Rodney Hood is suffering from anxiety about being in the finals. He can't handle the pressure (his own words). Korver should be starting over JR.

[@bill11ringsrussell66]

Compton 187 he getting them open shots if they make it or not is not his problem u think he is like yoga

[@CycleCruza]

Why does Lue continue to play JR? I'd rather see Hood play.

[@mattnorris7124]

I guess it doesn't set a good example based on the fact that Hood refused to play in garbage time in a game during the Playoffs but the Finals Series is on the line now, he's got to change something and JR hasn't turned up physically or mentally, Hood might be that spark they need.

[@omarlozano9374]

If you bench JR after what he did in game 1, then what you're doing is deflating his self-confidence, while not having a guaranteed net-positive replacement for him. If he performs badly again in game 3, then I'd say starting someone else in game 4.

[@mattnorris7124]

Then you're putting yourself under the pump. If he plays him in Game 3 and they lose they're then down 3-0 and on to get swept, Game 4 would be too late to make that adjustment. Absolute latest I would leave it would be halftime in Game 3, see how he's tracking that far through and if he still hasn't turned up give his minutes to Hood & Clarkson. My issue isn't so much what happened in Game 1 even though that could have been a completely series defining moment, it's more the fact that he showed next to no resilience in Game 2 to get past it. 5 points on 22% shooting from the floor in 32 minutes is nowhere near good enough. Hood & Clarkson played 12 minutes combined and had about as much impact as JR did in Game 2 in way less shots and you'd have to feel that if either one of them had time to get in a rhythm, they'd out perform JR atm. I love JR, don't get me wrong but what he's coming up with right now is nowhere near good enough in the Finals.

[@mattcrawford4011]

CycleCruza Hood is very disengaged. J.R can break out at any point. I think Korver could start over him, but having Korver and Love out there at the same time would not be good defensively

[@wozhendeaa]

Did you see s reporter asked him during playoff: why is hood still in the rotation

[@FreewayBrent]

I'm a Warriors fan. With that being said, LeBron has to do something otherworldly *every* single night for the Cavs to have a chance to beat the Warriors in this series, so any criticism of the guy is completely unfair. He's been having what is arguably the greatest run by any player in NBA playoff history during these 2018 Playoffs, and single-handedly almost beat the Warriors in Game 1. Just appreciate his greatness for what it is.

[@OmarScruggs]

Example: "In todays news Lebron James was on an airplane where the pilots fainted and an engine blew out. Lebron took over the planen fixed the engine, and landed the plane safely" Skip, your thoughts on Lebron "So the greatest player of all time landed an plane that was about to crash and it took him 20 minutes....really, 20 mins. If hes so great he would have landed it in 15 mins or just put everyone on his back and flap his arms and fly them to the ground unharmed"

It’s sad to see ppl use such little of their brains when talking abt LeBron

[@GhostPlaysGames]

It doesn't matter what Lebron does....if he takes over a game and scores 50pts with 10+ assist but the team loses, people gonna say he didn't get the team involved enough. If he scores 29 pts with 10+ assist, people gonna say he didn't takeover the game. That guy is gonna be the bad guy no matter what he does. Regardless of the fact that LBJ boasts about being the greatest player or goes and chases rings with D Wade and Bosh, you can't argue that him making it to the Finals this year is a great feat. Facing this Warriors team is clearly lopsided. No player in history given this squad in Cleveland would do better against this Golden State team.

[@moneyway8178]

Bearded Ghost it's not hard to get 10 assist when your ball dominate

[@acetheace8418]

Bearded Ghost thank you did you hear Chris b? 3-19 on open looked I hope I hear that wrong if not bron just needs consistency if each player can just get 8-10 points if you are open you gotta make it what do they pay your for? This is your profession some of them are veterans smh

[@TheMplsboy]

Your right except your forgetting Kobe woulda did the impossible and won game 1 or 2.

[@acetheace8418]

money way yea do you want jr handling the ball? Would you want klay or curry handling the ball? Just cause he is ball dominat does not take away from his assist compare his assists to Westbrook who had more help. If bron had pg, Adams who are more consistent this series might be different but he doesn’t so just look at how far Russ got and how far lbj had. Losing to the Jazz 4-1? Come on even if the West is harder bron is still beating the jazz in 6

Never in my life, have I ever seen that whenever a team loses, the topic of discussion is never why the "team" lost, but why one player caused a loss. I swear man, whenever the Cavs lose, the first person everyone tries to blame is Bron. It's honestly sad man, he's a human being.

[@keeknation4674]

LEBRON COULD SCORE 100 POINTS 10 REBOUNDS 15 AST 10 BLK 10 STLS AND SKIP WOULD MANAGE TO FIND A WAY TO BELITTLE AND TELL YOU HOW JORDAN COULD DO THE SAME BUT 1000x BETTER COME ON MAN

[@dadarkknight36310]

KEEK NATION I agree but at the same time it can be said his whole starting line up could score double digits and they will say he needs help when they lose. Even though love and George did good he still needs help. Dude had the big three in Miami he needs help, he had Kyrie for three years and he still needs help, damn when does this dude not need help. Damn he can have an all star team and they will say he needs help. That’s the thing with a Jordan he only had Pippen for a while before he got Rodman and he never complained. The other players were role players who Jordan coached up at practice cussing them out, fighting them and everything. Bron had the big three and Kyrie and yet he complains. Not hating dude because he was a Heat and being a heat fan I will always be a fan but damn quit making excuses.

[@Sykesjr24]

dadarkknight36310 can you tell me one time lebron said he needs more help just please tell me

[@moneyway8178]

dadarkknight36310 thank you

[@gndo9145]

A few years ago he said "we need more playmakers, " that's when they got Korver, and that's the only time he has openly complained about needing help. Analyst and the media on TV say it all the time. but dark, the man is the only player to score 50 and not win in an nba finals, he does need help. In Jordan's era the talent was more spread out among the teams, Jordan and Pippen were enough with GOOD role players around them. In this finals GSW third best player is Klay avg 22 pts and then Livingston at 10, CAVs third is George Hill at 11 then next is JR at 7.5. MAN NEEDS SOME HELP. It is almost impossible/unreal for anyone to be expected one man to cover KD and Steph's points on their own. With KLove covering Klay's points.

[@Frostshokula]

It’s funny cuz MJ leads Lebron in every advanced metric, but Bronsexuals still call Lebron the GOAT

King Tip JR is the scapegoat for game 1. That missed free throw was the problem. The game was tied up because your so-called King wasn't in the paint for a possible put-back. They lost in overtime because your so-called King was a no-show in overtime. How much did he score in overtime?

People should really quit comparing LBJ with MJ. They are both great players. But MJ didnt face the Golden State Warriors in his era. No disrespect to the teams he defeated. And so does LBJ, he didnt face the opponents the same team that MJ faced in his time. Not the same team and opponents..so why keep on comparing the two greats. I just dont get it.

[@IsWhatItIs32]

Fernando Toledo Truth Spoken

[@keenonmorgan8558]

Cause people stupid...

[@ricardolozano6265]

Fernando Toledo Jordan would have averaged 40 points a game versus golden state the current era is soft

[@afridi0729]

I can care less if people compare them. The thing is LeBron has passed Jordan in many stats. The reason why people compare them is because LeBron is still playing and will break just about every stat. Like for example Jordan had 35000 points in his career. By the time LeBron retires he will have more like around 40000 and be the highest scorer of all time even passing Kareem. I know stats aren't everything but people still look at them at the end of the day. Also. when Jordan retired in 2002, LeBron started the next year so it's a good way to compare the Jordan era and current basketball. Just my opinion though.

[@AliMuhammad-gs4sb]

Fernando Toledo you are 100 percent correct..

[@matthewrichardson8162]

Remember when the Cavs played the Magic in the ECF? They had to double Dwight Howard and when he was doubled, the Magic found the open man on the wing. This plan is what the Cavs are doing now but unlike Lebron's 2018 Cavs, Dwight's Magic had players like Reddick, Rashad Lewis, Turkoglu and Jamier Nelson who could actually hit there parameter shots.

[@jtremaine23]

Matthew Richardson I guess the question is why did they double Howard? He never had a post game---was all dunks and blocked a few shots. If he couldn't develop a post game with 2 of the greatest post players in NBA history (McHale & Olajuwon), there was no hope for him.

[@maxgames676]

jtremaine23 Because Dwhite Could And Still Give You A Double Double 20 And 20 or 20 and 10 facts

[@jonl5905]

Lebron played with half the league now because he doesn’t win and still doesn’t win.

[@jtremaine23]

AMac/ Rain So could all of the past great centers and even the power forwards. But let's be honest, if he played during the 90's, he would be behind Olajuwon, Shaq, Robinson, Ewing, Mourning, maybe even Mutombo, etc. He could forget making the all star team or winning DPOY. Think about it!

[@jtremaine23]

Show Genius Let me get this straight. He had a post game in Orlando but it just disappeared in LA, Houston & his more recent teams? That doesn't make sense. Olajuwon at the age of 55 has a better post game.

[@knowledgeseeker1528]

[@charlescheddar4537]

Ricky Rubio better known as westbrick daddy. There are a million variables. Even the Mavs and old Spurs team were better than about 3 of the teams MJ played in the FInals. Miami was just all-stars being put on a team, MJ had a coach, system, and all-time greats that were together in a system for years. Lebron has #1-5 greatest Finals opponents between MJ and Lebron. MJ always had a better team than Lebron as well.

[@elijahanthony3674]

Charles Cheddar stop it. The Heat were the favorites to win both of those years and they were outplayed. Lebron choked in 2011. Stop making excuses

[@charlescheddar4537]

Elijah Anthony. Not making excuses, Lebron choked. But MJ has a better team than Lebron (system with elite coach>>>maching together all-stars) and faced much easier Finals opponents. MJ would be 3-6 like Lebron will be. MJ would beat the Mavs but lose to the 2016 Warriors.

[@MIDNightPT4]

[@iortizjunior]

MIDNightPT4 thank you!!!!

[@swen766]

MIDNightPT4 you know why because Jordan would put up 35pts in a half. History has already shown us that story. Oh and btw Jordan the 9 time all defensive player would also play defense on the other end. Shocker

[@KoreanGingseng]

Todd Kennedy you honestly think Jordan would stop Steph from throwing the ball up? Lmfao. The only one stopping that man is himself

[@swen766]

KoreanGingseng do you realize how many all time greats Jordan dominated and shut down? Apparently you haven't watched much basketball if you are comparing Jordan an all time great to Steph Curry. Amazing. Get in the film room. Not taking away how great of a shooter Curry is but you have no idea how tenacious and tremendous MJ defense was. Trust me Curry would have a much harder time shooting. That's a fact. Not saying he won't make shots but I promise you he will not make as many.

I dont think kobe is jealous of lebron, kobe is 5-2 in finals, lebron is 3-6. Kobe just disagrees with the notion that lebron is a better overall player than him, which lebron is. Different games and mindsets thoughs

[@11223344552668]

in 1987 finals both lakers and Celtics had 3 players averaging over 20 points per game

[@jeremiahjones2460]

That hate in skipp heart is real it ain’t even on no sports stuff with lebron idk if it’s cause lebron got tattoos and mj wasn’t like that I really be trying to figure it out ?

[@domg118]

You could say the same for Shannon on how much he blows LeBron.

[@Justdale15]

Jeremiah jones it's confusing

[@Justdale15]

Dom G Shannon on another level but it's funny

[@adamvalenzuela4409]

Jeremiah Jones because He doesnt wanna see his hero surpassed and will say and do anything to keep people believing that way, even if it means dedicating his sports analysis career to being a pure hater, old generations dont like admitting when someone or something is better than it was in their time. It is like when you hear old people saying oh well in my time we did it like this or thats how it was done or we wouldnt have done things that way... etc etc

[@ReALiTeeChEkk]

Synthetic A priori, Skip Bayless was in his 40's when Jordan was winning championships. He was already a part of an older generation at that time. So the "older generation favoring players from their time" theory doesnt really apply to Skip when it comes to Jordan.

[@KingMickD]

Cavs need a definitive 2nd option.

Wait whos there first? Lebron doesn't play D

C'mon skip

[@blakpope3815]

He scored 51 points and they still lost game 1 by 10pts. KD in 2 games have scored a total of 53 points 9 assist and 11 rebounds, Steph Curry scored a total of 62pts 14 assist and 10 rebound, Klay Thompson 46pts 7 assist and 6 rebound, Lebron James 80pts 20 assist and 17 rebound but is still down 2 and both games were on the road. Haters just stop it , Bron is by far the better player in this series by a large margin. Steph and KD just have a great team and everyone chipping in.

[@jmainejosiah9268]

[@highsguffb7736]

But they were all stars tho?

[@suntansuperman26]

TONEakaSHOW And LeBron never won without Wade, Bosh, Allen, Kyrie or Love. At least Jordan got 6, LeBron had twice the all stars and half the rings. So I don't know what you are trying to prove.

[@CycleCruza]

Cavs played much better defense in Game 1 than Game 2.

[@CalobAdamsInfamous913]

I’d give him a B, turnovers and didn’t takeover enough. With the team he has he can’t let up or get complacent. If he drops 40 consistently, all he needs is love to get 20-25 with 10-15 rebounds. And he needs good contributions outta Korver, TT, Clarkson, Nance and Jr to win.

I think for Lebron, he gets tired more these days for two reasons.. one he's getting older, two, he carry's a lot of muscle.. it's hard to do that every other day of the week.

I am suprised Skip hasnt mentioned when Michael Jordan held Byron Scott scoreless for 2 1/2 games. During the NBA playoff finals!!!

Bmore24 t someone watched Gary Payton on First Take

[@seadelirious9838]

Neekimu Jardim It’s actually just very common knowledge that switching isn’t the best thing to do and if you can stay on your man at all times you should

[@fuckslattyy]

Screen make that very hard & screens make it easy for them to get open for shots, switches if done right are most efficient

[@user-yp9yo6sl2x]

They say cuz its easier to switch than fight over, but IMO I only think it's easier for the offence cuz u give them exactly what they want so yea I'm with u bro

[@keepitcoming9240]

Well you could try and stay on your man but with guys like Steph and kd and klay to some extent (whenever he handles the ball) it's hard because they can pull up and are great shooters, fighting through gives these guys the ability to either get a step or shoot right above you. Also with how the NBA is now a person getting screened isn't Gona he allowed to fight too hard because of how soft it is now

[@kdogg257]

It's scary that we criticize LeBron for his teammates missing wide open shots. Cavs went 3/19 on open looks. I don't know how many were off Bron's passes, but at least 5 of them were. If Cavs make their open shots this is a far different game. Bron scores 51 in game 1 and they lose. He gets his teammates involved in game 2 with 13 assists and it should've been more but they're missing open shots. I just don't know what more he can do. Obviously he could've played better in OT in game 1, but after scoring 49, then having your guy at the FT line to win, Bron did all he could do. Had terrible calls in game 1, with the missed free throw and JR. There isn't much more LeBron can do to even pull a win out let a lone the series if his teammates won't help him.

[@artsXart]

So let me get this right, Lebron had 29 of 103 points and he had no help?! Looks like he had 74 points worth of help with 3 other players in double digits. Kevin Love had 22 points and 10 rebounds - he’s no help though right?

[@oliver-ts4so]

[@goudjomichel]

To think that JR thought he was better than Wade. Delusional!! The players on the bench can easily make a difference if they believe in them. It doesn't matter how good Bron is, this is a 5 players game.

[@tashrif46]

The Warriors held serve on their floor. Thats all they did. This series is not over yet

[@marquishodges4591]

Thats what cleveland gets when lebron gotten to be the GM. That trade was stupid. When they had wade, rose, crowder, jefferson, shumpert, and frye .He would've probbably have an A. Because people forget when cleveland was winning in the beginning of the season. They bench was producing. Who led that bench, wade. So no excuse for help. Because he had plenty of help , they really thought clarkson,hood,nance jr, and hill would be better. Thats funny. What they should've done is get rid of JR and Isaiah. But instead U got shaqtin a fool moments with JR in the finals. Good writtens. Thats what they get.

[@oldschoollo8832]

Are writtens like mittens?? 😂😂😂😂

[@Sykesjr24]

Marquis Hodges can you tell me where are all them players u just named and can you tell me when did lebron say he needs more help

[@marquishodges4591]

Percy. Lebron doesn't have to say it when he's layin down on the floor when he was awarded the eastern conference championship. Who do that besides lebron insulting his teammates. And derrick rose and jay crowder average over 12 against the rockets, which were the chosen one's to win it all. And wade average over 15 off the bench against the 76ers. Now tell me how much did clarkson,hill,nance jr, and hood average any of the 2018 playoffs. Im waiting.

[@isaac4580]

You’re really blaming these trades on Lebron? You really think Lebron wanted to trade Wade? Everyone knows cleveland was having locker room issues, and most of it started with Jr and Thompson and Thomas. No team would take Jr or TT, so they were forced to give up the other players. I still think the Wade trade was stupid, but you’re a bigger idiot for blaming Lebron. I mean it’s just the dumbest thing you can say. Despite what you want to believe, Lebron isn’t responsible for personnel or lineup choices.

[@dentonkellyjr8095]

Lebron didnt make those trades though......

Lebron had help last night and didn’t take the game over I give him a C

[@matejmatkovic7712]

He kinda had help because everyone else got open looks. Every time he got by his defender they just swarmed him and left shooters wide open. And its almost impossible to win when steph shoots like that. In the 2nd half he made ridiculous shots.

[@dbibbs8721]

Malik Williams help is being efficient u can't look at the stats if you watched the game it ain't hard to tell

[@silentgrind34]

3-19 is help??? What

[@swen766]

Malik Williams I completely agree. All these excuses saying LeBron didn't get help. He had 3 other players in double figures not including himself. He had plenty of help. I got suggestion how about Cav players play some defense especially Lebron instead of worrying about getting a bunch of help on offense. And before all you LeBron fans say Golden State has too much on offense to stop. Well of course Curry, Durant, and Thompson will get theirs points but how about not letting McGee get double digits in points (Yes McGee lol), , Livingston 11 or other players contribute to make an impact on game. I think that might help don't you think?. In fact to D these other players up and limit their scoring guess what the Cavs have a real chance to win the game despite JR playing bad. The one player everyone who wants to place blame for Lebron. Excuses excuses

[@silentgrind34]

[@ksteve4042]

Bron the 🐐.

[@notcoolkev3770]

Lebron will become the all time leader in turnovers before he retires.. he’s already ranked number 6 all time and he’s number 1 amongst active players. Jordan’s not in the top 25 btw.

[@feroce82]

Johnny Blaze Jordan was more a scorer than a passer, only the latter can miss a pass.

[@elijahdiallo8493]

Johnny Blaze he didn’t play point his whole career

[@notcoolkev3770]

samuel morrison well why does Karl Malone have the most turnovers then? He’s not a passer. Lebron has more turnovers than magic Johnson right now

[@BPlusMusicChannel]

That's a lazy stat bro...that's the type of spin a politician uses. Doesn't tell the story. Here's some perspective... Jordan's assist-to-turnover ratio is 0.85 meaning for his career he AVERAGED more turnovers than assists. Lebron's is 2.10 meaning for every turnover he has he's getting 2 assists. Michael had 2,500 assists and almost 3,000 TOs. LBJ has over 8,000 assists and under 4,000 turnovers. CORRECTION: Michael had 5,000 assists and almost 2,500 TOs making his Ast/TO around 1.93ish which isn't bad. My point remains...MJ is no better at take care of the ball that LBJ and vice versa.

[@anakinskywalker4496]

LeBron has played the most minutes of any player. Has the ball on every possession. Smh u don't know anything about Basketball except that u a LeBron Hater

[@garneroutlaw1]

I give him a D+. Rest of the team gets an F. Warriors have been playing very average ball. I think Warriors will blowout Cavs at home game 3 by 25. They will bring their A game to close out the series. As a Lakers fan, that game 1 was painful to watch.

[@supabaku9078]

Empty stats? Sure... cuz that makes sense... take LBJ off the court and Cavs get blown out by 60-70 points every game.
