Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

[tyevvyotcu]

I could be. My whole point in all of that is that the guy was set before playing in the NBA. That wasn't earned. You don't earn the contract he got from playing 4 years of HS basketball.

yes you do....
he is the biggest nba prospect ever, plus everybody signs their shoe deals before going to the nba
you honestly just sound like a hater right now bro.

How do you compare the value of a prep to pro guy in a different financial era to a guy in the 80s. You're doing a lot of reaching.

he quite literally earned that contract from HS ball

 

[addict4sneakers]

But he did earn it based off him being the best HS prospect probably ever.

There's been accounts of Lebron destroying the Cavs in open runs when he was a junior in HS

You're right, it doesn't even count. Chip should be vacated like some of the NCAA winners.

Never said it or even implied that. Most teams got go through 82 games + the playoffs.

 

[tyevvyotcu]

****** got mad about bron's comments after the 2011 finals because it hit close to home for them.
what he said was facts

 

[youngwolf]

 
**** Bron.

Always. 

 

Edit: 

And with regards to the Steph Curry hate, 99.9% of it comes from insecure LeBronze stans. Called it as soon as Kobe retired, and just like clockwork, his haters became Steph haters.

 

[captaintuxable]

captaintuxtable is the "they" us bron fans be referring to.

he's being od unreasonable right now

yes you do....

you honestly just sound like a hater right now bro.

Coming from you, I ain't surprised.

Okay,he won again the next full season after

That was great for him. It don't matter much to me unless it says Lakers on the front.

 

[Trey Bantz]

No one ever tries to discredit San Antonio's '99 title in a shortened season, but since it was LeBron and the Big 3 Heat...

 

[JD617]

He was the best high school player in at least 35 years since Kareem. How did he not earn it?

 

[captaintuxable]

how you earn 90 mill playing hs ball? No. It was a gamble by nike that paid off. thats all.

 

[tyevvyotcu]

not sure how winning in a lockout season in any easier than winning in a normal season

 

[freeze]

i do. spurs got 4 rings. and a participation trophy

Good for you,no need to discredit that title

He literally could have left any time after his sophomore year in high school and been a top 5 pick lol

It's not.

You still have to win 16 games in the playoffs.

 

[captaintuxable]

Good for you,no need to discredit that title

That's just me though. Same goes for the Spurs when they did it. I don't see how you can look at a title in a lockout season the same as a regular season when you're playing 15-20 games less.

 

[tyevvyotcu]

did Kobe not earn his adidas deal that he signed [emoji]129300[/emoji]

 

[Proposition Joe]

Man people lose all rationale when discussing Lebron James

The playoffs aren't shortened though.

RIP Charlie Murphy.

bruh we're both hov and bron fans [emoji]128563[/emoji]
I just peeped that lol

 

[tyevvyotcu]

The playoffs aren't shortened though.

and every team plays less regular season games so there's no advantage there
he just a bron hater

Nope, I've seen Laker fans try to discredit that one too.

The Spurs' chips in '05 and '07 don't count either because the Lakers weren't good those years.
