Nick Wright ether's Chris Mannix

[Goat poster]

It’s hard to take Nick Wright seriously when he’s such an obvious and blatant Lebron stan. Even if he does make a decent point.

This board does a poor job of separating fans from obsessive stans but Wright is clearly the latter.

He’s the answer/opposition to the Obvious and Blatant Lebron haters in the media that have made MILLIONS shyting on Bron for literally EVERYTHING.

It’s just how media is homie

 

[THE MACHINE]

I can’t belive what I’m reading


Pacers have PG hibbert lance west they not getting past them .... Lebron and his team wins .... east is weak

The raptors for the past 4 years gonna get him... Lebron team wins ...east is weak

Bulls for 3 straight years gonna get him ... Lebron wins ... east is weak

Love gets his arm pulled out it’s socket ... Lebron still beats the cletics ....east is weak

Bulls have a complete team love is gone kyrie have one knee cap ... somehow the cavs win ... the east is weak

Hawks 60 win team (spurs east) and some how after the cavs win they was frauds


This been going on for years and it’s always the east is weak how about this guy knows how to play

"bu...bu..bu...the east let the 76ers get a 3-4 seed, those dudes are young. They can do that over there because the east is weak"

Meanwhile Donovan Mitchell, not even the rookie of the year, gets a 4 seed out in the tough, brutal, frightening, mighty mighty west with no Hayward, trading Hood, and Gobert out for 30 games.

"bu...bu..bu..Bron wouldnt do this in the west. The east is weak"

They dont mention the scary, spooky, gauntlet that is the west has only put 2 teams in the finals the last 5 years and Bron is 2 and 3 against them and would probably be 3 and 2 but Kyrie and Love were out for most, if not all of the series. Got the defending champs resting their most important player for a series this year as a precaution. Some scary west that is. Like they dont even worry about he Spurs, Minnesota, Utah, OKC or anybody.


"bu...bu..bu....Draymond missed a game in '16"
They dont mention Love missing a game too

Nick Wright is a FOOL and so is anyone who takes his shyt seriously.

All he does is contradict himself over and over...

He keeps saying the regular season doesnt matter until its time to craft his agendas...

Pretty sure the Raptors weren’t even the favorites against Miami that year, but let Bron stans tell it, people thought they were gonna beat Cleveland

Celtics were called the worst 1 seed ever, said they only beat Chicago because Rondo got hurt, pretty sure were underdogs against Washington despite having HCA, but let Bron stans tell it, they were expected to beat Cleveland

I think we were the favorite but very minimal against MIA....Cavs have been the favorite since 2015 every year.Nobody picked us to win a game against Cleveland,they were 1st we were 2nd,i think we actually did more than what people expected.

This fool will tell you regular season wins doesnt matter until Cleveland starts winning a few games and then he will tell you thats why theyre the favorites.

Hes got his head so far up LeBrons ass you cant take it seriously...

@ those false narratives. Nobody had the Hawks beating the Cavs in 2015. Nobody had the Raptors beating them in 2016. Nobody had the Celtics beating them last year. They were the overwhelming favorites in every one of those series. Lebron fans trying to re-write recent history as if we all just forgot or something is honestly hilarious.

I fux with LeBron heavy, but Nick Wright is single handedly making me not want to see him win a chip. I thought Kobe stans were delusional but this nikka here be in some other shyt.

 

[GOAT]

I didn't say it all took place after the series, I said it took place over the course of the series, from when they took the 1-0 lead until the final game. That crap happens all the time on The Coli, do you pay attention to anything? Watch any open poll change over the course of the game/series as it gets more and more obvious what the result will be.

And how does what I said translate to "damn near nobody voted?" I'm sure there were well over a hundred votes before the series started. Stop making up stuff.




One source? Pretty much all the sources said the same thing. This is what showed up first on google:

NBA.com net roundup: 20 experts picking Cavs, 13 picking Hawks (they use Kyrie on offense as the lead-in photo, reminding you that people were only picking the Cavs IF they had Kyrie)
Sporting News: 1 picked Cavs, 1 picked Hawks, but the guy who picked Cavs said his main reason was "Irving and James are the two best players in this series"
SB Nation: 4 Cavs, 2 Hawks, but one of the guys to pick Cavs said, "Feels like a coin flip", so just as easy could have been 3-3
Topbet.eu: Picked Cavs in 7, but on the condition: "Cleveland can’t afford Irving to miss any games moving forward, especially against a team like Atlanta."

And note that just about EVERYONE was saying the series would go 6 or 7, and that's with Kyrie coming back rested and somewhat healthy.

So the trend is clear. It was generally seen as a toss-up series, with the toss-up falling about 60-40 in the Cavs favor IF they had Kyrie.

That's what the receipts show.

Now compare that to:

Nobody? Just a straight lie, it was a lot of folk. And "overwhelming favorite?" NONE of those sites I listed were calling the Cavs the overwhelming favorite, they all were saying it would be a close series and that's WITH Kyrie on the floor.





I didn't say one word about that, liar.





How is 20+ comments and 60+ votes "a few"?

Including some of the guys who were dapping and cosigning you.




I negged you because you lied about me and continued to lie about me.

You claim I was rewriting history, but you can't quote a SINGLE statement I made for which you have a receipt to prove me wrong. Not one.

At least I get the satisfaction of negging you off your 100 rep while you trying to put a dent in 3,000.

Again, stop it. Trying to make excuses about a poll that proves your entire argument wrong is classic Lebron stannery. There are very few votes for the Hawks. So if they were somehow winning or the vote was close before the Cavs took control of the series, then that would mean damn near nobody voted. Not too difficult of a concept to grasp.

So even on the cherry picked sources you pulled, let's add it up. 35 people voted for the Cavs. 20 voted for the Hawks. So just out of the sources you're using to claim the Cavs weren't overwhelming favorites, about 64% of the vote was in the Cavs favor. This is with you ignoring polls because of bullshyt excuses that you can't prove like "but....but....people could've voted after the fact "

You're in a thread defending a guy who said the Cavs weren't favored over the Hawks, Raps, AND Celtics. So go ahead and show me where those teams were favored over the Cavs. You've been attributing shyt other people said to me this whole argument, even in this very post(talking about "the guys dapping and cosigning you"), yet you can't even defend the Lebron stan that this thread is about?

You negged me because you're in your feeling and you somehow think I give a fukk about rep or something. Soft internet hoe tendencies.

Does Skip Bayless or any of the million other Bron haters that’s been going hard at Bron for YEARS make you feel some kinda way as well?

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Y’all really in here trying to rewrite history

Every time a Lebron team loses a game...... how many the threads pop up clowning, criticizing, or proclaiming their downfall?

With Skip it's obvious trolling. I think Nick Wright would give up his family to live with Bron. nikka is a creepy cac.

 

[TheNig]

Its funny to me how the narrative on LeBron has shifted....

We talk about GS and Hou and even the Spurs to an extent to win it all.

With LeBron, we talk about him winning the East and that's where it usually stops. We don't talk about him winning it all anymore.

 

[Lord_Chief_Rocka]

Yes they did. I'll dig up some of the articles/hot takes later on. People thought even the pacers were going to beat the cavs in the 1st round last year

So basically trolling on an Internet forum represents what the public thinks of a series

Who denies that he has morons rooting against him? That doesn’t change the fact that trying to paint a narrative where the Cavs have been perennial underdogs in the East is foolish as hell

 

[Lord_Chief_Rocka]

These Bron peasants don’t understand someone projecting what they hope will happen isn’t the same as what they actually think will happen


All to make Bron an underdog


Come to think of it, how many times in this finals run was the second best player in the series not on Bron’s team?



The 3rd best player?

In the East

So even on the cherry picked sources you pulled, let's add it up. 35 people voted for the Cavs. 20 voted for the Hawks. So just out of the sources you're using to claim the Cavs weren't overwhelming favorites, about 64% of the vote was in the Cavs favor. This is with you ignoring polls because of bullshyt excuses that you can't prove like "but....but....people could've voted after the fact "

How the hell is it cherry-picked when they were the first ones to show up on Google? ESPN, NBA, Sporting News, and SBNation are "cherry picked" sites?

You lied again.

And YOU are the one who can't prove your receipt. I gave you all sorts of receipts that I can prove happened before the fact, including 55 expert opinions and 20+ pre-series Coli opinions. You have provided nothing that you can prove came before the series.

How you gonna try to use an argument against me that applies twice as much to you?

And no, if only 64% of people pick a team to win and they're all guessing 6-7 games then that team is NOT an overwhelming favorite. When a team is an overwhelming favorite they get 90-100% of the expert picks because most of those experts don't pick underdogs just to look dumb. When the split is closer to 60-40 that's evidence that the series is damn close.

And you ignoring the fact that several of the experts who picked the Cavs said it was a "coin flip" or that they would ONLY win if they had Kyrie for every game.

You're in a thread defending a guy who said the Cavs weren't favored over the Hawks, Raps, AND Celtics.

I didn't defend him, I attacked three stupid, easily proven false statements that you and your co-signers made.

You lied again.

You've been attributing shyt other people said to me this whole argument, even in this very post(talking about "the guys dapping and cosigning you"),

How can you claim that I attributed shyt other people said to you when your quote has me attributing it to other people?

You lied again.

The only claims I attributed to you were that "nobody had the Hawks winning" (false) and that "The Cavs were overwhelming favorites" (false). You also said "they were never in a series that people thought could go either way", which is also obviously false.

The false claims that other people made, I attributed to them. I'm just using them to laugh at you because YOU said nobody said those things when even the people trying to stan your case right now were the very ones saying those things.

Since I never said "Nobody said....", trying to come at me with other people's words does nothing for you.

You negged me because you're in your feeling and you somehow think I give a fukk about rep or something. Soft internet hoe tendencies.

If you don't care then why did you come right back and neg me.

People who don't care about negs don't do retalitory negs for nothing.

I negged you for a reason - you keep lying on me.

You, on the other hand, have not been able to come up with ONE receipt for ONE false word that I've said.

 

[Big Boss]

Who cares what some fukking idiots on television said. They are paid to make ridiculous predictions and spice up the first few rounds by painting pictures that don't exist.

The only "prediction" that matters is the fukking Vegas line. Cavs have been the favorites in the East since LeBron came back and it's not close... and this year guess what? They are still the favorites.

Now Kyrie out for the playoffs
