Show me those Hawaii pics.. why would you doubt him? Or are you taking the 2 weeks as exactly 2 weeks, AFTER the finals? Maybe its a week, maybe 10 days, maybe its not right after the finals... but he was bugged about it, everyone could see that with the way he played in 2012.[/QUOTE]
apparently "coach" knows EVERYTHING lebron did that summer. even the flights he booked. :oldlol:
and he wonders why nobody takes him seriously. smh.
[QUOTE=Legends66NBA7]I think people are missing Taj's point.
That LeBron is probably the best player/been this "generations" best talent. That's it. Why are people turning into a comparison ? If it's Michael Jordan of this era, I'm pretty Taj understands Jordan is better. If he thought even more of LeBron, he would have called him the GOAT, which he didn't.[/QUOTE]
Don't use common sense. It is MJ we are talking about. Unless you don't say that lebron would not be able to score 10 ppg in the 90s, these guys will not be satisfied.
[QUOTE=SamuraiSWISH]I don't think any players of his era would be calling MJ "a bitch" multiple times to his face, or the opposing team's rookies in a playoff series being so confident to say there is no one on the other side of the ball that frightens them.
The repercussions they would surely face would never allow them to say that and unlike James, Mike's contemporaries respected him. He wasn't a coward, trying to stack the deck.
As Kobe described, the league was so shook by Jordan's dominance, skill, athleticism, game, trash talk, look and temperment ... that his teammates, presumably Eddie Jones was urging young Kobe
TO NOT EVEN LOOK HIM IN THE EYE
[B]Meanwhile guys routinely clown LeBron for his uncompetitive, BETA status. No knock on his abilities, he's top ten. But given his cowardly nature, and lack of swagger, cool factor and certainly not his intimidation game ... contemporaries just aren't frightened by him.[/B]
Being the MJ of your era isn't exclusively related to on court dominance. It was his swagger, style, innate gravitas for the moment, and the level of fear he instilled in opponents.
And even then, LeBron while mighty impressive, doesn't even have the on court individual dominance, or success through leadership in winning that Jordan experienced.
Even if ranked as underdogs in the '93 ECF, and '93 Finals ... Jordan just absolutely never failed to deliver. LeBron overall has met hype, but has failed to meet expectations a number of times. MJ always over delivered.[/QUOTE]

bill cartwright & robert parish both threatened to kick jordan's ass (he backed off like a bitch).
vernon maxwell said he didn't give a shit about jordan, verbally clowning him in every way imaginable.

Lebron got called out by a Role Player in the Finals then proceeded to get sh*tted on by said Role Player. Then watched said Role Player raise the trophy while he choked like a b*tch.

This is where I gotta stick up for LeBron. People use LBJ's lack of a mean streak (for lack of a better discription), as if it's something bad...it really isn't. He's been successful being the way he is, he could've handled things better in the past but he's only human. We know Bron isn't the kind of dude that'll get in other people's faces, he's a none confrontational type person. If he's not like MJ, Kobe, Bird etc, what's the big deal? He had that monster 2012 postseason run, and he didn't need to turn into an asshole :confusedshrug:
We give LeBron a ton of shit here but it's mostly to piss off his delusional stans (in my case). I personally don't hate him, after all, he's an MJ stan, just like Kobe. :lol

MJ squashed Mad Max in the face when Max stepped to him.
And Cartwright and Parish were teammates, not opponents clowning him on the court for EVERYONE to see, unlike Lebron getting his shit pushed in by Shawn Marion and Jason Terry.

gtfo with your damage control :roll:
and, you act as if lebron couldn't destroy 90% of the league with his bare hands.

They want a the best player on the cavs to punch someone and get ejected. That would make him alpha in their eyes.
I was surprised lebron said something to Noah. He normally keeps on playing no matter if it was pierce, kg or stevenson trash talking. Noah must have crossed some line.

Vernon Maxwell was nothing to MJ, he never bested him in anything. How is that verbally clowning him? :facepalm
