Didn't know that, I still give Bosh a break over the youtube NBA All Star campaign a few years ago too, that still cracks me up. Lebron just comes off as so arrogant that when he chokes it sticks out really bad.

 

Agreed. After learning he took 2 free throws in this game I am questioning his head and where it is right now. For someone as arrogant and egocentric it is weird to see him be so mentally fragile. The Decision makes even more sense now. He can't handle the scrutiny that comes with failing. He needs to be propped up and it is shocking to see someone we all know shouldn't need to be propped HAVE to be propped up to perform at the level expected of him. Sad.

He probably deserves some, but I also don't look at Bosh as a team leader Wade and/or James are the two that should carry this team when it's on the line, not Bosh.

 

No doubt, but if Dirk is going to call out Jason Terry and Lebron's failures overshadow Wade's greatness in the media at at some point the 3rd part of the Superfriends needs to be addressed. He isn't getting it done either.

Same maybe but when you are the "King" it is your responsibility when your team loses and wins.

 

No argument from me there.

Lebron has 2 games at home to erase all of this off everyones mind.

 

That's what I said before tonight's game and then again at the start of the 4th quarter tonight. He has to do it in both games for me to start thinking differently about him. Having a great game in one of the two will just say to me that he was on that game, versus say he is "the man". The Heat are D. Wade's team. LeBron is Pippen and D. Wade is MJ versus it being the other way around.

Ya, I think the media might be calling Bosh out if Lebron and Wade were both getting it done in this series. Any time Lebron struggles close to Bosh though the focus will be on Lebron. Lebron honestly has no one to blame for it but himself, I mean his attitude is part of what has made him such a media focal point.

A game winner in game 7 of the Finals could go a long way in changing someones prospective of him.

Having a "witness" tattoo doesn't help.

The NBA is getting what they hoped for because it is now alot more likely that there could be a game 7. They have the big Sunday game where they can hype do or die for the Heat for 2 & 1/2 days.

 

I am afraid that Dallas could have one of those games where they hit everything in game 6. Miami has to play better defense.

 

For all of the talk about Bosh, LBJ or Wade I think that Miami lost this game by getting in the penalty so early in the 4th. They really couldn't play as tough on the defensive end for fear of sending Dallas to the line. They had to send more help because of this and Dallas hit some huge shots.

 

The possession where Wade ran the shot clock down and then the ball was tipped crippled Miami as well IMO. They had a chance to really take over the game and instead turned the ball over. No points were scored off of that but it really ending Miami's offensive rhythm. They started play iso ball again. Poor shots, waiting too long to attack, etc.

That play I think that you are talking about came after the Mavs were already on their run, and had taken the lead. It was where Marion missed the layup on the other end because of James correct? The play that really hurt them was Lebron getting called for the charge, if they call it the other way they have a 3 point play right there and gain the momentum back. They had their chances even with the Mavs making everything at the end. You had the play you mentioned with Wade, then the Charge on Lebron, and then Lebron missning that wide open 3 and settling for a jumper when he had Kidd one on one. Lebron shooting so well early in the playoffs might have been a bad thing for him, because now he keeps settling for the jump shot instead of being the best finisher at the rim that he is.

Huge win for the Mavericks last night. I know it's going back to Miami, but I don't see the Heat beating Dallas twice with the way they are playing as a team right now. If Jason Terry continues the way he just played and the rest of the team plays to its full potential, it might be over in game six, which wouldn't hurt my feelings. I didn't expect James to have as much trouble as he's been having, especially down the stretch.

I kind of agree. I can see Dallas having their best game of the series in game 6. I can also see LBJ playing much better at home. I do remember everyone saying the same things about how Boston would win in LA last year when they were up 3-2 and headed back to Staples for games 6 & 7. Exact same scenario as last year.

At some point Chris Bosh has to undergo the necessary scrutiny reserved for LBJ. At least some of it.

 

It's almost laughable with Bosh now for you. They'll take 19 and 10 from their third best player every single game. Bosh isn't supposed to create for others and he isn't one of their first two options. In this series Bosh has played well, Wade has been great and LBJ has been terrible as far as his standards. You're too caught up on Bosh making a lot of money. He deserves it especially for his position and he's giving them exactly what they need and expect.

I agree. They are getting out of Bosh what they expected.

Lebron tweeted before the game... "Now or never"

When asked about he said it was a personal message to himself. Huh? Why did you tweet it to your millions of followers?

He was on the stage with Wade and Bron when they guaranteed multiple championships. He was brought in as part of the SuperFriends. He deserves some blame also. If it were Boston we would be criticizing whichever part of the big 4 wasn't performing. Why are you so intent on defending Bosh's disappearing acts in the 4th quarter. He has made 1 play the entire playoffs in the 4th quarter worth mentioning. Boozer gets dogged relentlessly for being overpaid and not performing. People are scouting out nursing homes for KG. Pau Gasol......smh........Why is Bosh exempt from the same expectations?
