LeBron hurt the Lakers big time this year: this is in large part LeBron's fault.

But he can’t. You don’t embed minions in the media and use your sports agency to drive narratives unless you’re absurdly legacy focused. You don’t lie and say you never flopped, that you were bottom 50 in ft attempts (a Trump level easily disproven lie), throw your role players in Miami under the bus, don’t check your minion when he disrespects Chris Bosh etc if you aren’t. You don’t call yourself GOAT (and make your wife do so at an awards ceremony), say the bubble championship was the hardest of all time etc if you don’t. Whine about injuries when you lose. Whine about your roster. Whine on podcasts. Etc.

The problem for LeBron is that he thinks everyone is as stupid as his Stans. So normal people look at all of that and it repels them. You also don’t do it if you TRULY think you’re GOAT and your legacy speaks for itself

Exactly, MJ didn't have to say shyt and people was saying he's the GOAT when he was 25. They at different levels the stans just don't wanna accept. Look at baseball, whether Shoehi plays another 5/6 years at an MVP level or not most will agree he's the biggest talent to ever touch a baseball. It's just undeniable. MJ actually was that then backed it up with all the personal and team accolades

LeBron is top 3. I'm a huge fan of this brother's game and all his success outside of the game.

The Cavs Warriors 3-1 come back is top 5 sports achievements.

Best all around player - no doubt. Highlight reel legit looks fake.

Some of the best news ever was that the Lakers got him - 100%.

Two things can be true at once: he's top 3 and this season's failure is at least 60-70% on LeBron.

Why?
1. He pushed and used his power and influence to get his -let me see if I got this right..- podcast co-host (wtf) to be hired as Head Coach of the Loss Angeles Lakers, without ANY PRIOR coaching experience.
2. He was out here releasing barbie dolls right before the playoffs - you think MJ or Kobe are out here releasing dolls before going to war?
3. I get it: he wanted to play with his son. The push and the forcing of drafting Bronny James did NOT make the team any better. It was a distraction if anything.
But the biggest crime here is the ridiculous JJ Redikk choice. I get that he wants to control the team, but a dude who has never coached and who anyone with even 1% of knowledge about humans can tell is arrogant af (and arrogance usually means insecurity)... as Head Coach of the Lakers?

Bron is top 3. But this hurts his legacy.

His energy in the last game was NOT that of a killer who was out there to win. It felt like he gave in and gave up far before the last whistle.
When Anthony Edwards pushed him around in Game 4 and he didn't blow up because of it... it was a wrap. No way to lead the team and show aggression/will to win.

BRONNY JAMES JR GOT TOP 5 JERSEY SALES. HOW DARE YOU HATE ON THAT YOUNG MAN LIVING OUT HIS DREAMS! BE HONORED THAT YOU ARE WITNESS TO GREATNESS OF THE CHOSEN ONE AND HIS LINEAGE

SINCERELY,

RICH "DO IT LOOK LIKE STEPHEN A SMITH TOLD ME TO GET THE fukk OUTTA HIS FACE" PAUL

I HATED seeing him all buddy buddy with Ant during the game but the way yall micromanage legacy is childish. The finger wagging ‘this is gonna affect your legacyyy’ . fukk off

Lebron being annoying as a 24-7-7 2nd option at 40 >>>>

MJ on the wizards

Kobe getting the ‘let your coach’s kid score’ treatment 60 on 50 shots on a 30 win team

Hakeem in a raptors jersey

AI getting crossed up and ragdolled w/ the Grizzlies

Peyton manning 9tds 17 int

Willie mays with the unkept perm

I could go on. The fact Bron is likely gonna go out as an all star and all nba caliber player is unprecedented. And yall nggas talk about 4th quarter points. You’re too close to it you need to zoom out

LeBron retiring healthy would be a change of pace. People spent the whole season shiitting in KD saying he putting up empty stats. But we should just praise LeBozo for his empty stats because he remained healthy his entire career.

you nikkas never take a day off huh?

lebron lives in yall heads rent free.....

They were the 3 seed dummy

When the last time you looked up Kobe’s last 5 seasons in LA?!

 

[Kaypain]

2nd round just started. fukk the Lakers and their crybaby ass fans

Nah it’s over

In an anonymous poll of 142 NBA players conducted by The Athletic, Michael Jordan narrowly edged out LeBron James as the greatest player in NBA history, with 45.9% of the vote to James' 42.1%. This is the first time the lead in the poll was this narrow, with Jordan previously holding a larger lead in previous years.

Who is the NBA GOAT: LeBron or Jordan? For current players, longevity is narrowing the gap

According to our player poll, the greatest of all time hasn't changed. But it's not as clear-cut as it was even a year ago.

www.nytimes.com

Once the memory of Kobe’s aesthetics fade his numbers won’t stand the test of time.

Notice they used "142" players and not the entire 400... jordan is sitting around 70%... nobody respects this census lmao

 

[2 one 3]

Think about this…

Lebron has made the Cavs, Heat, and Lakers

BILLIONS… of dollars

I’m not mad at him getting all his bread while still being able to play at such a high ass level…

Imagine how much money this dude has generated for so many throughout many different industries.

“They” You realize it was a poll surrounding a multitude of topics and not just the goat right? You think the athletic is doctoring a poll and inserting fake quotes in the article

Anonymous NBA player poll 2024: LeBron or Jordan as the GOAT? Most overrated? Finals favorite?

Journalists from The Athletic spoke to 142 players, from all 30 teams, for this year's edition of the poll.

www.nytimes.com

You MAGA Mambas and Jordy fans with the conspiracy theories. Give it up it’s over. Nobody cares about the 90’s and sidekick rings

You think the athletic is doctoring a poll

ABSOLUTELY

MONEY TALKS

ONLY ONE PLAYER HAS A MARKETING TEAM ACTIVELY WORKING TO BOLSTER HIS LEGACY BY DOING AND SAYING ANYTHING 24/7 AROUND THE CLOCK

"ANONYMOUS" POLL

LOLLLLLL
