Lebron underachieved the legacy people prematurely paved for him

[DoubleClutch]

OP is right

Curry got a title quicker and with no other superstars

 

[DoubleClutch]

Naw it's the medias fault they hyped him up as a Jordan/Kobe type when in reality he's a rich mans pippen

Lebrons like a poor mans Penny Hardaway

Before the injuries though

OKC has injury problems

KD is also humble and didn't get a tattoo that says "The Chosen One" or promise OKC a ring then leave or say "not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4..." then bail on that city after suffering one of the worst blowouts in finals history. KD also doesn't play GM and handpick his teams.

So yes Durant has failed. Cool.

A lot of players have failed and not caught heat. That comes with the territory of calling yourself the king and getting a chosen one tat.

Not that hard to figure out why LeBron has more riding on success than anyone else. Doesn't take a Ph.D. breh.

It's also a lot easier to get a shot at the title in the East.

 

[madness]

He's lived up to the hype.

Not to mention this is way too premature. he can win a couple more chips in his mid to late 30s and end up with 4 or 5.

If he does I hope it's on another team and not those clowns in Cleveland

U guys think Jordan would've fared as well in the social media era?

He would have been EVEN Better TBH.

 

[Jplaya2023]

LeBron was set up to fail when u really think about it, the fact that hes done this well considering the circumstances is a testament to how good he is. U guys think Jordan would've fared as well in the social media era?

So social media was the reason lebron gagged in the 2011 finals? or was sporadic in the 2014 finals

Best perimeter player since Jordan, pretty good if you ask me

You retards don't realize that you're only admitting to just how good he is when he has 2 rings (something which very few NBA players can claim), still has a good 5 to 6 years left in the tank to get MORE, and you've deemed him as a "failure." When you're inadvertently setting the standards to be that ridiculously high for someone you're only admitting that deep, down you truly believe they're that good.

It's the very same reason why countless other players have failed, and have been given a pass for the things Bron gets crucified for. None of you fakkits will admit it but you all know. He's the best you've seen since Jordan, get over it.

With all due respect to Penny. He wasn't even good enough to be a great sidekick on a championship team, let alone lead a team to one. He didn't win with a prime Shaq breh.

Penny's best season was 21/7/4
LeBrons worst season (rookie) 21/6/5

That's the worst part of Brons game
