Also, for his career, LeBron shoots 35.0% from outside the paint in the first 3 playoff rounds. That falls all the way to 23.8% in the Finals. Dude is just not a good shooter. He better work on that before he gets old and slows down.

He's probably got about 2-3 years until his athleticism starts declining and once he isn't able to get to the rim and elevate he will get mediocre pretty quick. That's also big body with a lot of miles.

Well coached, veteran basketball teams seem to have this guy's number.

If Miami goes back to taking the ball to the hole, they will be fine.

This is just false. LeBron is one of the best mid-range shooters in the world. He's never been a particularly good 3PT shooter, although he's shown significant improvement over the last few seasons (enough to be a 40% guy from out there this year). He's getting better in that area all the time.

He was a huge part of their Game 2 win in this series, not to mention was instrumental in winning the championship the previous season (scored 25 in Game 4 for the Heat to win by 6). Yeah, what an absolute shitbag of a role player.

I'm not sure why any of them think they can get away with a tank game against a team as good as the Spurs, but they can't afford another one clearly. The Spurs will finish them if given the chance in game 5. Having the best player in the game can only take you so far against a well-coached, superior team like the SAS. |

Not having a true Center in there killed them, and I don't understand what Spoelstra was thinking. The small lineup with Bosh at Center and LeBron being the biggest guy outside of him... just stupid.

Report: Erik Spoelstra considering starting Mike Miller in Game 4
Kurt Helin Jun 13, 2013, 2:50 PM EDT 1 Comment San Antonio Spurs v Miami Heat - Game Two Getty Images Miami needs floor spacing to get their offense going. The San Antonio Spurs are packing the paint, ignoring Dwyane Wade on the perimeter off the ball, taking away LeBron James’ driving lanes and daring anyone on the Spurs to regularly beat them by shooting over the top. The Heat have become stagnant, the weak side movement in their offense seems to have gone away. The only Heat player to really space the floor in this series is Mike Miller, who is 10-of-11 from three the NBA Finals. So Erik Spoelstra is considering starting him, reports Brian Windhorst of ESPN. Looking to jump-start a sluggish offense, Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra is considering changing his starting lineup for Game 4 of the NBA Finals and inserting the hot-shooting Mike Miller, sources said Thursday… If Spoelstra decides to make the change with Miami trailing the San Antonio Spurs 2-1 in the best-of-seven Finals, Miller likely would replace Udonis Haslem in the starting lineup to give the Heat more shooters in an attempt to spread the floor. Miller and LeBron have been +18.9 per 100 possessions when paired this series. It’s worth a shot. But whether he starts or comes off the bench, expect a lot of Miller and a lot of shooters on the court for the Heat. Two quick thoughts. First, it’s not just the offense that is the Heat’s problem — they were worse on the defensive end in Game 3. Fixing the offensive problems is less than half the story, although Miller certainly has been solid on defense. Second, I have a theory that the first coach to break his regular routine in a series — to really mess with rotations or radically alter strategy — is the coach that knows he’s beat. If you get all the way to the NBA Finals doing one thing, you don’t change it up unless you have to. Sometimes the desperation moves pay off and things change, but it’s not a good sign.
