LBJ Really wants to score 60...

[BOTSLAYER]

He says he can kind of often i have to think he will get the green light to try some time soon.

That would be the first step, then jacking up about 30 shots and being on fire.

 

[HuskerCradle2Grave]

He should do it in a playoff game,

on the road,

against one of the greatest teams ever,

with the best defense in the league,

and 5 eventual Hall of Famers.

And he should do it shooting 54%...

 

[Saturnmane]

Lebron and 60 pts, maybe in 3 games. Lebron needs 4 guys who can shoot to get him enough space to score. That's kinda pathetic don't ya think?

 

[Shanemansj13]

Had 55 through basically 3. He could do it if he wants, but don't think he cares. Cares more about getting his team involved.

Misleading thread title is misleading.

...AND he needs to use his off-arm to shove the defender out of the way nearly every time he drives to the basket.

Very pathetic indeed.

Does James get 53mins, 41fga and 21fta to do it like your example above did? Does his team also have to lose?

 

[OutlawImmortal]

Call me when he scores 82.

 

[lakersrule]

Kobe only needs three quarters to drop 60+

 

[HuskerCradle2Grave]

Sure. And he still couldn't do it...

 

[LeBronMonsterDunk]

Sure. And he still couldn't do it...

You don't think LeBron could score 60 with 41 FGA and 21 fta?


How dumb are you?

The question is, how dumb are you?

In that game that I was referencing, Jordan took 0 3pt shots. He scored 63 on 22 of 41 shooting with 21 Ft attempts hitting 19 for a .905%.

Using LBJ's career playoff averages (as we all know, he shrinks in the brightest light), James playing 53 minutes with 41 shots and 21 free throws would score 31 from the floor and 16 from the charity stripe for a grand total of 46. Not even close. And if you think that he could do that against a team that is considered one of the all time greats with the best D in the league that year not to mention its 5 hall of famers, then you sir, are the dumb one.

But you know what? I will give you LBJ's BEST playoff year stats to work with, .571 2pt% and .777 ft% (two different years by the way). That would finally get James to 63. Except it wouldn't be against a team like the '86 Celtics...

 

[Shanemansj13]

Lebron is shooting an amazing 62% this year while still scoring 27 pts/game. He is also shooting 52% from 3pt but taking a limited amount of 3's.

If he 62% like he has been averaging 26/41 from the field, no 3's. That 52 right thar. Now counting FT's---he is at 77%. We will say he only shoots 60% from FT's in this game and he takes 20 FT's. 12/20. 64 on the board.

But Lebron doesn't take 41 shots ever, he is too unselfish for that. He could score 70 if he wanted and take every shot like Kobe, but he doesn't play like that. That's why he is so great!

LOL @ using career averages when we're talking about today's LBJ......

the bolded above is hilarious.

 

[BOTSLAYER]

His shooting percentage should dip a lot if he took that many shots, players would start double teaming him etc.

ALso when MJ did it wasn't zone and double teaming illegal? Iso was the mandated D if iirc. So if LBJ gets to play that way oh fuck yes he is scoring 100 on 40 shots.

 

[BOTSLAYER]

I think this is the one, oh well good enough.

Is 61 good??!

I feel like the MVP discussion should be reopened too.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Ever since the Mount Rushmore conversation. He has looked like a pissed off Lebron. He looks like a man on a mission, another championship and MVP if he keeps this up. And just because KD is still putting up 30+ almost every night.

I never closed the MVP race. Anyone who thought the MVP race was finished in middle of January is an idiot
