Will Improving Post Game Help Lebron James in the Fourth Quarter?



The Associated Press reported over the summer that Lebron James was working out with hall of fame center Hakeem "the dream" Olajuwan to improve his post game. Olajuwan was known for his famous move "the dream shake."
I hope Olajuwan can teach James how to get rid of his poor fourth quarter play. James had a total of just 18 points in six 4th quarters in the finals against the Dallas Mavericks. That is an average of three points per fourth quarter. Maybe learning "The Dream Shake" can help him shake off the fourth quarter jitters.
I was listening to the radio one day after the finals and heard one rumor that Lebron James was depressed over his girlfriend having an affair with another NBA player. Lebron James is a superstar and is noted as a top five NBA player. There is no reason or excuse to being almost absent in clutch situations. I don't care if his favorite fish died of a lung collapse(fish don't have lungs). He has to back up his multiple championship promise or that big three signing will be a the biggest bust in NBA history, with no offense to Kwame Brown.
I personally would not like to see another great player like Lebron James not win a championship. The world doesn't need another Charles Barkley. Coincidence or not, but the year Olajuwan worked with Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant's post game, the Lakers won a repeat championship in 2009.
