Nope, because they weren't epic, because they weren't magnitude games, because these are in the finals. I'm going to the finals. So it took Ray Allen making the greatest clutch shot I have ever witnessed, because remember, it's a LeBrick and it's a long rebound out. And it's Chris Bosh goes out and tracks it down and kicks it in the corner.
It's insane. I know you watch this. How about the Western Conference Finals just two years ago against Denver, okay? So the Lakers wind up getting swept, but four straight times, they go to the fourth quarter right there. It's a winnable game for LeBron and company. First two are in Denver, second two at home. If you combine his shooting stats for the four fourth quarters, he's seven of 23.

That's horrible. That's how you lose games. And he was one of 10 from three in those four combined fourth quarters. And in the closeout game at, as I call it, the crypt here in Los Angeles, in the final seconds of the game, LeBron gets two shots to tie the game, two two-point shots, and neither of them, he gets up to the rim. And I'm like, what are you doing, man? You're better than that.

And yet the blind witnesses say, oh, we didn't see that. We don't want to hear about that. So we fast forward one more year because last year in the playoffs, they get Denver again, but this time it's in the first round. And games one and two at Denver, LeBron pouts in the fourth quarter because he can be a mentally weak diva. He won't shoot in the fourth quarter of a winnable game.

I'm going, what are you doing, man? Just take over. You can do this. You can rise above Joker and Jamal because you think he's the goat. The goat rises above because the game is begging to be won by LeBron James. And he won't shoot until there are three minutes left and the game's out of control. Game two. He's got Jamal on him. He makes a sweet move.

It's Jordan-esque on Brian Russell in game six at Utah. And we've got LeBron James. This is game two just last year in the playoffs at Denver. It's gonna change the series. He gets a wide open shot from three. It's like a free throw from three. and he le bricks it. And I'm like, what are you doing, man? Because Kobe's gonna make that shot. Jordan's obviously gonna make that shot.
