and what about the games that James has taken over in "crunchtime" and won throughout this years playoffs? You guys are cherry-picking your arguement off three games in the Finals, and even one where LeBron created the game winning play. Are you really not supposed to dish it to Bosh when he has a wide open look? it's a basketball TEAM for a reason. you're trying to say that a mans ego is more important than winning a game. Plus, you can "close out games" defensively, not just on offense.

I dont care about the whole "he's the single best player in the world". It's impossible to know and completely subjective. He might be the most talented basketball player in the world. But guys like Wade, Durant, Paul, Dirk, (Kobe before this year) etc are all amazing players, any day you could say either one of them is the best player in the world. Shoot, when Dwight Howard is on his game, he's basically unstoppable.


and it was completely tongue in cheek. I follow football, golf, and baseball very closely.. basketball not as closely but I played the damn sport for over 10 years and have played in hundreds of basketball games. If you dont think I know the difference between a closer in baseball and what you guys are refering to, I cant help you.

Creating plays? He passed to a wide open guy. The player that made the Bosh shot happen was Haslem who screened 2 people. Did you watch the game? He didn't create anything at the end of the game.

You might not be interested in the best in the world stuff, but that was what Ateam and I were talking about. No one is denying he's really, really good. I'm just saying in crunch time I want Wade taking the shot, not Lebron. So, IMO Lebron isn't the best in the world.

Who cares how many basketball games you've played or what sports you follow? What does that have to do with anything?

that had to do with you saying i was lying about the baseball closer comment being tongue in cheek. I easily know the difference.
