I think you just affirmed everything I have been trying to say but not sure you are getting it.

 

What are you trying to say? You're ignoring the big moments he's had and only focusing on the down games? Every player has bad times down the stretch of games. Kobe, Jordan, Jerry West, Magic, Larry B, every big-time clutch guy. If he had a title right now no one would say any of this is my point and at no point in time the last 7 years did he play on the most talented team in the league. The Heat are flawed now, but by playing with Wade and Bosh I think he can really be held accountable for not finishing this year if they fall short. 5 games in the regular season does not a career make Bugatti. What am I ignoring? The four game sweep by the Spurs?

If by four points you mean almost every point in the last four minutes of the game for either team then yes. He put the game out of reach and there is no denying that as far as I'm concerned. Had Kobe hit those shots last night everyone would be saying he was a cold blooded killer.

 

I don't know why you always bring up Kobe I never said a word about comparing him to anyone. He scored 4 points in the last 4 minutes I don't really consider that closing out a team when the bulls scored 2 points in the last 7 minutes.

If I'm not mistaken he had 9 in the final 4 and 9 of the Heats final 12. Now I will agree that the Miami defense had more to do with keeping the Bulls away but had Miami not scored the Bulls would have still been in it, Lebron IMO closed the door once again with his scoring down the stretch.

I am not ignoring any of the big moments. Look back and I have praised him for those moments... case in point just a few posts back in respect to Wednesday's game. The Detroit game was amazing. The 5 regular season games I meant in jest evident by my smilie at the end of it and even said "in a sport where the playoffs are everything" LeBron has not yet gotten it done (whether it has been his fault or not).That will always be attached to him because of the lofty expectations and hunger for another Jordan like talent.

Because Kobe is the end-all of NBA clutchness in today's day and age.

Comparing him to Jordan is crazy. Talent level they are close, LeBron probably has more natural gifts. But Jordan could and would have beaten anybody. His Bulls team would have won against any other teams IMO, especially in '96 and '97. And hasn't got it done yet is a far cry from being bad at the end of games like you live to let on. That is a myth and simply is not true. The eye ball test may say that because he hasn't won a title, but looking close at his career it just doesn't add up.

4 and a 1/2.

Chris Bosh has been a monster tonight.

 

To say the least but still only 4 rebounds.

And poor defense on Boozer. But he's made up for it offensively.

And how about LBJ down the stretch, with things other than scoring? Can the clutch question die? It's going to soon enough IMO.

I wonder what the WL of the Heat is when Bosh scores 30?

They have been up around 6 the whole game and just now stretched it out and there is time left still. He has played a good game today but I wouldn't call any of this game clutch.

I don't understand how you just let Lebron waltz down the lane like that and not make him shoot a jumper.

3-1. That loss was in this series. His season high of 35 came in November, and the other two 30+ performances came in March.
