    this is the play that won them the ship imo, followed by kyrie's huge shot.



    that's just willing a team to a W. dude was at half court to elevated enough to pin that layup to the boards in 1.5 seconds

    they only started watching basketball last year when the playoffs started, so as far as they know, that was the best team of all time :laff:

    And that's why I say LBJ is the second GOAT. It's not just all about scoring. He made that huge play, had a few huge blocks in games 4 and 5 too. He does it all.

    Man he didn't just have Smush Parker, Kwame Brown and Chris Mihn on his team, he had them in the starting lineup. It was embarrassing lol.

    Bron's got a chance to be up there with Kobe and MJ, needs at least 1 more ring(imo 2) and to keep up this level play a little longer. Kinda pisses me off hearing so many Jordan fans this morning say 'nope, no chance Bron's ever on that level', lol they always say that same s--- and never give any other player hope of even being close. It's annoying. Bron's career isn't over or even that close to it, hard to say how the rest will go.

    I talk a lot of s--- about Curry but he was probably injured tbh. He didn't play well in last years finals either though so maybe he's the bball version of Peyton manning great in the season and falls at the end. Who knows though

    ^ If the Warriors had won, Green would have undoubtedly been the MVP

    Kobe no doubt would have at least one more ring if the Lakers roster wasn't so s--- for that 4 year stretch.

    No Nba player has ever meant morr to a city than Lebron prriod. He is the city of Cleveland folks, without kobe La is.still a thriving city, without jordan Chicago is a thrivng city, without Lebron, cleveland is a shithole. I went to an Indians game last year a week after lebron announced.his return and it felt like cpr was just issued and the people there gave a s--- again. He had done so much its unbelievable, I clearly remember summer 2003 and my dad getting me his jersey and just everybody saying he was the next jordan. If no one saw 30 for 30 on clelevand, that will help further my claim.

    I was a Johnny Manziel fan in college and when he got drafted by Cleveland I was happy because I thought he would bring the city some excitement and energy.... that didn't pan out though :bookah:

    Larry would give Bron buckets just like he did to Dominique & Magic.

    The Jordan comparison still isn't a very good one. Style of play is completely opposite from each other. Demeanor as well. Magic is to Bron what MJ is to Kobe.

    Both teams combined to go 1-17 to end the game last night, Kyrie's tough shot over Curry was the only make and that one basically sealed the game. Curry had chances to make shots he'd mostly hit in big situations in the past, but he missed em. Warriors had their shot but couldn't do it.

    Kyrie was very close to as valuable as Bron in this series imo, made so many big plays in the biggest moments of the series and really carried the offense at times.

    Curious to see how the Warriors bounce back next year and if Bron commits to Cleveland long term after this.

    Let's be real though the only thing LeBron is better at than Jordan is rebounding.

    I'd argue he's a better passer.

    That's fair, but just because MJ's assists are lower doesn't make him any worse a passer, just that he does it less often.

    Don't think MJ had the same natural court vision and instinct like LeBron. Honestly, people are getting mixed up. LeBron is the Magic of his era.
