ETA: The Jazz leave Haslem open because the other option is Josh Howard or CJ Miles defending Lebron 1 on 1 going to the basket. If he passes THAT shot up then you have a case. But you can't seriously say that Lebron James not shooting over 2 people means he messed up. This can't actually be a serious point.


Really?! Haslem is shooting at like 20% this year from 10-15 feet. He's making that shot 1-5 times this year and you want him shooting it with the game on the line?

Jazz played the %s correct and go the reward. If they're going to run that play, put in someone who can shoot like Battier in that spot?

Maybe Spo called that play, but whatever--it was incorrect. You don't want a guy shooting 20% from that spot to take the final shot. Madness!

17 points (8-9 FGs), 5 rebounds 1 assist, 1 block in the forth quarter.

And you are still complaining ?

Doesn't matter how good the stats are in a loss.

LeBron screwed up on that last play. Although I do wonder if they would have praised his "play making abilities" had Haslem made the shot.

I think you could have lived with that play if it was Miller, Chalmers or even Battier taking the shot, but I'd rather see LeBron take a long contested two than dump off the Haslem there.


He didn't screw up, he found a mid-range shooter with an open mid-range shot. And sure, in a loss and so forth stats don't matter, but if he hadn't had those stats and that 4th quarter prior to the last 4,2 seconds they Heat would've been long gone by that time..

He's shooting 20% for the year but what is his percentage WIDE OPEN?

Lebron James shooting a contested shot vs 2 defenders vs Udonis Haslem shooting a wide open 15 footer. Are you seriously arguing that Lebron is taking a higher percentage shot? Seriously? I wonder if it wasn't Lebron James but Magic Johnson in that situation would this even be a discussion.

Plus it's not like Haslem is a historically poor shooter. He's slumping hard this year, but the team still has to have faith in him that he can revert to old form and nail those. They may even need that to happen.

I've seen kobe miss countless game winning shots. Only difference between kobe and lebron is that he's won a championship so it doesn't matter if he misses like 50 game winners in a row. Lebron passes or misses, media and people will talk about it. Doesn't matter if he even took the shot unless he makes it while pretty much everyone else, Drose, Kdurant, Kobe can take that shot a hundred times, miss 90 times, and it won't be as big of a deal because lebron has been to several finals. As soon as lebron gets even 1 championship, no one will ever talk about it again.

You think Haslem is taking contested 15 footers? I'd wager 90%+ of his shots from 15feet are WIDE OPEN this year. Whoever was responsible, it was a poor play to have Haslem take that shot.

Lebron was shooting at 66% tonight. I'd much rather him take that shot at the end.

Kerr shot at 53% that year. It was a good play. If they put someone like Battier, Chalmer, Norris in that spot instead of Haslem, you could live with them missing the shot.

But when you put a guy in a spot to win a game who's shooting 20% from there for the year, what do you expect to happen?

You're really OK with Haslem taking that final shot? You think that was the best play there?

I used to think Lebron was only joking around when he started that "blame Lebron" saying.
This much bias isn't a joke anymore, it's just sad.

haslem is like the last person I'd want shooting the last shot, but it's still better than lebron over 2 defenders.

It was a poor play overall. I don't know what the design was or who called it but when you're choice is a LBJ shot over a double or a Haslem 15 footer then you're doing something wrong. A team as good as Miami can surely get a better play in the clutch.
