KD played like a pussy last night. Two chances to contest a James drive, and he ducked out of the way both times.

Meanwhile, James has the greatest defensive play in Finals history to his name.

It's to the point that Lebron hate is a litmus test for stupidity or trolling.

Well, I hate to admit it, but I've noticed that Bama fans seem much more outgoing and, dare I say it, happier than my fellow LSU fans. When leaving football games, they are an especially jolly lot. Very odd.

Some people don't like Lebron. You'll deal with it and you'll be just fine.

I'm not an LBJ fan, but some of this nitpicking with him is a bit stupid.

I'm not a Lebron hater, but it's just part of the deal with sports heroes. They're going to have people that don't like them. Not many superstars are universally loved. But for some reason Lebron fans lose their shite if you cheer his losses. Only other guy I've seen on this board that draws that kind of reaction is Tiger Woods.

People hate Brady, Manning, etc. Lebron's not exempt.

You can tell who is alpha. KD is answering questions in stride, with more excitement. He seems to actually enjoy everything basketball. He'd answer every question if he was able to.

LeBron seemed like he wanted to be somewhere else. Kinda like he did on the basketball court in the last 2 minutes. He coulda used Kyrie to pass some questions off to.




Umm... Because Durant won and James lost so one is in a good mood and other is in a bad mood. Did you just come to Earth yesterday? First time interacting with human beings?

You'd have thought one of them had won the game and the other had lost, right?

Look, I am no James fan, but to make this anything more than winner and loser of a particular game is ridiculous.

Forget LeBron, the fact that you actually called Durant an Alpha is hilarious. Guy pulls the biggest pussy move of all time simply because he couldn't hack it as an Alpha or a Beta. He's relaxed and happy because he is the Charlie in GS and maybe behind Klay too in that locker room.

I have no dog in the fight but KD is no alpha. He's incredibly talented but he's weak minded. Going to golden state was a bitch move

He's strong minded enough to make a decision that would make him happy instead of making a move to please other people. Not going to GSW bc of what the comp721s of the world think? That would be weak minded.

Lebron skipping the press conference last game bc he didn't wanna wait his turn bc everyone has to appease him showcases the part of his personality that's always rubbed me the wrong way. Pleased to see him get sent home with a sweep.


Everyone already knew you didn't like Lebron.

His personality kinda sucks from what I've seen. Not the kinda guy you wanna have a beer with. That don't have an impact on how I view him as a hoops player tho.

Well if we're judging his decision by how happy he is, then sure. But if we're judging it based on how much grit and hard work it required, then it was a weak move. He took the easy way to a championship. That's his right to do that but it's just not very impressive

Greatest finals defensive play?

Tayshaun Prince had a run down block for Detroit at end of game. It was a game changing stunner. Chauncey, Rasheed and richard hamilton say his name at thanksgiving Grace. & even Darko Milicic has a ring.

Lebron did the same thing going to Miami. Lebron coulda been GOAT TBH if not for that. Durant as great as he is isn't GOAT material. That's why what Lebron did was worse IMO. Goes with mentioning that Lebron doing it paved the way for others to follow without facing the same backlash. So Lebron can thank himself for getting swept. No durant in GSW without Lebron goin to MIA IMO.

I agree that lebron to miami was also a bitch move but it wasn't nearly as egregious as KD to GS
