his teammates are either too young and inexperienced or too mediocre. Seriously, does anyone think that Cleveland could beat any playoff team out of the west like the Warriors or Lakers? who were 7 and 8 seeds. The Cavs are just a one hit wonder cinderella story this year and until they get a supporting cast that can utilize all of LeBron's skills they will remain a one-hit wonder.

First of all, I don't know why there are so many people out there generating all of this hate toward Bron. Lebron himself will say that Kobe IS better than him. So, with the comparisons. Second, Spurs have one future hall-of-famer, to legitimate all stars and good supporting cast and bench. Lebron had "Booby". The Spurs were the more superior team. Third, it's unfair to ask one person to win everything for you. Basketball is a team sport and one man can't do it all. Look back over the careers of Kobe, Shaq, Duncan, Jordan, Magic, Bird, Erving, Chamberlin, Russell and you will see that they all had legitimate all stars if not hall of fame rs playing all side of them. Does Lebron have this, no. So give him a break. He got Cleveland to the finals that is a feat in itself.

I agree, the statistics you have to show for are good support. I think the comparison between LJ and MJ isn't quite fair because there situations were different. Michael had Scottie Pippen (16.1 ppg 6.4 rpg 5.2 apg AND not to mention one of the 50 greatest players of all time).
There never has been and never will be a Superstar in the Post Season that carries a team on his shoulders without any help.

Lebron's more of hype man than cluth player...In all fairness does anybody think lebron's doing anything special in
the playoffs right now??? beside the 48 points. In my opinion his actually hurting his team in the finals with low field goals percentage , 17 turnovers in 3 games, not to mention his lack of leadership in the final period. I can go on , on.

I believe he has just cracked under the pressure. I'm sure it is frustrating to him because he is used to being able to find a way.... it isn't that he is not a good basketball player... he was quite impressive in the last series in putting detroit to bed.... but the spurs are as dynamic a team as there is in the league and he just can't buy a win. he is running on despair right now and trying to hard to find a weakness in the spurs defense.... and as I am sure he is comming to the realization about now.... there just isn't one. he's basicly screwed. you watch the next game they have nothing to lose by just cutting him loose and going for broke.... he will perform great in the next game, but I still don't think it's going to be enough. I feel bad for him and I'm a spurs fan..... you can see he is trying.... just not having any luck with it.

remember karl malone? he choked twice in 1997 and 1998. what could e worse than that. at least lebron is trying. karl did not.
add, many folks over at NY consider john starks a superstar. what he did in that New York - Houston Rockets finals grind could be the worst act of a superstar (or star at the least)
