Giannis just destroyed LeBron’s entire career and legacy with a single quote
After Lebron formed his first super team in 2010 with Miami Heat:
[QUOTE=LeBron] It’s gon be easy[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=LeBron] Not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 [/QUOTE]
After returning to Cleveland to form his second super team:
[QUOTE=DJ Gallo]...and then returned to Cleveland for a new superteam with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. [/QUOTE]
After going to LA to form his third super team:
[QUOTE=Jalen Rose] Each time LeBron has won a championship he’s been on a super team!” [/QUOTE]
Giannis after winning NBA title with Bucks:
[QUOTE=Giannis] “I could go to a superteam, and just do my part to win a championship. But this is the hard way to do it, and we did it.” [/QUOTE]

The moment you realize Jordan had the only super team in the 90s :lol
Re: Giannis just destroyed LeBron’s entire career and legacy with a single quote
Super-teams have favorite status in Year 1 - they didn't build and earn favorite status over many years like organic teams are required to do
So super-teams are a shortcut and that's why those rings mean literally nothing.. Cheat code victories don't count - everyone knows that

[indent][B]pre-Lebron Bosh[/B]... [SIZE=3]6x all-star[/SIZE]

^^^ Lebron teamed up with the rich man's version of Kobe-Pau, but went 2/4.
Lebron's super-teams from 2011 to 2016 were so unfair, that KD needed to team up with Curry/Klay to supercede them - yet the media says Lebron's colluded rings are legit, but KD's aren't.. This completely ignores that Lebron stacked the deck in the first place...
Ultimately, Lebron's Cavs were the pre-season favorite in 2015 and 2016 because Kyrie/Love were perennial all-stars, while Klay/Dray were 1st-timers.. So Lebron hand-picked the preseason favorite from 2011-2016 but fell to underdog or loser every year in the Finals, except the Ray Allen miracle...

pippen carried the bulls to 50+wins without baldan.
if wade and bosh were such a superteam (they weren't) - then why did they struggle so hard without lebron?
baldan's teams were more stacked relative to the competition - not to mention perfect health.

When LeBron heard that his gut sank. :oldlol: KD and Harden were put on notice too. Especially Harden. I don't think Giannis likes that dude.

Or the fact that Lebron tried to recruit him by inviting him to work out with him in 2018 (knowing that he would be FA soon) and he DENIED his ass and worked out with Kobe instead.

:oldlol:
Lebron did try to recruit a host of other stars including Lillard. Imagine the audacity of this player to actively reach out to form superteams. Surely got rejected quite a number of times.
