Something I realized about LeBron. He is a very smart player.

He saves his energy for the 4th QTR.

Remember how gassed Duncan and Parker were in the 4th QTR these last two games? While watching these games I would wonder why LeBron would start off slow and pretty much pass first on most possessions. I'd wonder why he wasn't aggressive.. I realized it now and its because he saves his energy for the 4th QTR and thats when he really turns it on. While most players on the other team are gassed because of going all out he saves his best for last..

I have a whole new appreciation for this guy..

LeBron has an extremely high basketball IQ.. He understands the game very well.

Huh?

You mean he isn't a soft choke artist with no heart or intangibles?

That is what I learned on the rx

I was a semi-lebron hater two years ago. I've said since 07 he is the best player in the league and he is better than Kobe.

But now I think LeBron is genius. Also there is no denying that he is clutch now, you simply can't say that. He is not timid anymore nor does he disappear late in games.

Yup I had the same conversation with a friend last night ... Game 6 kinda reminded me of a page out of Jordans book, how many games can you remember where Jordan did jack shit for 3 quarters only to put 20 in the 4th and get the win ... Lebron knows how to pace himself, and his Basket IQ is one of the greatest of all time IMO ....
