More like @The Dankster just ended your little thread with simple logic and now you refuse to reply because there's nothing you can say. :russ:


The Dankster is a moron. I'm not reading his 600 page tome. Kareem winning 6 mvps doesn't mean shyt because the argument y'all use about Kobe is he didn't lead his team to a "CHAMPIONSHIP". Keep up, moron. The Big Trophy. The Big Win. The Big Game. Winning 6 MVP trophies in the REGULAR SEASON is not relevant to THAT discussion whatsoever. A deflection. Not pertinent. Not applicable. A waste of time. A pointless statement.

Does Harden or Westbrook winning the MVP this year have any bearing on their abilities to lead a team to a championship? No. So why is @TheDankster using that as an argument here? Because he's fukking stupid and people think because he posts 5,000 words per post that he isnt. If anything, it makes Kareem look funny in the light to have won so many regular season trophies only to disappear in the Finals.

You nikkas aren't employing any sort of logic whatsoever as to why Kobe is a bum for only having 2 Finals MVPs with 5 Championships but, Kareem having 2 Finals MVPs out of 6 Championships isn't. fukk outta here.

As I already told you, there's a lot more to ranking all-time great players than one isolated aspect that you seem fixated on. Should be common sense to anyone that remotely understands the game, but now you're frustrated and in your emotions because shyt aint simple like you want it to be. Tough break, smarten up or stay mad

:dahell:

Kobestans going full retard in here.

How da fukk does winning an extra title, with the same number of Finals MVPs, make you worse? You're saying that if Kareem had tanked in the 1st-round in 1988, that his legacy would have been better?

I have NEVER seen an argument that dumb. Some people say that Kobe's first three titles aren't as important because Shaq was the #1, but I've never met someone stupid enough to claim that Kobe would have been better off only winning 2 titles so that he'd have all the Finals MVPs to himself.

This is as idiotic as those claims that losing in the first round is better than losing in the Finals.






That logic IS used with Kareem. His titles ARE worth less than if he was the undisputed best player on all six teams, and everyone knows this.

Kareem was MVP six times, won six titles, record 19-time all-star, is the all-time scoring leader. If Finals MVP didn't matter, it would be KAREEM, not Jordan, who would be listed as the indisputable GOAT.

Instead, people honestly argue whether Magic or Kareem was better. If being the best player on your championship team didn't matter, then Kareem would win that argument in a landslide and there wouldn't be a discussion.

These are the indisputable top-5 players

Jordan: 5 MVPs and 6 Finals MVPs
Kareem: 6 MVPs and 2 Finals MVPs
Magic: 3 MVPs and 3 Finals MVPs
Lebron: 4 MVPs and 3 Finals MVPs


The fifth is very arguable - might be Wilt or Hakeem or Duncan...maybe an outside argument for Shaq or Bird for some people.

Kareem clearly belongs in that top indisputable group even with only 2 Finals MVPs. None one else has 6 MVPs, no one else is the all-time scoring leader. If he retired at 38 so that Magic/Worthy weren't able to help carry him to his last two titles, would he still be ranked the same? Of course he would. Those last two titles are a very small part of his legacy, because he was clearly a sidekick by that point. His 6 MVPs and 2 Finals MVPs and four titles before then had already cemented his legacy.


If Finals MVP doesn't matter, then why doesn't everyone make a big deal about 3-time champion Wade (1 Finals MVP) and 4-time champion Tony Parker (1 Finals MVP) and 6-time champion Pippen (0 Finals MVP) and 8-time champion Havlicek (1 Finals MVP) and 10-time champion Sam Jones? Why don't their titles get them into the discussion with the others?






Whose logic? NO ONE I've ever met says that Finals MVPs are the sole measure with which to rank players. It would be stupid to say that.

Kareem has 6 MVP awards, Duncan has 2. Kareem is the all-time scoring leader, Duncan ain't even top-10. There are plenty of other reasons to rank Kareem ahead of Duncan - you don't look at Finals MVPs alone and claim that a difference of "1" therefore determines everything.

You made up some false bullshyt argument in your head and then created an entire thread to yell at it.

Duncan isn't even top 10 :dead:

You're a moron and your Kobe hatred is transparent. That's why your logic is all over the place and changing ever five seconds.

Tim Duncan has way more Rings and Finals MVPs than Wilt Chamberlain yet TD isnt top 10 but Wilt is. So are you really using your own criteria (as you stated, rings, mvps, Finals MVPs) to judge players or are you just moving your logic around every 6 seconds to accommodate for who you wanna prop up and who you don't :dead: And before you say otherwise, everyone considers Wilt top 10 with his struggle 2 rings having ass. I don't even like Tim Duncan either. I'm just poking holes in your logic.

If Kobe won 6 MVPs & 6 Finals but only won 2 Finals MVPs nikkas would be in here saying Gasol was the real leader on those Lakers teams :umad: (which y'all already say now) but with Kareem it's but but but it's different :sadbron:

arguments like these were all created to defend the honor of :mjgrin:

no matter what, nikkas will always point to 6 for 6 in the finals, 6 finals mvps...its the standard :manny:

so no matter how many rings and final appearances Lebron grabs they gone :camby: him for that finals record and he bet not let Kyrie get an mvp
Kobe got :camby: cause Shaq got them first 3 finals mvps

whoever comes from the throne gotta get pass them :mjpls: standards. Is what it is

I'm not sure I understand the reason for this thread, but yeah in basketball MJ set the standard, anyone who wants to come to the throne has to at least meet or surpass it. It's fukked up in a sense because it's so ridiculously high (6/6, 6 FMVPs) but it is what it is.

So you/y'all saying if Wade won a FMVP next to Bron or if Kyrie won last year or in the future, it wouldnt be used as a knock against LeBron?

I'm a Bron hater myself (even though I easily admit he's a GOAT-level player,) but in these two particular cases I wouldn't hold that against him. Whoever watches the games (and watched those Finals) knows damn well those titles aren't won without Bron playing at extra-elite level. Maybe it just so happens that Wade or Kyrie make big plays at decisive moments, but I would assume that's Bron on his facilitator mode, which is just as deadly.

:what: YOU MAKE NO SENSE.

BRON WILL NEVER WIN 6 RINGS
AND HAS A SUB .500 FINALS RECORD.

MJ DOESNT NEED PROTECTION FROM THAT nikka.
:devil:
:evil:

:jbhmm: I said Michael is the standard and Lebron will always be :camby:'d cause of his finals record...what doesn't make sense about that?

So you are one of those its better to lose in the 1st round than in the finals ass nikkas:deadrose:

No. I'm a basic math nikka.

Is it better to shoot 3 for 3 or 3 for 7? I'll wait :mjgrin:

If what you said made sense, then Magic is the GOAT for making it to 9 Championships and winning 5 of them whereas Jordan could only make it to 6.....RIGHT? Why did we not use that argument with Magic and only choose to do so after LeBron started losing more than he won? :mjgrin:

MJ is 6 for 6 in finals...but going by logic he's 6 for 15 in winning chips. The coli has spoken you don't get credit for losing in the 1st round as opposed to the finals:mjlol: Nobody wants to answer how many rings the goat had at Brons age:francis:

Curry should have won FMVP in 2015. 26/5/6 there's only been like 2-3 guys in NBA history to put up those kind of numbers on the winning team and not win it. The media was hell bent on being on LeBron getting it that year so it fukked him over to prove a point

no but being the best player with the best performance in an nba finals win means a little bit something more legacy wise or comparing greats.

it's the difference between the robert horry's and the dirk nowitzki's
