LeBron James in his 15th season..

[Mr_X]

LeThot knows he's not sniffing another ring, so fukk it, might as well stat pad in meaningless regular season games

 

[Versa]

Top 3 player ever

 

[Shutdown10]

At this nonsense. You can’t be serious.

Bron might be top 5, but it still does not feel right putting him there. It feels like he is still missing another title or two to rightfully be placed there.

It all he has to play for now unless he whores his self out again and goes and teams up with CP3 and Harden.

Cleveland is winning it all this year. Once they get IT on the first unit no one will be able to stop them. Bron will be able to coast for long periods and get easy ones while letting IT and Love P&R for possessions on end. Not to mention their second unit is a 4-5 seed type of team by itself.

If you though Kyrie's D was not up to par against GSW, then wait till you get a glimpse of I.T. The Warriors are going to have a field day on this defense. Lue is going to have to play Isiah by committee. You beat GSW by stopping them, not outscoring them.

to be fair to Kobe, they get a lot more rest/days off in between games today than even a couple years ago. stats nerds crunched the numbers and proved even one extra days rest affected a players numbers tremendously.

can't compare their stats vs players today. offense is so much more wide open

also, Bron is a stat whore. clear goal is to fill up the stat sheet. especially now that he knows he'll never get to 6 rings

breh......ZACTLY!




this nikka got mollywhopped in the FInals to the tune of a gentlemen's sweep and had the nerve to part his lips and say something to the effect of "I did my job, I averaged a triple double"
that's where his priorities have always been






I'll give him props for playing this well at this age, but everybody knows that nikka been on HGH anyway

 

[stepbackj34spud]

2nd best ever.

 

[Formerly known as...]

I tried to hate but Lebron is the truth.

Between him and Kobe I couldn't disagree with anyone's opinion on who's better but

MJ> Both of them. Honestly

 

[Ben.]

this is the dumbest thing ive read today....and this being the coli....thats saying a lot...

how could you possibly know what lebrons motivation is?

you nikkas make up shyt and run with it like its fact

It's funny, anytime Bron does something good it just amounts to stat padding and nothing else

He leads the NBA in clutch scoring this year, but that's all just "stat-padding" in the clutch too.

Against Philly he scored/assisted on their final 24 points to bring them from 5 down to a 7-point win.

Against the Kings scored 5 straight when the game was tied with 1:36 left.

Against the Grizzlies he scored 7 straight after the game was tied with 1:22 left (had final 13 points for the Cavs in that game).

Against the Hawks he hit the huge three with 1:48 left in a one-point game.

Against Charlotte he had the 3-point play to cut the lead to 1 with 2:28 left and the layup to tie with 1:48 left.

Against the Nets when it was 100-99 with 4:05 left, he singlehandedly outscored the Nets 18-10 over the next 3:30 to earn the W.

Against the Clips he had the 3 to make it a 1-point game with 2:01 left and the three to tie with 0:47 left, then hit the midrange J to with 0:31 left in overtime to make it a two-possession game and basically seal the win.

Against the Knicks he had the 3 with 1:23 left to take the lead.

Against the Mavs he had the layin when up just 1 with 2:20 left and another to push the lead to 5 with 1:07 left.

Against the Bucks the lead was down to 4 with 1:22 left when he hit two free throws and then the midrange J to seal the win with 51 seconds to go.


And that's all JUST during the recent win streak.

How the hell he "stat-padding" when all of that scoring is literally what's winning games?

Lebron the only player in history who could be scoring nearly 30 a game on 60% shooting and 40% from three and get accused of somehow "stat-padding" it. How da hell he doing to do that?

 

[Rigby.]

I wouldn't be surprised one bit if they give it to Lebron over Harden. They wanted to give it to Giannis but his team success isn't there. There's a little tiny narrative for Kyrie. The next astatine to block Harden is Lebron..

Yeah harden really is becoming the Kobe this gen...mans gonna get blocked every year

This the only place I see this narrative too, I specifically remember some on here tearing down his 2016 finals performance for the same reason which was absurd. He definitely does some here and there but people act like any great Bron performance = stat padding.

 

[Big Boss]

Can't afford another Finals loss.

Anybody neggin' or gettin' mad at this post, your mother dies

3-6

 

[Professor Emeritus]

3-6

Kareem was 1-9 until Magic joined the team, and people call him top-3 all-time.

Kobe was 5-15, and just 2-11 as the team leader

Shaq was 4-15

Bird was 3-10

Dream is in my top-5 all-time and he 2-16

EVERYONE in modern bball loses more often than they win, even Jordan.
