Was it a great basketball play? Of course not but he was trying to make something happen and there are 4 others guys standing around watching. I can't understand why Miller wasn't in the game to spread the court. KG didn't even consider guarding Haslem till the ball went his way. At least with Miller in there you have to respect his shot.
And funny how Wade who has been awful for a lot of the playoffs gets off despite just flipping the ball to James and running out of bounds on the baseline. Or not drawing the foul on Daniels on the last shot in OT

Wade gets no pass with me, he stunk the entire game. Maybe he was irritated the play wasn't called for him, I don't know.
Like I said, James is a fabulous player, he just doesn't want that last shot. Why did he drive right? Left was clearly the better option. You didn't answer, any of those other guys getting that shot off? He passed to a guy that had no prayer of making the shot, so anything James would have taken was better than the option he chose.
Yes, passing to an OPEN teammate when doubled is the best move but you can't do it with no time and the guy isn't open. A 30 footer was a MUCH better option than what he did.
