James passes on last shot again, Heat lose

SALT LAKE CITY -- The reality of the world LeBron James lives in was almost suffocating him, his voice quieted to a near whisper.

 "I can't win," James mumbled. "I can't win for losing."

 Sitting to his left in the locker room were two teammates who had let the Miami Heat down in a one-point loss to the Utah Jazz. Dwyane Wade had committed two fouls that just crushed the Heat's bid to win their 10th straight game and missed a free throw with 14 seconds left that was a direct reason the Jazz won. Udonis Haslem missed an open 16-foot jump shot at the buzzer. It was offline out of his hands, even though it was in the heart of his offensive comfort zone.

Shacks' Take: Lebron, take the damn shot already.  Until the day you want the ball in your hand and take the final shot, these questions will persist.  Just shoot.  You'll never know what you're capable of doing until you try and a March game against Utah is the perfect time to practice.  You're the greatest basketball talent ever with a two-bit psyche.  The only way to get over your fears, just shoot.
