Eh, they're in the same sport but I'm not sure they're in the same ballpark. Both were bitchmade, but...
Imagine LeBron joining Boston in 2011 instead of a fresh Miami team.
And on top of that, imagine all of those Boston players are in their prime. That's almost what KD did.
And to be fair, KD did have a squad around him... LeBron had an old big Z and Mo Williams...
The Cavs did LeBron dirty for the first 10 years of his career. And the ****ed up thing is he was good enough to keep them near the top of the conference with no lottery picks coming and probably no free agent signings either. If LeBron stays in Cleveland in 2010 I am fairly certain that the Cavs **** his career up to the point that he's still ringless.
KD had Westbrook... and while he might suck now, that has not always been the case.

There are mitigating circumstances. If someone first punches someone in the face and the other person pulls out a gun and shoots them. It’s not inexcusable but it can be more understandable.
LeBron started it. KD escalated it.
If LeBron could have done what KD did, he would have in a heart beat. And after KD escalated it, you know LeBron tried his hardest to one up KD but wasn’t able too.

But LeBron didn't really start it... the media and ignorants fans pushing the narrative the players suck ass if they don't win rings started it.

That is true to a point. KD fell victim to the same thing.

There are levels to it. Like I said, same sport... not the same ballpark. Imagine two guys find their wives cheating... one kills the wife. The other kills the wife and all of their kids and himself.
Levels to it.

The problem is LeBron ****ed over KD and the league with his collusion. KD responded.
Lebron set a new precedent. He set the whole thing in motion. You can argue that he HAD to do it. Still doesn’t change the fact that he did do it.

Wrong, the Celtics started it when McHale gave the Celtics KG for peanuts.

Not really as they were all aging past their prime.
But for arguments sake, sure.
LeBron still participated in it.
KD finished it.

And it actually started long before Lebron had a claim to anything. When exactly who's to say? But when Kobe's solo portion of his career began to take off it was definitely used by Mj stans to try and diminish his standing no matter how unnecessary it was. Maybe it inadvertently started with Mj and Magic Johnson because when Mj started winning Magic hit him with, let me know when you got 5 of em. Once Jordan had 6 we were comfortable putting him over any modern player while dismissing the 60s and 70s basically. Simple one minded way of viewing a complex game tho.

This was basically the crack in the dam for teaming up in the post 90s nba.

Bingo! What LeBron did doesn't compare to what KD did. And KD knows it, look how insecure he comes off and notice how he always take subtle jabs at the Warriors whenever he has a chance. He knows he made the weakest move ever for a superstar. Just ahead of Moses Malone joining the Sixers in 1982, but people didn't care back then because there was no social media and the NBA in general wasn't anywhere near as popular as it is today.

Wanna show me one post you made with the same energy when Bron made the decision? Or are you gonna try to argue what Boston did was worse than LeBron?
Keep it consistent my dude.
