Lebron scorese 17 in the 4th quarter. The haters = crickets

[The Fire]

That I agree with, NBA is in big trouble when he retires since there isnt any superstars to transition over to.

you had Magic and Bird transition to Jordan
Jordan transition to Kobe/Shaq/ etc
Kobe/Shaq era cross paths with LeBron.

the lack of star power in the NBA is astonishing right now.

Giannis
Embiid
Wiggins
Towns
Simmons
Jokic
etc

 

[EducatedBrothaFromTheBank]

Giannis
Embiid
Wiggins
Towns
Simmons
Jokic
etc

Giannis - nobody cares about
Wiggins is a 6'8 better version of David Wingate
Towns - is a 7'0 player with no charisma or style. (this is a guards league)
Simmons - We'll See
Jokic - yeah, Jokic is gonna be the one to carry the league and bring in the ratings... watch out now

HE not clutch normally. But I gotta give credit where it's due. He was clutch

Do you mean, "Lebron is not normally clutch if you don't count the playoffs, elimination games, Game 7's, and 4th quarters in general"?

Thus "Lebron is not clutch" narrative is one of the most ridiculous things in sports. He literally holds the records for Game 7 scoring and elimination game scoring, and he ain't even primarily a scorer. He has two of the greatest Finals comebacks in NBA history against historically good teams. He's won four Game 7's in a row. He has more playoff game-winners than anyone in more than twenty years (and could end up with the most ever).

He's been clutch since his first postseason, when he got two game-winners in his very first series and controlled almost every fourth quarter, even against the Pistons. He's been at or near the top of the NBA in 4th-quarter stats and clutch stats every year since then. He literally had ONE bad game in 2010 (not even an elimination game and when completely outmatched by the other team) and one bad series on 2011, and some fools still trying to hold that narrative when he had a whole career before and after that proves otherwise.

Giannis
Embiid
Wiggins
Towns
Simmons
Jokic
etc

I don't think I've ever heard any of these players speak except Kawhi and that is rare as it is. Listen we all know all these players are good but superstars bring more to the league than just good games on the court..none of them strike me as superstar players for the league just good basketball players

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

I dont know anyone glib enough to still claim that "Bron aint clutch" alternative facts narrative, even haters

 

[Reggie]

Bron is so great that a lot of people (me included sometimes) take it for granted. We are watching an ALL TIME GREAT near his prime who can impose his will on the game anytime he wants to. To have played at this level for this year with that many playoff runs is amazing and he should be applauded for never really having a down season. I think he has at least another 3 years of high level play left too and his numbers are going to be crazy when he retires.

I agree but no need for a thread about 17 points in a quarter... shyt isn't rare or special. Great performance, but the thread starter pulled up like LeBron did some historical shyt.
