LeBron Strikes Back: 'Rings Not Everything'

[SuburbanPimp]

This has been such an exhusting topic all week. None of this will be settled until after Lebron is retired so no sense in wasting all this time going back and forth.

Fukk what you heard, Rings do matter....

And Robert Horry or Jud Buchler never led a team to championship so that whole debate is stupid.

If Bron wings two more rings we can have this discussion, because I don't think he has to surpass Kobe or Jordan to be considered better. But one ring with great stats isn't going to cut IMO if you want to consider your self the best player in the game.

when u on top everybody gone hate them old nikkas see that bron got a chance to be the goat...

 

[MikeBrownsJob]

I feel you, just like when he changed his mind to take his talents to South Beach....

Now, for everyone else, there's a link. shyt's legit, playboys.

But Lebron is obviously butthurt. I don't agree with Bron one bit. It's just like having a job, you work to make money, if you play sports and don't win multiple rings you can't be put ahead of those who have. MJ6>Kobe5>Lb1.

 

[Killer Instinct]

Some people change their minds quickly. Kobe and his fans don't understand.

Stop quoting me, cac.

Rings do matter, but they're not the end all be all.

We can have the discussion about LBJ being the GOAT, now, breh. Bron doesn't have to win another ring. Some ( not me...yet) can argue that he's the greatest already. He's definitely in the convo.

nikka, you lame.

 

[Danny Up]

He's right. I'm in no way shape or form a LeBron James fan, but the ring argument has and always will be trash. LeBron James is far and away the best player the NBA has ever seen and if he was playing in Jordan's day. Nobody would even know Jordan.

lebron gonna end up shootn over 50% and averaging 'bout 26pts for his career--...

So you've proven that you can add. Move on, breh.

rings do matter at the upper echelon top 1%

Lebron retiring with 5,6,7(etc.) rings is much different than Lebron with 1 ring.

Lebron with multiple rings makes him the undisputed #1 of his generation and is the perfect summation of his career from being the Chosen One to really becoming the King. It then begins the conversation of GOAT in the rarified echelon that only MJ currently has the claim (if it happened that way ...)

Lebron with one ring will probably be viewed as him not reaching his full resume potential. We all know he is currently the greatest physical specimen to grace the hardwood and his constantly improving skillset is currently minimizing any flaws he may have. But, walking away with only one ring would always be held against him (if it happened that way ...)
