Says more about the East than anything.

Shut the frick up. You can literally say this about ANY player who won multiple championships!

Jordan had tons of help in Pippen. Some nice players beyond that too. He also didn't run to form a super team to win either.


You and your ilk are such a joke. Why does it matter how the players got on the team? Help is help.

All the respect to LeBron for going home and winning, but to compare his time in Miami to Jordan is laughable.


Really? Why is that?

Fair, but it's still true. If you're not playing with him, you're not playing in the championship for a while.

Because he plays in the East.

Does LeBron have to beat another 73 win team to calm this narrative down?

Lebron staying in the East


That's not a lot of competition either.
He doesn't face the Spurs, thunder, etc each year.

You're right, but he still has to beat them in the Finals.

There were 8 total teams in the league in 1956.

I'm not trying to diminish what Lebron did, that was one of the most incredible Finals performances every, but c'mon. Kyrie Irving played out of his mind those last 3 games. Without either one of them this was a gentlemen's sweep for the Warriors

Kareem?

You mean the 4th option & 40/41 year old(87/88) Kareem who was barely top 5 player in the Lakers rotation & sharing minutes with Mychal Thompson in 87-88?

That Kareem?

The same Kareem who retired & the Lakers immediately improved & Magic carried them to the finals again the following season only to lose to the Bulls?



No disrespect to 4th option 40/41 year old Kareem ,but those back to back rings......

Not really, they don't win without a huge 3rd qtr from JR Smith and of course Kylie Irving



but you're not a Cavs fan, you are a LeBron fan. Don't really vibe with that kind of thinking so enjoy your thread

Jordan really carried that D-League team when they made that 6 ring run....

If LeBron James is on your team as of the last 6 years, you were in the finals. This will be the case for the next several years as well.

He is the best all around player ever. People need to accept that and move one


Enjoy the fact that you get to watch it

ACTUALLY, I don't really watch basketball that much. Don't really care either way.

However, the few playoff games I watched, I enjoyed seeing two guys like James and Curry play. Respect both of them.

I just find the dislike of LeBron James to be comical, and knew this would draw the ire of some.
