Well this is it gang. Tonight's the night. The Lakers will ascend back to the throne they havent been on in 10 years.
But tonight will be all about LeBron. He is gonna prove that NBA championship rings are completely WORTHLESS and OVERRATED for individual players. They do absolutely NOTHING to enhance your legacy. Completely meaningless. LeBron is a great player right now as of 9:23 AM EST and will be the exact same player tonight at 11PM. The notion that he is different because of tonight's game is BULLSHIT. NBA championship rings boosting an individual player is such a farce, I'm glad it ends tonight.
-LeBron will win his 4th chip and 4th Finals MVP. But next season, he will still be treated the same and his fans will be treated the same as when he had 0
-Devin Booker could win A ring next season, and he would receive more clout and respect than LeBron has ever received from NBA fans after winning 3-4. I've already seen it happen once.
-Bill Russell has 11 championship rings, most NBA fans cant tell you his 3 best performances as an NBA player. Sam Jones has 10, most NBA fans cant spot him out of a lineup. They are far more knowledgeable and versed on LeBron's career who has 6 Finals losses. He will be remembered more and longer than Russell despite not having as many rings. Truthfully, he already is, Russell is largely ignored.
-The only players who've ever enhanced their legacies off having "multiple" championships is Michael Jordan & Kobe Bryant. Literally no other NBA player who has multiple rings counts or is celebrated like those two. Prior to Jordan in 91, there is no article, media clip, book, etc that NBA fans can point to that stated to be the greatest or best you had to win "multiple" championships. The general consensus was if you won "a" ring, you were arguably one of the greats. The "rings are everything you need multiple" bullshit was totally created by Nike & Phil Knight to market the 2 players I listed, since they are aloof introverts and didnt have great personality traits or things they excelled at outside of basketball than can be marketed.
In the NBA, as a superstar, what you look like, what your handlers look like, who your family is and what they look like holds far more weight on your perception than NBA championship rings or Finals MVPs. NBA jewelers aint that important like that. I look forward to LeBron proving that once again tonight, and into next season. Players with less rings, less accolades, and who put on a lot less work will continue to get more respect than him off their appearance and perceived class level. Their fans will be treated in a different manner as well. Rings enhance franchises, not players.
Go Lake Show!!!
