Have they said anything more about his knee? Mike and Mike was saying that he is in bad shaperobj55;1176635 wrote:Wade has been awful, but he gets a pass from the media. If Lebron scored 5 points in a playoff game we would hear about it for years. Wade has to be hurt the way he is playing.
You can't ignore what he has done, Aside from one game against Boston and 3 straight games in the finals he has be outstanding in the playoffs. Carried the Cavs and put up unreal numbers. Carried Miami against Chicago and Boston last year. You can't dismiss all the things he has done for a few mishaps, that's silly.hoops23;1176638 wrote:ESPN is trying so hard to make LeBron look like a great playoff performer.
Cool, he has pretty stats. But what's he do when it matters most?
He has been getting treatment since the mid part of the season.wes_mantooth;1176639 wrote:Have they said anything more about his knee? Mike and Mike was saying that he is in bad shape
Not an excuse, he is obviously not himself and they reported that he has been getting treatment.Crimson streak;1176637 wrote:Lol here comes the excuses already. Wade ain't hurt he just blows this series
Pretty stats mean nothing if he doesn't get it done when it matters, so yes I can.robj55;1176647 wrote:You can't ignore what he has done, Aside from one game against Boston and 3 straight games in the finals he has be outstanding in the playoffs.

So if he was awful in the playoffs for the rest of his career he would get a pass? That's ignorant.wildcats20;1176636 wrote:Wade is a champion. Bron is not.
But you just said Wade is injured. LBJ would know that, so he knows he has to take over, right?robj55;1176653 wrote:So if he was awful in the playoffs for the rest of his career he would get a pass? That's ignorant.
So one example over 9 years? What about all the other series where he single handedly carrier teams and kept them in it for 4 quarters of every game? Lebron is cursed, doesn't matter what he does he will never be able to live up to his own hype. People grade him on a different curve than any other player who has ever played this game. He could win 3 titles but that will never be enough.hoops23;1176652 wrote:Pretty stats mean nothing if he doesn't get it done when it matters, so yes I can.
To compare him to what Magic, MJ, or Bird did is stupid.
Miami had more talent than Dallas and Dirk willed Dallas to a title while LBJ melted away int he 4th Q's.
That stuff matters.
Yes. That is the way it works.robj55;1176653 wrote:So if he was awful in the playoffs for the rest of his career he would get a pass? That's ignorant.

15, 5, and 4 in the first half? He's not Kobe, he's not going to take 35 shots with 20 of them being of the poor variety.hoops23;1176655 wrote:But you just said Wade is injured. LBJ would know that, so he knows he has to take over, right?

Not asking that at all, I acknowledge he came up small a few times. He shrank in the finals last year. Game 5 against Boston he looked out of it but he rebounded with a huge game 6.chicago510;1176658 wrote:You say you can't ignore things, then in next breath you want us to ignore the worst games of his career.
The year the Cavs went to the Finals LBJ had an amazing game 5, but it was Boobie's amazing Game 6 that got the Cavs into the Finals.robj55;1176656 wrote:So one example over 9 years?

He doesn't look as explosive to me.Crimson streak;1176661 wrote:If wade was hurt he would have cried to the media and been dramatic(not Paul pierce dramatic but close) on the court after last game or today. He's just not having shots fall
