It's sad, when a mother has to speak the words that condemn her own son. But I couldn't allow them to believe that I would commit murder. They'll put him away now, as I should have years ago. He was always bad, and in the end he intended to tell them I killed those girls and that man... as if I could do anything but just sit and stare, like one of his stuffed birds. They know I can't move a finger, and I won't. I'll just sit here and be quiet, just in case they do... suspect me. They're probably watching me. Well, let them. Let them see what kind of a person I am. I'm not even going to swat that fly. I hope they are watching... they'll see. They'll see and they'll know, and they'll say, "Why, she wouldn't even harm a fly..."

The deletes have been suss the past week or so.
They deleted 2 where Dray&Klay got slayed and obviously reported people slaying him (both his own threads that backfired)
Delete 3ball threads
Allow 4 threads about bron on the same topic.

Hey do you have that one thread that you deleted a couple years back where I used all stats to show Lebron's inferiority, like his low assist teams, low-assisted rate, lowering of teammate assists, ridiculous time of possession, all-time turnover lead, horrible jumpshooting efficiency and lack of contested jumpshooting - basically making Lebron look like the beginner skill/low IQ physical talent that he is

At the moment it’s two 3ball, 2 Dray, and one mask the Embiid(something about us being addicted to Lebron). Very few of either 3ball or drays would make it through if any of us happen to be online the moment they are made. All just repeats and fluff nobody needs 35 of at the same time.

The Last ban I saw of Dray I think was for two years by rmwg But apparently it was overturned. 3ball I think is the only one of the over the top Lebron obsessed accounts I’ve never banned for more than a month or so(even though he somehow flips that to me having it out for him). 3ball starts sending emails and so on when he’s banned. I guess he’s got nothing else to do. Someone always brings him back. The other one just has too many names. I’ve banned 6-7 at a time. A few I think permanently but there’s an endless well. I’m just not gonna pay that much attention. I’m not tracking it in a little file or anything.
I did that once a few years ago and banned 20 or 30 accounts on both sides at one time and then after we moved servers they were all mysteriously back. My effort level these days peaks at “Nobody needs this again….” deletes.

Everyone in history needed equal-scoring partners to attract equal defensive attention for numerous playoff runs and Finals, so they didn't always face maximum defensive attention - any period without facing maximum defensive attention is inflated stats compared to Jordan, who always faced maximum defensive attention by carrying the scoring load in every SERIES, let alone playoff run.

.
1.) In 2010, Lebron asked: "Aside from me, who has the highest PER in the land??
And he teamed up with that guy.
Wade had the #2 PER, BPM, VORP and WS/48 - that's like Magic teaming up with Bird, or Kobe with Tmac.. aka UNPRECEDENTED.
Then he added another top 5 PER (Bosh) to make sure his super-team would always make the Finals in a conference that Dwight, Kidd and Iverson won by themselves - that's the definition of stacking the deck.
2.) Everyone conflates Lebron's physical talent with IQ
How can a player have high basketball IQ if he has a 20-year career of bad teammate fits and ceding the best strategy/brand of ball, best offenses, and best teams to other players and teams??
It's literally impossible because everyone ELSE had the best brand of ball, best offenses and best teams on his watch.
He simply amassed enough talent to win (team-hopping) and never learned HOW to win (organic).
Specifically, Lebron never evolved out of ball-dominant offenses that revolve around him, so he never learned to elevate teammates beyond spot-up roles.. Since he never learned how to elevate teammates, he couldn't learn how to WIN (organic chemistry) and had to team-hop (talent-based winning).
3.) Lebron had 35 on 70% last night but loses more than less stacked teams because
he takes too long to get elite stats - his production per hold-time is low compared to other wings or frontcourt players:
Hold-Time ("time of possession")
Lebron..... 6.2 minutes
Giannis.... 4.6 minutes
Durant...... 4.2 minutes
Jokic........ 4.1 minutes
Booker...... 3.6 minutes
The gap between Lebron and other wings is the time those teams can employ superior strategy (move the ball).
Ball movement wears down defenses more than ball-dominance, so worn-out opponents have less capacity to go off offensively (win the battle of attrition)..
The best defense is a good offense - a tenet of all competition.
Otoh, defenses get tons of rest against ball-dominance, so they routinely go off offensively on ball-dominators like 90 or 91' Magic without Kareem (blown away by KJ & MJ), or Lebron many years (09', 11', 14', 17', 18', 21').

Pippen was 3rd in MVP without Jordan when did Jeff Green come close to that?
Rookie Jeff Green didn't land next to the goat scorer and DPOY to light that fire as a 2-way player
And btw, by "2-way player", we mean below Horry-level in the Finals 6/6 times.. So we're being pretty generous calling Pippen a "2-way player" outside of 91' and 92'
Someone laughed when I said that Dumas was an elite talent, but he averaged 16 on 57% in the Finals, which is pippen-caliber - any elite athlete that gets that range of stats is pippen-caliber (not that great)
One more thing - MVP is usually based largely on the surprise factor, which explains winners like Rose or Pippen's cousin (westbrook)

I’m gonna let that one stay while I make dinner. Why don’t you call that woman over you once claimed blew you because you managed to get me to respond to you. Whatever can be said of me never let it be said I don’t back up the homie when called on. I’ll write up something to get her going for you later.
I'm actually kind of curious. Jeff get me back into mod emails. Could be fun

Pippen wasn't a sure thing like Robinson, Shaq, Kidd, Coleman or even Bosh.
He was a scrawny, 8 ppg rookie that needed a TON of development
So he was one of the many raw talents on the borderline that were competing for one of the coveted star spots - these guys can't lose precious development years being injured or regressing in a bad system while others are developing, or they'll fall back to the pack and certainly miss out on one of the few star spots..
Kuzma appeared initially to be one of those guys - a borderline raw talent that lost a few years in Lebron-ball and now had fallen back to the pack.. But he's recovered nicely like Ingram did - both guys experienced 1-year drops across the board alongside Lebron (PER, BPM, WS/48, VORP).
otoh, Jordan's more versatlie on-ball/off-ball game fit with all players types, so Pippen grew by leaps and bounds every year.. So he landed in the perfect spot alongside the goat scorer, DPOY, and clutch winner, aka the luckiest player in the history of the sport.

the "surprise" in 94 was how little jordan impacts wins and losses, eh?
