"Win in six"

You may or may not heard of the statement that Brandon Jennings made about the series with the Miami Heat. His exact words were "I think we will win in six." When I heard this statement i could do nothing but laugh, which I am sure the Miami Heat did as well.There is no way the 8th seed had any chance in beating the best team in the NBA in six games. In his defense that is the most accurate answer you could when asked "Do your team have a chance at winning the series?" He couldn't just say he think were going to lose for straight, which will happen, he would sound like a coward if he said that. Lebron reaction was basically saying that Jennings comments were the least of his worries and the most important thing was preparation for the series. Wade had the same thought as me. He thought that Jennings comments were what Jennings was suppose to say. In my opinion I think that Jennings really meant what he said because me being a basketball player, you never ever say someones flat out better than you. If he would have had the mind set that they were going to get beat in four than that would be a problem. In conclusion, Jennings was 100% to have faith in his game and also faith in his team to win in six games against the heat.

MVP Race

Its the time of the year where the best of the best is chosen by the people. Its time for the defense of player of the year, all defensive team, scoring title, most importantly the M.V.P award. Right now it is for of obvious who will win his fourth MVP award. Lebron was obviously the best player this year. His numbers are just remarkable. In the two games he's played in recently, James shot close to 70 percent, averaged 27.5 ppg, 6.0 apg and 5.5 rpg. His total stats this seasons has spoken for itself.

 He averaged 26.8 ppg, 8.0 rpg, and 7.3 apg, those numbers are crazy. I know the other M.V.P candidates may average more points than Lebron but Lebrons overall stats are just so well balanced and his shooting percentage is crazy. To think he made more than half his shots this, shooting at a outstanding 56.5% this season in total. In my opinion Kevin Durant is the only other candidate that has a chance to get even close to competing with Lebron for the M.V.P award, and Kevin Durant, who is a great scorer and knows how to get buckets, doesn't have the whole overall game as Lebron. He is lacking the defensive aspect to his game, as which Lebron has. If Lebron wins his fourth award, he will join the elite company of Kareem Abdul-Jabber, Bill Russell, Michael Jordan, and Wilt Chamberlain as players who have won at least four MVP award. I know Lebron main goal is to get a ring but it will be nice if he give his fans something to brag about (4 M.V.P awards).

I was watching the show "First Take", and they were arguing about is Lebron James an Hall of fame now in his career. In my opinion he is absolutely a Hall of Fame player now in his career. Lebron has done some amazing things in the past two years. Including saving the Heat from being eliminated from the playoffs in game 6, when he had 45 points. Also to winning a title after 10 seasons in the league and being criticized for every little thing he does. Lebron deserves to be in the Hall of Fame just alone of him handling all the harsh critics and still continued to perform on a high level. Another thing to think of is, the only excuse people said he's not the best is because he didn't have a ring, but now that he does have one why isn't he the best now? Personally I think if you don't think Lebron is a Hall of Fame player now, then you obviously hate Lebron or you just don't watch basketball.

Big Night in New Orleans for Lebron James!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lebron took his frustration from being beat up in the Chicago game and used it to good use. When I say a big night I may be underestimating his performance. He went nuts, hitting 7 3's in the game and hit six shots in a row at one point in the game. He had the opposing fans cheering for him. Check out the video above.

I found two articles  talking about Lebron being fouled excessively in his last game vs. the Chicago Bulls. One article talked about how Lebron is completely right about his frustration about getting fouled excessively. Also it discusses how Eric Spoelstra doesn't want to make a big deal abut it he said " It's just Miami vs. Chicago basketball." The other article talked about how Lebron shouldn't complain about the fouling because he also foul kind of on the aggressive side. The example used was when he got a flagrant fouled called on him when he tried to run over Carlos Boozer when he set a pick on Lebron. In my opinion I think Lebron is totally right. Lebron plays the game the right way and by right way I mean he doesn't really get technical fouls or flagrant fouls. This year Lebron only had one flagrant foul and he only got that one because he was standing up for himself. He also only have 6 technicals this year which is good considering the most technical fouls is 14.

Lebron vs Boston 3/18/13

Omg!!!!!! Did you see Lebron just flat out embarrass Jason Terry? In my opinion it may be one of the best dunks I've ever seen in a live game. Earlier during the week Terry was asked "Are you impressed with Miami Heats winning streak?" Terry replied by saying " I'm not impressed with the 22 game winning streak or anything else for that matter." Well I wonder is Terry impressed now. Have a look at maybe the best dunk ever under.

                                       

Introduction- PLN 1

Hi, my name's Jacolby. I would like to start a blog on Lebron James and his road to another M.V.P year, championship, and another M.V.P of the finals. Last year Lebron had an incredible season last year. His most amazing moment was when The Heat were facing elimination when they were down 3-2 to the Celtics in a 7 game series. His teammates said that they knew he was going to play a good game because he had a really focus look the whole day. He scored a season high in the playoffs of 45 points. He was literally unstoppable that night no one was able to guard him. From there he just took his team "on his back" and lead them to the Finals and to win. Topping the season off with gold medal with the U.S.A team. He was considered to be the unofficial M.V.P of the U.S.A team. Im interested in blogging about Lebron James because he a outstanding player and he is so humble. Even though he is so good, he doesn't brag about being good he just gives his teammates credit for most of his achievements. I will also have Lebron James top play or plays throughout the week.
