The KD/Jordan comparisons already starting.

They got ya mans lebron the **** outta the way. As soon as that KD commercials played, the RIP Lebron tribute was the nail in the coffin
 
Yeah, the KD-Jordan comparisons will fully kick in right about when LeBron breaks Kareem's all-time scoring record, something that is guaranteed to permanently remove LeBron from GOAT discussion.

If you wanna believe that he had a broken hand, nothing anyone can say will change your mind.
 
They do that to everyone. First Kobe , then LeBron , then kd. Everytime they do the Jordan comparisons . All of those dudes being compared to mj is just flat out ridiculous but hyping players up like that makes them money .
Anyone who actually bought any of them being in jordans stratosphere is plain delusional , and I hated mj.
 
i remember this ‘hand’ excuse after another Finals loss for Lebron, i just cant remember what year

i remember it because someone posted the same gif below after the game





im sure those that orgasm off Lebron failing have it in their database somewhere...
I remember he randomly started grabbing at his shoulder on a free throw during spurs run. The year they lost I believe
 
No, they didn't. LeBron joining the Lakers, Celtics, Spurs, Mavericks or Magic in 2010 was more of a sure thing to win the championship than the experiment with the Heat. Still wouldn't have been as sure as Durant joining a team that were considered to win the championship prior to him joining them, of course. The same goes for 2014 where he experimented by joining two injury prone players who never played a playoff game.

Was it plausible by cap for him to go to either of those teams or are you making up scenarios that didn't exist then to put up for him? Any contenders in '14 better than Cavs he could've joined? 60 yo Spurs?
 
Time will definitely not forget the *****assness of Durant's move.

30 years from now:

Person A: Man, those Warriors back in the 2010s with Kevin Durant sure used to be good. That's when they set the 73-9 record, right?
Person B: No, Kevin Durant joined them the season after they went 73-9.

Time will not forget the fact that this ***** joined a team that even in the few days after they lost the 2016 finals but before Durant joined them, were considered the favorites to win the 2016-17 title. And those who compare Durant's ***** move with LeBron's Heat move will always be shut down:

Witness protection group will find a stat for any debate :lol

Yes, it was. If he committed to them and accepted a pay cut like he did with the Heat.

And yes, there were definitely contenders in 2014. For example could've played with 2nd round exits Chris Paul and Blake Griffin instead of never been in the playoffs Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love had he wanted to.
 
Not that it would've changed the series in any way, but are people here actually saying that there is no issue with his hand, and he's completely making it up?

Bro....he GASSING it, and conveniently using it as an excuse.

He MIGHT have an issue with his hand (self inflicted, EXTREMELY SELFISH)....but if you’re out there....play.

Steph MCL was f’d up 2 years ago....and he shot down all attempts to use that as an excuse when he easily could’ve. This year too.

Minutes after the game....Bron has Windhorst go up there to tell the press that he’s been playing with a SEVERE BROKEN hand....and Bron shows up in a cast at the presser with a cast on milking it.

If you can’t say....”Cmon Bron” to that....idk what to tell you.

I agree that he's definitely gassing it by putting the wrap on for the postgame.

Just seems like people are saying he's just completely making it up. Which seems weird.

2 things can be correct.

The pay cut bron would’ve had to accept to join any of Celtics in 2010 or the old *** Spurs in 2014 is wild unrealistic :lol.

He chose the best situation, with the easiest path to play for a championship, talent and financial stability.

You’re kidding yourself if you think a 25 year old Bron would’ve taken $4mil per year to play with the Celtics. Or a vet minimum paycut to play with the Spurs.

The only reason KD is with the warriors is the Cap jump in 2016. He’s still making around $28mil a year.

You gotta stop with the fantasies.
 
Warriors went *88-18 in 2015-2016.

73-9 is a regular season record.

The only reason the Warriors ever lost in the finals (and why KD is there now) is b/c of Steph's defense. It's the only thing that keeps these teams in games. Attack Steph

Yo, you trippin right now. It's THIS difficult to call it corny? Furthermore, you can't understand why some would think it's made up? Given the timing? Smh. And then you wonder why people aren't rational

You miss my other post? I said he was definitely gassing it up and it was corny.

Completely doubting an injury exists just seems odd is all.

This finals series Steph gave a lot of effort on defense and actually took on the challenge.

Couldn't say it better. Also as soon as that player declines/retires they'll move on to a different guy to compare to MJ. But I guess that's what happens when you're the GOAT.

Yeah I quoted before you responded. I hear you but I mean...There's more evidence that it's an excuse than not. I'm not saying he's lying, it's plausible, but it's irrelevant and given his history of being able to control the narrative it comes across as fabricated.
