So is LeBron now officially immune from all logical hate?

Putting on my logical hate cap, he did get his ass handed to him in 3 Finals and let a Dwight Howard team keep him from a Finals duel with Kobe. His finals performance against Dallas is still one of the most mind boggling of all time.

Hard to win a series when the best teammate you have is Drew gooden or Mo Williams :manny:. Makes it even harder when pop is the coach or SVG is the coach on the other sideline. Can't be wearing a logical hate cap and hen blame him for 2009. 39/8/8 averages on 50% shooting. That's the best series he's ever played.

SVG is the LeBron stopper now?

He's a fantastic coach, even more so when his matchup is Mike brown on the cavaliers sideline. Van Gundy coached circles around brown. The cavaliers around LeBron that series turned in maybe the worst performance a supporting cast has ever given a star in any playoff series. They were arguably worse than his heat teammates were in the 2014 finals. Nobody shot 40% from the field, they allowed Orlando to shoot 50% from deep (whoever LeBron wasn't guarding would go off), they allowed Dwight to average 26 and 17 with 40+ in game 6, while big z and sideshow bob combined to foul out 5 times.

You got it backwards if the Warriors deserve an asterisk then so do the Cavs which is my point, I ain't into that asterisk bullshyt cause its a copout to make an excuse for when your team loses but the way yall went hard last year wit that asterisk argument and still bring it up in an attempt to erase Bron's loss yall have to apply the same logic to these recent Finals.:ld: Cryin that Draymond shoulda been suspended the last round doesn't make it true he shouldn't have got the suspension in either situation but arguin that its a make up call for not suspendin him in the Thunder series just further shows that it was a bullshyt unfair call and the Warriors got screwed in the Finals:martin:doesn't matter how you spin it they outplayed the Cavs last year and won Bron bein their only chance shows they were outplayed nobody else on that team played well. The Warriors came back and took the OKC series and the Cavs (wit plenty of help) won in the Finals:manny:but it doesn't take away from the fact they went 73-9 and are an all time great team.


:russell:Corny especially when you clearly go there yourself rushin in to cape for LeBron when I wasn't talkin to you and never seen you on here before.:mjpls:

I really would like to believe he will win one again but... I don't think the gravity of how good Golden State is now has hit you yet breh.
Nah I agree the odds are probably not in his favor to ever win another one

Now lets see if SecondThoughts takes this lifetime ban bet thats in his favor, or if he runs away online just like he ran away from @itsyoung in real life :jbhmm:

Numbers dont always tell the story with lebron
He's a master of stat padding
I've seen him get a triple double and still play like shyt
I'm pretty sure he does this so ppl who didn't watch the game or just skimmed through the box score can say "oh look at Lebrons stats, it's not his fault"

The Orlando series isn't the best series he ever played lol although I don't think he choked. Boston series game 5 and 6 he choked, I don't care what the Stats say. That cavs squad could of beat Boston

I mean.. what else does he have to do?

I've been hating on LeBron literally since he got drafted. I hated him even more when he joined the Heat with Wade and Bosh... he even made me hate Bosh, a beloved former Raptor, and Wade, one of my all time favourite players... BUT

In 2015 he went utter beast mode against the Warriors and played them literally alone... and lost in 6 games. He was even up 2-1 in the series... I finally for the first time reluctantly gave him credit and said what he did was legendary.

Now this year... he cake walked to the finals (Sorry Raptors brehs) and went up against a team that was 73-9... went down 3-1 in the series... and actually pulled off the greatest comeback of all time.

How can anyone logically hate on him now? What criticisms can you levy against him? He had an incredible series and put the team on his back. There were stretches where Kyrie put the team on his back and he even hit the series winning jumper but... LeBron was dominating them. He even brought one back to the Land when we all thought it was a delusion or a dream. He brought a title to his home town.

As a long time LeBron hater, I have nothing more to say about him. He did something incredible and anyone hating on him right now is out of his/her mind.

Believeland :wow:


One man made you do that? :dame:

I don't care what Lebron did with the decision and that pep rally. Kobe performed just as poorly maybe more. 38% from the field and 17% from 3pt range on a team that was HEAVILY favored. We're not talking about his time with Pau, this was 04 with Shaq. 22.6 pts a game on 38% from the field and 17% from 3 isn't better than 17.8 pts a game on 47.8% from the field and 32% from 3. Kobe took 22 shots a game Lebron took 15.

And Bosh and Kyrie weren't superstars, Kyrie may have just established himself as a superstar. Bosh never was and never will be a superstar. And Wade was nowhere near prime Shaq.

And in 08 and 09 Kobe had Pau, Bynum, Odom, and Artest. That's a better all around team than those Heat teams were.

And Lebron's first finals loss came against the Spurs with his 2nd and 3rd options being Mo Gibson and Ilguaskas. So with Wade Bosh and Kyrie he's 3-3, 2 losses against all-time great teams, 1 was an awful choke job no excuses.
Spurs weren't an all time great team. Warriors I'll give you that
