I CANT WAIT TO SEE HOW HE OVERCAME "THE LEBRON RULES" IN DOCUMENTARY FORM.

I MEAN WHAT OTHER PLAYER IN HISTORY COULD OVERCOME OPEN SHOTS
AND BORIS THE DEFENSIVE OVERLORD?

DID YOU NOT SEE THE "LEBRON RULES" IN THE LAST FINALS?
LET THE BEST PLAYER IN THE GAME TAKE WIDE OPEN SHOTS...
THEN GUARD HIM WITH AN OVERWEIGHT CENTER
WHO FORCED HIM TO GO 2/18 FROM THE FIELD WHEN HE COVERED HIM.

CANT WAIT TO SEE THE DOCUMENTARY ON THAT...

THE PISTONS CREATED THE FILM BREAUGH...
OF COURSE THEY ONLY SHOWED THE CLEAN PLAYS IN THIS,
AND MADE IT LOOK LIKE ALL SOUND DEFENSE.
LOL...THEY LOOPED THE SAME HIGHLIGHTS ABOUT 5 TIMES IN 12 MINUTES.
:devil:
:evil:

:dead:

The impressive thing is, besides Rodman and Salley, all of those guys lacked athleticism and/or size

Dumars, Thomas, Laimbeer, Aguirre, Mahorn, ...

Bad Boy Pistons:blessed: I remember being excited to watch them play because they didn't p*ssyfoot around. They made you earn every single point. Great video. Shows how tough dudes were back then. People forget that Zeke was one of the toughest players, ever. I know AI is a big favorite in terms of little men, but Zeke would be my pick for GOAT little man.

All that to simply slow him down, and he still had a good series. It was a humbling set though. This taught Jordan to facilitate more and use his teammates.

We gonna act like Lebron didn't dismantle one of the best defenses in the league in the Pacers with a crippled Wade and Bosh?

We gonna act like he didn't drop 45 in an elimination game on the 2nd best defense in the league in 11-12 when he routed the Celtics and the 10th best defense in Indiana? Hell, every team Lebron played in 11-12 was a top
10

For all the talk that Lebron doesn't do good against good defenses, he tends to do just fine against them in the playoffs.

Lebrob averaged 25 PPG on 45% shooting which is low for him and great for almost every other scorer in the league with 10 REB and 7 AST. In what world is that a bad game?

Lol what's an awful series for Lebron is what Rose averages his MVP year. :russ:

He dropped 45 on the :flabbynsick: celtics. The highlights of that game is reminiscent of the Bobcats game: weak defense. Then you gotta consider that he had prime wade and prime bosh and a bunch of shooters. I just checked the highlights again. Most of his points were 1 on 1plays. That is not what I would call dismantling a defense. Why wasn't he dismantling the Celtic defense in 08,09,10?

He can't go 1 on 5 and still look good like Jordan did. :pacspit:

Those Celtics were ranked 2nd in defense, Wade was crippled that entire playoffs and was getting his knee drained after games, and Bosh had just torn his abdomen in the previous series and had to get surgery right after the playoffs ended.

Anything else? :lolbron:

Out here in my damn drawls
Jordan looked strong and light as a feather at the same damn time :mindblown:. He moved like a fukkin' puppet, like he had no bones in his body, but he was solid as hell just running to the rim like, "fukk it :demonic:"


I watched alot of tapes and film on Jordan, saw alot of games, but when watch the current batch of players and you come back and watch stuff like this after a long time, it's like :lawd: all over again

Dude was literally built for basketball. Those huge hands, that first step and quickness, that jumping ability and hang time, that acrobatic skill set mixed with being packed full of muscle...

MJ that kinda player that makes you just scratch your head and be like "How the Fukk is that even possible" when he does something amazing.
