Giannis did what Bron was S'posed to do

[JYoung24]

Giannis, Lebron, and MJ the only players to drop 50 in the finals

Bron got 6 more 40 point finals games than Kobe, KD, and Curry do combined

why yall keep bringing up 40 pt games

why yall keep bringing up 40 pt games

They’re just making up an arbitrary standard to slight Bron.

I don't think you're following. Jimmy Butler was only in the Finals cause Giannis lost to him. It could have been MVP Giannis in the Finals, but that didn't happen cause Giannis lost. How is it a knock on Bron and not Giannis that Bron beat an inferior team in the Finals when the only reason that inferior team got there was because Giannis couldn't get the fukking job done?

And Bron beat the 2017, 2018, and 2021 MVPs on the way to the Finals. If it wasn't for Giannis choking against the Heat, the Bron-led Lakers would have beaten all of the last 4 MVPs in that "mickey mouse" playoffs, with no home court advantage, and only dropped 3-4 games combined while doing it too.




No one wrote anything about the leadership of Dwight Howard, much less "paragraphs".

I'm starting to think you have some sort of reading impediment.

giannis did get hurt last yer even tho they lrobaly would of still lost but he was dominating the game he got hurt in

 

[T.he I.nformant]

Man, there’s so many fukking levels to Giannis and this Bucks team winning the chip. So happy for them.

Because Lebron is apparently not a scorer but he’s had more dominant scoring performances than Kobe in the finals. Lebron has quite a few finals that were better than Kobe’s best. That’s just facts

Fooled the hell out of me

 

[dontreadthis]

your right they dont make it out the first round without bron because kyrie is not a number 1 but hes a elite number 2 puts up number 1 numbers and kevin love was just avg 26 and 13 right before he got to the cavs then u add lebron that makes them a superteam

Lebron plays in an offensive system in which he’s pounding the ball all game


Any superstar can put up numbers playing like that

Next.

KD and Harden both played on offenses that were ISO heavy in OKC and Houston and neither have a fraction of the dominant playoff performances that Bron has. How many coaches Kobe get fired because he couldn't play without the triangle?

 

[JYoung24]

K Love a superstar now?

no but he was a top pf

nah and like i said kobe didnt have to score 40 u act like kobe hasnt had a bilunch of 30+ points games in the finals

I feel like it was a necessary evil tho.

For years plenty of players have fell victim to incompetence from the front office, but the fukked up part is that the front office would get none of the blame while the player is the one to deal with the negative energy. Which is understandable because they're the ones taking the court, but there should be a balance. The past decade allowed players to hold the front office accountable for the team that's on the court.

Alot of blame also goes to the media for creating these narratives of rings, rings, rings. The same ones that are showering Giannis with praise now were the ones running free agency articles just a few months ago about him potentially joining the Warriors or Heat before he signed an extension.

Don't forget he walked out on Malika Andrews back in 2019 for asking a free agency question after being eliminated, 2 years before his deal was over.

Dame is in a similar situation, but Portland's FO track record lately shows that he's behind the 8 ball in the championship chase.

To win a championship you need a lot of things to come together. I think once people realize this and understand that every situation is different then they'd enjoy the game a bit more.

Was it tho?

Bron would have eventually won a ring in Cleveland just like I believe KD wouldve gotten at least one in OKC.

These dudes so busy running from the ghosts of Charles Barkley and Karl Malone to realize all rings aint created equal.

He'd never admit it, but KD would gladly trade those 2 rings in Golden State for 1 in OKC.

Giannis is restoring the feeling

Kds most dominant playoff performance came on Lebrons head tho

 

[BiggWebb79]

Wasn't the reason that trade didn't go down (according to Stat) was because there was no reassurance that Bron was resigning? That was reported by a few CLE beat guys and national guys

Dan Gilbert didn't want to add in JJ Hickson as a part of the deal for Stoudamire

 

[Shadow King]

Its refreshing to see this tho, hopefully Portland can get Dame some real help so he can get at least one.

Something special about a home grown ring, means alot more than these manufactured rings these players have been chasing the last 10 years.

Hopefully Ja, Zion, and Lamelo are watching and choose a different path than the old guard did.

If the Grizzlies, Pelicans and Hornets offices do what they're supposed to do, they will.

are we still pretending like Khris Middleton fell into Giannis lap?

The Bucks traded for Middleton hoping he and Giannis would become this. I'm not understanding what this post means.
