lol at this guy still jock sniffing lebron

 

I mean you don't seriously believe that tripe that Wade is the best player on the Heat do you?

[SpongeWorthy]

How many times will Lebron have to lazily come off a ball screen and pass it to Chalmers so he can go stand in the corner in the most critical possessions of the game before you'll give him some grief?

i don't think anyone really does but that doesn't mean he wasn't modeled from clay by a rabbi for the purpose of protecting jews in the akron ghetto.

I don't even get it, but I laughed.

I don't feel the need to give him grief when everyone this side of his mother already is(busy banging D-West high out of her mind)

 

Yes, he had a shitty game, ho hum.

SSR, I promise you that one day a player will come around and he will shape reality to his will and everyone who worshiped MJ will be rounded up and forced to watch game 6 of the 1995 eastern conference semis for all eternity and their brains will explode but only a little every single day so they can stay alive and keep dying at the same time. One day a player so great that he will sweep all that came before him into ignominy and all of the great players yet alive will castrate themselves before an altar bearing his likeness. The tall will become short and the good-looking will singe their faces, golden idols will be built and he will ravish many vestal virgins in the temple of poseidon. the true king will return and save us from this wicked dictator with the hitler stache and the baconless neck.

 

it's just not lebron. have patience.

[Old Style]

LeBron is probably the greatest player on the planet right now, but he doesn't have the killer instinct like the truly legendary players do. He had 8 points last night and now has a total of nine 4th quarter points through four Finals games. He is not the go to guy in crunch situations on his team and he appears to be OK with that. It's making me think that is why he chose Miami over the Bulls. He figured he would have to be "the man" in Chicago not realizing how great DRose would turn out to be.

i don't think lebron is that self-aware.

So did he lose the killer instinct after spanking the Bulls?

So because Jordan had 1 bad game about 2 months after not playing basketball for 18 months, LeBron will win 6 championships and develop a killer instinct?

 

Got it.

[UMFan83]

Damn. LeBron may be a better player because of consistency. But Wade at his best is better than LeBron as his best.

 

What? No.

 

Wade [expletive] all over the floor in the Bulls series, and now Bulls fans are all too eager to declare him the leader of Miami because of a couple games in the finals. The Heat might not have made it past Boston without LBJ. God only knows what people would be saying if Lebron had Wade's game but lost the final possession in the same manner. LEBRON CAN'T CLOSE OUT, CHOKES WHEN IT MATTERS MICHAEL JORDAN LET ME SUCK YOUR DICK

 

Cleverly props up Celtics........check

Makes 'Bulls fans give MJ God-like qualities' reference........check

Gold star for playing big in the conference finals. Now why does he seem to disappear on the biggest stage of all?

Yet Wade is the greatest even though he "disappeared" in the round to get to the "biggest stage of all?"

Saying the Celtics MIGHT have won without great play from the best player ever is propping them up?

Patrick Ewing had some killer Conference Finals once too.

Mediocre LeBron (assuming that is who you are calling best player ever) would have been enough to beat the Celtics. Heck NBA Finals LeBron would have been enough.

Fine then use the Heat's thrashing of the Bulls instead.

[Magnetic Curses]

lebron james isn't even the greatest oscar robertson ever.

[SouthSideRyan]

I will say Robertson seems woefully underrepresented in the greatest of all time arguments. If he played when people gave a [expletive] about the NBA he'd be right up there I'm sure.

By 11 total points?

 

Edit: Of course I know we got thrashed, and the Celtics lost their series by a similar margin I think, but arguing with you is so fun.
