It's going to be LeBron's world after he eliminates Curry and the Warriors in the NBA Finals. But before we talk about the NBA Finals let's see them beat a very good OKC Thunder Team. The Current Thunder team ain't good as the 2012 OKC Thunder, but they are going to be the toughest opponent for the Warriors in their playoffs run in the last 2 years.

Warriors defeated some injured teams, Blazers, and teams lacking chemistry in the post season.

He was a really good sidekick and second option to Wade that year

Very true.

[fiddy]

against some pretty good defensive teams

:yaohappy:
The Knicks? Washed up Celtics? OKC?

[TheMarkMadsen]

His best playoff run came during a shortened season.

Not surprised.

[ArbitraryWater]

amazing post-season.. unlike anything Kobe ever managed.

[Young X]

I've said it before but this was maybe the most crucial playoff run/year for a single player ever.

It might've been the biggest difference maker for a single player.

Even more so than Dirk the year before or Jordan in '91 or Hakeem in '94 because of the hate he was getting.

This changed everything, without this championship, he would've been held in much lower regard.

The meltdown continues :roll:

He put up much better numbers in the 2009 NBA playoffs, but no NBA teams in history are going to win an NBA title if Mo Williams was your 2nd scoring option.

Those teams were better than any of the teams that the Warriors defeated in the playoffs.

:hammerhead:

The 2012 Oklahoma City Thunder were better than these NBA Teams. 2012 Miami Heat would literally destroy these pathetic competitions/opponents.

I guess same could be said about Kobe's 2001 postseason run ( the one always referred to as his greatest) considering he only played 6 more reg. season games than James?

edit

[TheMarkMadsen]

I guess same could be said about Kobe's 2001 postseason run ( the one always referred to as his greatest) considering he only played 3 more reg. season games than James?

Did I say anything about how many games he played? It was a lockout, shortened season.

99* & 12*

game 6 against boston was just insane

Why bring it up as a bad thing then if you're not referring to how many games were played that season?

[TheMarkMadsen]

Lock out seasons have a lot more differences from normal seasons than just games played

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

You are so full of shit...if the Lakers and Kobe won in 99 or 12 you sure as hell know you wouldn't be putting any asterisk up for him.

[eliteballer]

Half the Knicks team was injured in the playoffs.

The Celtics were old. Real old.

Indiana and OKC were just young green teams and LeBron was on a super team.

Lockout shortened season.

Not that impressive.

[TheMarkMadsen]

Oh wow you must know me so well :wtf: :rolleyes:

I guarantee that if the Lakers won in 99 and 4pted there would always be that argument of, "Well, they did win one of those in a lockout season" when compared to the other great teams and especially Russell's Celtics.

And it would be a good argument and something you would have to mention when talking about their 4 peat

Especially in 99, that year was just awful. Probably the worst regular season basketball of the modern era

LEBRON.. 2012M PLAYOFFS:. 37.8 pts.. 7.2 ast.. 4.5 tov
JORDAN CAREER PLAYOFFS:. 43.3 pts.. 7.4 ast.. 4.0 tov

Like????

Like????


Are you serious :oldlol: :oldlol:

[Hey Yo]

Are you serious :oldlol: :oldlol:
You brought it up, so explain why.

Why was James' numbers so great due to the shortened season? How did he have an advantage over the other players that made the postseason in 2012?

So you don't see any difference between lockout seasons and regular seasons than just the amount of games played..

Just unbelievable

[Hey Yo]

No, Please educate me.

Why was James' numbers so great due to the shortened season? How did he have an advantage over the other players that made the postseason in 2012?

[TheMarkMadsen]

You make such huge leaps, half the things you ask are thing I never claimed or even mentioned

There are some major differences other than games played (which are still a huge difference) and it's pretty unbelievable that somebody who has supposedly followed the nba through multiple lockouts can't see the differences..

[Smoke117]

There were only 16 games cut off the 2012 season so it can hardly be considered an asterisk season. :rolleyes: I'd probably consider 99 an asterisk season though as half the season was missed.
