So now he goes to the finals and gets blown out again. Nice legacy Lebron.


Not if Chris Paul comes back and Houston upsets Warriors. They are perfectly capable of it at home. I wouldn't bet money on it though.

The Chris Paul tweaks hamstring again early in Finals and now Cavs have somewhat of a chance. Not that far fetched. Chris Paul is injury prone.

Most probably Warriors finish off Rockets and sweep or gentleman's sweep Cavs. I'll be rooting for Rockets to win against Warriors. Can't stand Durant.

Lol......absolutely not! The Bills went to 4 str super bowls, but lost all 4.

Kobe Bryant is a better player than Lebron.....5 rings in 7 tries......& with the same team, like Jordan, Montana & Brady.

Lebron left Cleveland just to win a title......he's not even on my top 5 players of all time.

I agree. I hate how Lebron loves always compare Lebron to Jordan. (Lebron won't ever catch Jordan and it's a joke that people ever debate this) But what about Kobe? All of a sudden we forget about Kobe Bryant?! That guy was the man. 5 rings! All with the same team as Compter Group mentioned.

I think a lot of people are living in the moment. They aren't watching Kobe light it up anymore and probably never watched Jordan play. They are watching Lebron accomplish incredible things and are ready to declare him the GOAT. No. He's great but he's not better than Jordan. And people need to stop disrespecting Mama by automatically skipping him over.

JC!!! Just stop now, Kobe is barely a top 10 or maybe even not in the top 20. The Championships he won were with Shaq and a couple of other stacked teams. Give it a rest please.

The next time someone insists Kevin Love is some sort of top tier player, remind them of last night's game.

Yahoo article from Kobie Bryant: He says the argument of Jordan vs Lebron is senseless and will never be settled.. Why can't we just enjoy today's talent. I think that sums up my feelings well.

You're kidding right? You don't know basketball if you think Kobe isn't top 10. It was Shaq who won rings cause of Kobe and then Dwayne Wade. Kobe is a megastar and he won without Shaq. Shaq couldn't win without another megastar. Dwayne Wade carried that Miami team.

Give it a rest with the JC stuff lol. You're wrong.

No man. I'm not going to argue with somebody that thinks Kobe isn't top 10. Lol. It's like arguing with a child. I'm out.

Kevin Love was always overrated. Never liked his game.

Why are guys playing with Lebron's balls after this win? He beat a team with two All Stars out with Terry Rozier starting at PG. I mean, come on.

Are you saying the Celts weren't a good team? He beat a good team without homecourt playing with a bunch of scrubs and clearly had very minimal margin for error the entire series thus we can reasonably say his intrinsic value as a player is extremely high.

Anything else is just fluffy stuff.

Well the reality is it was a team without a superstar which is uncommon .. annnd lebron being a mega star ..

The Celts had homecourt, a better coach and I think we can reasonably say the next 5-6 best players in the series after LeBron. Atleast for the last 2 games w/ Love out.

I mean, he had to play great to win the last 1.5 months or else he wouldn't have won. Not sure what else you want to see out of a great athlete other than them having no margin for error and still delivering.

Jeff Green had as good of a game as anyone on the Celtics, except maybe Tatum.

Yeah, because he's on the court with LeBron. Jeff Green would be borderline to get into the Celtics rotation. And that's being generous.

When I say 5-6 of the best players in the series, I mean the actual caliber of the players. Not how they played in 1-2 games.

Better said, if you did a league-wide draft for the 2017-2018 NBA season based on the way guys have played, besides Love (who was hurt the final 2 games) the next 5-6 guys taken would be Celtics.

The C's quite possibly may have been bounced in the 1st round if they played in the West.

Celtics best player is a 20 year old Jason Tatum.
