If Heat actually WON 2011 Finals - least respected/biggest asterisk ring ever?..

because no one would've respected it.

Lebron made sure to supersede the 2010 Lakers by getting a Kobe-like sidekick and a 3rd option that's better than Pau - [I]so his rings were asterisk rings that KD stopped by joining the Warriors.[/I]

The only reason people forgot Lebron's unprecedented deck-stacking and started to respect his rings is because his historic chokes in 10' or 11' made him a sympathetic underdog... So people forgot that he stacked the deck by teaming up with "Kobe-Pau II", while hand-picking 6 straight preseason favorites from 11' to 16', and having the only super-team in the league.

The Heat did win the 2011 Finals you fvcking idiot.

It's okay SouBeach everyone does it.. (the editing, not the denial)

That is how the lebron suckers have it in their minds.

SouBeach is right, Lebron has 10 rings and is clear cut GOAT. OP will never change my mind on this.

If the Heat won the 2011 Finals, no one would respect the ring and it would be considered a massive asterisk ring.. Everyone would know that Lebron was allowed to put the top 3 players in the conference on 1 team so he could stop losing it as the favorite.

But after the 2011 loss, people forgot that Lebron stacked the deck because 3 straight upset losses made him a sympathetic figure.. It didn't seem like deck-stacking since Lebron was such a massive loser... People forgot that he superseded the 2010 Lakers by getting a Kobe-like sidekick and a 3rd option that was better than Pau... So even though many people didn't notice, his rings [i]were[/i] asterisk rings that someone had to stop by getting an even bigger advantage (KD's Warriors).. But Lebron's advantage lasted twice as long (11-16' vs 17-19').

Would probably be viewed like one of KD's rings. Just based on the climate at that time, outside of Miami Heat fans, you wouldn't find many who'd actually respect it.

Does Wade winning FMVP hurt LeBron's legacy more than his ALL TIME choke? Knowing how obsessed LeBron is with pushing the narrative, I don't think its a stretch to say he'd prefer losing. :oldlol:

Exactly, and that's how Lebron's rings should be viewed - just like KD's.. Lebron enjoyed an advantage over the league, which required a bigger advantage to stop it (KD's).

But after the 2011 loss, people forgot that Lebron stacked the deck because 3 straight upset losses made him a sympathetic figure.. It didn't seem like deck-stacking since Lebron was such a massive loser... People forgot that he superseded the 2010 Lakers by getting a Kobe-like sidekick and a 3rd option that was better than Pau... So even though many people didn't notice, his rings were asterisks that someone had to stop by getting an even bigger advantage (KD's Warriors).. But Lebron's advantage lasted twice as long (11-16' vs 17-19').

No chip will ever be less respected than the Mickey Mouse bubble chip.

Lebron's "decision" got him an advantage over the league and asterisk rings, so an even bigger advantage was required to stop it (KD's).

However, Lebron's advantage and asterisk reign lasted twice as long as KD's (11-16' vs 17-19'), so KD's only mistake was waiting 6 years to respond.
