Only problem I have with this sentiment is he is saying this now that Bron has surpassed him. When Bron was ringless Kobe and MJ stans reveled in the comparisons. They wasnt hollaring that "lets appreciate them all" shit or "Bron hasnt played as many games" excuses like they saying for MJ now.
 
Time and time again in sports we have seen cases of “happy to be there”. The second half of that game we saw Boston say we are a young team and we are just happy to be here they made some bad choices on the court and it wasn’t because the Cavs had some lockdown defense in them

Scott Foster ref’ing tonight with Mike Callahan and Derrick Stanford

Gonna be an uphill battle for GS... Draymond Green gotta be easy cause Foster gonna def T him and and try to throw him out the game

It was an uphill climb anyway. Winning a Game 7 on someone elses floor aint easy. Aint no Bill Russells or Brons on that roster. They better maintain a 20 point lead all game if they wanna win.
 
Basically Houston used the only formula to beat Golden State. It is the same formula the Cavs used on steroids. Slow the game way down by shooting with a few seconds left on the shot clock, which severely limits possession. Play physical defense on the wings and switch all down screens and pick in rolls which disrupts the motion offense.

After you ugly up the game you need to great iso players who can make tough shots down the stretch like Kyrie/Lebron and Harden/CP3.

I thought they were gonna start doing that after halftime in Game 6 but they just choked. Nobody was switching, after every 3 from the Warriors the Rockets defenders were looking at each other blaming the other the one

Philly was a red hot team with a great defense on its way to the finals until they got beat and suddenly became an overrated team.

THANK YOU!!! Dudes talked about “THE PROCESS” for 2 straight weeks and then when they lost all of a sudden they are overrated.

When does undisputed come on

He’s clowning today..lol

Can’t agree with that GS still have way more talent than Houston and a championship pedigree..

I expect them to win however it is well known Scott Foster is biased against GS and just out right fuckery with him

Mike was a great player and scorer he has

Jordan is a great player and probably the best scorer I've watched . However MJ is similar to KD and Kobe often had the chance to play along another top 5 player in the league. Best off ball defender and coach. Lebron is all of that in one.
I often say MJ stats proves he is the greatest but if you watch old films of him in the 90s playoff games Marv Albert was calling him the greatest player of all time after 3 championships. It was repeated so much that it became indisputable. It was marketing genius on the part of NIKE, Gatorade, McDonald's etc. Much like Muhammad Ali is the greatest boxer of all time and Biggie Smalls greatest rapper and Michael Jackson is the greatest entertainer. How are considered the GOAT when you quit on your team two times because you "lost interest" You obviously dont have the respect of the game and those players you have played with in the league. I maybe the one person in this world over 35 that mot really a Jordan fan. I appreciate his game, competitive drive, his win at all cost, but there is something that always turned me off about Jordan.

Its real simple for me.

Coach K has won the most games in college basketball history, not the best coach ever to me.

Emmitt Smith is the all time leading rusher, not the best rb in history to me.

Floyd Mayweather retired undefeated, not the greatest boxer in history to me.

There is nothing Lebron can do, to make me believe that Lebron is the best player I have ever seen in my life. If I was much younger, I probably would be a little more excited about Lebron's game, accomplishments, and competition.

I have not heard over 10 current or past pro basketball players, coaches, or teammates say that Lebron is the best basketball to ever play the game.

Listen. If Bron wants to win more chips the easy way, he's going to Philly. After KD pulled is bitch shit, no one would care if Bron went to philly as long as he doesn't do that 2010 attention whore shit. We know he won't.

Even if he gets a chip this year, I support him going to philly and turning GS to dust for sure. Fuck KD.

Still not the same. Warriors were a championship team that had already had a 72 win season previously. Philly has talent but you still have to make it all work.

How many players said jordan was the best while he was playing?

At the end of the day Jordan still owns a NBA team*

Why jeopardize a job opportunity for simply saying lebron is better publicly?
 
Um bro LeBron wins easily with that bulls team. People forget when Jordan retired Bulls won 2 fewer games and still went to conference finals

Stop saying this stupid shit. it's a myth that keeps getting repeated. The Bulls without Jordan won ONE playoff series. They DID NOT make it to the conference finals. They lost in the semifinals and that's when Pippen had his meltdown about not getting his number called for the last shot.

Niggas be like "they almost made the finals without Jordan"...nigga they won one series against a bum ass squad. that's it.

You were saying?

This is why I don't like dudes like you.

:confused: What I said was true at the moment. Don't act like you went out on a limb by saying Lebron would be back in the NBA Finals. He's done it 8 straight times now. I never said he wasn't going to make it but moreso "They haven't made it yet". So there was nothing wrong with my statement.
 


He lost his best two players (on paper... Tatum >>> the white boy though) and was a quarter away from reaching the Finals. That was some great coaching. But as I said when the series hit game 4.. the Celtics had to win that game.. you can't turn it into a 3 game series when they're facing a team with championship pedigree... Lebron has been there and knows how to win those games.. Celtics out there starting multiple rookies.. dude did a hell of a coaching job
