I'm just saying, there's a reason hoeseface called him from the parking lot after game 7 last year. Wyatt is nice as fugg but he ain't got no work for Johnny Ringo

Lol. Bluh. KD saying he will take less money to join squad or max deal for Harrison Barnes? 

All the cry baby LEbron fans saying they don't respect this team ... glad you're feeling salty af. Go have some margaritas tonight

Steph Curry wraps up his revenge tour with a 40pt triple double win

He's played the best basketball through the entirety of the playoffs.

Steph has been the man and definitely more focused but he hasn't outplayed lebron this playoffs.

Bron has to work harder for his baskets on the offensive end and he has to work harder on the defensive end because of his lazy/dumb team mates. Steph has a better team all around. Better scorers and smarter defenders.
 
50 second mark





Hearing draymond and hearing this it's amazing how a few of you in here say fatigue really isn't an issue because of days off. Days off having nothing to do with in game play. Take a week off then go run some 100 yard sprints with no time off in between, tell me if your times slow down drastically as you go on.

What consist of this "skill set"? My interpretation is basicly his overall game/skill... because MJ was a far better defender. He was awarded more for his "skill set"
Far better defender ?! Man hell naw ... lebron can guard all 5 positions ... Jordan stops at the 3

I agree with this. Especially when he was younger, he wouldnt have trouble stopping a G or PG. He may have slowed down a step or 2 and might get burnt by a smaller/faster pg tho.

Lebron can't even guard 1 position yet alone 5.  The guy has been putrid this year on the defensive end.  He is 247th in defensive rating this year.

Yea he has to work a lot harder. I'm going to stand by Bron having the better playoffs than steph, prolly the best period, but I also can't excuse some of his lapses on defense either he's made some crucial mistakes and even allowed free lanes to the basket. But to your point yes if he had klay and draymond behind him he would look a lot better on defense.

I would agree with this.  There isn't really a plus defender in the Cavs starting lineup so any mistakes are definitely amplified by the lack of help side defense.
 
Lebron's D has been overrated. He's always been allowed to beat people up and averaged like a foul a game for his career . When you allowed that kind of privilege you going to look good.

Yeah the Days off thing is silly. Days off will have you sucking wind easily, especially if your first couple of games back is against GSW.
 
draymond learned his lesson and ran with it.. hats off my dude...


Thank you for the second championship in my lifetime.. I'm expecting 8 more

The EFFECTIVENESS in which he defends, is what DPOY and awards like that judge off of. Im not saying Bron is a garbage defender, he's just not better than MJ.

Time off is very valuable for rehabbing injuries (big ones and little nagging ones).

Right, but that doesn't help with fatigue. It does the complete opposite. Try not hooping for almost two weeks and then trying to hoop, let alone against GSW on the road in the finals, where your excitement, the moment, etc. is bound to cause some fatigue added to that? Yeah you're going to for sure be tired I don't care who you are. Doesn't help that the Cavs have extended Bron's minutes all season but in that situation anyone would get tired.
