Game 4

[SuPeRfLyKiD]

A copout of an NBA Finals Game 4...a game which Miami was winning, the guy almost had a triple double and made arguably the biggest shot in the game? What exactly was the copout from?

I've admitted in the past that I feel LeBron is the best player on the floor for 98% of the game. The guy has talent out the wazoo, but that changes at the very end of games. It was another tight game last night, and he conveniently checks out for the last minute of the game while it's tight, even though he had been playing on his bum leg for 4 minute prior. 60% of LeBron is better than his backup, IMO.

Again, probably me just playing Devil's Advocate, but LeBron is the type of guy who makes me think like that.

So Eric Spoelstra took LeBron out of a game he was dominating because he can't close? He was petrified of the last minute.. That what you getting at here? Help me understand.

You didn't see? He was so scared of the moment that he buried that 3 with less than 3 minutes remaining. Meanwhile Harden and Durant were busy being cold-blooded assassins on the other side.

Seriously though, they took him out because they were playing 4 on 5 with him out there. He airballed the next 3. He couldn't D up anyone.

Back to that 3 he hit.. Thabo Sefolosha must have been the only person in the world who wasn't expecting LeBron to shoot it. He backed up off him like he expected a one-legged LeBron to drive past him and finish over the interior defense with <5seconds left on the shot clock.

LeBron has been so terrible in the fourth quarter of this series, he's been so scared all series long. He's a mentally weak choker who's afraid of the last minute.. Skip Bayless told me so. No wonder he begged to come out..

Anyway, on Thabo.. Given the circumstances that is some of the worst defense I can remember. Everybody and their mother knew LeBron was gonna shoot except Thabo
