    Skip bayless/ steven a smith discussion. Lebron is soft.

    Do you think someone should be crowned a MVP if its accepted that he can not close a game?

    I think we accepted that Shaq couldnt hit free throws.
    Wade cant hit 3's( at a reasonable rate).

    All players have their flaws. Levron flaw is he cant close games because he is mentally weak. Just look at his FT% in late game situations.

    I dont think NBA fans or even the NBA greats can ever simply accept that lebrons flaw is he cant get it done in the end of the 4th quarter.

    For anyone that didnt see first take this morning here it is.

    You just expect superstars/mvps to be able to hit Ft's and be able to close games. Chamberlain was a crappy ft shooter too but thats different...

    When an mvp chokes/doesnt want the ball like lebron, its just ugly.

    It's dumb that they give this award out before the playoffs are over. How can a league MVP be chosen before the most important part of the season?

    I understand that the award would probably go to the Finals MVP every year if they did it that way, so my answer to that is why don't they let everyone the voters vote at the end of the regular season, and give that vote a weight...say 60% for example. And then, after the playoffs, they vote again and that vote is weighted at 40%. Something along those lines anyway.

    That way, Lebron would probably lose every year b/c he would get almost zero postseason points b/c of his constant choking.

    This way we would have a true MVP every season and not a phony like Lebron.

    They were talking on ESPN 1000 this morning that this season with the team down 2 or tied

    Mario Chalmers was 1-8 from the field.
    D Wade was 4-13 from the field
    Lebron was 7-17 from the FT LINE!!!!!

    That's just unacceptable...The fukkin FT line. They didn't say what his FG stats were though.

    that would be like saying its ok for a pro pool player to miss a straight in 9 ball


    you have to finish or close the game out

    you cant say he does all this or that during the game and its ok for him to miss the ft's

    winners close

    losers rack.

    Tim Duncan is not good in the clutch either chokes at the line too, still led his team to 4 titles, basketball is a team game Miami without Bosh is a bad team.

    Lebron is just an easy target. If he wqas actually soft, or such a flawed player then no time of your day would be spent talking about him.

    Miami is too good of a team to score 14 points in the 3rd. Thats what lost the game. FTs also lost the game, but no way heat should ever score 14. They play when they want to play and its a shame.
