Jay Williams Gets Roasted For His Controversial Tweet Blasting LeBron For Not Shooting Over 3 Players (TWEETS)

LeBron James is being criticized by some for passing to Danny Green for a shot at the end of Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

The Los Angeles Lakers had the ball with 16.8 seconds left down 109-108 against the Miami Heat when James drove to the basket drawing 3 defenders as he threw it back out to a wide open Danny Green.

He ended up missing, and Markieff Morris followed with a terrible pass out of bounds.

ESPN analyst Jay Williams, a former NBA point guard, criticized James for passing and not shooting it over multiple defenders.

Yes Danny Green was open but I don’t care what no one says… Bron needed to shoot that shot. PERIOD.

Steve Kerr. Paxson. Great play but a bad low bounce pass. Green was not set up properly. https://t.co/NzgFX8TodX

After the 111-108 loss, James defended his decision to pass.

“I was able to draw two defenders below the free throw line and find one of our shooters at the top of the key wide open to win a championship. I trusted him. We trusted him. And it just didn’t go. You live with that,” James said after the game.

“It’s one of the best shots we could have gotten. Especially down the stretch. Two guys on me. Danny got a heck of a look. It just didn’t go down. I know he wishes he could have it again. I wish I could make a better pass. You live with it.”
