View Full Version : Imagine beating a 73 win team, also doing it this way:

How much impact can one man really have?
League had to let Durant join these 73 win guys so they could block that man, while others had to go beat Stockton and Malone in a watered down league.
We are so lucky to be able to witness the GOAT doing these types of things.

Well I know Durant also faced this 73-win team but let a 3-1 lead slip away only to join the next season. Snakes gon' snake.
LBJ and Durant vs 73-win Warriors
LBJ: 30-11-9 on 49% fg, 37% 3p with 2.6 spg and 2.3 bpg
KD: 30-8-3 on 42% fg, 29% 3p, with 1.7 spg and 1.7 bpg
Well wait a minute, not only did LeBron beat all players in all statistical categories in the Finals he also beat Durant :roll:

Jordan''s 41 ppg was a record and therefore we know it's a goat achievement, whereas lebron leading 5 categories is no less arbitrary than boosting MJ for winning the Finals with a 20 ppg margin over his 2nd option (goat load), versus lebron's 3 ppg over kyrie (equal load)

Imagine beating a team that was already down 3-1 in the series before and then you are down 3-1 and you proceed to get there star Forward suspended and then the starting center goes down and then your so called #2 option outplays the unanimous league mvp and hit the game winner in his face creating his own shot in game 7 with 1 minute in the game. Anyone would win that.
I'd like to know
How did Lebron James lose to a Career Loser in Dwight Howard with HCA while having a 4x DPOY on his squad.

That was 5 years before Lebron got his 3rd ring. Know what MJ was doing 5 years before his 3rd ring? He was getting swept in the first round.

Lebron should be knocked for needing 7 games despite unprecedented help, such as a sidekick that outplayed the MVP, or a 6th straight season as the preseason favorite, or the only team in the league with 3 franchise players on 1 team, compared to 1 for Curry (franchise players are elite producers that were asked to build a lottery team from scratch), and also a teammate hitting an isolation, unassisted winner (it's rare for sidekicks to be the "closer").
People don't seem to understand that Lebron had the favored roster in 2016 by virtue of preseason favorite status and the only team with 3 franchise players on 1 team, so he should be knocked for falling to underdog or outright losing with these favorites all 6 years (except the Allen miracle).. His skillset and brand of ball clearly underperforms favored talent by virtue of starting with the preseason favorite and then falling to underdog or losing for 6 straight years (except the Allen miracle).
But carry-on believing the fraud.. The reality is that when Lebron won his 4 Finals, he always had an equal-scoring partner to attract equal defensive attention, so he never defeated maximum defensive attention (carrying the scoring load on championship level) like Curry, Jordan, and Kobe did... These guys could carry the scoring load because they had expert jumpshooting skill and could get 40 while the ball moves, so they had sufficient brand of ball to beat top teams when carrying the scoring load..
Otoh, Lebron lacks sufficient brand at high scoring levels (too ball-dominant), so he loses to injured, 1-star Orlando Magic as -700 favorite.. Since he can't carry the scoring load against top teams, he needs all-time scoring help and equal-scoring partners like Kyrie, Wade, and AD...
Everyone complains about Mo's 18 on 38% against the Magic, but MJ always won with that - Lebron simply lacked the brand of ball at 38 ppg to beat top teams, so he never beat a top 5 SRS team with weak scoring & efficiency from a sidekick (never carried weak help over top teams).. Btw, in addition to Mo's 18 on 38%, the Cavs also had the #3 defense (better than the 1st three-peat Bulls).

Iverson and Lebron both scored more than Kobe, but everyone knows that they sacrifice brand of ball and winning for personal stats - the "bron-ball" skillset simply produces weak teams and perennial losers - not capable of producing great teams like Kobe, or winning with less like Kobe (winning with a sidekick that's worse than Love or Bosh)

Every "star" in history that has any material sample of Finals (3+) will exceed Pippen's best gamescore - even 23-year old Kobe was exceeding Pippen's best gamescore in 2002, while 22 and 23-year old Lebron wet the bed against the champs (08' Celtics and 07' Spurs).
Kobe was simply better at 22 and 23 years old, while also outplaying Lebron against common opponents like the 08' Celtics, 10' Celtics, 11' Mavs, or 07/18 Spurs... And of course Kobe's skillset can produce dynasties/higher team ceilings and win with less (a sidekick that was worse than Love/Bosh).

Lebron should be knocked for needing 7 games in the 16' Finals despite clear-cut, unprecedented help:
1) a sidekick that outplayed the MVP
2) 6th straight season as the preseason favorite
3) the only team with 3 franchise players, compared to 1 for Curry (franchise players are elite producers that were asked to build a lottery team from scratch)
4) teammate hitting an isolation, unassisted winner (it's rare for sidekicks to be the "closer")
Lebron had the favored roster in 2016 with 3 franchise players and preseason favorite status for the 6th straight year, so he should be knocked for falling to underdog or losing with these favorites all 6 years (except the Allen miracle).. It's an underperformance of favored talent to start as the preseason favorite and then fall to underdog or loser for 6 straight years (except the Allen miracle).. It's also fraud because falling to underdog creates the misperception of an "upset" later on, smh.
Furthermore, the only reason Lebron needed 7 games is because he wet the bed with 24 ppg and 6 TO's thru 4 games to get a 1-3 deficit... This is similar to the 13' Finals where he averaged 16 on 39% thru 3 games and 23 on 43 % thru 6, thereby needing a teammate to force Game 7.
But carry-on believing the fraud.. When Lebron won his 4 Finals, he always had an equal-scoring partner to attract equal defensive attention, so he never defeated maximum defensive attention (carrying the scoring load on championship level) like Curry, Jordan, and Kobe did...
