This is the wrong thread to do this in, and by no means am I here to hijack the thread, but just an observation.I wasn't implying it as a he would have won more, I was using it moreso as a balancing between the two players, as Kobe has been in the league longer, but he's had seasons where he wasn't available to make hay, so to speak, on LeBron. If you get what I'm saying. Between his 19 years, and Bron's 13, the 6 of Kobe's (2 lockout short seasons, 2 first round and outs vs Suns, and 4 injured/no playoff years) Bron has his first two teenage years, and one lockout short season.
I was sort of leveling the seasons total, which shows that the 24-7 disparity isn't just cuz Kobe been in the NBA longer.
And I like the dirty little Riley secret, that's a damn good find, I hadn't noticed that.
I am trying to find a likening with Bron in the East, and the 2 I have so far are Will Smith examining the box office, and deciding that Sci-Fi movies are his meal ticket to box office success, not necessarily his success as an artist, or Oscar threat, etc. He makes money, he gets paid, he puts up big box offices, but he's not a true threat to get the Gold.
Or, like dominating at Ohio St and the Big Ten, you might scratch out a title or two, but for the most part you dominate the crappy conference, and then get dismantled by the SEC, where real teams are. (this would have worked better before this yearmaybe I should have used the Pac 12. )
He gets numbers, he wins series, and he creams a ton of East teams. But to this point, when he meets up with the West, he's been shown the door. I mean, from 03-11, he had ONE single series win vs a 50 win squad, and that team was coming off multiple multiple multiple deep playoff runs, and likely ran out of gas. That's context, that does not help his case.
2011 Boston would not help his case contextually either. Nor would the 2013 aging Spurs, really. So yes, there's context, but some of it doesn't help his argument either.
You know I have strong beliefs in you can't win a 4th straight Finals, etc, and to that point, I was right last year. But I didn't even realize these type of numbers til this year. I didn't see the complete cakewalk he was livin off of, and even still, the Heat ran out of gas last year anyways. Had they faced 10+ 50 win teams over the course of those 3--4 years, he would never have even come close to a Finals run in that 4th year. But in this version of the East, I guess it is doable. And it will continue it seems, as Anthony Davis, Wiggins, and now this year's #1 and #2 picks all end up out West, amongst the bottom teams of an already strong conference.
Even when he loses, he wins. Cavs could lose Love this offseason, and still walk thru the East next year, and really only have to win one single tough series to hoist the O'Brien.
As for the Hwaks, 60, they struggled to get out of round 1 vs a 38 win Nets team. And went to the wire every game with a 46 win Wizards team. And then were swept. That's the worst 60 win team we've ever seen, and you know it.
If you're gonna stick up for lebron in the lebron hate thread, can you at least hold it until the offseason?
I don't wanna come in here at this crucial juncture and see that crap. Only time for hate right now.
I.....calibeebee.... Do solemnly swear, to hate to my fullest potential on Instagram, Facebook, and any other social media made available. Down with theMiamicLeveLand ***** boys. **** lebron. One nation, under hate, indivisible, with hate and saltiness for all.
And the dream shall never die. -Ted Kennedy Let the hate continue.
It's time...
