Re: No one ever "counted" losses until Lebron
[QUOTE=Full Court;15046160]It's completely relevant - you just don't want to hear it. You're trying to make the case that Lebron shouldn't be "penalized" for losing because he won a few times. And you assert that criticism for losing means he's being held to a different standard. I merely pointed out that your case is silly.
Jordan dropping 63 points while losing to Bird isn't the same as dropping 8 points while losing to the underdog. Unless, of course, you're a low IQ Bronie fluffer.[/QUOTE]
I have no clue how old you are but Lebron was being criticized long before 2011. And nah im all for blaming him for 2011, but at the same time hes done so much on the other side of the ledger that who effing cares? There's no competitor in any sport, in the history of competition that i can recall being called a loser that won 4 championships. Its retarded. He has more finals mvps than everyone to ever touch a ball but one guy. And you think he can somehow be seen as anything less than one of the greatest to ever do it?

Pretty sure Wilt took a lot of grief for losing a lot in the playoffs, ditto for Jerry West for that matter.
