2-7 = 2 wins, 7 losses

2/7 = 2 wins, 7 attempts

2-7 = 2 wins, 7 losses

The anti LeBron people do it on purpose though to make it seem like he has lost more than he has. You won't see the same posters say GSW went 73-82.

Because that's generally not how we communicate season win-loss records.

X for X attempts is commonly used in sports to demonstrate success rate.

Finals attempts is very specific and there's a corresponding rate of success. There's nothing incorrect about saying Lebby is 2 for 6 in the finals unless you just don't want to be reminded of that fact.

Huh? Commonly used? I've never seen anyone say MJ is 6-6 in the playoffs. What the hell are you spewing?

That's because MJ isn't 6-6 in the playoffs mayne.

Dubs were only missing Bogut last game because they were also missing Dray.

Now that Draymond's back, Bogut's absence won't be that big a deal.

Cavs ain't even playing that big anyway.

people get it confused tho. ive seen them say that. that would mean he went to 12 finals.... its a simple thing that people always get mixed up . big difference between -/

It's a moot point in here. NT always gonna say 2-7 or 2/7 or whatever other iteration because the hate for Lebron is that deep.

Exactly, at this point it's just **** you gotta scroll past.

Will never understand that type of irrational hate from other men about a guy they don't even know personally. I can see being annoyed at his diva attitude sometimes but the guy is the best athlete of his generation and has done more for the game we love than could really be calculated.


Even after playing one of the best Finals games in history in an elimination game on the road against the best team ever, guys were in here still hating.

Your life is wrong if that's how you react to greatness, that's weird ****.

But I know "Lebby, Lebum, 2/7,"

Fixed that for you.

We share a complex language. Use context and common sense as to not be driven crazy by petty ish.

 

[friscostylez]

Ikea's food is trash af.

according to brokebackhoney you could buy approximately two million Swedish meatballs with $100k... he aint right, but he aint wrong

 

[junglejim]

5 losses and 7 losses in the finals basically sound the same.  Either way, it is ******* terrible.

 

[northoaklandfc]

If you're saying they won 73 out of 82 games yes.

If you're saying they won 73 games and lost 82 games no.

Context and common sense tells me you mean the former because there are 82 games in a season.

If NBA history was only kept and chronicled by this NBA thread. SMH. I'd feel sorry for our youth. Once we're gone Nick you have to lead the way bro. Your the young man we've placed the future of this thread on.

Well apparently if you don't feel this way about Lebron, you are a hater:

Apparently it isn't or we wouldn't have 3 pages discussing it

Zach Lowe.

All believe that AGAIN, LeBron should be the mvp of the series. But they know the voters will find a way to pick someone from the winning team. (If it is GSW).

Jvg says they need to just change the award to MVP of the Winning team since the voters ignore the losin5side.

This is so ridiculous. Players on losing teams don't get MVP consideration EVER. Why change that for the Finals? Especially with what Kyrie is doing.

Has this ever been a discussion ever?

i dont care i just think its funny how dudes can only rationalize on what they enjoy . personally i think lebron has been a detriment to the game of basketball. ive never enjoyed watching him play. who cares. oh well so be it. everyone has some sort of bias.

 its not that serious for dudes to cry about.

By turning the NBA game into a glorified three point contest but AGAIN this is a topic for another day

 

[friscostylez]

so we were better when kobe was shooting fadeaways over 4 guys?

Yeah because watching a player bulldoze his way to the rim for a decade because he is bigger and stronger than people is a real treat to watch.

whoever enjoyed that cool. we all enjoy different things.
