If Lebron had lost that game 6 to Boston in 2012.


OKC would have ruled the entire decade as they would have beaten that old Boston team who were on their last legs in 5 or six games and then kept Harden.


You probably see OKC winning four to five rings from 2012 to 2022 as a result.

[red1]

they just ran into the GOAT elimination game performer.


cant take anything from KG pierce rondo ray and those boys that year.


they ran into the GOAT.

4 rings in the modern era are equivalent to 8 rings against malone stockton

As someone who was rooting for OKC that season, I wanted Boston to win that ECF so badly as I knew they would run their old legs out of the gym.


Instead, Lebron played the best game of his career and then went on to beat OKC in five.

yeah man it was incredible.


I remember all of the haters had to just give props or be quiet.


the 2011 jokes weren't hitting as hard the next two years when bron won back to MVPs and finals MVPs cleansweeping all 4 MVP awards those next two years. :roll:

And in the last 2 pics it appears he's holding 2 championship trophies each. And someone on here mentioned that his 2016 win is worth 7 trophies. So if my math's right that's about 31 trophies. Which comes out to 62 championships in total. Each being worth 2 or 3 trophies. And I forgot to account for the rings. So that's even more trophies. Which is EVEN more championships. It's a feedback loop of winning! My oh my. I gotta go lie down.

:oldlol:


we already know lebron is iron man aka the most durable athlete of all time.


if kyrie and love dont go down in 2015 and if the dray doesnt call kd in the parking lot - that's 6 or 7 rings



and that's not even a stretch. it's literally what happened. lebron was the best player in the playoffs and the finals 8 consecutive years in a row from 2012-2018. kerr confirmed it after the warriors swept the cavs beating them the second time in a row in 2018.


kerr said lebron was the best in the world.

[red1]

I dont even need to talk about wade's gimpy knees in 2014 and AD gimping out 2021 and this year 2022


thats three more missed opportunities due to injuries from teammates - something that jordan never dealt with. his teams always had perfect health.



and now EVEN kyrie is on the record saying that he was wrong to leave and that he was immature and that he would have won more rings if he played with lebron, and again if he was more mature. and this is BEFORE he got swept in the first round. :roll:



its over.



GOAT james.
