Wow shel is melting

a dude who won an MVP is getting praised for literally doing one good thing in a game 7 tells yiy all you need to know about how respected he is


It is like he forgot in game 7 v GSW Lebron miss about 5 shots in the last 5 minutes, and made none. And was bailed out by Kyrie Irving. But was praised for “literally doing one thing good”. Which just so happened to be a block. My goodness. You hate to see it.

My memory is a little fuzzy. Was Lebrons block in the NBA finals versus a 73 win team versus Hardens block being round 1 on an undrafted rookie FA for a rebuilding team?

His block was on iggy who had tweaked his back and had to be helped outta bed that morning. Also that series would have been over in 5 if not For the green suspension. Oh and then Andrew bogut got hurt and was out. On and also Steph was banged up badly.

Lebron was terrible at the end of a close out game. And got bailed out by his teammates.

Stunning lack of self awareness he must have been drinking.

He could sweep the Lakers and I’d still be on the right side of the debate that is Harden in the playoffs.

Harden did not have a good game and he literally said he was shite on offense last night however I think he is getting too much shite for the last 4 minutes.

Yes, I want him to have more big dick energy but I have to accept he isn't that guy.

He did take control after westbrook was playing awful hero ball at the end of the third/begining for the 4th. At 94-91 harden had 3 assist and 4 points, he was making the right plays. It wasn't the xanax harden choke job

The defensive play Harden made is actually being underrated. He covered Adams on the post to force the pass to Dort then closed out for the block.

That’s a lot of text to avoid answering the question and saying Lebrons block was NBA Finals against a 73 win team and Hardens was round 1 against an undrafted FA on a rebuilding team

Harden is a first team all defense kinda guy in the postseason. Cc #1 D in the league in the bubble. The guy is just a winner. Whatever it takes.

By my count when he is not up against GOAT he is now 7-1 in his last 8 playoff series.

Flop City is going to get obliterated next round. Congrats on literally squeaking by a team projected to win 30 games in round 1.

you can add all the qualifiers you want, lebron sucked at the end of that game. Kyrie bailed him out. lebron had a block, that’s it. Wasn’t anywheres close as a good of a block that harden had.

Flop City


Chris was an embarrassment To the game of basketball throughout the series with his flops.

Okc lost to a team whose second best player shot 18% from 3 for 6 games.

Shhhh, all these guys “who understand the game” are telling you he didn’t step up when it mattered.

And the downplaying of how good OKC is after they were eliminated is hilarious.

4th best team in the west. A count hair behind lakers imo.

Guys like Adams and gallinari would have had a much bigger impact in a series v an opponent who played a more traditional play style.
