Your main problem with the nba is something that hasn't happened?

That's odd


My b. Your right, that hasn't all exactly happened yet. But it's trending towards that and that's just what everyone expects to happen

It is when one guy is infinitely better on defense.



But it's not infinitely. In fact Bird was known as a pretty damn good defender especially considering he wasn't nearly as athletic as Bron bron or others that he guarded. He had to rely on fundamentals way more than just pure athleticism which goes back to him having a better BBal IQ than LBJ too.

28 ppg is great for the regular season.

it's pretty good for a finals even.

You're acting like Bird was a shite bag on defense. he was 2nd team Defense 3 years in a row, which means he is plenty capable defender and he is tied with lebron on steals and blocks per.

It's not nearly as one sided on defense as you are acting like it is. The only years Bird was a liability on defense was when his back started failing him.

Please don't have stupid expectations for AD and criticize him for playing ridiculous basketball like you are for Lebron.

Not being a hater but Wilt, Bird, Magic, are all above him IMO

People arent saying LeBron isn't playing great basketball.

They are judging him on the GOAT scale... And by that scale he has been pretty damn good. But not greatest ever

Im the biggest Brow fan there is.

Im a lebron fan also, but I call it how i see it. Kids are calling lebron the best ever. already. and lebron's best is behind him already. it's laughable.

He's going to go down as the 2nd best player ever, but he can't be depended on, doesn't have resolve, and is lacking fundamentals.

This board is no more sports savvy than the tiger rant.

put the weed down, that's probably not gonna happen because of the reasons already listed above. He still has to leap several champions ahead of him.

You aren't very adept at keeping up with the context of the thread.

Sounded like Lebron said live in the president instead of present. Then made sure to say present a couple seconds later. I got a chuckle

Somebody look up how many minutes players like Bird, Magic, and MJ averaged in the finals and compare that to lebron.
