If the Lakers lost AD early in this series i would still give the Lakers a chance to win. If they lost Lebron you can just about forget about it.

It's really that simple.

Have a best player leave a team, receive nothing in return, and many will be lottery picks as well.

Lebron left the HEAT and they made it to game 7 in the 2nd round just 2 years later.

Just 6 years later, they're back in the SHIP.

Cleveland hasnt recovered b/c they franchise is fun by poop

bingo

plus, Cleveland spent 15 years catering their roster to Lebron or planning for Lebron and he bent them over and fucked them twice unexpectedly. Because he's a shitty human being and not a real man.

Lebron is just as much of a reason that Cleveland sucks dick right now as he was the reason they were good.

AD actually plays defense. Defense is kind of important in the playoffs.

Anthony Davis always reminds me of Kevin Love in Minnesota who also plays top level defense.

What always fascinated me with Anthony Davis is if you asked 30 gms who they would take Davis or Harden i would guess almost all 30 would take Davis. Yet Davis could never lead the pelicans anywhere. He won one play off series. Yet Harden was in the play offs every single year. Were those rockets teams really all that better than those pelicans teams? I mean hell, some of those years the rockets 2nd best player was dwight howard.

Davis is the perfect 2nd banana.

Just my take.

Thats the first I’ve ever heard that Kevin Love plays defense much less top level defense .

The hate for LeBron is not baseless.

I don't think Kawhi Leonard is the best player in the NBA.

Shit, LeBron isn't even the best player on the Lakers.

Yeah you cant be objective. You have no idea what youre talking about if you think AD is better than Lebron

AD gets the stats he does BECAUSE of lebron

Anthony Davis PER rating in 2018-2019 (without Lebron): 30.3

Anthony Davis PER rating in 2019-2020 (with Lebron): 27.4

Yeah. Davis only puts up numbers because he's with Lebron.

Are you a retard?

Kids. Reading comprehension. Anthony Davis plays top level defense. Kevin Love for the most part plays terrible defense. Offensively what Davis does and what Love use to do in Minnesota is comparable. Ala Davis reminds me a lot of Kevin Love in Minnesota who also plays top level defense. It's not a put down. Love was a beast in Minnesota. Never could win anything as Davis with the Pelicans. Love was a decent 2nd/3rd banana. While Davis is the perfect 2nd banana.

AD has had a better playoffs to date than LeBron, but when it is winning time like shutting the door on Denver, LeBron is still the guy. Guarded Murray down the stretch of game 5 and then exploded w/ virtuoso performance in gm 6. He turns 36 in 3 months so he is pacing himself more.

It is easy to say AD is better because the bill won't really come due. Easy cop out. If you say Kawhi or Harden is better, well they have to play eventually in a lot of instances and then we see how that goes. When GS had the upper hand, people would say Curry or KD was better because the Warriors were gonna win so I guess you can't conclusively be wrong.

If their life was on the line and 2 equal teams were playing 1 with LeBron and 1 with 1 of these other guys over a sample size of 1000....Probably not going to be the same level of conviction there.

Wait, you're making the argument that Lebron steps up in big moments in the playoffs? Now that's one I've never heard... steps up and passes it, you mean?

Didn't pass when he put 37 on the Spurs in game 7 in 2013. He has a long resume of big playoff games, he had one like 3 days ago for christ sakes. You don't even watch basketball which you repeat every chance you get. Why are you pretending you have knowledge in this subject? You're citing PER out here like it is 2009. C'mon bro.

Do I need to list all his big playoff games in high leverage spots? For what? We really need to debate how good LeBron is? That's a discussion that needs to be had?

didn't see he only puts up numbers cuz of bron. Hes gotten way better opportunities in LA beacuse of him. hes gotten empty calorie stats his whole career.

how is the team when lebron is off the floor?

how good were those Pelicans in 2018-19?

James harden gets good stats too; not half the player lebron is.

probably should cite MJ's woeful shooting in finals, or kobe nearly choking game 7 of the finals against the celtics - go look at his stats in that game

are you one of those morons that thinks kawhi is better?

Lebron is a phenomenal game 7 player; always has been. Much better stats in the clutch than historically overrated players like Kobe

but your counterargument will be something like he "lacks killer instinct" or some bullshit like that

When was the last year you watched basketball? This was true circa 2007.

No issue with anyone saying MJ is the goat. that very well could be; i just happen to think lebron is a little better historically.

but theres no credibility when you start saying shit like "kobe is better than lebron" or "kawhi is the best player in the nba", or "AD is the best player on the lakers.
