LeBron James jealous of Durant

[Lone Granger]

LeBron James of Miami Heat 'jealous' of Kevin Durant's shot attempts - ESPN

LeBron wants to be a chucker like...

lol

Stupid comment by LBJ....There's nothing good about shooting 14-34

 

[trojanfan12]

Larry Bird once said: "Hell, I could have scored 40 anytime I wanted to, but I thought the idea was to win".


Seems like Lebron has a similar approach. I think there are times when he is too unselfish, but in a team sport, that's not a bad problem to have.

 

[Shoveyjoe]

Is Durant considered a chucker though?

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

It's OK Lebron. You might not be as good of a shooter, but you still lead the league in flops.

What a crock of crap, all this is is Lebron admitting he is not going to win a scoring title yet again. Anyone that watches Durant play that calls him a chucker is blind or jealous, possibly both.

If you want some actual context, rather than ESPN's 2-sentence "Lebron is jealous of Durant" version...

haha, honestly didn't even notice that... it is an interesting article though, and not an entirely pro-LeBron one either.

The writer interviewed LeBron, and that's where the 'jealous' quote came from.

Even if I saw a real LeBron article with merit I doubt I'd ever put it up lol. I just put this thread up to start shit.

I like controversy.

 

[BOTSLAYER]

Heat Haters would love that article, you could easily spin every thing in it to make it prove your point.

I love it. I've never in my life heard a bad quote from the Bird man. All lovers of basketball, read this book TODAY!

Well go back to Cleveland if u want that then. The fact that he's even thinking this way is not good news at the least

Everything he said is dumb dumb dumb. He think Durant is enjoying this? I can guarantee you kd prefer Westbrook to be in the lineup so he can only shoot 16 or 17 times per night

Agreed.

 

[True Lakers Fan]

I'm not a Lebron slurper like most of you in here, but I seriously doubt that Lebron meant how that is being interpreted. He probably was commenting on how many free throws Durant gets and calls on non-existent fouls.

I would be willing to bet that what Lebron said is being taken out of context and now is being harrassed a bit much. Just saying

 

[LAKERSUSCBAM]

I'm interpreting it as he could be the scoring leader if he had more shot attempts based on his comment about his current FG%....well he's had his opportunities with 9 or so games missed by Wade.

And still lead the league in scoring.
