Why make fun of Lebron

[robby712]

It seems strange for me that after a lot of years in the NBA the GSW players don't know how Lebron works. Leave him be, let him settle and stay calm, don't disturb him and he gets into that chill and complacent mode, like game 6 last year, game 5 of the 2014 Finals. Let him be his playful self.

But instead of that, they made fun of him, ridiculed him and insulted his greatness. His best performances come when his back is against the wall and when he is criticized, especially by someone who he feels is inferior to him. We had both of those situations last night. The same happened in 2012 against the Celtics, in game 7 of the 2013 Finals and in rare occasions during the regular season or playoffs when someone got on his nerves, either a fan or a player, like Pierce saying he can guard him before LBJ dropping 49 against the Nets.

If he could actually have had this mentality all his career, I believe he would have given MJ a run for his money. Cut the dance, the handshakes and the bullshit. Just go for the kill. I strongly believe that if he had went to Detroit or Miami in the 2003 draft, he would not have been such a spoiled child. His career suffered because he stayed home.

As fans why do we give a shit what GSW wants? If anything, we WANT to see LBJ perform with his back against the wall. Last nights game was the most exiting game of the series. This is EXACTLY what lebron SHOULD be doing, except it shouldn't take a finals performance of a lifetime in kyrie to motivate him. Curry would be doing the same damn thing as what Klay, Kyrie, and Bron were doing if he wasn't hurt. This is what is SUPPOSE to happen in the finals. It's what we pay to see.

GSW are an extremely confident team and for good reason.
You also want to beat your competition at full power, that's what champions strive for.
So if I can motivate my opponent, I should, because then I can prove he's no match for me at his full capacity or lose with dignity and honor.

Someone that has led their team to only 2 championships and is about to 3-peat lose in the finals is hardly top 3 material. Please try again. :lol

Mindsets of this current era are shameless. They would rather someone not be 100% and get the win than face someone at 100% and win with dignity.

All this talk last year about how if the Cavs were at 100%, they would have beaten GSW no problem.

Well now they are at 100% and will lose. What's the new excuse now? That lebron isn't shooting good? He shot just fine last night. He put together the most expensive team in the league. No excuses and yet some kid is talking about how if he wins on this stacked team that he's better than MJ. Bran stans are so dumb.
