[Highlight] LeBron James misses the 3-pointer to cut the Rockets lead to 1, and Jabari Smith Jr. converts both clutch free throws to put the Rockets up 6, with 11.9 seconds remaining in regulation
I just don’t think he can do it all (1st or second option) for a full postseason, let alone a series anymore
He was gassed since the end of game 3 the Rockets just completely choked it
If Houston closed out that game normally they’d be well in the driver’s seat right now
Jj redick was an idiot to play him in game 4.
What a dumb thing to say.
It is not dumb. Lebron needed rest. When you are up 3-0 take a rest for your 41yr old and take game 5.
Now we lost game 5 and lebron will be more gassed.
This is actually really simple and it is weird you don’t understand
It is dumb as fuck. If they closed it out in 4, they would’ve gotten their rest before the second round starts.
Their chances of closing out in four were really low. Like how are you guys so bad at fucking basketball analysis?
Captain hindsight
It wasn’t hindsight. He played 45mins game 3 and game 4 had very little rest time. The shit was obvious in the moment.
This is crazy you don’t load manage players in the playoffs.
I get what you mean but no competitor is gonna lose a playoff game to rest lol. But yes, JJ should have taken lebron out in G4 when he was trying to statpad
No sane coach is doing that.
It’s dumb to act like they should have sat bron for a whole playoff game. But they should have benched him much earlier to save his legs.
It isn’t dumb y’all are just not good at basketball analysis. Coaches already do this shit what do you think ankle sprains are? A small injury here or there
There is no competitive athlete on the planet that would sit out a playoff game with the chance to eliminate before the game even starts. People play through ankle sprains all the time in the playoffs.
He can , just gotta have more rest before the 4th q. Luka coming back should give us more quality 4th qr mins from bron
Luka’s not coming back for this series and it would be medical malpractice to even try and bring him back early because it’s clear as hell this team isn’t winning a ring as is
Not with that attitude.
Salomon hill really fucked up lebron
Damn he is gassed as fuck
OH FUCK DONT STOP IM ABOUT TO BELIEVE
Le0-6
imagine if all the series go to game 7
LeShort
LeBrick
That was all brakes no gas
AI
Rockets really blew it losing game 3 but I still believe that can win the next 2, would love to see it just for the historical significance
what does this mean for his legacy
Casual reminder that LeBron is 1-3 vs Curry in the Finals
Yes, you read that correctly. He lost 3 times to Curry
ooof, I know
MJ is better, LeBron is overrated
I mean MJ wasn’t anywhere near the playoffs at 40, let alone 41. Nothing that happens now with LeBron at 41 really impacts the legacy of either players.
I agree with you on paper but at the same time “LeBron James was the first player to blow a 3-0 lead” won’t look good on the resume 20 years from now when people don’t know context lol
Oh absolutely, people will find a way to hate no matter what. At the end of the day too, this is a team stat more than an individual one.
I mean Lebron’s not the reason he’s in the playoffs this season. He’s not the first nor second option on his team in the regular season.
Hating is overrated.
oh my god youre in every post
MJ got his pops murked
his pops also molested MJ’s sister
