Are you guys retarded?

Lebron missed the play-in with Westbrook

That's worse than what KD is doing... Wow Lebron fans are delusional, so he's even worse than I ever thought.

Heck, Pippen missed around 40 games in 1998 just like AD this year, yet MJ won the title and Lebron missed the play-in despite having a 19/7/7 teammate in westbrook

Lebron would never be knocked for losing in the 1st Round if he had an 8 seed against the NBA champ, but Lebron didn't have to face any champs to get out of the East..

Lebron winning the East was less than Jordan beating the 88' Cavs or 90' Sixers - Jordan needed 45/7/7 to win those series

The fact remains LeBron saw a baby version of these Celtics in the conference finals. So he saw worse competition in the 3rd round than the nets saw in this years 1st round. That's quite telling.

LeBron has never once seen a 30 ppg superstar like Tatum in all of his east playoff series combined. You have to look at context my friend. LeBron led an 11 seed this year.

You want context? LeBron beat a 73 win team with Kyrie as his #2.

KD with Kyrie got SWEPT vs a team who clearly aren't as good as those Warriors teams.

Of course the Celtics are better now, but keep in mind LeBron beat them without Kyrie in 2018.

That's the point. LeBron saw a baby version of these Celtics in the Conference Finals. The Nets this year saw a super prime version in the 1st round.

This highlights how weak the East was when LeBron was winning it. The Nets saw tougher competition in the 1st round than the Cavs used to see in the ECFs.

They saw them in the 1st round because Durant missed like 25 games and Kyrie was a part time player, hence the low seed. But just imagine for a second if LeBron with Kyrie got swept by them. This forum and the media will be talking about it for weeks/months, with KD though, people will move on much sooner. Just shows how how much of a different standard people hold LeBron.

The east is tough these days though. Tatum has hit his prime.

Lebron was extremely lucky to play kawhi and Tatum when they weren't old enough to get in the bar.

Its like playing against LeBron in 2005, nobody even remembers what the hell he was doing then

2018 LeBron is a different species of player from Durant entirely. That’s just undeniable.

KD literally plays like if a Grandma was athletic.


LeBron was physically dominant in those years. Literally made men look like boys, had an ungodly court awareness, and led schemes. On both ends.

Just a completely different level of competitor and athlete, and mind, and skill set.

LeBron haters should actually latch onto guys even somewhat pretending to be comparable to that.

Kawhi would never get outmuscled in a sweep like this at least. His peaks were pretty much as high as LeBron’s. Just fragile.

Bro LeBron led an 11 seed this year with a team that was expected to be a title contender. You need to sit the **** down. The Nets got knocked out in the first round. Your boy got,knocked out in the first 20 seconds. There s levels to this shit and you're not in a position to talk trash here lol.

Everyone was better playmaker than Pippen



Career APG

Westbrook..... 8.6
Rondo........... 8.0
Kyrie............ 5.7
Wade............ 5.4
Jordan.......... 5.3
Pippen.......... 5.2


Among 90's sidekicks, only Pippen failed to get elite ppg, rpg or apg in any series..

Every other 90's sidekick was infact a 1b with many series of elite stats and domination.

Pippen is the only sidekick that was more of an athlete/transition player and not a go-to player capable of dominating stats like every other sidekick

Goodness the irony. If the Cavs had been the 7th seed in 2018 (instead of the 4th seed), they would’ve faced the Celtics in the first round also.

Hint: seeding matters. Playing in the play-in game means you’ll most likely have a harder path. Dumbass:oldlol:

Kyrie drastically outplayed one of my favorite players Steph curry in his GOAT UMVP season and hit the series clinching dagger. How is that cancer? He saved your boy and played like a superstar for that win. Youre not good at this my friend. Some people are. You aint. :lol

Bahahaha

Kyrie actually played a decent series for a 2nd option

21/5/5/2/1 on 58.8%TS against that Celtics' defense is not bad at all. He worked hard on defense too. I have never seen him make more plays on D than he did in that series. He wasn't perfect, but he showed up in multiple close games while KD failed to seal the deal. Irving only had one bad game in the series and wasn't a liability on defense.

in all fairness. lebrons 8 straight years making the finals he beat a grand total of 10 teams with 50+ wins

in comparison the Nets would have needed to beat 3 just this year alone to make the finals once.. thats more than twice the competition

ImKobe
04-26-2022, 02:59 PM
In the east? Probably PG/Hibbert.

And Hibbert was a role player who really only went off on Miami and PG wasn't in his prime either. And those teams took the Heat to 6-7 games for 3 straight years, and they were bottom 10 offensively in 2 of the 3 seasons.

So imagine Bran played a team like the Cs, who are good on both sides of the ball with two star players capable of going for 30-40 pts, and can switch all 5 without there being a single mismatch to exploit.
