IT was terrible in the playoffs compared to what he showed in his borderline MVP regular season. I remember teams were picking on him so bad defensively he was almost unplayable. Van Exel was also really bad in the playoffs with Shaq. Fisher pretty much always did his job. His ceiling and talent were lower but he simply executed better in a lesser...
Yes but that's not to say if he's facing them every year in a tougher conference that the same results will bear out. Basically you're saying he's still getting to the finals 9 times regardless of which conference, and I just don't see it. If the Lakers were relatively less tested on their way to the finals coming out of the west, they would be...
I'm talking about his level of help relative to the league he was in, not in comparison to Lebron. It's possible he doesn't win 5 out of 9 having to deal with Philly, Boston and Detroit if the Lakers were in the east.
Well yea he was like 3 inches shorter and 40 pounds lighter. Physics tell you that he's going to be able to stop and start quicker. You have to consider what they are respectively capable of doing at their size.
Calvin Johnson couldn't get out of his breaks as quickly as an Antonio Brown or Marvin Harrison. But nobody that was 6'5 240 could...
Jordan was faster out of the triple threat and to this day had a legendary first step. Lebrons speed is more momentum-based, a controlled freight train. You watch him in an open court setting where he starts off from one end and starts sprinting to the other. His first step isn't elite so he needs more screens and picks to shake off rhe defender.
I mean did Magic really have more help than Lebron? At the beginning of their careers sure but for the past 13 years? I wouldnt say so. Magic was still winning even after Kareem was done. And they both played in a weak conference for most of their careers. Magic was beating dynasty teams in the Finals though and won more than he lost. He packed 5...
I’m trying to remember what disaster you referring to with Thomas on the Celtics. Only remember a couple runs. That year he got hurt but they were in the conference finals and he missed the last few games of that series versus Cleveland and the other year they lost to the Hawks, I don’t remember being a particularly good team. Not expectations...
Eh... I don't know about that. The game tape shows when Lebron gets a head of steam he was faster. MJ didn't even really seem that fast in the open court eye test wise to me.
There's a big difference between a 40 yard dash on a football field and what speed you can reach dribbling a ball on a basketball court. Westbrook is probably also 0ne of...
Depends on how you define athleticism and what components of it you value more than others.
Who's more athletic? A 280-pound man with poor lateral movement, a 4.40 forty, and a 40" vertical or a 225-pound man with exceptional lateral movement, a 4.40 forty, and 40" vertical?
Musk is clearly sympathetic to Nazism, you can take out of that whatever you will.
**** Mao, me baiting idiots like you doesn’t mean I like him. I’m an anarchist, Mao sucked. You thought you had something there :(
Garnett and Duncan are technically better than Dirk @ everything except shooting yet all 3 had similar impact in their primes and Dirk has even beaten them H2H in the playoffs. Logic like that would tell us Gary Payton > Curry because all steph was really better than Payton at is scoring.
But the thing is Magic / Curry / Dirks offense was so...
Already addressed it.
Is Elon Musk a nazi?
Btw the whole conversation, same as always with you, is super retarded. Especially considering how you're a communist and per your own words, sympathetic to Mao.
????
How are you too dumb to remember this?
You then proceeded to spend time defending him and linking stuff from him :wtf: What else are we to conclude but that you think Nazism is a positive?
He was still elite in 2004 and 2005 yeah, but even then I recall his shot becoming more of a line drive because of his back, he didn't get the same lift and that caused the dip in efficiency.
Right now, I gotta say 7 days to die. Because of the new update, everything looks better, and there is new stuff to explore.
If anyone wants to play with us, you can join. We have our own private server that we rent from here. So no speed lags.
I know you're dumb and want to shape reality so you get a higher dopamin release, but no one cares and the only one acting like a nazi is you - same as I told you a couple months back.
Yeah, that too, he was still very elite in 04 an 05 though. But it's pretty crazy to say 06 and 07 T-Mac is on the same level as Lakers LeBron. Then again, dankok8 is the same guy giving us such insightful comments as these,
so I wouldn't take anything he says where LeBron is involved the least bit seriously.
Weird, given how you're on record as saying Magic was a ball dominator. But because the topic is about Lebron, you have to backtrack that take a little bit to push for Magic's superiority.
I know you're senile, but you already admitted Jack Posobiec was a Nazi and here you are desperately defending him and using him as a source. Pretty easy to conclude you're sympathetic to Nazism.
I would say he wasn't even the same guy after 2003. Even that year he was playing with back pain. His ppg and % went down while everyone else's shot up after the 2004 rule change. Imagine 2003 Tmac in 2006 when Kobe was going off for 35ppg and Iverson 33ppg.
Already told you that the problem with you and the rest of Antifa is that you took the whole nazi monikor and used it on everyone you didn't like. At the same time you kept talking about how Antifa doesn't exist, so in the eyes of the public you ended up as nothing but cowards trying to act as thought police. You're stuck there now and no one...
This is pretty weak framing even for a jabroni like yourself. But sure, if Elon isn't a nazi for linking this account, obivously neither am.
Your link to "Lexicat" proving this stuff doesn't even work anymore btw, was probably fake. https://x.com/1lexycat/status/1841706305159152034?s=46
I looked up this guy though since you have so much...
No it doesn't he was constantly playing in pain, which really affected his jumpshot and his scoring. Hence him having Lakers Westbrook level efficiency in 06 and 07. Like I said, after 05, not the same guy. 06 and 07 is not prime T-Mac.
That's the most likely scenario, peak Tmac and AD balling out in a wide open setting. But that's not gonna happen 3 times, per 3nutball's contention that he would 3peat.
