So many member berry MJ doogisms in one post, it's like an ML algorithm wrote it lol- Old man post about softest era of all time is now - Draymond suspension saved Bron lmaooo (so much that in game 6 when Draymond returned James put up pedestrian numbers of 41 pts - 11 boards - 8 assists - 4 steals - 3 blocks - 0 TOs). - Bulls would have rolled GSW in 5 roflllllll- LBJ joined the 8th-seeded Miami Heat superteam! An 8th seed in the east. The east that you admonish as 'absolute trash', are you starting to feel your argument collapse all around you? - "Couldn't win without two HOF talents" - "Jordan would have won 8 straight!!! "So Jordan gets praised for quitting, not slighted. Amazing. And we don't deal in hypotheticals.- "Much more competitive era when you could play physical defense"With advanced metrics slaughtering every argument, we turn to angsty boomer supposition. I would respect you a lot more if you just admitted you hate him for his stupid political takes, you are nostalgic for the 90s and MJ (who isn't?), and because he choked in 2011, nearly ten years ago. Trying to unironically argue what you're trying to argue is pretty cringe. Then stomping your feet on the ground and crying out to the heavens about how Bron defenders are similar to Puppy's SEC rant....again this is parody.
Ah yes, thanks for the reminder about beating an injured team. Google Trends has NBA Finals injuries at a 50% higher clip this year (compared to 2015, and 65% more than 2019) for news/media articles. Wonder why? Especially with ratings down? Hmm.Remember kids, the 2015 finals won't be remembered for this:Or the 2007 finals when he dragged a sack of blueberry scones and YMCA players to the NBA Finals. The narrative is 'LoL He iS 3-6 In ThE FiNalS' when doing what he did in years like that should be points of praise, not slander. It's mind-boggingly stupid.Hmmm. What else am I forgettingAh yes the angry political growling and sky screeching angle. Bron's China comments were enormously disappointing (I lived in Hong Kong for years and consider it formerly one of the world's finest cities, Bron's comments were ignorant at best and frightfully damaging at worst), but I'm not going to hold his mostly stupid political takes against him when purely judging his basketball legacy. @Doogles come home bud It’s not a narrative. LeBron is literally 3-6 in Finals. This is like when niner fans say Montana is greater than Brady because he's 4-0 in the Superbowl while ignoring the years he never made it there.Jordan is 6-0 in the finals only because he wasn't good enough to get past the Pistons or Orlando magic. So....in others words, LeBron lost 6 finals. And Jordan didn’t lose any. Got it. Jordan lost 9 Finals, the years he couldn't even make it.I hate Lebron's wannabe important like Muhammad Ali while sucking off China schtick, but if he goes back to back in LA he'll be making the Jordan GOAT talk barely a whisper.Three franchises, both conferences, across different eras, including scalping the greatest team of all-time from a 3-1 deficit.Dallas is the only blemish, but he's doing his best to erase it. Curious to see when his body gives out.

For size and skill together it is hard to beat Kareem. 6 rings, 10 finals too
For size and skill together it is hard to beat Kareem. 6 rings, 10 finals too And all-time scorer. He has good arguments. I think him being an asshole has probably made him somewhat forgotten, and people also hold the size advantage against bigs.
I'm not sure MJ thinks it would have been 8 straight after watching his docHe needed to goAnd he was BACK for the second year when they lost to the Magic so he didn't even win 6 straight. He won three straight twice. Not exactly against the murderer's row eitherThey are both GREAT.
Btw, what had Anthony Davis won before this year? He’s really good and in his prime, but had he even won a round in the playoffs before this year? I’m not going to look it up, but I don’t remember him doing so. This is the first time LeBron has had a legitimate top 5 teammate. Wade was good, but he wasn’t an ideal mix with LeBron and he was fading after their first year or two together.

Wade was good, but he wasn’t an ideal mix with LeBron and he was fading after their first year or two together. He swept Portland in the first round as the 6th seed.Was there for the 2 games in the rose garden. For as much as the blazers are trashed here, that Pelicans team was shit and had no business doing what they did. It was mostly AD with a little help from Holiday and Rondo.He was a top 3 player before this season and Lebron was correct to get that trade done and create a mismatch for which the league has no counter.But again, he always has to sacrifice a shit ton of depth on every one of his teams.

He’s still not top 3. LeBron, Curry, Giannis, Durant, etc. Hes one of the best but Giannis,Durant, Leonard are all bettter. Harden, George, Westbrook, Embiid, Doncic. Davis is good, but we can’t overrate him for being one game away.
Westbrook is modem day Marbury. Brick layer with no conscience. Paul George LOL. FTG. Harden and Embiid are both head cases when it matters.

Durant might not give a fuck anymore anyways. Those other guys you listed are headcases and disappear against playoff defenses.
