THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[tay1]

Yeah if Bron wins again, I just may have to give it to him. This is coming from a life long Kobe dan

 

[addict4sneakers]

Bron gotta win to get out of Steph’s shadow

 

[Clyde Frog]

How much longer until everyone agrees that Bron is the GOAT? He’s most gonna finish with:

4+ MVPs
3+ finals mvps
1st in points
Top 5 in assists
Top 25 in rebounds
Top 10 in steals
Top 10 in 3’s

not to mention shattering most playoff accolades. a number of the greatest playoff runs ever statistically. And the best finals numbers of all time. And the best finals performance of all time in 2016.

Bron in 2016 was not the best finals performance of all time

Some love MJ so much it doesn't matter what any other player does you're not jumping him. The legend gets bigger as time goes.

 

[Clyde Frog]

who had better?

 

[WASHED KING]

Bron in 2016 was not the best finals performance of all time

Name a better performance from the modern NBA era.

 

[tay1]

This is probably the major issue. Besides the national TV games, if someone is a cordcutter and wants to follow their local team, they have no legal streaming option to do so. It is so asinine.

Situation I'm in with DirectTv Now. My face when finding out that I'm blocked from watching a Laker game while living in LA

 

[hennessy beach]

Well it's never been done because the elite players of the past weren't in an era where that was a popular thing. Not to mention we're acting as if Bron didn't go to these teams with HOF talent in tow along with his pick of coaches & role players.

It's not like you just plugged him into bum teams and suddenly they're contenders, If people want to call him the most talented ever (which that in itself is in question because things such as handle, footwork, post moves, defense do exist)

stats look amazing tho

Bron is by far the greatest individual talent to ever play basketball, it's not even that close anymore

He wont go down as the most accomplished because there are simply more better players in the league now that also deserve accolades.

MJ in 93

I live in Vegas and Lakers games are blacked out too because apparently a city that is four hours away by car counts as "local" as well.

I know it has to do with local TV contracts but that model was outdated a decade ago. It is just plain ridiculous right now.

 

[curtis50cent]

No Bron no.... You were nearly in the paint. Come on now.

Imagine slipping from his feet sweat.

 

[hennessy beach]

MJ in 93

close argument. 30, 11, 9 down 3-1 vs the "greatest team of all time"
or
41, 8, 6 vs a good suns team

 

[Clyde Frog]

MJ in 93

eh disagree. He had more points and that’s about it.

this combined with the context of coming back from being down 3-1 against what would have been the greatest team of all time. That context matters.

 

[clyde the glide]

Name a better performance from the modern NBA era.

Wade 06 or any of shaqs from Lakers 3 peat are debatable.

 

[firstclass]

Bron gotta win to get out of Steph’s shadow

Explain

 

[everysingletime]

I like the nba league pass app on my roku

Don't really watch league pass on my phone too much but when I do, it works fine

For blacked out games, theoretically hulu has live sports, but I've not tried using hulu to watch games yet.

And yea, I do remember the days when league pass on the TV wasn't in HD. Thank God those days are over lol

 

[addict4sneakers]

does Draymond not playing fit in the context?

 

[addict4sneakers]

Explain

3 titles in 17 years, I can divide....

 

[WASHED KING]

does Draymond not playing fit in the context?

Draymond missed 1 game. Yall act like he sat out the whole series.

 

[D StaXX]

Wade 06 or any of shaqs from Lakers 3 peat are debatable.

Hell no to Wade. That **** was super fixed.

 

[WASHED KING]

1. Bron in 16
2 MJ in 93
3. Put whoever you want.

 

[clyde the glide]

Hell no to Wade. That **** was super fixed.

A lot of folks say the same about 2016
