Jordan was the favorite in all 6 of his finals appearances,he went 6-0.Outcome as expected.

Kobe was the favorite in all 7 of his finals appearances,he went 5-2.Team performed below expectation.

Lebron Has been the favorite in 2 of his 7 finals appearances,he's gone 3-4.Team performed above expectation.

Lebron's teams have performed above expectation during his 7 finals appearances.
Lebron was the arguably favorite in half his finals runs
Only the last spurs and last year warriors were clear cut favorites and the first time he played the spurs they were favorites
Heat were favorites vs thunder, first spurs meeting, mavericks, and first warriors (if kyrie wasn't hurt blah blah) (even if he loses he should still be finals MVP blah blah) goofy shyt

cleveland has more guys who can attack the rim and they finished 2nd in the league in 3 point pct, why cant they compete?

Lemongrass, cherries, alkaline water
No they haven't
This year they got beat by 20 tho but nobody mentions that
When i said year I obviously was alluding to the basketball year, so Im guessing Christmas Day didnt happen.

Op and others trying to bolster GS as
a preemptive move to protect their man if he lose, and boost his legacy if he win. Just let this shyt play out :hhh:

I wouldn't be so sure actually. Bron is Bron, and Kyrie is not a good matchup for Stepth Curry. The key is can the rest of Cleveland's players step up and play well night in and night out.

Nope his team was the favorite during each Miami year, 4 times. Huge favorite in 2011 and slight favorite the other years. He would be right on par with expectations without that Dallas series. That's the biggest stain on his legacy by far

They tryin to hype this series but I think it will be a letdown.I think Warriors will finish them in 5 like it woulda been last year if draymond didn't get suspended

TYRONE GA!
Mike was 6 for 6,

And none of those teams Mike beat had ever won a title except a :flabbynsick: Lakers team who shouldn't have been in the Finals in the first place

Mike > Bron but all the teams Bron lost to in the Finals had won championships.

Spurs twice
Mavs
Warriors

That's something you can't say about the teams the Bulls beat in the Finals
