We gonna act like the 2018 Lakers with him missing 27 games should've made the offs? Welcome byke NBA on the coli:dj2:

27 games missed. Y'all nikkas are dense. Sports are really byke:blessed:

:unimpressed:THEY WERE ONE GAME BACK OF THE 8TH SEED
WHEN HE CAME BACK.


Right, after he missed 27 games. Not counting his other teammates who weren't healthy either.

:unimpressed:HE MISSED 7 OF THE LAST 8 GAMES
OF THE SEASON AFTER THEY WERE
ELIMINATED FROM PLAYOFF CONTENTION.

And literally ONE of those teams won more than 54 games. Just ONE. And that team's leading scorer was injured for the Laker series.

You're seriously gassing up the Aaron Brooks Rockets and the Deron Williams Jazz as the great teams the Lakers had to beat. :mjlol:





Who the fukk cares who you face in the 1st round? Those teams ain't shyt. They ain't gonna win no ring.

What matters is the actual contenders you face, not mediocre also-rans. LeBron beat 8 55-win teams in the East from 2011-2018. The 2008-2010 Lakers only beat 1, by your own count.

So why is your cutoff 50-win teams? Why not make the cutoff 55-win teams. Aren't the 55-win teams MUCH more likely to be actual Finals contenders?

You're out here gassing up mediocre teams that were destined to lose and ignoring the actual teams that had a chance. :mjlol:

Beating a 50 win team every round of the playoffs is more formidable than beating one 50 win team

use your brain

It ain't my fault Bron is 10-9 vs 50 win teams

:mjlol:
53-win 2007 Pistons
56-win 2011 Celtics
61-win 2011 Bulls
51-win 2012 Pacers (if they play 82)
50-win 2012 Celtics (if they play 82)
59-win 2012 Thunder (if they play 82)
50-win 2013 Pacers (if they play 82)
58-win 2013 Spurs
56-win 2014 Pacers
50-win 2015 Bulls
60-win 2015 Hawks
56-win 2016 Raptors
72-win 2016 Thunder
51-win 2017 Raptors
53-win 2017 Celtics
59-win 2018 Raptors
55-win 2018 Celtics


LeBron's beaten 17 teams that had 50+ wins when he was the #1 guy. MJ is the only player in history who can undisputably say he beat more.

And like I said, 50 wins is a stupid cutoff cause most those 50-win teams ain't shyt in either conference. LeBron has beaten TEN 55-win teams. No one else in the 21st century comes even remotely close as a #1.

And how many other starters were out at that time?

The only players on the entire team who played 70+ games were KCP and McGee. LeBron missed 27 games, Ingram missed 30 games, Ball missed 35 games, Kuzma missed 12 games, Hart missed 15 games, Lance missed 14 games, Zubac only played 33 and missed 23 before he got traded, Chandler missed 34 games, and Rondo missed 36 games. Damn near the entire fukking roster missed half the season.

So the entire 2012 season doesn't count now? :what:


He's counting the Aaron Brooks Rockets and Deron Williams Jazz as three great teams that the Lakers beat, but says the Durant-Westbrook-Harden-Ibaka Thunder and the KG-PP-Ray-Rondo Celtics don't count at all.

Wait, no, the baby Thunder in 2010 count as an elite Lakers opponent but the great Thunder team in 2012 doesn't count as a good opponent at all. :dead:

The agendas on here. :hhh:

why even respond to these laker haters?
They're not Laker haters, they're Bron haters and he plays for the Lakers now lol
If he was in the west those years wouldn't he have better teams:dwillhuh: It's not like putting the Cavs in the west. Imagine playing with Duncan,Parker,many or Kobe and gasol,or Nash,Amar'e,iso Joe,and Marion.
fukk all that, switch Bron and Melo and see what happens.

I speak in actuals and not hypotheticals

And for the record, Kobe beat those 50+ win 2009 Magic & 2010 Celtics teams that Bron lost to

:mjlol:

You don't understand that beating a 50 win team every round of the playoffs is daunting...only a select few can say they've done it

Kobe is one of the few

:sas2:
But in reality its not. Neither the Heat nor the Cavs nor the Lakers were going to get tripped up by some shytty Aaron Brooks-led or Deron Williams-led team in the first two rounds. It's completely meaningless.

All that matters is the teams that can actually beat you. You keep wanting to focus on mediocre-ass wins.

LeBron beat 10 55-win teams from 2011 to 2018. Who else can say they've done that as a #1? Why do you want to keep lowering the bar to 55-win teams?

Way to prove once again that you're a moron who can't read.

I said that losing guys due to Rona in this season is the SAME as losing guys due to injury in any other season. You were the one trying to talk like it was something different and special. You just owned yourself.

Lmfao at all the Bron hates in here. Y’all sound like you got a grand total of 2 brain cells when discussing him. Something about him just makes y’all brain shut off. Maybe cause he’s been living rent free in y’all’s heads for the past 2 decades :mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:.

The thread's claim was that it was an asterisk title. I said it wasn't.

When you claimed I would cop pleas, my exact words were, "How would it be any different than losing a guy to injury any other year?"

Lakers got killed by injuries in 2019....and it's still not an asterisk season. But you don't appear bright enough to get the point yet.


If AD gets knocked out by Rona, that will likely be the main reason the Lakers lose....and it still won't be an asterisk title for whoever wins. Because important players get knocked out and cause contenders to drop out of the picture every year.
