Kyrie Irving has asked the Cavs to trade him; Lebron blindsided by trade request

[TheEgyptianConniption]

Instead of pulling up for a 3 to make up the difference he will settle for a cherry picked lay up late in games when the Cavs are hopelessly behind.

Just reading through the last few pages and this sticks out..how are you gonna make up the difference with a 3 if you're hopelessly behind late in the game? There's an argument to be made sure but you should try to make sense even if you hate the man...

 

[DIMES]

If we have to trade. I rather have Cj McCollum in cleveland.


He's just as good, arguably even better scorer & a more willing passer than Kyrie.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

He did not vs kawhi games 3-5, and no one thinls he played better than durant this series. This is why bron stans are the worst, they only look at the aggregate of stats, and not context.

I didnt forget bron st aying in blowouts so his numbers could look better vs the spurs

Complete bullshyt that has already been debunked. Lebron barely scored at all late in those blowouts.

Game 1: Lebron's last basket cuts the lead to 2 with 4:09 left in the game. He was taken out with cramping 10 seconds later, and San Antonio finished on a 16-3 run without him. Lebron had 25 on 9-17 shooting from the field and 2-3 from three-point range.

Garbage time: 0 Garbage time stats: 0



Game 2: Miami wins the game by 2. Lebron had 35 on 14-22 shooting from the field and 3-3 from three-point range.

Garbage time: 0 Garbage time stats: 0



Game 3: Miami gets blown out, but there was no "garbage time" until the 4th quarter. The game was still within 11 when the 4th quarter started and was at 13 when Lebron made his final shot with 6:31 left in the game. Lebron was 7-10 for 18 points (including 2-3 from three) in the first 30 minutes of the game, and 2-4 for 4 points in the fourth. There was no "inflating his stats" whatsoever in that game.

Garbage time: about 5 minutes, after Ginobli pushed the lead to 18. Garbage time stats: 0-2 for 0 points.



Game 4: Lebron 10-17 from the field and 4-8 from three for 28 points. He didn't score at all in the fourth quarter, missing his final three shots (all from three). The supposed "garbage time" in this game was the beginning of the 3rd quarter, when Lebron went on a run to cut a 22-point lead to only 13 with 7:36 left in the 3rd quarter. To that point Lebron was 7-9 from the field, 2-3 from three, for 19 points. The idea that this is "garbage time" is ridiculous - they were making a real comeback.

Garbage time: Maybe 17 minutes, after Diaw pushed the lead back to 20. Garbage time stats: 3-6 for 9 points, none in the 4th.



Game 5: Lebron 10-21, including 3-9 from three, for 31 points. His final shot was with 7:32 left to cut the lead to 18, his next-to-last basket had cut the lead to 14 with 9:57 left. The game was actually tight in the first half (when Lebron was 6-12 for 20 points), the Spurs didn't pull away until the 2nd half, and didn't really put it away until the 4th quarter. And Lebron's stats were BETTER in the 1st half than in the 2nd half.

Garbage time: Maybe 17 minutes, after Ginobli pushed the lead to 21. Garbage time stats: 4-8 for 11 points, only 4 in the 4th.



Your claim was a complete, utter lie. Lebron only scored four points in fourth-quarter garbage time the entire series.

But he really doesnt, I have noticed the NBA ESPN analysts start blaming everyone else but Lebron James when the Cavs lose. Lebron is perfectly fine with this. As a matter of fact notice how he goes hyperactive trying to pad his stats so he can be the guy that looks good in a loss. He is on some but I got me a triple double. Instead of pulling up for a 3 to make up the difference he will settle for a cherry picked lay up late in games when the Cavs are hopelessly behind. He is out there boxing out Tristan Thompson for rebounds and shyt, trying to get his numbers. He learned this during the 2015 finals when the cavs were down two players and he went out there and playing like an individual stat machine to the praise of the media. He has been taking the same approach ever since.

These Lebron conspiracy theories. Every play is about media manipulation...

You gon miss Kyrie breh, that nikka is great and deep inside you know this

I'm a Spurs fan.
I'm not going to miss anything.

Kyrie is a great player.
I just hope that the reason he wants out of Cleveland is that he's making a pre-emptive move because he thinks Lebron is leaving next summer -- and he does not want to be stuck on a bad team in a boring city until 2020.

C.J. next to Bron

The Akron/Canton connection

 

[IllmaticDelta]

He did not vs kawhi games 3-5,

he was better than kawhi the entire series

and no one thinls he played better than durant this series.

stop it.....almost everyone thought lebron outplayed durant in the finals and they were right. When lebron sat, the Cavs went to shyt. When Durant sat, warriors stayed even or increased the lead.

This is why bron stans are the worst, they only look at the aggregate of stats, and not context.

I look at both and anyone that watched the finals saw that Lebron outplayed Durant and had to do more for his team...Durant had the easiest job in the world

 

[IllmaticDelta]

KD came through and crushed the buildings, I don't care about no triple double avg when your team lose in 5.

he ain't crush shyt...if anything, he was wave riding a well oiled machine to an easy title

 

[fifth column]

he ain't crush shyt...if anything, he was wave riding a well oiled machine to an easy title

History was written we can all turn the page. KD came saw Bron and conquered

only cause he easily scored on Bron's weak defense against him. I've seen Chris Paul guard KD better than what Bron did.

Name a player in history that scores 30+, gets double digit assists, and still plays lock down defense .

I'll wait

This is the exact reason why Kyrie wants to leave
Defend the King at all cost

lebron had a bigger load to carry on his end






while durant had the lesser load and couldn't stop lebron

I've seen Chris Paul guard KD better than what Bron did.

lebron was too drained to do what he had to on offense and then guard KD

Or we can take a closer look at his bench stench which has not merely been “bad,” but historically putrid. How putrid? It’s worse than you think.

LeBron James can't even afford to spend two minutes on the bench during the Finals.

LEBRONS’s BENCH STENCH IN 5 STATS:

1) 12 Points in Two Minutes

The Korver play overshadowed Game 3’s most demoralizing example of LeBron’s bench burden that has lasted his whole career. LeBron played 46 of 48 minutes. Here were the incredible results:



Cavs were +7 points in 46 minutes with LeBron

Cavs were -12 points in 2 minutes with LeBron on the bench

LeBron sat for just two minutes: Game. Series. Rubber Match.

In the same game, Kevin Durant sat seven minutes, and the scoring differential remained the same.

LeBron's astonishing bench stench real reason for Finals losses

 

[10bandz]

KD is still not better than Bron

people are getting carried away with that shyt
