[And1AllDay]

One man.
One LeBron "LONG BOI" James...LBJ = LongBron James

Just imagine it, 5 all stars teamed up to beat LeBron and a 25 win pace lottery team. (3-7 w/o James).

well at the time it was 2 stars vs 3 since draymond was unfairly suspended

so they got 4 just in case lebron called silver again

then lebron ran off kyrie and left town to avoid him leading boston past his cavs and totally embarassing him.

then ultimately cousins inquired about joining lebron in LA and magic said no




so here we are

WOW AMAZING

So you mean to tell me Kyrie did ALL of that and LeBron STILL had more

points
rebounds
assists
steals
blocks

wow amazing player LeBron is

[kennethgriffen]

Oh wow Draymond was suspended for all 7 games I didnt know that!!!!1! Wow is this new information?

Does anyone know why Draymond was suspended for all 7 games?


no but game 5 at home was basically what they worked for all season and without being able to compete for that game and basically hand it to cleveland meant that those 73 wins were meaningless since cleveland would obviously win game 6 at home and make it a 1 game winner take all

then anything can happen


the reason they make it a 7 game series is because flukes happen and they want the best team to win in the end. when you take away the series formula and just stretch to to a 1 game elimination anything can happen


and kyrie hit the biggest shot in finals history ( only comparable to ray allens bail out for lebron back in 2013 )


so the fluke did take place and the wrong team won due to a "called in favor" to adam silver

[SouBeachTalents]

Kenny's still very upset about 2016 :(

if scoring 40+ meant an automatic win on the road just because lebron scored 40+ and won at home.... then he would have given up chasing assists a long time ago



lebron scored 50 in the finals and lost. nothings guaranteed


what is nearly guaranteed is the warriors play better in game 5 and probably win the series if they had draymond

field goal percentage is meaningless. its about production and as far as shooting guards go kobe is the most efficient one of all time ( aside from maybe james harden if you count him as a shooting guard and don't discredit him for todays rules )

Kobe was a poor 3PT shooter for a lot of his career.

In 2002 he only hit 33 3s all season and it came at a 25% clip :roll:


kobe shot 34% threes up until his achilles injury

thats not considered poor


if kobe took 100 threes at 34% and jordan took 100 two's at 49%


guess whos scoring more points

I said for a lot of his career, not all of it. Are you going to argue he was a good 3PT shooter during the Lakers 3Peat years? :roll:

a lot of kobes career is till age 23?



back then the 3 ball wasn't a big thing... the triangle was about getting open mid range shots and cuts to the basket

3 of those rings you’re so fond of.

Additionally, Kobe didn’t have a single season shooting above 32.9% from 3 after 2009. And 32.9% isn’t very good.

i never said kobe dominated the spurs and kings with 3 point shooting


he dismantled them in every other way though



and i think maybe his shooting suffered later on because of this

0:11.0 L. James makes free throw 2 of 2 +1 93-89

Series over. Clutch GOD

Lol this makes it sound like he made 2 fts.

He LeBricked the first one and the 2nd one was literally irrelevant.

Kyrie won the game and the title for them it's that simple.

Making it a two possession game is irrelevant?


Good lord, you’re a complete moron.

[TheCorporation]

Brick after brick sounds like the story of almost every finals game Kobe ever played.

+1 Kobe is a horrible inefficient player. His BEST season ever, he shot .469% FG...His BEST. Not worst. BEST. Aside from LeBron's rookie year he has shot above .469 every. single. year.

Recap:

Season above .460

Kobe: zero
LeBron: every. single. year. (aside from rookie season)

This is why Kyrie left :lol

Kyrie Irving had the biggest game of his post season life. Dropped 41 points on the 73-win Warriors! LeBron still had a better game :lol

[TheCorporation]

List Kobe's 35 point triple doubles in the Finals

Kobe literally has zero triple doubles in the entire post season, let alone Finals. He is a complete joke of a player :lol

12be Bryant :lol

[TheCorporation]

The craziest part is LeBron James literally lead every single player in every single category. No one can (intelligently) say anything bad because LeBron James literally did everything more than everyone. Points. Rebounds. Assists. Blocks. Steals.

And yet, here we are with haters attempting to spew complete bullshit when they should be humble and say. "It was an amazing series win. LeBron is a legend." But, their love for Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant is so strong that they simply cannot recite unbiased facts such as the aforementioned suggestions. Hating on LeBron for his 2016 Finals in any way, shape, or form should be considered a true mental illness.

And the game winning block, too? Are you guys kidding me...

i proved his stats were garbage time stat padding. why do you keep pushing a false narrative thats been debunked

[34-24 Footwork]

SouthBeachtalents talks about Kobe like it's 2013. Shits crazy. Kobe literally ruined this dude.


Ditto for RRR3. It's ALL Kobe talk from them and they're DEAD SERIOUS. What did Kobe do to them?

[Walk on Water]

Why would 5 all stars need to join forces to beat a team that won

[ImKobe]

I'm not saying Kyrie had a better series but how do u get that LeBron had a better game of that pic?

That was the narrative at the time. Irving got no credit for Game 6 and the way he closed it out with like 10 straight points in the 4th to put the game away. His game-winner was less appreciated than Lebron's block.

Down 1 - 3, Irving averaged 30 ppg on 52/53/100 shooting with 1.7 stls 1.3 blks, but the whole narrative was that Lebron brought them back and beat a 73-win team, not that his entire team played their ass off in key moments to clutch out those wins.

CUTE!

Down 1 - 3 Bron.

36/12/10 3 stls 3 blks 50/42/73 splits.

Great 2nd fiddle Kyrie, nothing to be ashamed of. It was the Bron show though don't get it twisted

[Bronbron23]

This isn't even true though. 5 guys didn't join forces to beat LeBron. Three of them were drafted there lol. Durant is the only one who you could say joined forces to beat bron and it was certainly a bish ass move.

This would all be irrelevant had Kyrie not hit a top 2 biggest shot in the history of the sport of basketball (the other being Ray Allen's shot).

Coincidentally they both absolutely bailed out LeGOAT's legacy :biggums:

[Rocket]

We need to have disclaimers on these stupid Lebron threads that do not mention him in the title so the people who are not obsessed with either loving or hating him can simply avoid them. This forum desperately needs a Lebron subsection so these stupid threads can be moved there.

"Leading everyone in everything" and haters are still trying so hard to bash LeBron.

Just imagine it, if I told you pre 2016 NBA Finals, "LeBron is gonna lead every single player in every basketball metric: points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks and I mean every player in the entire series, both teams, and will be down 3-1 and come back to play the best 3 game stretch in NBA history and in game 7 he will have a 27-11-11-3-2 triple double with a game winning block and game iceing free throw but people will still try to hate" you wouldn't believe me.

The warriors never scored again after Kyrie's shot and Lebron's freethrow. So it's safe to say that even if Kyrie's shot didn't happen. The cavs would still be up thanks to the block and free throw.
