Yeah because they were loyal to their teams and didn't leave in the first place


Nope...same reason why AD will end up leaving NOLA, unless something dramatic happens....small market teams cant thrive, the ones that do are a dime a dozen...and if you are top athlete you want to take your talents to a MAJOR market so you can help your brand grow...

MJ goes to Portland in the draft way back when is he the MJ we know to love and adore?....hmmmm...Chicago had a huge role in his growth both as a player and his JORDAN BRAND....

Cleveland is NOT Lebron's hometown

It's close enough to be considered his hometown for basketball purposes

LBJ will never be as good as MJ. MJ never lost 3 finals.


When LeBron's career is over he will have 4-6 rings and have double the finals appearances.....just sayin

its very silly to compare right now who is better etc...LeBron is only 30...plenty left to go, stay tuned

so a kid from Kenner, LA won't claim that New Orleans is his hometown if he got to play for the Saints?

GTFO with your pathetic trolling abilities....I really don't have to explain it, if you cant figure it out you really are that pathetic

Yep. MJ was drafted to the Bulls and stayed with the Bulls.

Magic was drafted to the Lakers and stayed with the Lakers

Lebron going to Miami didn't make him a bigger name. It actually probably hurt him a little bit.

If he had gone to Portland and Chicago had come calling, he'd have gone.

Loyalty? Loyalty my arse. He had a coach who is top 5 of all time, Pippen, Rodman et. al.

Who cares?

MJ is MJ. Who else is Jordan?

LeBron will be second when it is all said and done. I would say that's pretty amazing he lived up to the hype and even surpassed it.

I wish Love was healthy, it would make this series closer. I don't see this lasting more than 5 games. I hope it goes 7, though.

Ya staying "loyal" living in L.A. and playing with losers like Abdul-Jabbar, Worthy, and Shaq was hard.

So he will have less with more?




























That is not a good argument to use.

whether he wins 10, or wins 6 its still a great accomplishment to do what hes doing.....not many players can do what hes doing and make those around him better...

W/out Kyrie, w/out Love.....LeBron has made role players, IMPACT players...Delly? LOL, seriously? Kid is a scrub on most teams....

Really he was part of the BIG3 and they only had a 50% winning percentage in the finals.

He is also in the east. Now if he dominates the Warriors like he did the Hawks I might be impressed.
