    Congrats to LBJ for proving me wrong ... if Boston shot just 25-30% from 3 tonight they win

    LBJ is a great player no question

    But please give me a good argument of how you can call him the GOAT with a losing record in the Finals? He was 2-2 with Miami. He’s going to be 1-3 in his 2nd run with Cleveland.

    If you are the best player ever, you shouldn’t be 3-6 (after this year) in the Finals

    Have you seen the shit rosters he has had in Cleveland? 07 was possibly the worst team to ever make the Finals only to be surpassed by the 18 Cavs.

    lmfao

    Seriously FUCK OFF

    LBJ is a tremendous player and I consistently say as much ... I personally don’t think he’s the GOAT but that’s my opinion and so be it ... I also don’t particularly like him but I can appreciate his skills all the same

    His team is dog shit ... you can put your head in the sand and say that isn’t his fault but he’s going to get run in the Finals this year just like he did his last year in Miami with teams that look very similar

    The reality is that Boston pissed this game away tonight ... it was an epically shitty shooting game for them ... congrats to the Cavs for keeping the game tight and Boston’s youth finally showing up at home

    Anyway, continue slobbering all over LBJ’s junk

    With teq's braindead logic it would have been better for Bron's legacy to lose this game and not even make the finals. Because conference finals don't count. Or something.

    Getting back on topic, although I do love laughing at retards as much as the next chap:

    Is getting this team to the finals the greatest accomplishment of his career?

    I'd probably say yes. This team wins 20 games without LeBron.

    Christ.

    FUCK OFF with this shit

    They barely survived in Round 1 against a flawed team with a mediocre coach who couldn’t make basic adjustments

    They won Round 2 against a team that LBJ has made his personal bitch for years

    They won Round 3 against an up and coming team missing their 2 best players, the next best player being more of a supporting role, and 2 future stars that are 20 and 21 respectively.

    And in 2 of those series they needed 7 to get the job done.

    Swallow LBJ’s balls while you are at it if you really think that a player that all of you LBJ cum guzzlers think is the GOAT somehow just ran through the greatest performance of all time just to get to a Final by beating 2 flawed teams and a team that tries really hard but is a year away

    Keep digging that grave
    Yep ... I clearly need to be more complementary than calling him a great player

    You're the one arguing that taking this team to the finals is Lebron's greatest accomplishment. Nevermind his actual championships. Please do go on.

    It’s hard to be logical when you have LBJ’s junk lodged deep down your throat

    Fucking pumptastic take. Actually, even pumpy would tell you you're a fucking idiot if you think dragging a team through a shitty East is better than actually winning a finals against OkC, the spurs, or GsW. When the fuck did you start watching the NBA?

    holy AIDS

    no i don't think getting to the finals this year is his best accomplishment, nothing will beat coming back down 3-1 on the road to beat the 73 win warriors. how there were still any doubters or "haters" (see above) after that performance is fascinating to me

    i do think it's more impressive than the angry furries above this post do, though. this team is absolute garbage, bottom-of-the-east drivel without him. it's impressive as fuck
  • BaldwinIVBaldwinIV Member Posts: 797
    in the annals of history beating the 73 win warriors will be more impressive, yes. individually though, what he's doing now in year 15 is imo more impressive and difficult. if that makes sense.

    and bot i never said appearances are better than championships. just that 6-0 in a vacuum disregards all the times MJ flopped out in the 1st and 2nd rounds. looking at only the w-l finals records is incredibly simplistic and disregards like 300 other factors. out of respect for gladdy i'll bow out and stop repeating the same shit. teq is too unintelligent to respond to, and to think his hilariousness on the TSIO podcast is what brought me here. can't believe it.

    I didn't make comparisons to anyone else. Just that it's fugaz to say dragging a shit team through a shit conference is a greater accomplishment than actually winning a finals against some amazing teams.

    You want to praise the accomplishment? Sure, go ahead I guess. I still think the East looked like luke warm dog shit once Boston was struck by injury. There's no way even if you think the East is better than dog shit that it's his greatest accomplishment though.
