LeBron Strikes Back: 'Rings Not Everything'

[street heat]

Also if rings aren't everything, why did he go to Miami? Bron's decision to join up with wade and bosh should've put the whole "ring" discussion to bed for good. He knows how important they are or he would've never left

Plus, I can't believe nikkaz still using the Robert Horry argument.

uhm because he competes in a sport for a living ? so maybe he would like a chance to actually win one day.

Lebron's words are full of so much hurt because jordan didn't choose him. Lol at all these lebron nut riders cosigning him like he's saying some sort of revelation.

Its funny how bron switched it up without us even noticing.
when chuck was dissing him,bron was like he dont even have any rings.
when he came to miami he was like not 6 not 7.
but when mj says not 1 but 5. all of a sudden rings dont matter robert horry lead his teams to 7 championships

Lebron never said that rings don't matter though. Why do you folk have these little agendas? It's corny.

Bron shouldnt have taken the bait. The whole MJ quote was him saying it was too close to decide, even joking with Ahmad by saying Durant because decision was so hard between Bean and Bron....only then did he say basically to break the tie for his decision, he's taking 5 over 1. Bron need to tune out the media sometimes, even if it is MJ.

Bron cried in the car for a good 10 minutes.

LeBron James of Miami Heat says it's unfair to judge players based on titles won - ESPN

He's absolutely fukking right, too. Have a seat right there, Michael.

its a kiddie argument on both sides. but what seperates measuring rings is only a fukking moron would bring up Buchler or Horry. and mention them in the same breath as Russel or Kobe when comparing championships.

 

[TheNig]

It seems Lebron realizes something that most people don't; context matters. I agree with what Lebron is saying.

what about the context of winning multiple championships as a superstar player?

So Bron never actually said that rings don't matter huh? And ima MJ fan to the core, but i'm starting to believe he is getting salty because he knows Lebron may threaten his legacy as the greatest ever. He played against Kobe and while Kobe wasn't in his prime the first time he got a second go around against him when he came back with the Wiz. So i think he's satisfied as far as knowing if Kobe is as good or better than he was. But he missed playing against Lebron by one season and i know that it tears at his soul that he could never compete against him. Even at his advanced age he would have wanted to have known. While that will never be known, like i've said before if Bron wins 4 titles and finishes with like 7 MVPs than the argument will get real then. Especially if he was to ever go back to Cleveland and lead them to the promised land. That may be what would put him over the top.

how you gona be the greatest ever when a 34 year old Jason Terry OUTSCORES you for the series in the games biggest stage.

i guess a 1-3 finals record, 1 sweep and 1 choke job are completely forgotten because he won 1 and now hes the goat

I said if he wins about four titles he wll a legitimate argument that he's better than Mike. It's nothing i can say for him choking in 2010 and 2011 in the Finals. That will always be there and will always be brought up when they talk about his legacy. But if he keeps on winning than it will be talked about as a blip on his radar during his career, instead of defining his career.
