"Player of the Week"? Are you kidding me?

Do we honestly need such ridiculous, minute details like "Player of the Week"? How many players have won this award? Hundreds, probably thousands at this point. I'm sure that many players have won a number of "Player of the Week" awards that DWARF this number, but so what if no one else is keeping a record of it besides a very dedicated fan or something? Also they are not cited yet anyhow.--Hoopsknowledge 00:48, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Arbitary Cutoffs and Arcane Awards

If you want to keep such things, then include them for every other player as well. It's called consistency. Otherwise, you're giving player A an incorrect appearance of having more achievements that player B. Not very hard to understand. Meanwhile, there is nothing more arbitrary than point cutoffs of 27 and 31 points. Find a source for 30 points, and X and Y, or else it doesn't deserve to be included, because clearly 31 and 27 were chosen for a reason, many other players have just missed the mark and yet excel farther in other fields.--TyrusThomas4lyf 12:12, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Read WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. Not very hard to understand. All "arbitrary cutoffs" were sourced from a reliable publisher: espn, the nba, etc. Just because something does or does not exist in another article, does not mean it can or cannot exist in another. Consensus has been met on this issue already, you've been warned plenty of times already about reverting and starting edit wars. From now on, I'm going to issue official wiki warnings, which if you avoid, or continue to avoid, will lead to your account being suspended/blocked. I've allowed you to completely dismiss stats from the DWade article, because they were not well sourced. These on the other hand are, and I will not allow you to exibit this type of behavior anymore.

Olympics

If you guys are going to include small things like Espys, there should be a section for Lebron's international career. There are many, many records and statistics you could include. Most US medals and gold medals, first triple double, most assists by a US player, and according to the (unsourced) newest edit to the main page, he's even the top US scorer in history. I don't understand why he doesn't have a section for his international play, he's certainly accomplished a lot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.76.49.180 (talk) 21:24, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

I think that a lot of the stats are incorrect.

It says that he scores different amount of points. Look under Cleveland Cavaliers records. The points totals are wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.120.109.190 (talk) 06:48, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Feel free to be bold and fix it.—Bagumba (talk) 10:33, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Career gamewinning shots charts

The chart is incorrect, many sources point towards James having over 20 gamewinning shots. James has 5 gamewinners in the playoffs alone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.117.6.202 (talk) 21:38, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

You would need to look at the source and if it counts as a realiable source. For example, sources from ESPN.com and NBA.com are realiable in articles about sports. Robert4565 (talk) 03:14, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Against Atlanta Hawks LeBron James has scored a three-pointer when they were losing 111-109. Then, with the game 112-111 in favor to Cleveland, LeBron scored a bank-shot with 12.8 seconds remaining. Later on, the Hawks gained possession again and missed their last attempt. So, WHY NOT considering that as a game-winning shot? --Marceltp86 (talk) 03:34, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

I removed the free-throw game-winner because it was made with 36.4 secs remaining, thus missing the 24-second cutoff point.--Marceltp86 (talk) 01:54, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Question about content

What is the content in the Regular season (Scoring section) supposed to be? Is it listing his highest number of points per each individual quarter and why are there two third quarter listings? Robert4565 (talk) 03:11, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Only player in NBA history to average at least 27 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists for their career

Do we really need this as a highlight? It looks like it was forced just to have a career highlight that only Lebron has. Like I can make one for Jordan saying only player with 30-5-5 (which I feel is more appropriate since it's zeroes and five). I can also make for Oscar Robertson with 25-7-7. I don't see those stats on Jordan's and Robertson's pages. What do you think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tbb 911 (talk • contribs) 15:12, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
