Lol. Klay Thompson saved his arse this series.


Lulz, as if we forget LeBron didn't play with Wade, Bosh and Ray Allen.

I'd take LeBron because of his consistency. You basically know what you're getting every game. Steph can go hot and cold, even if he does mostly run hot. (Though as someone else said, Klay takes a lot of heat off Steph during games.)

Plus peak LeBron was an absolute lockdown defender. Steph isn't bad, but he's not taking on assignments.

Peak LeBron was the best offensive and defensive player on his team over multiple years.

Lebron can cover just about anybody in the NBA. Curry can cover about 2 players on any team. Lebron is a better player. The flip side is that Curry can close extremely well where as Lebron can't.

Yep people get to caught up in the moment. Mid 20s Lebron was an absolute monster at both ends.

Yeah, it's not like I'm saying its a slam dunk...people will disagree. Notice I didn't say "curry is the better all around player". I'll take what he does on offense and the way he inflates the other team over what LeBron does.

Ray Allen.
I don't know why people say Ray Allen like it was prime Ray. LeBron played with a Ray Allen that couldn't defend a rocking chair. It was such a struggle for those Heat teams to make it out there defensively with Ray. That's why we never saw Ray again after the 2014 Spurs series.

LeBron won 66 games with Mo Williams as the second best player on his team. Enough said.

Can you even name another player on the 2007 Cavaliers team that won the Eastern Conference?

I'm a pretty big NBA buff and I could only think of three without looking it up. That team started Drew fricking Gooden, it was easily the worst conference champion in NBA history.

So you think Curry is marginal on any other NBA team too?

Did Wade (or Bosh) never take heat off of LeBron?

I really don't get why people are using Klay as a negative. LeBron has never won a ring without Wade or Bosh. You need good players to win a title.

People are acting like Curry is just sitting there hitting open spot up jumpers all season long.

Saying stupid shite like this is a good way to get me to ignore all of your future NBA opinions
