Someone give me that gif of the TOSB

Lebron puts up 37 points

Kobe puts up 6/24

[dubeta]

Can we post Kobe's Game 7 highlights as a point of comparison?


Would really like to see how each player performs under pressure

[DoctorP]

Good stuff. Peak Bran.

[WayOfWade]

Aw yes, Heat LeBron, much better than the Cleveland LeBron we are seeing now. Product of Riley

[ballinhun8]

Rashard Lewis and Juwan Howard on the bench? All those all-stars??

Yeah, it's not like there's 3 HOFers and like 40 combined all-star appearances on that list or anything.

Lebron was amazing for sure though. Wade was also great with 21/10 on 52% with 2 blocks. Battier had 18/4 on a stellar 6/8 from 3. Chalmers hit some big shots as well. Bosh was quiet but he played GREAT defense and had 7 boards.

48/22 on 52% combined for Lebron and Wade. :bowdown:

LOL at betas that need a 7th game... :yaohappy:

Lebron choked and missed the walk-off attempt - he needed Ray Allen to save him:

Naturally, Jordan MADE his walk-off attempt in his first meeting against Duncan/Popovich to send the game into overtime:

After hitting the walk-off, MJ dominated overtime, including 2 dunks over Duncan:

Brain fart. 58/22 and Lebron with the dagger.

That series was such an emotional roller coaster it's wreaking havoc with my math. :cheers:

And of course 3ball has to chime with his nonsense :rolleyes:

Show me where a player was required to:


1) score at least 10 more ppg than his 2nd option for every playoff series (except two, where MJ scored 8 ppg and 5 ppg more)

2) lead his team in passing by assisting on the highest proportion of teammate FG's (MJ led his team in assist percentage for both 3-peats (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showpost.php?p=11713121&postcount=49))

3) AND play goat-level defense.

In the 2006 playoffs Wade outscored Shaq by 10 ppg, led his team in assists per game and assisted on the highest % of his teammate's field goals, and was also his team's top perimeter defender.

[JebronLames]

Most people only notice his scoring in this game, but Lebron started the game off by getting his teammates involved. This led to good ball movement and open looks for shooters. Miller and Ray Allen were chucking bricks that game, so they put in battier, who was on that night. This led to battier being in the game in the 4th quarter where he hit 2 big threes. And Lebron was also on tony Parker for most of the game, and played great defense on him. He also had to work hard on the boards since the heat were undersized.

He had to do everything, and what he did on the heat was very underrated. No other perimeter player in history wins in 2012 or 2013 with those teams.

Heck no perimeter player even takes those Heat teams to the finals from 2011-2014, and definitely not with the Cavs last year.

Are you guys stupid?.. Can you read?... You guys listed ONE playoff series for each guy.

I said to show me a player that did what MJ did:


1) scored at least 10 more ppg than his 2nd option for every playoff series (except two, where MJ scored 8 ppg and 5 ppg more).

2) lead his team in passing by assisting on the highest proportion of teammate FG's (MJ led his team in assist percentage for both 3-peats (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showpost.php?p=11713121&postcount=49))

I said 2006 playoffs. Since when does that mean one series? The playoffs means EVERY SERIES. I don't know how you could have taken that any other way.

FOR HIS CAREER, NOT JUST ONE PLAYOFF RUN

MJ scored at least 10 ppg more than his 2nd option in every series for his entire career (except two, when he scored 8 ppg and 5 ppg more)

Show me another player that did this.

Kobe 09

First round: + 9.0 ppg over 2nd, leader in apg
2nd: + 8.8 ppg, apg leader
WCF: + 16.5 ppg, apg leader
Finals: + 13.8 ppg, apg leader

MJ had 2 series with an exception (only +8 and +5 ppg) Kobe does too but his are closer to 10.

Playoffs: +11.9 ppg, +3.0 apg

Defense: led team in spg, 3rd in blocks (0.9 bpg)

You can do this for the other players I mentioned as well.

No perimeter player went off for an entire series for Kobe, looking at the WCF for example here are the following guards FG%: Smith .387, Billups .397, Jones .379, and Anthony who Kobe gaurded as well .407 and .250 from 3.

Kobe also averaged about half Shaqs points from the 2000-2002 Finals

[QUOTE=sdot_thadon]i

[Blue&Orange]

This got to be the most epic, unbelievable display of saggin off defense.


Between taking Duncan out because he was afraid of Bosh that never hit a gamewinner in his life, not adjusting his defense when Lebron once in a lifetime was hitting jumpers, and keep playing Manu and even sitting Parker and give the team to Manu when he was absolute garbage, Pop got to take a lot of blame for that finals loss.
