The full script behind Colin Cowherd's statement
https://twitter.com/ColinCowherd/sta...25968318013440“In Miami year two – title. Went back to Cleveland year two – title. Came to Los Angeles year two – title. That’s what he does. Michael [Jordan] needed Scottie Pippen, LeBron just needs a ball,” Cowherd said.
“LeBron did not go to Golden State or to a stacked team that won a title without him. He went to three places and had to elevate each. Physically and emotionally and structurally.”
He also compared LeBron with Michael Jordan, who needed Scottie Pippen to win titles, per Cowherd. On the other hand, James was and is able to win titles with any team or coach.
“Michael Jordan needed Scottie Pippen. Michael Jordan needed Phil Jackson. LeBron needs the damn ball. He doesn’t need a system. He doesn’t need a coach. He doesn’t need a Robin. He had a small Robin [Kyrie Irving]. He had wing Robin [Dwyane Wade]. He had a big Robin [Anthony Davis].”

He needed AD to even make the playoffs, but Colin is known for being a consistent idiot.

Re: Colin Cowherd: "MJ needed Pippen, LeBron just needs a ball"
What a joke... Pippen absolutely never had a playoff run like AD did this year.
This is why 3ball makes threads about the media lying and distorting truth to promote a fake news agenda. They do it for things outside sports a lot too.

LeBron won without each and every one of those. Multiple times.

It took 3 years for Jordan to mold Pippen. Originally Posted by TheGoatest

Re: Colin Cowherd: "MJ needed Pippen, LeBron just needs a ball"
It always amazes me how people consistently take what guys like Cowherd & Skip say seriously. They intentionally say provocative things to get ratings and start discussions, he was 100% banking on people making threads about him saying this today

Exactly. They are (very) well paid trolls. Bayless in particular doesn't even really try to hide this fact. Originally Posted by SouBeachTalents

LeBron was in the finals with none of those players...Jordan never came close to the finals w/out Pippen. Originally Posted by Drygon

Yeah, Lebron didnt need AD, Wade, Kyrie, Bosh or Love to win titles.
Just a "ball"
