I still don't understand why rings are used to determine how good someone is. They are just as good with 5 rings as they are with 0. They are the same player regardless.

If you can't find any humor in Lebron fans whining about calls then I question your basketball intellect.


I hate Lebron, and this game has been called horribly. That is a fact. Funny hearing Mavs fans deny that the NBA Finals are influenced greatly by officiating.

Rings matter in the NBA IMO... as far as being the main guy.

Damn shame the refs robbed Dirk of one in 2006...

So one player in the last 30 years.

And a player who I have already said I consider to be the 2nd greatest ever to play the game.



did that guy think comparing Lebron to Magic Johnson would be an insult?

Oh so winning an NBA finals makes you a better player, but winning a Super Bowl doesn't? Damn that makes a hell of a lot of sense

Nah, Wade has already taken over. Just like he did at the end of game 1.

rings only matter in legacy. a player is the same player whether his team sucks or not. Are you tryin to say Kobe wouldn't be as good if he played on the crappy teams he was stuck on from 03-06 his entire career?

Same reason Marino and Ted Williams couldnt win. Top tier player, bottom tier front office.

Lebron AVERAGED 35/9/7 on 51% shooting in the playoffs 2 years ago and didn't win a title.

There's no fricking way that team could have won a championship. You can't play any better than he did.

There's no fricking way that can be held against him. You can't play any better than he did.
