    As soon as Lebron got to the Western Conference he misses the playoffs the very next year after had gotten to the finals in the East.

    Just for reference

    2006 Wade Games 4-6: 29

    I bet there's like half a dozen others that are missing too
    Yeah, crazy how Barkley from 93 is on that list but Jordan, who thoroughly outplayed him, isn't

    Also missing Magic in 87, who got a 32.2 GameScore rounded but if we're not rounding, the Top 5 looks like this:

    LeBron 2016 (Games 5, 6, 7): 34.93
    Jordan 1993 (Games 2, 3, 4): 32.23
    LeBron 2018 (Games 1, 2, 3): 32.20
    Magic 1987 (Games 1, 2, 3): 32.16
    LeBron 2017 (Games 3, 4, 5)*: 32.10

    *Graphic lists 2017 LeBron games 1, 2 and 3 which is wrong. It's 3,4,5

    LeBron being 3/5 of the Top 5 isn't bad at all, not sure what's wrong with just putting accurate information as opposed to fake info and omitting things. Nothing wrong with that for this weird and random "3-game GameScore stretch"

    It's not "fake info" and thanks for updating me.



    And how is that "weird and random"

    I figured you were intentionally being dishonest, but if that's not the case then I won't call it fake info

    That said, it's "weird and random" due to it not being particularly relevant. Why is a 3-game stretch important? Why not just the series, which is what matters most in the Finals, right? Or, if you must go by "stretches", a 4-game would make the most sense seeing as that's whats needed to win. 3 great performances in a row and then a dud doesn't mean much if you lose

    Regardless though, if you're going to use GameScore, you may as well use PER as well

    MJ was 1-9 because he was facing a Warriors-level team with an 8 seed, yet still doing better than lebron's sweeps and record defeat with 2 seeds in 07/14/17/18 Finals (2-16 record)

    And Lebron missed the playoffs with the East all-star center on his team in 05'.. Whereas MJ never missed the playoffs when he had elite athleticism, and only had 1st round exits with 8 seeds, while Lebron's 9 seeds missed the 8 vs 1 matchup in 04 and 05'
