Flash Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Is that 1/13 Dwight's 3 point shooting? [expletive]ing loser couldn't even get in the post and was useless last night. Guy played like a complete idiot out there even when it got close. Either way, its funny how now the ASG all of a sudden matters because LBJ made one mistake lol.

Owner Real Deal Posted February 28, 2012 Owner Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Either way, its funny how now the ASG all of a sudden matters because LBJ made one mistake lol.? When didn't the All-Star game matter? I wanted Kobe to be competitive, and the West to win in a blowout, from the start. If it "suddenly" mattered to anyone in the blink of an eye, it was LeBron...who was ready to dance and celebrate a victory, until he threw the ball away, declined to take advantage of three game-winning opportunities, and lost the game. Not really sure what you're getting at with that statement, unless you're bashing LeBron for how he reacted in his post-game interview with Sager.

Flash Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) You that if any other player on the floor, whether it be Roy Hibbert or Kobe, turned the ball over on that play it'd be a non story even with the loss but that fact that it was LeBron, it just shows us how un-clutch he is when in reality the guy was absolute money in the 4th quarter and quite frankly was the only reason the game was even close at the end. And lol @ criticizing him for smiling and enjoying the all star game. Even the god Bean was smiling even after his nose was broken. Quit acting like its some [expletive]ing crime to enjoy yourself at the all star game. It isn't the playoffs. Its the reality of how fans view him I guess but its absolutely unfair to criticize the guy for an All Star Game that has 0 impact on how the season will play out.

LeBron is afraid of failure. It's really the one glaring weakness in his game this year, as he has finally developed a post game and is probably the closest to being a complete player as he has ever been...but as everyone is saying (aside from people in Miami, which is obvious...just like it was with Cleveland fans), there's something missing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) I don't think anyone is saying he's the epitome of clutch. Its well known he's struggled with potential game winning shots but his clutch failures are the most overblown thing in sports. I'm pretty sure Nitro has gone on here an written quality posts proving just how "clutch" he is. who was ready to dance and celebrate a victory First off, what does that even mean? That he expected his team to win the game? The guy was having fun out there. Do you realize you're hating on a guy for having fun at the all star game? Has any other player in history been criticized for that? Let's get on Kobe for missing a free throw or Blake for missing a free throw. Shit, blame Wade for blowing a wide open pass like that. But not the guy who brought that team back down from double digits hitting ridiculous shot after ridiculous shot and making it look effortless at some points. And no, this is not Cleveland. This fanbase held him and the entire team accountable for that FAIL we pulled in the Finals. Edited February 28, 2012 by Flash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its well known he's struggled with potential game winning shots but his clutch failures are the most overblown thing in sports. I'm pretty sure Nitro has gone on here an written quality posts proving just how "clutch" he is. Okay...I said that he is scared to fail, so he passes the ball far too often in clutch situations. That has nothing to do with anything you just said above. First off, what does that even mean? That he expected his team to win the game? The guy was having fun out there. Do you realize you're hating on a guy for having fun at the all star game? Has any other player in history been criticized for that?Let me put it out there for you in layman's terms. Read over and over again: what I said was replying to your post asking why the ASG was suddenly a serious competition. Simply put, you're asking us why we make it out to be so serious, and I'm asking you why LeBron did once he didn't close it out. Had he hit a game-winner, he would have been acting the way he did during the intros. Why was he so upset in what you think should be a meaningless game? Don't ask the question to us. If he's going to take it serious, why wouldn't we? Let's get on Kobe for missing a free throw or Blake for missing a free throw. Shit, blame Wade for blowing a wide open pass like that. But not the guy who brought that team back down from double digits hitting ridiculous shot after ridiculous shot and making it look effortless at some points. If you're going to rally and lead your team by scoring like crazy for three minutes or so closing out the final quarter, be sure you're going to lead them by scoring the final bucket. How many points did LeBron have in the last three minutes of the game? I have no idea, and I don't care. If he hit the game-winning three, I'd be able to tell you how many points he scored with the game-winning shot, and the end result. Everything else is easily forgotten. Durant only had two points in the fourth quarter. How many knew that? They just know he scored 34 in the first three, and the West won the game with him holding up the MVP trophy. It doesn't matter what game...that's how things work. And no, this is not Cleveland. This fanbase held him and the entire team accountable for that FAIL we pulled in the Finals.I'm sure they would have done the same if Dwyane Wade was in Cleveland, as his teammate, in 2007.

Maybe he is scared to fail, I'm not sure I'm not in his brain. But he had Kobe in his face and I'm pretty sure Durant was about to pop out to double him. So what is he to do? Take a ridiculous 28 footer at the end or throw it to an teammate he thought was open? The pass to Melo would've been a better idea in all honesty but he's playing with guys capable of hitting that shot as well so why not make the better play in that situation? Blake made a good read and the rest is history. His main fault is that he trusts his teammates TOO much. Its just the player he is. His unselfishness has become a fault apparently. He got mad because he knew he messed up and he knew what was about to happen. Shit, Craig Sager was sitting there waiting for him before he even got to sit down. The guy is the easiest target in sports history and literally can do nothing right in some people's eyes. All because he's 27 and hasn't won a ring and over a nickname that was given to him. He's the one on the court and who has to deal with people telling him how un clutch he is and what a piece of shit he is. Its only a convenient situation like this one where fans now take the ASG as serious as the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Its one thing to be the guy who messed up late and now has to face a mountain of criticism over an all star game and its another being the fan watching in on TV who could only dream of having 1/3 of the talent anyone out on that court had.

I hope LeBron's soul heals up from this, I truly do. God, please help LeBron through this terrible decision he made to pass the ball to Blake Griffin in the closing seconds of the All-Star Game. And, somehow, toss him a few extra dollars, just in case he needs it to get by this weekend. LeBron made it a game in the fourth. He played like he was in the playoffs. Therefore, it's a meaningful game to him, and because of that, it's a meaningful game to us. You'll never get that, though, because you're so damn blind to it...FUUUUCK. Just weird. I seriously feel like I'm talking to a family member of his. Don't care anymore. Get your last word in so I don't have to go back into this topic.

Abro Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Was it intentional? Yes of course. Did he mean to hurt Kobe? Of course not so YOU GTFO of here and quit trying to do this whole "get into the mind of D-Wade" thing because nobody can do that accurately. Nobody wants to intentionally hurt another person unless they are just a bad person, which Wade is not. They are friends even Kobe said that they were if I remember correctly. Only reason why people say it was a cheap shot is because it was the ASG. Lol at all these people saying all the sudden that D-Wade is a horrible person and all that nonsense. And that he needs to get out of here and stuff haha pretty funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The foul was meant to be hard, though, because you don't do that during an All-Star Game...and at the very least, you go for the ball. Can't believe this was actually bumped. Kobe took care of the situation on Sunday, so I'm not sure why it matters now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
