...didn't Lebron lose he first year of his "dynasty" that was supposed to win six seven eight titles?
5 Finals losses will be brutal.

Exactly. I have no problem with people saying KD has more pressure but this house money card that people are giving Bron is dishonest as shyt. People were calling Cleveland slight favorites before they lost a game to Boston but now the Warriors are asterisk status again.
KD without a doubt. as Barkley put it....he tried to "cheat" himself to a win. While "cheat" may be a bit harsh, there is nothing worse than taking a shortcut to still lose a race. 
KD put the pressure on himself, he has no excuses.

never could understand the logic of penalizing someone for getting to the finals. so its best if he never gets there? Coli logic

So we shouldnt applaud him if he gets there either then, with your idiotic logic.

The entire premise of this thread is to penalize one of these guys for losing. Before you quote me, I know I know "kd situation is different" *juelz*never could understand the logic of penalizing someone for getting to the finals. so its best if he never gets there? Coli logic
good point. also, IMO, KD is a first ballot HOFer but I never viewed him as a fearless leader. in OKC I thought that was Russ. In GS I think Curry is the true leader of that team with his playmaking and shotmaking. I dont think they can beat Cleveland if Steph struggles for a couple of games. I also think Draymond is the emotional leader and he is what makes them who they are on the court. To be in the status of MJ, Jordan, etc...you should be a great leader. I think it took Bron a while to get to that point but he is there now. KD.....
5 Finals losses, and it'll prove he was a product of Superteams and feasting on a weak East his whole career. that'll be the narrative. Stephen A was talking about this on his radio show yesterday, everyone agreed
me personally, I dont care. the athletes are the ones that have to live with whatever the outcome is. I dont think it diminishes either really. KD put this pressure on himself just like Bron did when he went to Miami. and he felt that burn the first year...but he got over it and has 3 chips. Right now, KD's legacy is pretty much defined by what he doesnt have.
KD has no rings and joined a team that has the most regular season wins ever and was one Kyrie 3 and a crazy block from Bron from winning the 'ship for a second straight time. More pressure SHOULD be on him. The media may think otherwise though.

every team was a superteam. thats fact. I grew up during the golden age and the only team that ever won that wouldnt be considered a superteam would be the Billups led Pistons. every other team had multiple All Stars and HOFers, namely the Celtics and Lakers even up to the first "Big 3" so I could really give a fukk what SAS says.

Yeah those 90s Bills teams sure get the praise they deserve over those winners.
EDIT: Not to mention how much harder it is to return to the SB in the NFL too.
