That same jazz team that you shytting on best s lakers squad with 4 all stars (Shaq,Kobe,Eddie Jones,van exel)

They would’ve punished the raptors

The only two teams in the past 40 years to perform worse offensively in the finals than the 1998 Jazz were the 40 win 1981 rockets and the 2003 nets. Hard to punish anyone when you’re scoring 80 points per game.

Yeah and those jazz were playing against the bulls who had 3 hall of fame DPOY caliber players

Toronto would get destroyed by the jazz
Ibaka and JV would be ineffective

Lowry can't outplay stock

Derozan never shows up

Lebron's legacy isn't defined by beating average teams in the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Is he going to win the championship or isn't he?

His legacy is based on what does on the court. How miserable do you have to be to think that he only deserves credit when his team wins the championship?

This wasn’t a case of the Jazz being shut down by a great defense. Absolutely nobody could score at a half decent rate besides Malone. Stockton didn’t even average 10 points. In fact over the last 5 games of the series he didn’t even average 7 points. If he plays anything like that then he isn’t of much value at all.

You gotta use context it was the late 90’s scoring was nowhere near as high as it is today

The raptors are not beating that squad

the jazz were able to handle the 98 lakers they’d have no problems with the lebronto raptors

 

[BigTyme Records]

Did Bogut going out not allow Cleveland to attack the basket more easily? Is attacking the basket not Lebron's primary weapon.

Don't try to act like I'm talking crazy, because I can even pull up the articles, from the day AFTER Bogut were injured, that said Cleveland should have an easier time attacking the rim because of Bogut's injury - and they DID.

Also, Kyrie averaged 27ppg for the series, shooting over 40 percent from THREE. That nikka didn't get carried, he did some of the carrying. To say nothing of his big shot.

As for Kevin Love, he never levels up in the Finals, so what did he really miss?

Bogut was also injured for the cavs in 2017 lmao. Cavs needed a rim protector and he got injured on the first play. So does LeBron get to use that same excuse??

 

[Illin Degenerate]

hell of a shot off glass but that is some terrible defense. half ass attempt to double and deny him the ball full court, then once he makes the catch they completely abandon the double team. at least continue to double until half court to see if you can get the ball out of his hands. then on the actual shot sure its awkward, but no contest whatsoever.

 

[bigillwill06]

lol. Steph was playing through injury, and clearly wasn't himself; Draymond got suspended for a game; and Bogut, their rim protector, who was making it difficult for Cleveland to finish around the rim, was lost for the series.

If that is what you're bragging about, I guess you have to take what you can get.

still neglecting kyrie and love being out the first finals they played and lebron almost beating them his self...

He is also giving kyrie props for putting # on steph but He is trying to discredit Bron for going against a injured steph


How can you praise Kyrie in the 16 finals vs Steph yet try to discredit Bron for saying he went up against a injured team. Yet not do it for Kyrie


Ive never heard ANYONE shyt on kyrie for destroying a injured Curry. nikkas agendas so obvious lol

Where is the low quality posting tag for you?

NO ONE on the Jazz other than Malone scored more than 12ppg in the Lakers, Spurs, or Rockets series either. Stockton only scored 9ppg against the Bulls, but that was only a bit worse than the 10ppg he scored against the Lakers. NO ONE on that team other than Malone could really score. They were old and they weren't all that skilled to begin with, not at the level of today's players.

To claim that a 36-year-old John Stockton barely averaging 10 and 8 would outplay prime Kyle Lowry.

Where are all the 36-year-old White Americans dominating the NBA in 2018? You think it's just a coincidence that a 1998 Finals team could start FOUR White Americans at the same time, while nowadays it's practically worth a news article when a White American breaks a starting lineup past the first round of the playoffs? What, did they get different juice back then or something?

36-year-old John Stockton started all 20 playoff games
35-year-old Jeff Hornacek started all 20 playoff games
Greg Foster, who couldn't score, couldn't defend the rim, and nearly averaged more fouls than rebounds, started 16 playoff games
Adam Keefe, an unathletic and unskilled oaf who couldn't start at any other point in his NBA career, started 10 playoff games and 75 regular season games

That's FOUR White guys starting double-digit playoff games for one team, and all four are either 35+ or were never even athletic to begin with.

Imagine that being the Big 3 of a 2018 NBA FInals team, with the two short White guys both being 35+.

And imagine that those were the other two starters.



Now tell me, what the hell happened where you're saying a 1998 team with FOUR White Americans starting could wash the #1 team in the East in 2018 when in 2018 there ain't four White Americans starting in the whole damn NBA combined?

You think White people born in the 1960s had some special basketball skill gene that they lost 20 years later?

If athleticism was a surefire winner then Harden wouldn't be better than Derrick Rose and Westbrook. Larry Bird was better than most of the "athletic" players of now

That same jazz team that you shytting on best s lakers squad with 4 all stars (Shaq,Kobe,Eddie Jones,van exel)

They would’ve punished the raptors

Another post that deserves a low-quality tag.

The Lakers had four all-stars because they stuff ballot boxes and because talent sucked in the West, not because they were magically better than some other team 20 years later.

Kobe averaged 15-2-2 on 42% shooting in 1998. You really think a player doing that in 2018 would have a chance in hell at an all-star nod?

Eddie Jones and Nick van Exel were better than Kobe, but they don't have a chance of making a 2018 all-star squad. Lowry/Derozan >>>> van Exel/Jones.

And on top of 3 of their 4 all-stars being mediocre, that team played together horribly in 1998. They weren't good yet at all.

Pointing out that van Exel, Jones, and teenage Kobe all made the All-Star team in 1998 is NOT a good argument for the West being strong back then.


If the Utah "we start 4 White guys and none of them can jump or run for shyt" Jazz were so dominant in 1998, where the hell are all the Greg Fosters and Adam Keefes starting for Finals squads in 2018? Where are all the 35+ White legends going to All-Star games and being the #2 on a Finals team? Where all the White Americans at now?
