Bron is talking like the Lakers didn't miss the playoffs last year or like the Lakers don't have the most talent this year lol

 

[Based Jesus]

No one ever said Bron wouldn't be a good player in the west. Just that he wasn't gonna be Western Conference champ every year. Since he's 18/49 in finals games and missed the whole damn playoffs last year I'd say it's not an untrue statement and it's a bit early for him to be doing victory laps for the Covid Bowl.

He didn't buy into last season.

Also remember ppl saying this roster wasn't the best either before this season outside of AD.

Like...him winning 50 games in the East...and playing a 38-40 win team in rd 1, a 45 win team in rd 2..and a team his roster has clearly been the favorite over, for 10 plus years is the convo.

Not that he shouldn’t be the MVP because he played in the East . That’s what he’s getting at. And also the idea that he deserves more mvps....and wasn’t given so, since he played in the East.

All of this is completely made up, by him and his team. Always looking to play the damn victim. Supposed “goat” smh.

 

[pmatic]

He didn't buy into last season.

Also remember ppl saying this roster wasn't the best either before this season outside of AD.

I do think by the time he returned from the groin injury he had checked out some. But at the same time he wasn't 100% either.

The people that questioned the roster before this season are dumb. I didn't expect the team to be this good, but LeBron, good defense and shooting works. Throw in a talent like AD and you get a contender.

 

[P C H]

Man no one said that Lebron + Another top 5 guy in the west wouldn't be able to get **** popping in the West

Just that, he wouldn't make 8 straight finals. For perspective, he took a team with Jordan Clarkson, Jeff Green, Jr Smith, Larry Nance, as real rotation guys to the finals...and they still went 7 with Rookie Tatum and Oladipo's pacers. That's not cutting it in the west. Not close.

And that's all his critics were saying. And it's a fair talking point, since the 8 straight finals is propped up so heavily IMO

He wouldn't be playing Brandon Jennings and Kemba walker in the first round, he'd be playing Tim Duncan, Kobe, Harden, dirk etc.

You give credit where credit is due though. LBJ and the Lakers were in the mix xmas day last season, but so were the Tobias led Clippers, ya know?

 

[jab step]

LeBron got out of the east right before teams started to peak. Bucks, Raps, and the Celts are all significantly better. Even the Heat are starting to show some life after years.

Dude is a mastermind.
