J.J. coached a horrendous series. Plays his starters till they fall out in game 4 and leaves Jaxson Hayes on the bench and watches Goebert turn into Wilt.

This is now the fourth time LeBron has lost a playoff series with homecourt advantage, something that never happened with Jordan.

It's also the fourth time he's lost a playoff series with a teammate averaging 25 PPG in the series. But LeBron apparently never has enough help.

From now on, anyone trying to make Jordan/LeBron seem like a plausible debate will be dismissed out of hand like a flat earther.
Jordan didn't do dick after age 35

LeBron every bit as good a career homes

"He came out of retirement to fight Rocky Marciano! Joe Louis was 76 years old!"

Nah, Jordan is and will always be a better player than LeBron … 6 titles, 3 in a row twice and getting the MVP every time … Jordan also 3 times in his career got the season MVP, all defense, led the league in scoring, finals MVP… No player in history has done that, Jordan did it 3 times… LeBron is a great player, great career, but it baffles me people have the opinion he’s at Mikes level…

The Lakers franchise never lost a first round series when they were seeded third or higher...until now.

In non-bubble playoff games, LeBron is 12-19 as Laker. So to anyone who takes offense to those of us who use the bubble as an asterisk, you can eat a bag of dicks.

Such a stupid post.

He is 40 first of all.

Jordan missed the playoffs at age 39 playing for the Wizards.

Secondly, the Lakers won 1 more game than the Wolves. This is a pick em series.

The Lakers lose just as I start to root for them.

Silver knows I called him a rat faced weasel.

Lebron didn't do shit and looked cook.

He is 40 years old.

He averaged 25, 9 and 6 and made many key defensive plays throughout the series.

There is not a player in the history of the league that has been anything close to what LeBron is at 40.

Clearly still an all NBA level player.

And clearly not good enough to beat the Twolves.

5 for 19 from 3 in 4 of 5 games. That's terrible. Charles Barkley three ball level, as you know. Lebron should focus on getting some more boards if he's gonna shoot like shit.
