Breh real talk what we should ask is how old is the average Coliseum poster

The juvenile posts are really destroying this place.

It was :skip: at first but this is tiring.

Jerry West was 1-8 in NBA finals and you never hear Laker fans bashing him like they do Lebron
nikkas don't talk about him period unless it's some trivia about the logo :heh:

The difference is LEBRON IS STILL PLAYING

Maybe he wins 2 more? Maybe 3?

The point is WE DONT KNOW YET.

Why does this have to be spelled out to people :what:
At his rate he is more likely to lose 2 or 3

Being 2-6 or 2-7 in the finals :wow:

So Kareem has a faulty legacy?
Magic?

Wilt?
Kareem and Magic got 6 and 5 titles respectively. LeBron ain't at that level yet. I'll take 6-3 and 5-4 over 2-4 anyday.

And hell yes Wilt's legacy is hit hard with his Finals record. shyt he's even worse cause he caught majority of his L's to his ONLY damn rival and true competition of that era. Russell stayed handing Wilt yearly ether

:yeshrug: D-Rob was an MVP and the Spurs were considered championship contenders, even though most thought of them as pretenders. They were trending on the up, had one down year in 96-97, they got Duncan and it was a wrap for the league.

Duncan was carrying the team as a rookie in the playoffs. He turned on the killer instinct switch...offense was running through him.

Wilt frequently outplayed Russell. The celtics went 7 deep on hall of fame players. The teams wilt played on did not.

nikka Magic Johnson himself has said Bron is the 2nd best player EVER. But I'll take your word over his. :heh:
Magic Johnson has a son that smokes cock, plus hes +. Nobody cares what his fatass has to say. But, since you do care, Magic says Kobe is on his Mount Rushmore. He also called him the Greatest Laker ever. He also said hes the closest to Micheal Jordan that hes ever seen. You still riding on Magics train?

The genie is out the bottle now. The Cowherd's/Greenie's/Rome's of the world make it easy for cats to quantify greatness when they don't know much. Robert Horry has 6, but it'll be a cold day in hell before I pick him over Barkley or Malone. He'd pick them over him too if he was being honest.



Seriously. All trolling and stannery aside. How can you not consider Bron one of the all time greats? All time greats meaning top 15?
Hes at the lower end of the all time greats. Not anywhere near the top 5. Bottom half near 10, yea. I can see that. But the difference is, he chose his last 2 destinations. The first time, he thought it would be easy. I can't celebrate colluders. The second time, he knew exactly who was on the team, and who the coach was. He wasn't forced to Cleveland. But, as usual, he wanted the easiest route possible, and stayed in the east.

Cut the shyt. It's been funny as hell reading all these posts shytting on Bron for the last week, but let's keep it real for a second. Both times he's lost in the finals with Cleveland, he's had a much worse team. His losses to Dallas and SA are inexcusable in this "legacy" argument, but not this shyt against Golden State. None of these other cats are criticized for losing to greater teams (Wilt, West, Jabbar, Dr J) and neither should Lebron.

I was talking about the Spurs as a franchise before they got Duncan. They were a really good team that became elite and stayed as a model franchise once they got Duncan. He became the best player in the league in his second season and carried them to a ring his sophomore year in the league.
