LeBron James had a rough night last night as he pulled his typical choke job late in the game as Miami squandered a 15-point lead against the Dallas Mavericks.
-Dwyane Wade was Batman again, as he was killing Dallas with his offense all night. Yet late in the game, the Heat put the ball in LeBron’s hands, and Robin blew it. What happened? – the same BS we saw in Cleveland for years. LeBron holds the ball, waits for the clock to wind down, and then throws up a desperate three. His bricks at the end gave Dallas the critical stops they needed.
-LeBron’s goofy celebration after Dwyane Wade’s big three helped spark the Mavs. LeBron is really a goofy child. He doesn’t have Jordan’s killer instinct, and he acts like an ass on the court. He always does just enough to motivate the other team.
-LeBron wilted after his exchange with Boobie Gibson. Here’s LeBron’s dumb comment:
“I wanted to team up with some guys that would never die down in the moment,” James said. “The opportunity presented itself with this great organization and we made it happen.”
He’s implying that his Cavs teammates died in the moment, after he quit in Game 5 vs Boston, and also lost plenty of games with his idiotic “decisions” late in games? Boobie couldn’t resist and responded:
I think what it all boils down to if you’re great, you go play great, be great and everybody will realize you’re great. And you wouldn’t have to let it be known that everybody else was less great.
“Great players shouldn’t have to do that.
“So I feel like it’s kind of an admission. He might have needed some help. He might have needed to go somewhere and find someone who is a little greater so maybe he wouldn’t die down in those moments.”
Nice! LeBron just can’t be the #1 guy on a team. He doesn’t have the stones to do it. With Miami, he often gets bailed out for his stupidity by a great player like Wade, but not last night!
