#1 spot on the way


GOAT

[ArbitraryWater]

LeBron is the only player in NBA history to be top 5 all-time in playoff points AND assists.

[warriorfan]

* in a historically weak eastern conference

[Spaulding]

* in a historically weak eastern conference

Don't be mad.

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Awesome milestone, but I can't help but point out how terrible the conference he plays in.

Like, this Atlanta Hawks team? Completely void of heart. Your typical regular-season warrior, and the type of team LeBron basically ALWAYS goes thru in the playoffs.

[Meticode]

Doesn't matter, got to get a ring for Cleveland.

[BlazerRed]

I'm not trying to take away the achievement completely, but what people have said about his conference is kind of true. Think about the playoffs series he has had on the way to the finals the past 5-6 years. Absolutely atrocious opponents until the finals every year. Never once has he had to play an opponent on the level of this years Spurs or Thunder, or even the Clippers before Blake and CP3's injury.

[Lebron23]

Kobe struggled against the Eastern Conference Teams in the NBA Finals.

25 ppg on 41 FG%

Didnt we get through this with you, when Shuttlesworth showed you statistical data that the East has been superior defensively, and Kobe performed worse against it?

Why the fall back? :(

Do you ever stop hating on the dude?
Seriously it's pathetic.

The East is superior to the West defensively in the past, so that debunks your argument already.
And Lebron has better averages against both the East and West in both the RS and PO than Kobe, whom is higher than him on the list. So clearly conference doesn't matter.
Kareem played in a hilariously weak conference.
Are you going to fault either of them?

Great teams make you play on both ends. Not one.

Look at the Knicks 2 or 3 years ago. Top 3 in DRTG and LeBron/Miami made them look inept as f*ck. :oldlol:

BTW, I never mentioned Kobe, not sure why you brought him up? :confusedshrug:

edit: that knicks team was actually circa 2012... time flies gawd damn.

because Kobe is the scoring superstar of the West, last decade...

so you're telling me Kareem, Shaq, Kobe, etc. all wasted more energy defensively?

This entire theory is bullshit.. LeBron is playing harder than most of those ever did right now, on that end (again, ala '09-'13).

I'm telling you working on BOTH ends makes a pretty significant difference.

There's no way he averages the same and/or greater numbers on BETTER efficiency out West against BETTER teams as a whole.

Kobe is irrelevant. Lets stick with LeBron here.

No... lets actually go there.

This is about the milestone of being one of the 5 most points scored players in NBA history (playoffs).

You bring up that the teams he faced were weaker, so it diminishes the feat compared to the ones that DIDNT face that weaker competition.

So, did those other guys waste more energy or not defensively?

Of course not... arguing on thin ice.

Bron probably averages better numbers in the West, considering, well, thats what he actually does for the regular season splits.... where is Kobe (the other top 5 guy from his era), has historically had more difficulties against the East.

Your theory isnt backed up by evidence, nor does it make sense on a technical level, since hes not coasting anymore defensively than a Shaq, Kobe, or second half of career Kareem.... gimme a breakkkkkk.

[k0kakw0rld]

Doesn't matter, got to get a ring for Cleveland.
so why are we celebrating Kobe bryant? He done most of his damage during the regular season. He got carried most of the time to championships by his teammates in the playoffs. :confusedshrug:

Duncan could pass him tomorrow. You gonna make a thread for that too?


Oh, and Duncan is better. And GOAT at what for bron?

Whatever. Friday. Big difference.


Duncan will be like what? 15 pts behind? He can't pass him?


Jeez your nut hugging knows no boundaries.

Thank you for owning that guy. I might visit Chicago and Boston this year. Just got a new passport yesterday. And shove a Mcdonald Burger inside his mouth.

Imagine if he had to play Clips in the first round or OKC in the 2nd round like SAS last and this year. Then he might not be getting to 5 straight Finals and racking up those points.

You can spit out all the stats you like but it's all fool's gold. Are you really going to sit here and tell me that overall Lebron has played equal quality opposition as his finals opponent in the last 5-6 years? :coleman:

Ignore all facts because they don't suit you agenda.
Take the L and move on, dude.

[Bankaii]

Imagine if he had to play Clips in the first round or OKC in the 2nd round like SAS last and this year. Then he might not be getting to 5 straight Finals and racking up those points.
Or if he had to play a depleted Memphis team with an average age of 40.

What are you even talking about right now? :oldlol:

Honestly I feel like I'm reading posts from a Taylor Swift superfan. No logic nor sense of reality.

You keep bringing up Kobe but WHY? Does Kobe historically beasting on the Spurs, arguably the best franchise this past decade, mean Kobe > LeBron? They're different scorers and Kobe has always been less efficient. Apples and oranges and therefor an irrelevant comparison.

Wake up dude.

[tpols]

Imagine if he had to play Clips in the first round or OKC in the 2nd round like SAS last and this year. Then he might not be getting to 5 straight Finals and racking up those points.

yup.. its easy to pad totals when you get a free 2-3 rounds to start.

Its amazing how lopsided these conferences have been for the better part of two decades.

I haven't seen anything like it in any other sport.

[warriorfan]

jameer with the meltdown post x3

This forum is a dumpster fire. Just appreciate greatness, you autistic shits.

[NBAGOAT]

there's a disparity but people are making it seem like it's early 2000's East bad. I agree with what someone said earlier 09-12 was decent. There's a shitload of mediocre teams in the East this year while the West had two all time great teams and two great teams but the fact that their 8th seed was comparable to the 5th seed in the West helps some.

[Lebron23]

One of the best scorers of all time.

[ballinhun8]

One of the best scorers of all time.




Honestly speaking, would you actually swallow the whole load if he asked you to?



Something tells me you would jump at the opportunity to obey your king.

[retaxis]

Lebron is good player

Not as good as Jordan but no one is

Lebron had some great rivalries with Bulls, Celtics and pacers over the years too

[ballinhun8]

You are a homosexual. Get the F*ck out of this thread fakkit!!!



So that's a yes? :roll: :roll: :roll:


It's ok, I'd say 85% of the posters here would agree that you would do that. Even the hardcore lebron trolls like simon look at you and say "damn, dudes got issues".

[ballinhun8]

Why are you so angry all the time? Go outside, and smell the breath of fresh air.



Ok. I'll stop destroying you for now. Obviously you can't handle it. Must be the lack of english learning you have yet to develop.


But hey, one of simon's alts laughed with you. That's a step in the right direction.

Jeez your nut hugging knows no boundaries.

No, LeBron plays the next game before Duncan, you still didn't catch that? Morons gonna moron.

Plus last time Duncan scored double digits was a year ago, you'd become a Millionaire right now for thinking Duncan could score 20 points, you moron.

[ArbitraryWater]

This forum is a dumpster fire. Just appreciate greatness, you autistic shits.

Seriously.. guys fronting with 'valid criticism' um yeah right.. shockingly bad grasp for Basketball in these dudes. Can't see Greatness right in front of them.

I didn't catch that because I don't kbow the schedule?


I'd become a millionaire for thinking he would score 20? Lol stop going overboard because we don't all praise your reason for living. It'll be OK knowslobber.



Why is Cleveland playing 3 games before SA plays 2. No one cares about the East. Damn NBA. This is why people don't care anymore.

[Bandito]

Wow Kobe's retired, the thread is not even about him. Still relevant.

The fact you're assuming Duncan could score 20 points and go as far as to make a point about it, tells me just enough how retarded you are. Stop melting down, too.
