I don't think I have seen someone fall so far after two games. He's not a bad shooter at all, he's a very good shooter. He's overadjusting his shots because he's never had so much time on the perimeter and never had a team so effectively block the basket while closing the passing lanes. There are not any other players that can keep defenses honest on the team, every other player is one-dimensional. Don't forget he lead the worst finals supporting cast ever to the finals last year. Don't forget Kobe took 47 shots in a playoff game and did just as bad when he was young. Young players overadjust. LeBron is still the man.

I'm a Celtic fan and even I think all the Lebron trash talking is getting bad. The guy is so good i think we all forget he is still a kid in NBA terms, yet he nearly dominates the league. He is the only reason his team is even in the playoffs and the only reason they got to the finals last year. Simple fact is, the Spurs were too good to get beat by one player, no matter how good he is.

I fully expect Lebron to recover at home and play better against us, even if I still think the Celtics win in 5.

This is all part of the media acting like morons.  All that matters is the short run.  You are either wonderful or horrible.  The championship is decided by whoever plays best in the 1st round.  Offense is greater than defense. 

I could go on.  Ignore the media always.

...lebron doesnt suck....but he blew it bigtime by missing that layup late in game 1 that possibly could have resulted in the cavs stealing home court advantage.......pretty sure he'll recover now that things are moving over to cleveland....

I agree man... this guy is 23 for crying out loud... no 23 year old has ever been as responsible for their teams success is Lebron... I know people get annoyed with all the hype he gets and I think thats the main reason because people get annoyed with how much they hear how great he is.  But these people that are killing him right now need ot back off a lot... let the guy finish the series before you lambast him anyway... not syaing it will happend but he could go off for 30 the next 4 games and the cavs win the series, again not saying that will happen but geez... all the haters need to lay off

Forget the shooting percentage what about the turnovers. When you have two of the worse playoff games since the 1940's you need to take some slack for it.

Lets see how resilient the young fella is.

Exactly! When people hype you up and call you King when you are only 19, then you have the worst 2 games in playoffs history, then you will here the bash. If you don't want to here it and keep saying he's only 23, then don't act like he's the greatest.

LeBron has lived up to the hype as well as anyone in his position ever could. 2 games don't change that.

Diehard basketball fans will always hate LeBron because he gets the attention he deserves, though.

Doesn't matter though because people said the same thing about MJ and all the other great players when they were young.

The OC NateDog and Lakers+usc have it right. LeBron sucks. He should get all the blame. Whenever they lose it's all on him....but when he wins it's his teammates coming through for him. How can the term King be crowned to such a sorry player?? I'd be surprised if LeBron keeps it under 10 turnovers in Cleveland, along with shooting 2 more games of 25%. Forget what's he done until this point, LeBron will never recover his image after those 2 games. Absolutely pathetic. Prince James should be coming off the bench it games 3 and 4. When's Mike Brown gonna realize that LeBron just can't get the job done in the playoffs?? He's a choke artist. Hears to hoping LeBron leaves Cleveland when his contracts up....he's garbage.
