If Jordan gets a pass for 95, why doesn't LeBron for this year

[Crown&Coke]

dude came back late in the season.
other than maybe 3 players, the rest of the guys had never played with MJ
pick up games is not NBA games
Jordan couldn't even get #23 due to it being retired
Bball shape doesn't happen in the blink of an eye

MJ getting a pass? I think he earned that "pass"

LBJ is a terrific player, but we need to stop comparing him to MJ, Bird, Magic, Big O.... he is a different player, and should be treated as such. The stans are killing him with their blowfests, and the haters are killing him for every mistake. Stans gone stan, and haters gone hate, but let the man play ball and enjoy it while it lasts

[AMISTILLILL]

Yeah, both seasons are definitely comparable.

KObe fans.

Excellent point. Haters won't listen though. Lebron is getting jobbed by having to deal with Spo, no bosh, and a terrible D-Wade.

Best player in the league has to deal with a bad team just like the cavs days.

Stop being salty cause you made a RETARDED prediction.

He wasn't proclaiming 100 guaranteed championships like LBGAY.

[RaininTwos]

"Not 1, not 2..." and "Once the games start, its gonna be easy!"

These two statements right here pretty much took away any right he has to a pass. When you're gonna write a check with your mouth, make damn sure your ass cashes it, son.

I gave him his pass in Cleveland, to be honest. He worked his ass off for that franchise and the best they could do was "Here's Antawn Jamison and a guy named Booby. Make it happen!"

Sometimes I wonder if I saw a different video than everyone else. dude was just trash talking to get the crowd hype, people still clinging onto his words years later like he's Cervantes.

Dudes act like Jordan was away from the game for 10 years....it was a year and a half and he was in his prime still playing pickup with nba and college players

He only played 17 games that year.

Real talk.

Jordan lost in 95 without an inside rebounding/defensive presence PF like LeBron is now.

Jordan put up better playoff stats in 95 than 96, 97, or 98.

Jordan was coached by Phil Jackson, LeBron has Spoelstra

LeBron is losing to a battle tested championship veteran team.

Jordan lost to a team led by two 3rd and 2nd year players.

LMFAO @ this troll.

[El Kabong]

He only played 17 games that year.

He did beat the Monstars though. That has to count for something.

Had to correct this. Jordan CHOSE to wear 45 because that was his baseball number. He was starting fresh and wanted to wear that number.

By the time the playoffs started, he changed to 23 against NBA rules and got fined for it every game he wore it, because you can't change numbers during the season. Had nothing to do with it being retired because it was HIS number. HE chose to wear 45.

19 games.

[I.R.Beast]

Wade - 22ppg, 46%fg, 5 rebs, 5 assists 1.2 steals and 2 bpg

Westbrook 18 ppg 37%fg 6 rebs 7 assists 1 stl 1 bpg.


Durants side kick has been statically worse than Wade..... Wade has had bad 1st halves, still a whole half to go in which all these games were tight and wade played well.

STOP MAKING EXCUSES!!

No, dickhead troll, it was 21 months, not 18 months. That's nearly 2 years. He played 21 games total before the Orlando series and wasn't in game shape, or game sharp, at all.

I hate you

Thx for the correction

There is just to much expectations from Lebron.... from me aswell...

But the way i see it is like this... i only want Lebron to perform up to his standards (which he is doing right now)... winning a championship is a team accomplishment, so everything else is completely out of his hands.... how his teammates make shots, pass, rebound, hustle, block, steal, deflect, defend is COMPLETELY out of his hands.... a player can control only how HE plays.. he can help his teammates get better shots by facilitating or he can motivate them with his speech.... but the talent-skill their teammates have cant miraculously get boosted...

Many people refuse to get this and act like a championship is the act of one man.... if that was the case, if this was a 1 on 1 game, believe you me Lebron would had at least a couple of championships right now...

PAUK please just shut up...we always hear how james makes this person better that perosn better. HE MAKES THEM WORSE.....the NBA will always be a CLOSERS league...james dont have what it takes.
