Let's Debate About Lebron James Honestly, I might have a man-crush on LBJ. I think the reason I sweat his action is that he is one of the only clearly dominant figures in the sports world who's entire legacy was formed during my life as an adult and I have gotten to watch him play and develop.
I think it's a great debate; how good Lebron really is. His stats are clearly dominant and he's got a highlight reel just as good as anyone else who is playing right now. But some of you might notice that he has not done well in the big playoff games.
He did hit a pretty sick shot the other night to win that game, but that was pretty damn close to not going in. If you look at how many game winners he has missed in these losing games, the # is very high.
Funny though, Jordan says the same stuff about himself. Everyone forgets that he had to make those big winning shots, 1 famous one in particular, because he missed the game winner the night before that would have clinched it.
Bottom Line; If he doesn't win a championship he'll never be in Jordan's world, and it will be because his team sucks. If he wants to be considered a hero, his team sucking is his own fault by hero standards. |
