Lebron puts up really good numbers, and for your information numbers do count. How else do you keep track of progress, records broken, and determine team standings. Statistics are based on how well a player performs night after night, if basketball or sports wasn't based on numbers, then why not just hand out a sticker to the most improved player or the one "that sweat his little heart out". LOL

I don't know if you just completely dismiss concept in your life or you're doing it here because you have no valid points to argue. Like how statistics aside, Lebron has choked in the finals and at the end of games even though he shoots above 50%...hence "statistics don't mean sh*t"


...I'm betting you didn't understand that concept either.

Also, if we go by your concept of the importance of numbers and stats, the Heat are the 3rd best team in the league...period.

Dude, you just lost all validity by saying what you said before, really? Do you even watch basketball, are you a fan? Or are you just one of those guys who watches one or two games, acts like he knows what hes talking about and makes up numbers or doesn't account for numbers in realistic situations, but much rather base arguments on "heart" and who is more popular. lol

Lebron is putting up better numbers than any other forward in the league..and most point guards for that matter.

And I thought this was about the Heat being the superior team, which they are statistically, lol.

Lebron by himself doesn't make up the team remember, the whole team was to blame for the demise of the Heat in last years playoffs, however, if you compare #s from this season to last you will know what I mean that they are on top right now.

Bottom line the Heat are better than the Lakers in almost every aspect (check the facts and shooting %s), having a legend on their team doesn't automatically make them great. It only makes him great. lol

sorry dude, completely forgot that the ultimate goal in an NBA season is to have the best stats...obviously I'm an idiot that doesn't watch basketball. I was totally confused because of that trophy and ring they give to teams at the end. peace bro.

But for the record, stats are what ultimately cut down the team standings in each conference/division to determine who makes the playoffs..

Lol you forget that its because of players who shoot well (including 3pters), and defend well that teams can win games. Its all an intricate part of basketball, how well you perform is how you are judged and filtered. Until the best team stands.

And you must really hate me and the team to go out of your way to change your avatar and status....i feel so humbled. ha.
