Default Re: Article ripping Kobe and Praising Lebron

[ QUOTE ]
I think Taraz means how Lebron mailed in games throughout the course of the season.

Simmons said something recently about Lebron mailing in games, saying that "superstars" shouldn't mail in games. That Lebron has a fifth gear, but superstars should never use gears 1-4. But everyone does it from time to time.

Simmons himself has mentioned that Larry Bird would get bored during a road trip and decide to only shoot left handed for a half. Isn't that mailing it in? I'm sure there were games where even Jordan had only 15 points and didn't try hard. It happens. 82 games is a long time.
