2017 cavs vs the 96 bulls.

sinxe that’s the Lebron team that beat Boston (not sure why that matters) and Lebron and Jordan were the same age for those seasons.

lakers suck and lebron sucks....

jordan is the greatest why? loyalty

“Loyalty” lol okay boomer, who forced LBJ back to Cleveland to deliver the title he promised to his city?

 

[UConn990411]

It’s astounding watching the Lakers take 3.5 minutes to figure out this Miami zone. It took Brad Stevens 3.5 games to do the same.

 

[Adios]

Didn't the Bucks also lose to this Heat team?

MJ never got to be a GM till he bought a team.

Giannis did

This is actually an excellent point @superjohn LBJ for all his shortcoming-straws you grasp for, as bad a “GM” LBJ has been as you claim, he’s still way more successful managing a team than MJ has lmao

I will say that Charlotte roster is worse than an expansion team.

It’s impossibly bad.

Jerry Krause was a nasty GM who put together nasty teams with MJ as the centerpiece. LeBron is a travelling franchise who put his trust in JR Smith.

LeBron can attract free agents, the Hornets can't, so far. With the way Charlotte is growing, that can change.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

The difference between an nba team and a college team attacking a zone is night and day.

Much easier when you're passing over Olynyk instead of Adebayo. Also easier when you have Anthony Davis on the baseline to dunk instead of Daniel Theis.

 

[casual-yardin]

Actually the numbers are extremely close if not in LBJ’s favor, depending on how the given “clutch” stat is defined

And LMAO please tell me what my “motivation” is

"The pure hate of LBJ as a person."

Why do people "hate" Lebron as a "person"?

And I missed this gem:

"Blinding you to the fact that LBJ is 50 pounds lighter and 6 inches shorter than Shaq but is reffed the same."

Shaq committed an offensive foul in the majority of times he backed someone down in the post. Not a real good comparison.

Shaq was fouled on almost literally every possession.

Idk man it’s baffling to me, too.

Literally I was going to say the same thing, but my verbose ass would have typed for 15 minutes.

People think they're brilliant and know more than Brad Stevens, I'm sure he didn't know what to do against the basic zone!
