Intervention time for 3Ball

[RRR3]

3ball,

We’re all worried about your LeBron addiction. You simply can’t quit LeBron and it’s destroying your life. Your friends on ISH are here for you. We want you to go to rehab and get the help you need so you can start enjoying life again.

[KirbyPls]

RRR3, do you have any contact info on rehab centers and/or help lines?

I'm very concerned for him. His sudden reversal on the "bird-fed" theory is as bizarre as it is alarming.

1-800-QUITBRONNOW is a good quick way to get help. Of course, for a case as severe as 3ball, I would recommend outpatient treatment at one of the Detox centers for those suffering from LeBron Derangement Syndrome.

[StrongLurk]

Sadly giving him any attention just keeps the addiction going. The only way to help him is if everyone stops responding to his posts entirely.

That's exactly what im saying yet everyone still entertains his nonsense by replying to his threads

[rawimpact]

While I agree 3Ball is in need of intervention, someone who self-reportedly lives under the roof of his parents despite being in his late 20s should not be the one to head it. And speaking of heading, someone who's into trannys should require an intervention themself if anyone cared to help.

Although I am a homeowner, this sentence is so outdated considering the crazy amount of debt young people have from college and how shitty the job market has been the last 15 years compared to historic numbers.

I wouldn't be surprised if 40%-50% of people between the age of 22-30 live with their parents. This is what happens when the middle class job market has been eroded over the last 50 years AND the cost of healthcare/education have skyrocketed.

My father-in-law had like a 2.0 GPA graduating college in the 80's but landed a cushy job at a global, private software company making like 50K immediately...in the 80's (50k in the 80's is way more than 50K now). He's been at that same company every since and has made 6 figures plus elite benefits for 20 years while working 30-35 hours a week.

The young people coming into that company now have to have masters degrees, years worth of work experience, and come with tons of student loan debt.

[Axe]

Does he even lurk outside of the main forum?

[3ball]

Thanks guys for the concern but posting on basketball forums doesn't hurt me

My problems lie elsewhere

He’s an idiot who doesn’t understand the problems of capitalism. Best to ignore him.

3ball, I don’t care if you’re a millionaire-your LeBron obsession isn’t healthy.

But you understand capitalism while living under your parents roof? lol c'mon man, you can come up with something better.

[RRR3]

I’ll be happy to discuss the evils of capitalism with you when you can actually muster up better debate tactics than the likes of Patrick Chewing and Coin24. Until then, I will regard you as an angry troll.

I'm actually not mad at him.. I'm mad that I don't enjoy or respect today's format and the resulting skillset of the NBA's most talented players (Giannis, Lebron).. and therefore haven't watched in almost 10 years.. you can't remove pure scoring from the game and still call it basketball

So lebron is just the punching bag I use to trash the league, since he's the face.. it helps that he's entirely flawed as a ball player, so that makes it look worse.. hey, it isn't my fault that lebron actually sucks.... where I make him look soooo bad that it looks like an obsession..

In reality, you're just amazed that I've developed such an effective argument against his basketball ability

There is no universe in which LeBron sucks. That literally makes no sense. If LeBron sucks, that means 99.9% of players in NBA history were Division III college level.

Not even the most insane thing he said in this thread. LeBron James, a consensus top 3 player of all time, “sucks”. HOW? Like he legit can’t even explain that, he’s just spewing words out.

It's all relative

His decision to ring-chase from 2011-2020 sucks

His team offenses suck given his offensive help..

He sucks at ball movement... So his brand of basketball sucks compared to elite brands

His record against organic brands sucks, aka lottery record against Mavs/Spurs/Warriors

so his Finals record sucks

His jumpshooting skill completely sucks for anyone that people say is a top 3 player ever

His pure scoring ability sucks

So there's a lot about his basketball that "sucks"

If he was really that bad you wouldn't have created literally 1000 threads about him. It takes true greatness to evoke feelings of such hate & insecurity

Still a better basketball player than Jordan.

Name me 1 player that can make 13 All-NBA 1st teams.

Jordan couldn't do it. Not if you replay his career over every single era.

There is no world in which LeBron sucks at “pure scoring”, no matter how you define that. He does not suck at ball movement, and you’d know that if you ever watched him play on the Heat. He just led a great offense with AD+crap, so shut the **** up.

Lol at the level of denial in this post...addiction.

[dankok8]

I'm not defending 3ball but he just said "sucks" relative to... the GOAT level. He sucks at pure scoring relative to Michael Jordan. I think he is talking about Lebron in the context of the GOAT conversation.

The crazy thing is this guy has it pretty good. He could of been born in some third world country or China. He was born in a place where if he worked hard enough and simply tried, he could make a decent living for himself and live happily. So what does he do instead? He complains and says everything sucks. It sucks so bad it’s not worth him lifting a finger to participate. Instead he would rather wait around and hope someday people will give him things for free. The kicker is he uses this twisted ideology to act like he’s intellectually superior while masking all of his fear and rejection of the outside world. He is like the “her elbows are too pointy” guy but he does it for everything in life, not just chicks. If he pretends he doesn’t desire it, then he can’t be rejected.

Summary. RRR3 stop being a little bitch and go outside.

You lose credibility when you make too strong an argument. Like saying LeBron sucks. No serious NBA fan would agree with that, even those like myself who look forward to him losing. Saying he's overrated, or gets away with warding with his off-arm on drives, uses brawn over skill, gets favorable officiating, etc. - things like that might be believable based on the argument.

[SATAN]

No serious NBA fan would agree with that

He said he hasn't watched NBA in a decade. Reminds of a few MJ stans I know. They will never admit it but they are actually "casuals" who never played a real game in their lives. They claimed no one could EVER be as good as MJ in the 90s. They barely even watched any NBA outside of the 90s at all.

Reminds me of the old man yells at cloud picture.

Hey 3ball, why don't you stop making a fool out of yourself here and go hit up the EuroLeague forums? Perhaps you can start fresh, pretend your not insane ect ect

What was his basis for preferring doug collins over hof phil jackson when it came to head coaching?

[Mauzah]

The man has his faults for sure. I certainly do not agree that Jordan was a one man army. I do appreciate that he attempts to back his claims with information and facts, even though sometimes he can be off on Waiters on island with his position.

And also as someone who's only a casual on this board the dude gets piled on hard even if his thread is a reach.

Doug Collins over Phil Jackson? Yah that's crazy talk.

If an alltime great lost in the olympics and got bronze or silver medal in a sport for a country they would be put in the front lines of war. That is what happened to the guy who lost to Jesse Owens in the long jump. But Lebron doesn't get that here for some reason.

They're just mad that I can degrade and expose their hero with facts they don't hear on LeESPN..

Nowhere else do they get the truth except from 3ball, and people always chalk up uniqueness to "crazy" and "what's wrong with that guy"..

Typical junior high shit because they can't handle the truth about their hero's skillset deficits (no ability for organic brand/teamwork) and resulting need to manufacture his career (talent-based winning, aka team-hop).

Here's the reality.. i don't spend a single minute watching the NBA because the format has been watered down and it's a league of talent-based winning (team-hopping... no organic teamwork/best brand of ball) ... But I still love and play basketball, so what am I to do? I can't watch the beginner format or garbage brand/teamwork, so I rail against it.. I'm like a political activist that spends 30 minutes a day posting on this forum in good fun, while everyone else spends entire days watching 3 hour games and getting steamed at my posts.. they're the ones with the loser lives that watch NBA games and sportscenter.. only losers watch sportscenter

Ultimately, only a fool would follow the current NBA/WWE... only losers would watch stephen a. smith analyze a fake league of pre-planned team-stacking for 1 team, and then the fake analysis and praise when they win.. only a complete dumbass would fall for that

It's become a league whose entire vision and objective is to get lebron rings.. anyone who thinks that is top 10 is a fool... A literal dumbass

I'm not watching basketball anymore like I used to. My golden years were the early 00's watching my nets. Used to love watching YES network almost every night. It was my main hobby. Celtics, Pacers, Pistons, Knicks, Nets, Sixers. Jason Kidd was my favorite player. And a big Paul Pierce fan. Walt Frazier my favorite commentator behind JVG. Shit's just devolved in these times. Scrubs making 50+ million dollars on one contract. It's just money now. It used to be a fight.

Football is still legit at least.

There is no universe in which LeBron sucks. That literally makes no sense. If LeBron sucks, that means 99.9% of players in NBA history were Division III college level.

I think Lebron has flaws in his skillset, but the irony is that 3ball would call Magic Johnson a top 5 player, who had the same flaws, but was just a tad flashier in his transition passing, yet stopped the ball as much as Lebron aside from the highlight reels.

If Magic is top 5 so is Lebron. Where he exactly lands is personal opinion.

No, that's not true and I've stated this many times

I have magic at #10 and lebron #11... Here's why

Magic and Kareem can't both be top 5 because their Finals record was only 5-4 including an asterisk ring... That's a poor Finals record/team ceiling for a couple top 5 guys.. so one must get bumped down..... And I choose magic because his ball-dominance reduces team ceiling/Finals record just like Lebron

My top 10 is.... MJ, Wilt, Kareem, Russell, Bird, Shaq, Kobe, Hakeem, Duncan, Magic

Ultimately, lebron and magic's deck-stacking distorts their career and resume (magic demanded to play with kareem)

How can Russell be in your top 5? He didn't score much, wasn't efficient. Nothing you always talk about what makes players great. Wilt? Wilt was a supreme ball stopper. His high assist seasons came from monopolizing the ball and looking for assists rather than offense opening passes.

I dont like to gamble because I know the odds and juice basically rig it... but the fact that people think this stuff is real makes it easy to play. I made way more money off basketball than any other sport, because its so predictable but the public sees it as fair.

Not saying the NBA isn't an entertainment based league, but basketball being predictable doesn't mean it's rigged. Betting on it is easy, because of the high amount of scoring. Higher numbers of samples mean scores gets normalized instead of randomized. Gauß instead of Laplace.

[1987_Lakers]

Both AD and Kareem needed super-point guards like Oscar, Magic, and now Lebron to find synergies and have a great team.

Without these guys bird-feeding them, they're losers.

Never forget.

[3ball]

Never forget.

lebron is a loser without a "Jordan" - an elite 1st option and equal-scoring partner to close possessions (closer)

Closers > bird-feeders (guys that bring the ball up)

Jordan is 1-9 without Pippen. LeBron made the Finals without a legit 2nd option, MJ never made it past the 1st round without Pippen.

No Pip, no chip.

Everyone won the 00's East with no sidekick

Before "the decision", lebron was like Iverson, Kidd and Dwight with 1 Finals run in a weak conference

Ultimately, lebron needed 2 stars to win... Or a sidekick to lead him and the entire league in playoff scoring

Again, lebron needs an equal scoring partner to win, whereas Jordan averaged 10-30 more than pippen for every series of their careers

There are certain games that are rigged. They want a competitive series, but at the same time also want their guy to win. The game where Jimmy Butler had twice as many FT's as AD and Lebron combined? Thats a rig to extend the series and make it look competitive. You look at the next games? That didn't happen.

It's incredibly easy to call.

You can say the same for most successful east teams in the 90's, Pippen was better than any sidekick player in the 90's. These are facts.

Pippen was horrible.. you're just going by accolades, which are always given to the winner

Otherwise, you have no case to say pippen was good

3ball,

We’re all worried about your LeBron addiction. You simply can’t quit LeBron and it’s destroying your life. Your friends on ISH are here for you. We want you to go to rehab and get the help you need so you can start enjoying life again.

At least he was able to play under two different teams in a competitive western conference playoffs :rolleyes:

Also if he was horrible, then no other teams in the league would trade somebody for him.

Pippen was 3rd option in houston (more stacked than Bulls) but lost in the 1st round because he wet the bed with 18 on 32%

Then he averaged 11/5/5 in Portland... Only people's memory of 6 rings had people still calling him a good player..

[72-10]

3ball's been in the game too long

high time to get him the **** outta there

Lol pip was only a game away from his 7th finals trip but he and the blazers happened to face phil's lakers in the playoffs.

Also, sure the '99 rockets were stacked even if they haven't won more than 35 games in that lockout season.

Pippen was 1 game away from his 7th Finals as an 11/5/5 player and 89th option

So who cares

Ultimately, houston couldn't win with pippen, even at 3rd option (and portland couldn't win with him at 89th option).

Only Jordan could win with pippen

Like i said, at least he's still able to go in the playoffs with other teams unlike baldan. That is regardless if he's a role player or not. It shows he won some series without him.
