Steph vs LBJ...who got more on the line?

[Standing on business]

Somebody please go and name me a 2 time MVP and champion that's not an all-time great in ANY sport.

Nash

Nash

Nash never won a championship

LBJ has to hear the chatter of him no longer being the best player in the league. He just can't afford to lose in back to back Finals against curry and his warriors. curry would officially be the alpha male of the nba, and make people wonder if much of james' success was due to a inferior conference.


simply put. golden state must win no matter what..if not this will be one of the biggest failures in nba history. there is no way u can have the best record in league history and not win the title to finish it off. it would be absurd. it also would move curry back down on the all time list dramatically.

Not entirely true. Flukes happen. Epitome 2007 NE Patriots.

However, I am confident Warriors will get there and beat the Cavs. Warriors have good defense but the Cavs do not match up well against defending the Warriors.

I believe LBJ has more on the line. They have the most expensive team this season plus they're deep in the luxury tax. This is their best chance. If they lose it this season, a lot of players are gone.

LeBron has more to lose. I am not sure how this is even debatable really. A 2-5 record in the finals will be something people will hold against him.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Steph gotta win.

His championship is already in question. They still weren't favored to win it all at the start of the season.

A finals loss would kinda validate the doubters.

 

[CrimsonTider]

Never. He don't play no defense

He led the league in steals

 

[Rekkapryde]

If Bron loses again, he gonna be Wilt Chamberlain status....


wait, he already is (2-4 in the Finals; same as Wilt)

 

[Big Boss]

If we're being objective here Curry. Anything short of a ring after 73 wins is considered a massive failure. And to lose to the team that everyone said you wouldn't have been able to beat if they were healthy? Double the ether. To a lot of people, that imaginary "asterisk" becomes justified.

Yea they warriors are playing for 2 championships

How is this even a fukkin question?!:colehuh:

It wouldn't validate the doubters at all. It's a new season. Y'all dudes just need to let it go.

I'm talking legacy here.

Steph and the Warriors don't win multiple championships, they go down in history as a team that had one great season.

Lebrons legacy is already solidified

 

[King Karim]

Never. He don't play no defense

funny thing is, his offense is his defense...odd but true


and not being the best defender on the court won't hinder his greatness....this guy averaged 30ppg while only playing about 35 mins per game, that efficiency alone is unbelievable

Nash

No championship dumbass
