How can you not respect Lebron after this?

[Jerz-2]

So because he's a great basketball player, he's also supposed to have some sort of superpowers that make him the best GM in the NBA too?

You are fukking SLOW.

HE hand picked his teammates.

Therefore, he doesn't get to complain about needing more help, and neither do you stans.

Y'all have NOTHING BUT EXCUSES. Y'all coming up with more excuses than LEBRON is, he's already moved onto the off-season and you nikkas in here trying to defend his legacy (which he doesn't NEED)

GET out ya damn feelings.

He left it on the floor, as did Kyrie. Never seen too many pg's play at this level ever.

What are you supposed to do in a championship?

It's sad when a player gets love for giving his all in a championship, what else would be acceptable

bron played his heart out

to lebron and kyrie

They were just way too overmatched. I can't even make jokes about his finals record.

Nah my g


I've always respected LBJ

Kyrie is a dog... plAin and simple

 

[bzb]

op: how can you not respect lebron, he played his heart out. *salutes*

thecoli lebron hater brigade: *puts down beer and cracks knuckles* ....

LeBron scored the vast majority of that on drives in transition and when KD was not on him.

So who was Lebron scoring most his points on then? Draymond and Iggy?

And who was Durant defending instead? TT and Love?

Are you not proving my point?


If it's so easy to score 35ppg against an elite defensive team while also being the primary ball-handler and playing elite defense on the other team's best player, then why didn't Durant do it? Why wasn't he guarding Lebron one-on-one and fighting through all the screens?

 

[Primetime21]

He didnt take the defensive challenge

GET out ya damn feelings.

Haters using insults and all caps, making up special rules for Lebron that have never applied to another player, ever,

....then complain that someone else in their feelings.



So let me get this straight. If the Cavs have a professional GM who does nothing but build the basketball team for a living, but he can't build a team as good as the Warriors by the simple historical fact that it's virtually impossible to get four All-NBA players on the same team, then it's valid to point out the simple fact, "The Cavs don't have as much talent as the Warriors."

But if, as you believe, the Cavs just have a fake GM and Lebron is pulling all the strings in his spare time, while he also coaches and stars on the team, of course, then its invalid to point out that it was impossible to match the Warriors' talent, because, um, Lebron....?



Ya'all realize how stupid and in your feelings you sound?

 

[Reid2Achieve]

He was very impressive. And he's been amazing on the podium as well. I've gained a LOT of respect for him since he went back to Cleveland.

He was a monster the entire playoffs.

 

[Copy Ninja]

He played hard. But KD was the better player throughout the finals

Plus Bron's defense at times were absolute

 

[Copy Ninja]

This Warriors team would humble Kobe's teams and Jordan's teams too. It's a new era. Lebron is still GOAT of his era

Hell no.

Jordan's teams would have locked this Warriors team down in the 4th. Jordan himself would have locked Klay down.

There wouldn't be layups and dunks in the critical minutes versus the Bulls.

This Cavs team had THE worst defense i've ever seen in the finals.

The problem is, you're going to get inconsistent play like that when you play how LeBron teams play. This literally happens with every cast he has, nikkas have to notice a pattern by now. It happened when he played with the Heat too. Shoe in HOFer Wade and at least 3rd best SG of all time became inconsistent af. Well sought after FA and top 5 at his position at the time Chris Bosh became soft and useless.

This year, each team had 3 stars with a lot of offensive firepower around them. As far as I'm concerned, the difference in this series was the style of play and to a lesser extent, defense. Golden State plays a style of basketball that maximizes all its players talents and aims to keep everybody in rhythm. Cavs, and all LBJ teams, play a style of basketball that maximizes his talent and aims to keep him in rhythm and able to control the game at all times. It works often, sometimes it doesn't. This is one of those times. But cats gotta foh always taking the good of the way LeBron plays and then tossing the bad off onto his teammates. Didn't even bother with the rest of your post, because its more teammate blaming trash.

I've been trying to bring this up.
Good post. Needs it's own thread

Can someone explain how the Cavs managed to be so outmatched at the same time that they claim Bron, who is on the Cavs, to be the unparalleled best player on the planet

How is the best player in the league already top 10 player of all time player consistently on an underdog, but an underdog that manages to be in the finals every year and nearly sweep through the East

Something's gotta give

bruh, theres 4 other guys on the team

 

[Jplaya2023]

Lebron better let david griffin do his job as GM and stop meddling with players "he wants"

I think frye, korver, shumpert, richard (retirement) d will are all gone next year. They need to bring in younger more athletic players who can defend and shoot. Not specialist

How the hell are you going to legitimately sit here and act like LeBron didn't influence the front office to make all those moves? You're a disingenuous idiot if you think the front office WANTED to sign Dahntay Jones or Richard fukking Jefferson. They signed those clowns because they wanted to appease LeBron. They traded Wiggins to appease LeBron.

If LeBron strictly focused on being a player and not trying to bring in his people or put pressure on the front office to bring in his personal choices (because they're afraid if they don't he may leave again, which IS the case), then maybe he would have players around him who would make them more competitive such that cats like yourself wouldn't be saying "his bench is trash". How do you not understand that concept?

Take his dikk outta your ass and use LOGIC.
