The slurp is strong in you my friend.

How so? All I'm saying is that even if you dont win the finals, making it there is an accomplishment, not a failure. It's just ridiculous for people to say losing the finals is a stain on your record as oppose to just not making it there at all. In what world is losing in the finals worse than losing in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd round? If the mavs lose the finals, is Dirk a bigger loser than Durant who didn't even make it there? Of corse not.

Its an accomplishment (relatively speaking) but at the same time, you didn't go to the finals to lose so it SHOULD be looked at as a failure if you consider yourself a true competitor ....are Barkley and Nash losers, of course not but they don't have that piece of hardware that you enter the league to acquire.....no one cares about who the second fastest man in the world is...if you lose by an inch you may as well have lost by a mile....losing is losing no matter how close you come to the promiseland

my friend saw Lebron in a restaurant at Ohio and he was like "hey Lebron, whats up" and he told him "don't call me Lebron, call me King James".

No HATE on Lebron. But I wish MJ played in today's time with all the hate, because he would shut everyone up. MJ would have made it a challenge when someone talks trash or hate on him (ask Cleveland Cavaliers) what their booing to MJ cost them. No one plays the "villian" role better than MJ.

But, you also have to realize that Lebron "took his talents to South Beach" and was very arrogant about it. To be honest, I think that he made the right decision and took less money compared if he went to another team. This is the same guy that said that they will win four/five/six rings with Miami.

 this guy Lebron is clown and been saying it for years now.  People would always say "you don't know him, you arent around him, how do you know".  But I judge people by actions not words.  This dude has been doing lame, d-bag antics for years.

I never got this too when people use it against Kobe.

@ the LeBron conversation.  I can see him getting into some recruiting/whatever violation one day.

also MJ will never have a triple double...... , sure if lebron wanted he can jack up shots and go for 63 and lose the game , but thats not what its all about.
So you ask why anyone would score 50 when they're losing games (games are decided by points btw)
Then you say MJ has no triple doubles, but has never lost a NBA Finals.

The Ironing is thick.

How many times did MJ get swept in the Finals?

How many Finals has MJ Lost?

Please stop using the age thing. Lebron started playing in the NBA at 18 years old and Jordan started at 21 years old. It is better to compare Jordan's eighth season (the Bulls won twice with him being finals MVP in both). In Lebron's eighth season, he went to two finals (got swept in 2007 to the Spurs and now they are currently down 3-2 in this finals). If Lebron does not step up, this series will be over TONIGHT!!! If Miami does win the series, DWade will be Finals MVP.

Accomplishment? LMAO, LeBron losing in the finals is just as bad as last years performance, if not worse.
But keep taking those moral victories. LEBRON TRIED REALLY HARD
