How Many Legit Championships Has Lebron Won?

[AlpacaWine]

My bad. I thought we were talking about the non-championship Cavs teams during Lebron's first tenure there. Never mind.

No worries. You can always clear things up for yourself by reading the post before you reply to it.

I get that, but the way that RW reacted tells me that they probably weren't as close as most thought-or as close as Pau & Kobe.

And even if RW felt like KD had ducked him he could've picked up the phone & had a private conversation with him about it rather than act out in the media and/or when they met on the court. I think that's the reason close relationships break up in most cases. People don't know how to communicate about things that are not easy to talk about and so they clam up. Nothing gets resolved that way. I believe it's important to be able to call people out-especially the ones closest to you to help keep the relationship honest & healthy.

He found out in the press.

Not surprising he was upset.

He played with that man for damn near a decade and claimed to love him like a brother, his words.

That was cowardly.

I don't know much about it, but if they were the big players at OKC and played together for years, a guy with balls would tell his buddy he's leaving.

I got balls. Big balls. Three of them.

I'm sensing you are just looking to argue.

Dirt's point was that the Bulls team was very good and they were one shot away from going to the NBA finals WITHOUT MJ. The Cavs were a high lottery team once Lebron left.

Regardless of what people think of LJ in terms of being in the conversation for GOAT, his performance with the 2007 Cavs team was nothing of one of the all-time great performances in NBA. I don't know of another example of a player single handedly carrying a team to the finals.

Ewwwwww!

But, yeah.

That was my only issue with the situation.

Let's not pretend Westbrook was the easiest guy to play with.

Ya think?

Guy's annoying as fuck.

So you know what he said. Yet you responded to my post by bringing up the 86 Bulls and then the Cavs championship roster?


But you're sensing that it's me who wants to argue?

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Ewwwwww!

That hurt my feeling.

This was why I bullshitted your post:

This is a complete and total crock of steaming bullshit.

Shows what you know. Right now I can keep making 100k plus a nice bonus with one of the majors in my industry. Or I can go to a smaller company owned by a friend who's buying out his dad. Make twice my salary plus 40% of the profits at the end of the year.

$5 million profit / 2 to put back into company for line of credit. 40% of 2.5 million isn't good?

That's a petty steep upgrade in pay plus I get to build something as well. This is why you can't really compare playing basketball and an everyday job


Keep your bullshitting up tho. Btw in a good year his dad's company profited $36 million and was split 2 ways

Not surprising he was upset.

And I get that too- but being upset shouldn't lead to acting like he's the enemy in the media or press. That's why I say he's pretty immature.

KD is a grown man who is capable of making decisions without needing another grown man's approval.

 

[LAD]

That hurt my feeling.

You only have 1 feeling (you used the singular tense) but 3 balls? Do I have that correct??

The only thing I believe in less than a chick on a sports chat site, is dudes who talk about how much money they make on a sports chat site.

You're probably pumping gas at the El Sobrante Shell.

All good my man. I'm doin ok and got bigger plans

Considering he initially failed in Cleveland and needed previous champion in D Wade to carry him and Jesus to hit clutch shots I don't count any with the cheat.

Everyone knows last year doesn't count because of the BS suspension of Green and garbage calls cost GS the championship.

For me the answer is 0. He will forever be known as Lechoke. I blame the NBA for trying to make him into something he's not which is MJ.
