  I thought the criticism of LeBron prior to this game was a bit much, but he absolutely didn't even attempt to get involved offensively tonight. Yes, he plays well in the other facets of the game, but if he is even decent tonight on the offensive end, this series is 3-1. I don't know what the hell his problem is, but Wade has to be pissed.

  Game 5 will be epic. Miami wins, they win it all. No way I can see Dallas win two straight in Miami if they lose 2/3 at home. Dallas wins, they have a 3-2 advantage and I can see them winning...probably 67-75 percent likely. They have a lot of older guys with the resolve to overcome Miami's natural talent, which could easily stop the Heat from being able to win two straight.

  He made the right choice for Cleveland. He was never going to lead Cleveland anywhere because he can't.

  Someone on the Heat is obviously banging Gloria. I'm gonna go with Eddie House.

  The best player in the NBA, better than Jordan (Pippen), goes 3-11 with 8 points and 4 turnovers in game 4 of the NBA finals? Wow.

  He did the best he could with that group of talent honestly, no one else in the league could have won a title with those teams, Kobe Bryant included, thats being real.

  of course you forgot the 9 boards, 7 assists, and 2 steals, but scoring is the only stat that matters right? hmm

  Not the only stat that matters...but when you can score at will and your team is in a close game.....SCORE lol

  Yes he would, because he doesn't go into hibernation when the playoffs roll around.

  Come on. MJ averaged 33+ in the playoffs. Whoever scores the most points wins right? Heat needed his scoring, not his deferring to Haslem and Miller.

  no one in the league can score at will, these are elite athletes and coaches that game plan to take away your strengths. Wade and Bosh have better matchups and they are getting the shots, Lebron does need to be more aggressive however for them to close this thing out

  Exactly. When you say that there is no one in the league that can stop you one-on-one, then back it up when you're needed most.

  no he wouldnt, remember Kobe's laker teams after Shaq left, 8 seed every year in the playoffs and bounced in the first round, not easy when you're playing with Kwame Brown, Luke Walton and Smush Parker

  Run a pick for him and he can get to the hoop when he wants to. And either finish or get fouled. Nobody in the league can stop lebron from penetrating if he wants to
