Type of cat that has plenty of post but consistently goes in threads and adds nothing. Dude got the NT career of a ExtraBut I see you kid...get them post.
I'm not saying Lebron isn't a great player. I'm not even saying he can't score. What I'm saying is that truthfully when you break down his game, his scoring is undependable. He can not score like a successful go-to-guy should. If the offense is built around DWade and Lebron continues to score like he does, then it's fine. He's not the primary scorer and like many 2nd options have proved, just adding the scoring throughout the game is enough for you to be successful. Like I said, my beef is when people associate his game with the best in the world or say he has an "explosive" first step when he doesn't.
Games on today!

Yall dudes are missing the big picture. The only thing that matters in basketball is winning. Skills, athleticism, and all that good stuff comes second at the end of the day dudes are recognized by their accomplishments not facets of their games.

Nobody is missing the big picture. If we have learned anything from sports and when talking about ranking players and what not...it's that winning isn't enough. It's a 1a 1c importance when talking about how good a player was. Their accomplishments are first, but majority of what makes them a "legend" is the subjective stuff.
How come Duncan has 4 rings, considered the best PF of all time in many circles...yet - a guy like Anfernee Hardaway has no rings and truthfully had a superstar career that lasted from like 95 to 98 - has probably triple the amount of personal fans Duncan has? Some of yall aint "seeing the big picture".

"What I'm saying is that truthfully when you break down his game, his scoring is undependable. He can not score like a successful go-to-guy should."
Are you READING your own $%% you type
Just STOP dude. We get it, you don't like his first step. It's just like I didn't like Shaq's three-point and ft shooting. Guess what though? In his prime he was STILL the most dominant force in the league, and anyone who didn't see that is simply being stupid.
STOP nitpicking, and recognize that LBJ's stregnths >>>>>>>>>>> a "slow" first step. CLEARLY he's done quite well without it as shown time and time again in the data which you STILL refuse to acknowledge. You ain't got any proof to show otherwise, and your harping on "subjective" arguments is just that, SUBJECTIVE (and by your posts it doesn't seem like you even know what the word means). Which doesn't fly if you're out to prove something.

Missed his First two baskets of the first Half
3rd Basket: Drive to the hoop. Goal-tend. Defender still had a chance for the block. Reason: Not enough seperation from defender. A score on a goal tend is not always dependable.
4th Basket: Score in the Fast court. Does not constitute as a halfcourt score.
5th Basket: Big man type of put back. Is this a dependable/go to guy score in the half court? nope. Fans though...chant MVP after the basket. lol
6th shot: Had a screen. Called it off. Couldn't beat man, shoots ugly jumper.
7th basket: Layup to the basket. Really didn't get any seperation and threw up such a ugly shot hoping for the foul too. Makes layup bc of he's talented...but You can look at the layup and see what I'm talking about when I say "undependable". That layup does not have a great chance in critical situations.
8th basket: Pull up three. TMAC II.
9th basket: Can't drive to the basket all the way so he passes to teammate. Gets ball back for side corner 3.
Yet - Lebron has 15 points. On track to average 30. But is he REALLY scoring like a dependable first option/go to guy?
Any errors?

OP is right, Lebron can't create on his own. You dudes want to talk about his power and speed and hops, but he still can't go one on one, every drive depends on him getting a screen.
