He is good and skilled but he is still not a complete basketball player in the mind
His Mental Flaws:
-not clutch, commits poor decisions
-misses critical free throws
-plays "too cool" and not really his natural game
-defers to teammates in crucial times
-takes too many jumpers
comparisons: MJ, D-Wade

Lebron James is a great player, the only thing he doesn't do is hit lots of game winning shots yet, he did in last years playoffs against the Wizards. Lebron is immensely talented.

I live in Cleveland an go to quite a few Cav's games and he is good, but he couldn't do it without the team. I was at 2 games where he didn't play and I couldn't tell the difference. At 1 I didn't even realize he wasn't playing until the last quarter. He is fun to watch because he has a lot of energy on the court, but I kind of think he's over rated.

Well everyone acts like he's Michael Jordan, but when you actually watch him play you're dissapointed because he didn't do that dunk everyone said he'd do or didn't make the game winning shot. He's good, I'll give him that, but there are still some areas he can improve. Like his free throw shooting, his game winning shots,ect. Other than that he has nothing to work on. One day he will be on the list of "50 Greatest Players Ever" but only if he can get it done every season.

Honestly, no. He's tremendously athletic-probably the most in his league, but him being compared to MJ is in my opinion overstating him. MJ revolutionized the game, which Lebron has not done yet. Yet, both fail to exemplify a true team player, or someone who makes the people around them better. They are both ballhogs-extremely good ones.

Yes he is. He's a stat stuffer, doing whatever it takes to win. He works on all aspects of the game, defense, rebounding, passing, scoring... he does whatever it takes to win.
He could still get better (scary thought), but he's very good already. And he has the work ethic to continue to improve.

Not yet, but he diffinately has the potential. Too many turn-overs and makes way too many bad decisions. But he is still very young and has alot of time to get a handle on those aspects of the game.

Without a doubt, he is as good as has been advertised. He just needs a better supporting cast to carry this team deep into the playoffs and to a title someday.
