Gotta love the made up history though

Apparently the Lakers haven’t made the playoffs for 3 years even though it’s just been 1 year

Hell Lebron was hoisting the trophy less than 2.5 years ago lol

Haters will go to any extent to hate

He will miss the play offs 2 years in a row.

I said its been 3 years since he HAS made the play-offs. Reading comprehension though can be a difficult thing---like finding a team that works with LeBron.

 

[crudebar]

But don't worry all those times he beat the great Demar deRozen and Chauncey Billups will never be forgotten. Just classic ECF titan v titan match ups.

 

[crudebar]

O wait he did beat that Celtics team when Garrett missed the entire play offs and then the next year when he was on one leg.

I believe that was LeBron but could be wrong here...

I do remember him getting stomped by a Dwight Howard and that little guard from Saint Johns(forget his name) team in the ECF though...

Lebron is no question one of the greatest.

But a lot to be said when your game is that hard to build around. It can't ALWAYS be everyone else.

He seemed to acknowledge that with his "Maybe Its Me" tweet......Often times we're the last to know of our own flaws but you gotta respect self discovery.

I don't dislike LeBron.

I remember 10 plus years ago being drunk and a girl in a Chicago bar got in a heated debate with me about Derrick Rose being better than LeBron.

The competitiveness in me got the better of me. With the thought "fuck sex she is wrong and I can't let this go---over 2 people I have never met." Haha

I would much rather sit down and have a beer with LeBron than the anal Jordan. But as a basketball player his prime years were soooo much better both individually and team success. Its not close. He is as close to Jordan as kobe is to lebron.

All-NBA

Jordan: 11
LeBron: 18 (going to be 19 after this year, and probably more given how he's playing)


All-Defense - not as much of a discrepancy as people think, but of course the false narrative is LeBron doesn't play defense

Jordan: 9
LeBron: 6


Longest tenured teammate

Jordan: Scottie Pippen
LeBron: Zydrunas Ilgauskas


Longest tenured coach

Jordan: Phil Jackson
LeBron: Mike Brown


But of course, the argument is that LeBron played with more stars......yet the difference between top-75 players is just 6 to 4, and unlike LeBron, Jordan played with them in the middle of their prime for longer

And if you're gonna say he played with more stars, have to acknowledge LeBron played against FAR more stars in his playoff runs

Lebron's new record is great and all, but in the era of high scoring games we wont know how special it is till he retires. I do think he's in the conversation. It's him or MJ. I can't forget that there was a decade where when asked who will be in the finals, and it was that team vs whatever team Lebron is on. Seems he does better when he's the only diva on the team. Gretzky and MJ didn't do what they did with other divas, they had blue collar guys that paid the price for them. Maybe LBJ needs some solid blue collar guys.

The 3 has changed some things, but scoring is not going to continuously increase. We will see it ebb and flow a little bit, it has through history

The record itself will not go down for a lonnnng time, unless some GOAT-level generational freak enters the league....and even then, it's a stretch

LeBron will pad this record quite a bit given how he is playing

A guy like Giannis probably not going to be as durable as LeBron, plus his lack of shooting ability will likely lead to his game diminishing quicker once he loses some bounce

Luka would have to average like 30+ for 15 years in a row to even have a shot at it, and even that may not be enough (and would also not likely happen, even if this era)

Michael Jordan will always be the greatest. He had that swagger, total dominance, and almost never took off a game to sit on the bench, even when hurt or in pain. He may not have even taken 1 game off. I'd have to look that one up. He went out to destroy you EVERY game. Add to that he is 6-0 in the NBA finals. He played during the toughest years and against the toughest bad asses and smoked them all. Nobody come close to as great as he was. Everyone else is just almost as good and that's the way it will be forever.

In no particular order these were the five greatest NBA players. Wilt, Russell, Kareem, Jordan, and LeBron.

I want to point out that Wilt averaged 30ppg, 23 rpg for his career. In Wilt's best year he averaged 50.4 ppg and 25.7 rpg That is not a typo folks, he averaged 50 points per game in his best year.

I think Magic is only notable omission. If you put Magic in there, then you have the clear top 6 IMO

Bird probably 7

You never know who's behind that avatar. Yeah we are all mostly regular guys, but the RX has been around since the beginning. There has to be at least some B celebs that have posted here anonymously.

What’s incredible about LeBron is how he evolved so late in his career to become a more versatile scorer

Relied less on his athleticism and more on his body control, touch, and basketball IQ

The game still looks so easy to him. Pretty incredible that he knew he could easily get to 36 in Year 20.

He’s played way more than 20 seasons though considering the deep playoff runs/the fact that he’s been in the finals a whopping 50% of his career

dont follow basketball at all, but the bold applies to Federer as well Still elite well into his late 30's, actually was able to take Nadal out quite a few times on hardcourt by adjusting his game. Took the ball much earlier .

wtf

This is a record that will never be broken. Wilt Chamberlain averaged 50.4 points a game in his third year in the NBA in the 1961--1962 season.
