Am i the only one who finds it funny that Lebron got RJ out here making excuses for him? My god what a freaking lame.

You had a bad game on Sunday. Eat it and move on

wait...you are moving way too fast. You are the only one that thinks Lebron needs his teammate to stick up for him having a bad game :laugh3:

You do realize if the Cavs don't win 4 of 7 vs the Warriors, everything that happened in the East means nothing right

ill admit i havent paid alot of attention. i did tune in and watch him defer to kyrie after the bad game. its moments like these he chose to join first wade and then the cavs once they got better players. (bailed out with multiple #1 picks) sure lebron is great. im NOT one of the ones that puts him in the top 5 or something like that. stats are cool i guess. in the end if you went to finals and lost more than you won then that says something. get on stage say not 1 not 2, not 6 not 7, that says something else. lebron is clyde drexler or dominique wilkins without jumping to teams chasing rings early in career. he stays in cleveland he just a stat stuffer. now he can just fold his arms and watch kyrie but up points and make finals clinching shots for him.. much like ray allen. LESHORTCUT at its finest
Oh, I agree.

He is a serial team stacker....lol

But, no way is he the Beta on that Team......yet.

Dude has had the best Season of his career this year.

As for the boasting, he earned all the vitriol he gets.

I'm in the middle on the losing in the Finals discussion.

Magic lost.

Jerry West lost.

Bird lost.

Shaq, Kobe, Duncan ....all lost.

So, I only hold that against him when we are debating GOAT status.

He can never catch Jordan in that particular discussion.

But, if he beats these Warriors?

I won't like if others think he's at the top of the Mountain.

It puts him in the convo.

Im hoping Cavs finish it off tonight, all healthy, so we can 'handshake' on our bet.

Lets agree to terms now?
$3500 vcash on series and 30 day avi.

Ok?

If they lose, all your boasting goes in the same trash receptacle.

Hedge all you want.

If they don't win the Chip, that huge payroll puts them squarely in the failure category.

No silver lining if they lose.

But, if they win?

Lebron's greatness/superiority will no longer be debatable unless you are a hater.

me hedging?

i said that their defense in the regular season wouldnt cause them problems in the East....

now that it hasnt- people have changed their standard to-- WELL- what about the finals?

Was i right that their REGULAR SEASON defense would not matter at all in the East and not cause them to extend series?

ABSOLUTELY

i totally agree - no one was dumb enough to say the Cas would lose in the East--- but plenty of people said the would have a harder time in the East ecause of their regular season defense---- and that has turned out- JUST AS I SAID IT WOULD- to be complete and total stinking bullshit.

Right?

if LeBron got in a car crash tomorrow and never played another game- would his "greatness and superiority " be questioned or debated by anyoe besides a hater anyway?

@Mecca

assuming the Cavs win tonight and do not sustain any serious, material injuries- you want to take a bet on the Finals?

Right?
You also keep reminding us that the regular season MEANS NOTHING.

Yes, you were right. They hit a switch, and turned it on outside of that first loss.

But, to be fair, nobody questioned their ability to get thru the East, just that it would be harder.

So far, that was a false belief.

But, The real question was always could they surpass the Warriors.

Also, if they have lapses against the Warriors, like they did the last 2 contests against the Thomas-less Celtics, they will go to the Locker room down by 30, instead of 14.

That's a whole nother level.....

And a realistic concern...imo
