Re: Taj Gibson on LeBron James after Game 3
[QUOTE=mehyaM24]ignore what? kenny smith himself said vernon maxwell would talk shit to jordan in his face. :confusedshrug:
don't forget about the cartwright and parish altercations either. you're talking about "ignoring posts" yet you skipped over this very swiftly. :oldlol:[/QUOTE]
About Parish and Cartwright, if MJ got on their face and if they told him to step back son, then it is what it is. That's far from running away like a scared little girl like you're trying to twist it, they still played together, won and celebrated together...only Mike knew not to try and intimidate them in practice :lol
That is very different than what happened with Marion and Terry, they talked shit to his face and took his soul in 11 and left Bran shook. Vernon Maxwell could talk all he wants, don't mean shit if you can't back it up. To lazy to look but if you put their head to head stats, I'm pretty MJ won those matchups :oldlol:

Re: Taj Gibson on LeBron James after Game 3
[QUOTE=Beastmode88]Did u just say most competitive with lebron? :roll: :roll: reference: the decision[/QUOTE]
Do you even know what that is? What being very competitive in basketball means is having that fire that burns to go out on the court and beat the opponent, they are extremly confident in their ability, have usually huge egos & cockiness.... they have that "I am better than anybody in the world" mindset and they will let you know about it, by game and sometimes even by mouth, if you dont already know about it.... to compete for the win (win or lose) and to compete against yourself to see just how good you can really be, preferably become the best/best ever..... this innate quality is born by ability / confidence in that ability, they KNOW they are better than anybody else and dont feel good about a lesser team/player beating them, they have a ridicilous determination/will to win because of it and demand it out from their teammates/franchise etc. and do whatever it takes to win.... and when it doesnt come they are pissed about it or as you can call it with other words being massive "sore losers"...
Being a "sore loser" in a loss is being disappointed/pissed at yourself for perhaps underperforming or for your teammates not being good enough.... they want to be the best on the floor and win every single time.... anything else is unacceptable....
They work harder than anybody else, pushing themselves to be the best in the game / best ever, thats the mindset...
It’s that competitive nature that also makes you a great teammate and allows you to be a player that other coaches and teammates would love to play with / go to war with.....
That you "reference: the decision" is only an example/proof of something that has to do with competitiveness if you look into how competitive he was for 7 straight years before that decision and then why he decided to go somewhere else, he would have stayed there ONLY if he wasnt this competitive, a competitor with Jordans/Lebrons type of talent/skill is not fine with ending up ringless/not taking advantage of his ability/talent simply because the franchise is not/cant be on the same page, being competitive is NOT staying with scrub cast your entire career and because of it taking a loss & loss & loss & loss....... [B]where is the will to win in that decision?..[/B]. and then think about what he did once he got there in Miami... and then also what he did once he achieved his goal there... which was to go back and challenge himself even further by trying to bring a championship to Cleveland and he wont stop that task until he retired....
Thats everything which Jordan was and Lebron is... and the likes of them were.... (Kobe, Bird, Magic etc.)
Many lesser players were crazy enough to be just as competitive, like Reggie Miller.... Westbrook is the finest example today, but that leaves you nowhere or at least doesnt leave you at the success of Jordan, Lebron, Kobe etc. if you dont have the tools (talent or skills) to actually do what your mind thinks/wants.... (see Westbrook again)

scoring king, ruthless competitor, best player in the world.
LeBron is like a very very soft beta version of Charles Barkley.[/QUOTE]
Do u realize how stupid u sound by saying this especially if u actually believe it ? :facepalm

people know more about basketball here than Taj, who has to actually guard Lebron (sometimes) :confusedshrug: :confusedshrug:
Re: Taj Gibson on LeBron James after Game 3
[QUOTE=andgar923]Lebron is the Drake of this era.
MJ is the f*ckin boogeyman
MJ's on some urban legend type shit that's real.
Coaches warning players not to talk to Mike, even when he was RETIRED!!
Vets warning rooks to not look him into his eyes, like he's gonna take their souls or some shit.
MJ would walk into the opposing team's locker room and talk shit.
MJ left one of the 80s dynasty so shook and broken, they didn't even shake hands after the game.
Meanwhile Drake is posting pics of himself looking in the mirror, sensitive ass Drake muf#cka.[/QUOTE]
This is such a sad f*cking post.
I'm not even kidding. Here you have a grown man talking about, and backing up another mans behaviour and "alphaness". You sound like a nitwit you dummy.
Why the f*ck do you care about this shit? Do you like basketball or MJ's dick? Jesus. So much cringe in this post and this thread in general. You sound like a kid talking about his favourite superhero, or even worse, a woman talking about her dream man.
You don't like basketball bro. You just like the thought of MJ. That is it. Just thinking about him makes you feel nice inside. You weird as f*ck out here talking about another dudes alphaness in a serious manner. You weren't even kidding about this shit. You felt the need to tell everyone this on here. :facepalm
My gawd.
Re: Taj Gibson on LeBron James after Game 3
MJ stans are so pathetic :oldlol:
They're comprised of middle aged men sad that they're idol retired and resort to fairy tales and myths to back up his 'greatness'

One question.
Where is 3Ball
Re: Taj Gibson on LeBron James after Game 3
[QUOTE=SamuraiSWISH]I wasn't bashing LeBron. Just telling the truth. I freely admit he's top ten, and most likely the best player overall since Mike.
Yes, better than Kobe, Duncan, and Shaq.
Jordan, and lesser extent Kobe played with chips on their shoulder with something to prove. Guys like Shaq, or Wilt, or LeBron ... so inherently gifted that things came easy to them so they had nothing to prove.
That is the difference ultimately between the fear of failure, and the thirst to win. The latter for people who don't get shook by the moment.[/QUOTE]
I always laugh when fans think they understood the psyche of a player by seeing them on a basketball court... from all accounts Lebron is a gym rat who is constantly working on his game.
It must be easy to sit in your arm chair having accomplished nothing near the likes of Lebron, and just say its because he got good genetics, no effort, handed on a plate.
He fears the moment, yet has the best game 7 stats EVER. just :lol :roll:

This is somewhat true, but to be fair Mj was damn near begging madmax to settle down. He made him uncomfortable on the floor.
Re: Taj Gibson on LeBron James after Game 3
Typical prop up your opponent so that you will look better. Lebron will never be close to MJ. NEVER!
