Why not? KG went to Boston at the apex of his prime doing 20, 10, 5 in minny to win a tile. He even told James to do the very thing after they beat cle in the semis after the game on tnt for all to seeComment -
But yes it does feel like sweet vindication to see lebron get a dose of his own medicine. Esp after durant was robbed of 2 titles, first by miami and the super team then by westbrook and his stupidity, severe stupidityComment -
"You either have a RING or not!"Comment -
Yep, he started the super team, GS just did it better. Tough luck Bron, your time is over.Comment -
Yes everything that is wrong in this universe is lebron's fault, what was he thinking trying to winComment -
Lebron from 3 last night 4 for 9, the rest of his team was 8 for 35 most of them wide open looks from lebron.Comment -
Not his lawyer doggy, i just dont't feel like the hate is warranted most of the timeComment -
Kind of like Roids in baseball. Once one guy does it and wins everyone else will do it.Comment -
With the game on the line, LeBron got the ball taken from him. He just keeps inventing new ways to not come through in the clutch. He gets what he deserves.Comment -
He waa fouled lol. Korver needed to come up clutch and didntComment -
warriors drafted pretty much entire team then lost 2 impact players and added 1, hardly what boston or miami did
boston got garnett in sweetheart trade with kevin mchale, lebron and bosh acted like they were taking pay cuts when they were just deferring money till later. GSW have i think 8th ot 9th highest payroll only
so you are punished now for drafting multiple all stars

These stats dont include this year's games
Sunday's Cavaliers-Bulls game should have finally put that conversation to rest. By now you've seen the play. LeBron receives the inbounds pass deep in the left corner with 1.5 seconds remaining and the game tied at 84. As he fades to his left he effortlessly rises up over the outstretched arms of Bulls guard Jimmy Butler and drains the jump shot as the buzzer sounds. The basket gave the Cavaliers an 86-84 win and allowed them to even their second-round series with the Chicago at two.
This was the third time in his career that James hit a game-winning shot at the buzzer during a postseason game, according to ESPN Stats & Info. That's the same number that Michael Jordan hit in his career. LeBron has also now made four go-ahead shots in the "final seconds" of playoffs games, per ESPN Stats & Info. Over the past 15 years no one has hit more.
In the playoffs LeBron has now taken 10 potential go-ahead shots in the final five seconds of the fourth quarter or overtime. He's connected on six of them, according to ESPN's Brian Windhorst. Jordan was 5-of-11 in such situations during his career.
And let's not leave Kobe Bryant out of this conversation either. LeBron is now 8-of-19 on potential game-tying or go-ahead shots taken in the final 24 seconds of the fourth quarter or overtime during postseason games, per ESPN's Aloki Pattani. Bryant has hit less (7) despite taking more (28). There's also this:
LeBron's first playoff buzzer-beater was in Game 2 of the 2009 conference finals against the Orlando Magic. Cleveland fell to Orlando in six games. But LeBron did all he could. He averaged 38.5 points, 8.3 rebounds, 8.0 assists and shot 49 percent from the field while playing 44.3 minutes per game.
LeBron's next buzzer-beater came when he was in Miami, during Game 1 of the 2013 conference finals against the Indiana Pacers. The Heat eventually knocked off the Pacers in seven games and went on to beat the Spurs in the Finals to capture their second straight NBA championship. In Game 7 of that series LeBron scored 37 points, tying the record for most points scored in the seventh game of the NBA Finals.
LeBron has now played 166 total playoff games. In total he's averaging 27.9 points, 8.5 rebounds and 6.5 assists while shooting 48 percent from the field. Jordan played in 179 playoff games and averaged 33.4 points, 6.4 rebounds and 5.7 assists and shot 49 percent from the field.
LeBron's postseason Player Efficiency Rating is 27.4; Jordan's was 28.6.
When LeBron's been on the floor during the playoffs his teams have scored 115 points per 100 possessions and surrendered just 101, per Basketball Reference. For Jordan those numbers were 118 and 104.
As for Kobe, he's played in 220 playoff games. His averages are 25.6 points, 5.1 rebounds and 4.7 assists. He's connected on 45 percent of his postseason shots. His postseason Player Efficiency Rating is 22.4. His offensive rating is 110 and his defensive rating is 106.
LeBron James may not be the greatest player of all time and he's certainly not infallible. One thing he has proven himself to be, though, is one of the best clutch performers the NBA has ever seen. Sunday's shot wasn't an aberration. It was just the latest chapter in the yet-to-be completed book.Comment -
