This is what the media does,they overhype you so they can blame you when they play bad,and they under rate you so they can praise you when you do good.
Where do you people get this stuff? People call him a Top 5 player in the league, which he undoubtedly is. People were on his <Censored> for a month about how he wasn't clutch, about how he was a loser because the Cavs were losing. Now the media is saying he is reedeeming himself, which he is. He's now had 3 close games in a row where he has simply token over. I don't mean one play, I mean numerous plays late in games. Is he now the best NBA player late in games? No, but he is slowly but surely reedeming himself.I don't see where you guys get this "LeBron is King of Clutch" stuff. Send me an article from ESPN.com. Send me an artice from FoxSports.net. Send me an article from Hoopshype. Prove it to me guys.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (DaPrincezza_L'z21 @ Mar 27 2006, 12:43 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>every superstar has the ability to score, pass and get rebounds wen his team is crap at reboundin n scorin w/out him. he carries the ball the most on the cavs and gets to most open plays so he can score as much as he wants, but he wont win as much as the cavs want.</div>Not every star can score 30 a game, and Cleveland is not a crappy rebounding team. They have Big Z, Drew Gooden, AV, and donyell Marshall, not to mention LeBron. He still has to outrebound the other teams' players. He creates for himself, he is the one that makes those "open plays" happen.
Another thing most people don't realize about LeBron is that he is carrying the Cavs on his shoulders as much as any Superstar carrying his team besides Kobe. Donyell Marshall, who was supposed to be a big time contributor is averaging 9 PPG in 26 Minutes Per Game, on 39% shooting, 32% from downtown. Damon Jones, who was supposed to stretch the defense, is averaging 7 PPG in 26 Minutes Per Game, on 39% shooting and 37% from downtown. Larry Hughes has only played in 28 games, where he still only averaged 16 PPG on 41%. LeBron still has no consistent perimiter shooting. LeBron still has no player besides himself who can take over a game for atleast a portion of time, and he plays in perhaps the toughest division in the NBA. The Cavs are 11 games over .500, and he averages 30/7/7 on 47% shooting. Suddenly, this guy is an MVP candidate in my eyes
On yahoo.com's nba front page it said " King clutch" and had lebron's face on it. I didn't print screen it so you have to take my word on it. Ball saw it also,Atleast when they call melo " king clutch" he can back it up. Lebron cannot.
