An injuried Isaiah Thomas, Derrick Rose after the injury, Jeff Teague, Marcus Morris, Paul Milsap, Demar DeRozan, Paul George, Demar DeRozan again, Avery Bradley, Victor Oladipo, Kyle Lowry, and a 21 year old Jaylen Brown…those are the leading scorers of each series of the playoffs of every opposing East team Cle faced in Bron's 4 years back. Any top 25 player in the history of the NBA would get through that weak conference with the help he had.
I been saying for years…… LeBrick can't survive in the WEST………if you give a grade for his 8 years w the Lakers…it's a -D average…..the 2023 WCF also included+1000 free throws…..and ended w a BROOM 🧹……. Bubble chip that we don't respect AD WAS THE BEST PLAYER…..and the WEST is much weaker than 2000-2010
Dont forget that the Western conference finals were fiercly contested during that time. Its not like the Warriors were destined.
He was not that good everything he done was allowed by the NBA it was manufactured and manipulated by the media and NBA. Not buying his so-called career I'm not giving him no respect to a mf that NEVER respected the GAME!! SIMPLE AS THAT!!!
You mean to tell me the NBA and media and probably some mobb ties didn't have money on that 3-1 series ..it was designed for him to win…just like it wasn't a coincidence he got drafted by Cleveland the greatest trick was for the world to believe that this mf was a savior for Cleveland and the NBA because Kobe was on his way out labeled as a villain because of the rape case. So again I'm not respecting no mf who doesn't and still doesn't respect the game. Simple as that!
Facts
This is why I think most people aren't as disgusted with the Heatles as they should be: in an already WEAKER conference, dude teamed up with TWO other franchise players and weakened it even further.
I miss the whole intro in its entirety. You have the best intro on youtube
Remember the Pacers led by Oladipo should’ve won that series. Lebron goal tended. But of course the LeRefs didn’t wanna reply it smh
He just killed the narrative that the Leglazers leaned upon!! Been saying this for years just glad they heard it from the very person that was involved 😎👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The Heatles would not get to The NBA Finals if they had to go through The 89 Pistons, The 86 Celtics and The 96 Bulls.
Some LeEPO worshipper tried to tell me on Threads that LeEPO is greater than MJ because he went to 10 straight NBA finals. I said to him his Queen never faced any real resistance when he was in the east and if he's so great how come in his 8 years out west he only made it to 1 finals. Dude tried to use age as a factor..smdh. His only challenge in the east was a young D-Rose & Jokim Noah, a young PG13 & Lance Stephenson, after those 2 teams next in line was Lowry & DeRozan and the Raptors.
Lebron goat
GOING ON ANOTHER TEAM
This is just another of numerous examples that absolutely destroys his GOAT case. This is why, in my book, LeBron never has and never will surpass MJ and Kobe.
How can you be the goat if you only had a 3 60+ regular season win games in 24 years and never been in a dynasty?
He said what we already knew 😂
That boy have 1 championship in Cleveland 😂 that's Krazy work all them years and he talking about he the 🐐🤔
I agree with this conversation. I’m here to stand on the hill top of being a fan of sports. Let’s stop with The Who’s the goat & who’s not, if you want mj to be it then so be it. When you play sports regardless of the circumstances, your taught no matter what to play who’s in front of you. When it’s time for your team to show up against the opposition, star power or not. Everyone is a professional & it’s next man up and you play who is in front of you. I hate the discussion of Michael Jordan didn’t played against plumbers & electricians /LeBron had it easy. Let’s just appreciate everyone’s greatness at the time their greatness Shines the brightest, then move on.
I took the Cavaliers little tribute video for LeBron that he wasn't going back there that was the point of the tribute does I believe the only way they're going to have them back is if he comes back on a vet minimum nobody's going to pay for LeBron. This guy's statement supports that
The Cavs should have drafted either Dwyane Wade or Carmelo Anthony instead of LeTraitor.
Makes no difference to Bronvestites, who don't know what a good TEAM is.
Paul George have 1 great game and got investigated for PED but LeBron, oldest player to have a triple double… crickets.
You guys need to get girlfriends
Shortcut King
During that time the Western conference final was the NBA final.
It seems plausible that LeBron will not be on a roster next year. I’m not saying he’s not good enough to be on an NBA team, but when you think about the level of control he wants within an organization, the amount of gametime/touches/etc. he’ll want, the amount of money that he’ll want, and the fact that there are many teams he would feel are “beneath” him, I’m not sure he will be able to find a taker. Knicks maybe? IDK but it will be interesting to see what happens.
We've been saying this for years but Lebron fanboys don't wanna hear that
Just call the channel LeBron
These people are diabolical haters.. lebron was great an still is. This ex gm ain't even good enough to be gm at Walmart
East was designed to get LeBron to finals every season. That’s why that 10 finals appearance is flawed af. Going against wizards and Larry Hughes 😂
The Bronsexuals left the group chats 😂
Dan Gilbert is going to squeeze blood from that turnip
If LeBron was in his prime today and was in Cleveland he’d still run the east. Who is in the east?
David Griffin finally said the truth. Watching the Cavs play the Raptors or the Hawks those series were terrible.
After D Rose injured his Achilles….LBJ didnt face another superstar in the eastern conference playoffs for 7 seasons……insane
Seeding meant nothing and LBJ knew they could coax in the regular season
Elite teams of the past couldn't coax
Real baskeball fans knew this already.
The east was historically bad.
The refs didn't help either.
Lebron beat 73-9 Western Conf. Team
LaFLOPtimus Past his Prime is a DECEPTICON.
and without Kyrie, and Love, LeBum Is Nothing
Those 8 straight years in the finals he only faced 1 ALL NBA FIRST TEAM PLAYER D ROSE 😂😂
No lies told it was a “historically bad eastern conference” like Griffin said cope harder
Lefanboys
Meanwhile there was a bloodbath in the West just to get to the Finals.
