I thought LaBron James was meant to be the Next Micharl Jordan?

[bomberman]

He wasnt that good in the finals series where it all counts. Wade had a better finals series then James. If i was the Heat owner i would trade James away and try and get a big guy like Dwight Howard.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Yep, trade him for Dwight and that's best for Miami and Lebron IMO Lebron goes back to being #1 on a team and Miami get some damn post presence.

 

[Ridders]

Interesting thought. I personally wouldn't do it. I don't think the Heat need major changes. Whether the MLE will be in the next CBA is going to be crucial to them going forward.

 

[ByRd]

His not worth Jordans shoelaces or any of the other greats for that matter.

 

[Special K]

No way he gets traded before he turns 30 unless he says he wants out. The heat will be fine once they hit the market with the MLE. They do need to find a legit 1 and 5 though and have hardly any trade bait...

Trading anyone from the big 3 after going so close in year 1 would be silly...

You keep two scoring options but instead of both options being jumpers now you have a genuine post up player who commands double teams but you lose a lot at the line.

Miami can still win multiple rings but they have a lot of work to do. Dwight fixes a few problems but they need a coach bad Spoel can't run offence and he seems to
kiss the players' butt too much like he's scared to unleash the beast within for fear of a backlash

 

[betcats]

Jordan is the GOAT. There will never be another.

 

[Ridders]

Not really related to anything but, for a reason that eludes me, this pic always makes me laugh.

It's great because it's exactly how he pronounces it.

 

[abpanther]

I think LeBron just reminds everyone of the young guy who has the sense of entitlement and the ego without paying the dues. He calls himself "The King". He tattoos "Chosen 1" on his back. Then when things got too hard in Cleveland he tries to cheat the game with pairing with another Top 5 player and another All Star and "taking his talents to South Beach" rather than working on something like a post up game and carrying his own team. Then he talks casually about winning 7 titles when, as Barkley said, was an insult to all the guys who busted ass their entire careers to win one.

Jordan was cocky, and brash, and supremely talented, but I think everyone appreciated the way he came about as a young player who didn't know how to win early on, took his lumps against the Bad Boy Pistons and just kept at with hard work until he got over the hump. That's why people still idolized him, or at least saw a little bit of themselves, in a guy who was always a Goliath and never a David.

Michael Jordan was the best because he was the hardest worker off and on the court, LeBron has the attributes but he doesn't have that same drive MJ had. Jordan seriously wanted to rule the world and he did.

Actually thought Chalmers had a respectable Finals. They definitely need a legit 5 but so do half the teams so good luck finding one.

 

[Tiger Hawk]

Haha just read a good line about Chalmers - he's the worst good player of all time!

Even today he hit some big shots and did some other good things but he also did plenty of boneheaded stuff.

 

[edabomb]

They need someone with a post presence on offense. But they did completely blitz the Eastern Conference with this lineup so they shouldn't panic.

What the team needs is Corliss Williamson as their sixth man, anybody with a post up game.

 

[half]

forget about the roster. a decent coach would do

 

[Tiger Hawk]

What exactly did coach Spo do or didn't do that cost the Heat the title?

Hopefully someone, anyone, will tell LeBum to either work on a post game or teach him some fundamental off-ball offence this summer. He needs to learn how to play without the ball. Stands around too much when he doesn't have the ball. Unless the new coach can convince him to put some hard work in, I wouldn't hire anyone.

Miami's offence is run terribly, that's down to the coach. Lebron in the Bulls series hit some ridiculous shots but that was after the offence had run down and his talent took over. Miami got to the finals based on the raw talent but against a stronger western team it wasn't enough. Spo can't run offence.

The guy is just a jackass, I mean look at this quote from his post game presser:

“All the people that were rooting me on to fail, at the end of the day they have to wake up tomorrow and have the same life they had before,” James said. “They have the same personal problems they had to today. I’m going to continue to live the way I want to live and continue to do the things that I want with me and my family and be happy with that.”

“They can get a few days or a few months or whatever the case may be on being happy that not only myself, but the Miami Heat not accomplishing their goal,” James said. “But they’ll have to get back to the real world at some point.”

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Lebrick has a case of U MAD. We'll all wake up tomorrow and Lebrick still choked in the 4th of the series, he still got punked by Jason mothereffin Terry after being called out and he'll still be the King without a Ring who gives back 75c to the dollar.
