Y'all always speak out of context and never factor in shyt. Its jusy smokes and mirrors for you. If Lebron averages 35+ points and a triple double while leading in all categories like last year then wtf can you say?

I know


He should have averaged 50+ points and a quadruple double :camby:

As long as Lebron doesn't pull 2011 and plays his ass off, win or lose :yeshrug:

Losing in the first round, with a great player is more likely a team issue from top to bottom.

Losing in the Finals, by virtue of logic, has to be more emphasized (and placed on the head of a team leader), especially if your team was good enough to make it to the finals.

Now, all of a sudden your team isn't good enough? When they lose in the Finals?

LeBron stans can't have it both ways...you give LeBron credit for saying he always makes it to the finals, but then he deserves no blame if he loses cause the Western Conference houses powerhouse teams?

So in other words, if LeBron was in the West he may have had a few 1st round L's?

Which is it?

Once you get to the top you're judged on your ability to stay there. As unfair as it may be in a team sport.

By that same logic, wouldn't that mean that losing in the first round should be more amplified than missing the playoffs or having the worst record in the league? Is it not possible to have a team issue from top to bottom and have a great player carry you beyond the first round only to lose to a better team? You are basically suggesting that Bron would've have been better off not showing up in the first round in each of the years where he lost Finals. Now I agree that the man warrants the credit or the blame no doubt...but by that same token you can't act like all Finals teams are created the same or call his team a superteam and then put all the blame on him when those other super players don't play like it. If Bron was in the West he wouldnt' be on the Cavs or the Heat, people often fail to understand this (or intentionally overlook it). I have an idea, how about we judge guys by how they themselves play and not by their circumstance...all the time and not just when either method is more in line with our bias?
