King James reigns supreme once again. Spoils Zion's and Ingram's second chance

Best player I've seen besides MJ...old man Bron telling youngin's to keep off his lawn still.

TLDR: down the stretch of tight games (last 5 minutes within 5 points), Lebron shot 41% on 3.0 attempts per game for his career (04-19'), compared 47% on 3.6 attempts for old MJ in 97' and 98' (20% more clutch attempts on much better efficiency).


CLUTCH - Playoff shots in last 5 minutes, within 5 points, since 2001

134-323 for Lebron.. 41.4%
108 games.. 3.0 attempts per game

Jordan 1997 Playoffs: 20-39.. 51.3% (11 games)
Jordan 1998 Playoffs: 22-50.. 44.0% (14 games)

42-89 for MJ.. 47.2%
25 games.. 3.6 attempts per game

And 0-8 in the championship for Lebron, compared to 4-8 for Jordan

LeGOAT

- Scoring (PPG)
- efficiency rating (PER)
- winning contribution (WS/48)
- box score stats (BPM)

^^^ MJ is #1 in all

so MJ owns the stats, modern era winning (6 "best player" rings), and clutch (see previous post)

Nah, this year is Giannis MVP.

But damn, LeBron at this stage of his career is still going strong. We gonn'a miss this when he retires.

haha no we won't

I'll be thrilled when people quit claiming the greatest player ever is allowed to be a perennial underdog and loser and need additional "playmakers" on his team

I'll be thrilled when that happens and will almost certainly start watching once this massive misperception, dumb thinking, and talent-based winning (team-hopping) is gone from our game

+22 is insane

Was +16 in a 2 point game at one point too

Absolute carry job

[bullettooth]

Why is the bar set so low for LeBron? We're supposed to be impressed that a veteran as great as LeBron beat up on a f*cking ROOKIE?

[Im so nba'd out]

17th season....still the same ole bron...ole$5 footlong James

No Wade No Ad No Kyrie vs (pretty much) charles barkley, young jason kidd, and Scottie pippen all on the same team


no help no problem.....king me

Absolute carry job

carry job?

lebron always needed an equal scoring and usage partner to win a ring, whereas MJ scored 10-30 more than his sidekick for every series of his career, while nearly doubling their usage

so no... not a carry job compared to the he goat standard.. instead, it's a shared load (equal scoring and usage partner... and closer)
