LABron James Discussion: The Final Year?

I'm fine with it .. A guy with Lebron size/built operating most of the time from the top of key is just bad B-ball

 

…seconds after I reluctantly accepted defeat and loudly declared to my family that we were going to lose.

 

He had some loud mistakes late but we also aren't there without him.



The 3 to send it to OT. Then the nearly game winner was nearly 3/4 the way down and popped out.


Also he was f***ing exhausted

 

LeBron more than redeemed himself with that clutch 3 to tie, then dived on loose balls in overtime. We get destroyed without the oldman tonight.

 

Those two plays won us the game. Smart stealing the ball and winning 3 foul shots. Then Lebron stealing the ball and hitting the 3.

Amazing stuff.

 

Lebron with 29/13/6 - 3 steals and a block. Yes he had some turnovers, but he is winning this series in a masterful way.

Averging 25/10/9 with 3 stocks on 47/43/70 - the old man's still got it.

 

Yeah. Crazy ending.

 

I don't know how long JJ can do this. Played Lebron the entire 4th quarter now two games in a row

You can totally see when Lebron is starting to run out of gas; the decision making goes haywire. I guess this happens when you get this old - the brain goes just as much his legs
Great steal and 3 and i though the game winner was going in but he needs his minutes cut asap or just rest him the next game?

 

SIG

 

I feel bad for Reed. You could see the piss coming down his basketball shorts when LeBron was full court guarding him in that final possession of the 4th q. Reed tried to blow by LeBron looking like he wasn't nervous at all but LeBron sensed it. You rarely see LeBron full court guard someone like that. My guess is LeBron knew Reed wasn't ready for that moment.

Just a fantastic game by LeBron. He's averaging 25/10/9 for this series. To top it off, he's shooting 44% from three! Stepping up when it matters.

I don't even blame him for any mistakes he makes. The guy is 41 hustling for loose balls, jump balls, etc., Without him, Lakers have no chance. This might be the most impactful playoffs series he has played for the Lakers considering the fact that almost no one had the Lakers winning this series and wrote them off the minute Luka+Reaves went down.

 

This might be underselling it. With Jokic having a terrible Game 3 and being down 1-2, LeBron is having the best playoffs of anyone so far.

Lakers are the only team up 3-0, everyone else has losses except the foul merchant who had a terrible Game 1.

Seriously, is anyone having a better playoffs so far than LeBron? Next closest candidate might be Marcus Smart, lol.

 

he's not going to last playing this many minutes. there's just no way redick can keep playing him for virtually the entire second half

 

Love the OT win but if that last 3 went in...
We need to find a way to rest him though, maybe let him sit out game 4 or something (although getting cute/smart might bite us in the a**).

 

JJ is going all in to win this series..he gets a free pass for whatever happens afterwards.

 

I think we will get him more rest in game 4. I think JJ and Lebron both just knew a win here pretty much ends the series and went for the kill.
