Steve we look at LeBron -- passing up the last shined in. You played with Jordan and some of the biggest shots in Bulls history were hit by other guys than Michael but. His philosophy what was it when the game was on the line is it similar or different how different it is to LeBron. I think it's totally different from -- I think LeBron illustrious. Assists you know where he's he's really thinking past first. -- you know he's he's a distributor before you can score. Which is amazing -- because the averages 129 a game. But that just shows his ability but Michael always commendable on his hands at the end and then it was a different mindset -- that you -- -- -- You know only is -- a last option in Dallas. That deal that was his approach in any -- would make it past you know if you got double team and he did that time and again. But but. But the first option was always to score. What it -- I know that you hit the big shot and Paxson hit a big shot at winning two and hit a big shot Michael was never. So afraid to take the shot was you mean you never saw him go you know what -- you take -- -- are. You know I really don't know I don't know -- with the exact opposite he couldn't he couldn't wait to take it. And then and that's you know that's. Something Kobe has obviously admitted -- -- certain guys just. Desperately want that big shot and are and are so good that they can created on their own to draw the attention and that's you know that's Kobe you know that's Michael. I think LeBron. It is just just furious. He can do it but he's not as skilled as those guys as a shooter than a score in the half court. And then so I think in the -- there's just not quite the level of confidence. It in his own ability to make -- shot and in decreed it. It could be you know a lot of his points come in transition or you know just didn't in the course of the game and did in normal situations but everything changes at the end and that's where you were those guys really rely on on footwork can pin. You know technique and that's probably the one area of -- broad scheme that they didn't you know at an elite level. Yeah and I it took me a long time that I guess get to that point Steve did. LeBron just not confident in his jumper he's a scorer not a shooter where is Michael was a great he's turned it turned out to be a great shooter yeah. But he but he worked on it LeBron really needs to add that -- Dwyane Wade can shoot. He's got a good jump shot the LeBron just seems like I don't want to come down to my jumper if I can take it to the hoop that's one thing and I think that's where it's a little bit reticent. With you know that the game on the line in the clock winding down. Yeah I agree that he doesn't he doesn't quite trust his jumper and the post game has gotten better but it's nothing like what Michaels was -- like. -- Kobe -- you know you -- on the block with Michael -- you know they're gonna get a shot off look like it -- LeBron peace you get better but you don't really know what -- -- issue speaking I guess he kind of wants to get into the lane for a little right handed jump hook but it's not like he's got to go to move down there and and I think that's what keeps them you know from. Taking the last shot is just -- you know other than the deep level of confidence in. You know a particular move or his jump shot it's just that's that's the only thing lacking right now --
