Larry Legend destroyed his back in 1985, so who knows?

I don't remember who I had beating them this year though. I had the cavs making the finals in my NT bracket though so I kind of did think they'd make it this year.
But idk who's it going to be that defeats them. But I just feel like for the first time since he's arrived in cleveland, they've looked vulnerable. LBJ going brazy this playoff run kind of hid the serious issues that this team has and like, if he isn't playing at an all time great level come playoffs next year, it could be different. I think them being a terrible defensive team is a real thing.

You've lost your mind. If you think that, then Magic Johnson sucked, because Bird won 3 MVP's in a row during the prime careers of the Dream Team members.

Larry Bird's stats are comparable to Bron's for his career though. 24/10/6 on 50% shooting.

You obviously never saw him play his entire career. I did.
I think Lebron is better than Bird, BUT he should never be compared to MJ
I think Lebron is on the same level as Magic and Kareem, but not MJ....

MVPs, 4 finals losses. Debatable whether he or Bird was the best.

Because Jordan was an elite defender too and was 6-0 in Finals and 3 peated twice and retired after both. Could've easily won 8 in a row....

Don't think it's a debate actually. 2-1 in finals 5 chips vs 3 chips.

At the time it was. Also see parallels between those Lakers-Celtics and the Cavs-Dubs. Both teams were stacked. Lakers were just more stacked.

I don't know about that? The entire city of Cleveland will be tuning in. Ohio is a huge sports town.
