I didn’t get an answer from on this.... if somehow Houston wins this series but somehow losses in the Finals to say Biston, are you gonna claim Boston as a GOAT team????

I don’t even give a response to something that could never happen like that.

Well if that happens it’s bc GSW is GOAT and actually brought the A game v the first team they perceive as a threat all year. Maybe ever since Kevin been there. Remember they were never an underdog, ever, with Steph and Kevin on the court ‘Cept for the first two games of this series.

They have no chance v GSW or CC.


And CC has no chance against GSW. See the pending G sweep.

Based on your own logic, you can’t consider CC as a contender when they don’t have a chance against GSW. Facts is facts bubba.

It’s evident to anyone that Bron off court antics is why he didn’t get his MVP this year. His team just didn’t win enough. The locker room was in shambles. A lot of Guys in that team didnt want to play with him. it showed up in that on/off and w/l record.




JR Smith's net rating was -2.2 points per 100 possessions on the court in 2245 minutes played. His net rating with LeBron on the court (1967 mp) was -1.7 pts/100, and his net rating without LeBron on the court (278 mp) was -6.1 pts/100.

Green's net rating was +4.1 on the court in 1825 minutes. His net rating w/ LeBron on the court (1137 mp) was +7.9 pts/100, and his net rating w/o LeBron on the court (688 mp) was -2.2 pts/100.

Korver's net rating was +7.6 on the court in 1573 minutes. His net rating w/ LeBron on the court (955 mp) was +11.7 pts/100, and his net rating w/o LeBron on the court (618 mp) was +1.2 pts/100.

The only guy who had a negative net rating when off the court - implying they were worse than opponents when that guy was sitting - was George Hill.

You are cherry picking certain players. we are talking reg season where they had 50% roster turnover Cavs had over 20 something guys play this year easy. And you zone in on a couple that make you side look better. Fact: with Lebron off they played like a 38 win team for the whole reg season.

Didn't you predict a Pacers series win, then a raptors series win, and likely a Celtics series win.

You're taken about as seriously as Boom.
He's predicted Lebron to lose every series he's played for the last 8 seasons...no that is not a joke or exaggeration.

I'm pointing out that with guys they kept around all year, those individuals were better with LeBron on the court than they were without him.

Last year his off the court numbers suggested the Cavs were a 17-21 win team without him on the court.

That team was also -17.8 Net Rtg without Lebron in the playoffs last season, so probably like a 5 win team or something in the playoffs.

His antics were so bad that a team with worse overall players played better without him on the court than they did in 2016-17?

As you mentioned, Cleveland had a ton of roster turnover before the season and during it too. These guys simply weren't up to the pressure of playing for a championship.

It's easy to toil away in Utah or Boston where there is no pressure of a championship, but you come to Cleveland with LeBron and it's championship or bust. Some guys can handle it, some can't.

Or those franchises have people that actually get the best outta their players ( Snyder and Stevens) whereas Lebron doing it is kinda fake news.

I'd be mildly impressed with Harden if he showed up for game 4. I think he's going to fold like origami.
