The funny thing is that Kobe doesn't even have 5 good Finals games, let alone been the best player in 5 Finals series :lol

Nice troll attempt



LeBron WAS EASILY the best player in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016



In fact, he has a stronger argument than Jordan (who was the best player in 1991, 1992, 1993, 1997, and 1998)

How does he have a "stronger" argument when you just listed Jordan being the best in 5 series? He was also the best in 96 to make 6, only other person who has a case for that series and played both sides of the ball impactfually was Payton but he came on too late

Unless you're running with that Rodman quote which is Lol if so, and if you are then I'll just say Igoudala was the best in 2015 as well for similar reasons

Also, 14 wasn't even a series. Lebron was the best up to Game 2 but for games 3-5 Kawhi was better. Here are the numbers for games 3-5

Bron
27ppg, 8rpg, 5apg, 2 stl, 1blk, 4tov on 56%FG and 43% from the 3. B-Ref Gamescore of 21.7 GSC

Kawhi
24ppg, 9rpg, 2apg, 2stl, 2blk, 2tov on 69% FG and 54% from the 3. B-Ref Gamescore of 23.8 GSC

Kawhi also went 3-0 in those games and I don't think I need to mention that he was much better than Lebron defensively that series as well

Additionally, even if you do still consider Bron having the better series for whatever reason, it is by no means "easily" better. Kawhi definitely has a case which makes it debatable. Which means Bron was the best in 4, arguably 5. That is NOT a "stronger case" than Jordan who, even if you don't consider him the best in 96, was clearly the best for the other years you yourself listed

So Jordan has the strongest case. Which in turn makes your OP of saying "maybe" Jordan a joke in hindsight, when even removing 96 leaves Jordan at 5 by your own words whereas Bron just arguably has 5 if you consider him the best in 14.

You basically picked Kawhi's 3 best games of the Finals, where he was equal to LeBron at best, and now you wanna say Kawhi > LeBron in 2014?? :roll: :roll:




Looking at the total series, LeBron was EASILY better than Kawhi and you know it.

Why so sad? The league still gifted him 3*** rings. Bran stans are such emotional lesbians, they never seem to be happy.

Why did Kawhi get the ring and the finals MVP then? Had no cramps either.

Damn you comeback after some time away and get straight up baked by LostCause in your own thread.

Lebron was never the best player in 5 finals, not even close.

2007 it was Parker
2011 it was Dirk or Wade
2012 it was Durant (31 ppg on 55% FG to Lebrons 29 ppg on 47%)
2014 it was Kawhi (finals mvp)
2015 it was Curry or Iggy (finals mvp)

So Lebron has maybe 1 finals as the best player.

:roll: Only an imbecile would say Durant was better than LeBron in 2012. Duncan was arguably only the best player in 2 of his 6 Finals, and none of his last 3-4

Which is better? 31 ppg on 55% FG or 29 ppg on 47% FG?

29/10/7 on 47% with superior defense > 31/6/2 on 55% with inferior defense.

During Miami's backdoor sweep

LeBron: 28/11/8 on 48%
Durant: 29/6/2 on 54%, averaged twice as many TO's than assists

LeBron was clearly better

Not really. Durant held down Lebron better than Lebron held down Durant.

Durant's numbers went up with Lebron on him.

You're an idiot but I wanna see you try to squirm out of this.
For 2012 you use contextless stats to say KD>Lebron, despite Lebron winning FMVP.
For 2014 and 2015 you use FMVP, even though Lebron had the better stats those two years.

Can you even explain this extreme inconsistency?

Conference. Anyone can put up good numbers in a bad conference. Put Lebron out West and he is out in round 1 each of those seasons.

I think he is going to own every turnover record known to man when its all said and done. He'll finally have the statistics to back up his title as
