He's just stating what was already stated here; King came to LA to take a shit, pass some time and then hop on off that dead-ass zombie carcass of a franchise onto a post-basketball career in Hollywood.

Lakers fans are in for another disappointing season after acting like there's reverence of their franchise because they finally got a loser side kick on a one year rental.

Meh it’s kinda the narrative LeBron has always had once he realized that he was bigger than the franchise he plays for. This man had to be babysat by J-Kidd on the damn Olympic team. He couldn’t deal with The Godfather of the NBA in Riley and Riley himself said about as much as Griff did. Hell even Phil Jax took a shot at the King. Now that he’s a loser has been player on a lottery team, expect ALOT of people coming out of the woodwork to take shots at him.

His rep though has taken a huge hit as of late. He desperately NEEDS the whole AD thing to work. And I’m talking about winning the West at the very least. Bc as is, KD called him out, Kawhi and Paul George didn’t want to play with him. Hell I wouldn’t be surprised to see nobodies like Lonzo and Ingram take subtle jabs at him this season. If LeBron can’t win the west with AD, he is done as far as having all his secrets kept in house.

I hope SpaceJam 2 is a hit bc it could be a tough year for LeBron :lol

Kawhi is much more worthy to build his brand on the Lakers than this fake fuck.

You could have had him.

Dude’s got 3 rings and is universally recognized as the most gifted basketball player to ever live. He has nothing to prove, so of course he isn’t as obsessed with winning as before. Jordan was a sociopath so you can’t really compare his desire to win with others.

My problem with Lebron is his record in the finals is so awful for an all time great player. And of course all the excuses that go with it.

Jordan is 6-0
Duncan is 5-1
Kobe is 5-2
Bird is 3-2
Magic is 5-4

With 9 finals trips you should have more than 3. Warriors were stacked fine, but Spurs and Mavs whooped you bad in 2011 and 2014.. Nothing but excuses why..

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 01:33 PM
So you’re penalizing LeBron for losing in the Finals and not earlier in the playoffs?

Well if he’s the greatest player that ever lived like some people say should he not have more than three championships in nine attempts?

And the Eastern conference was so awful the majority of his prime. Anyone of a number of all-time great players would have reached the finals as many times as he did. But he left at least 2 winnable ones on the table..

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 01:39 PM
If Jordan is the greatest ever, why did he only get to the Finals 6 times and not 9?
Why did Duncan only get there 6 times, instead of 9?
Why did Bird only get there 5 times, instead of 9?

I am sounding like Skip Bayless here But Jordan first of all needed a team around him. Also the competition was insane during the 80s in the Eastern conference. Plus once Jordan started winning that was it he never stopped. Who stopped him Michael Jordan? Himself. He decide to try to hit a fastball for two years. Then he came back and beat the shit out of everyone again.

Duncan Is better all time than LeBron James in my opinion. A much better record in the NBA finals, a better leader, his game was easier to play with. I would take Tim over LeBron.

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 01:59 PM
Jordan only missed one full season due to baseball. Now who’s making excuses here?

He came back with 17 games left in 95. Not exactly a fair point. It’s all good because another three peat followed. If that was James it would’ve been three straight losses in the finals followed by shit tons of excuses.

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 02:00 PM
If Duncan is better why didn’t he make it to the Finals nine times?

6 trips and 5 rings

Beat LeBron 2 times and should have been 3.

What is up with you and awarding points for these runner-up trophies? I don’t get it?

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 03:34 PM
If Duncan is better why didn’t he make it to the Finals nine times?

BTW one of the excuses Lebron gets for not winning more is the competition was too tough for him in the finals.. Well this is what Duncan had to deal with to win 5 rings..

Kobe and Shaq in their primes
Dirk and the Mavs in it's prime
Lebron and his Super team in Miami

6 trips to the finals and 5 rings.. Took a fucking miracle in game 6 to lose in 2013.. Yeah Duncan over Lebron for me.. 100%..

08-02-2019, 04:28 PM
Well if he’s the greatest player that ever lived like some people say should he not have more than three championships in nine attempts?

How come Jordan needed Pippen to make it out of the first round? After that, with Pippen, why did Jordan need the Celtics and Pistons to age out of contention before making it to an NBA finals?

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 05:57 PM
Excuses, excuses. He didn’t get to ninePERIOD

6 trips is still less than 9. Why didn’t he get to 9?

Why did Lebron lose 6 LOL???? 2 to Duncan. Almost 3..

Huh????

When LeBron fails “:madrun people make so many excuses for him :madrun”

When someone else fails more than LeBron did “:cry the competition was so strong, how could you possibly expect him to do more :cry”

Duncan has 5 rings in 6 tries. Lebron has 3 in 9. Duncan succeeded more that Lebron. When you get run over 6 times in the finals you need excuses. Shit tons of them. Unless the goal is winning runner up trophies.

The Motherfucker is 6 for 6. Not much to pick apart when you are 6 for 6. He won more than every single one of his peers. Magic, Bird, Thomas, and denied guys like Ewing, Miller, Malone, Barkley Rings. Jordan buried them all..

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 06:36 PM
So you’re giving Duncan credit for losing more often before the Finals?


5 rings to 3. And a way past his prime Duncan beat Lebron. Yeah competition was a bitch for Lebron. Duncan's Spurs rolled him..


But why couldn’t he get to the Finals nine times?

That is like asking why didn't other teams get to the Superbowl 4 times in a row like the Buffalo Bills?

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 06:58 PM
:lmao Duncan is superior because he got his ass kicked by the 8 seed Grizzlies, instead of losing in the Finals :lmao what incredible logic.

He is better because he needed less chances to win his rings. And he beat that ass two times. If it takes me 10 years to earn a million bucks, and it takes you 20.. Who invested better?

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 07:03 PM
He needed the same amount of chances, he just got his ass kicked earlier in the process, and more often.

Lebron has 3 fella.. 3.. You know 1,2 uhhhhh oh yeah 3.... "Not 5, Not 6, Not 7, Not 8, Not 9" LOL.. No just 3..

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 07:10 PM

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 07:15 PM
Buffalo getting to 4 straight Super Bowls and losing is a tougher, more impressive accomplishment than the 91 Redskins winning it once and never going again.

Did he not? 5 beats 3...

All BS aside what you don't get is Lebron's legacy is largely tied to all of this losing. Failing to deliver the goods in the big moments. Jordan is the man people always compare him too. He was the Ultimate winner. He delivered the goods in the modern NBA like no other. When he got to the final step, Shit was all over with.. Done.. Lebron failed over and over to deliver in THE MOMENT.. Massive knock on his legacy..

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 07:34 PM
If Jordan was the Ultimate Winner why did he lose so much before getting to the Finals? Why did he only get there 6 times when LeBron did it 9 times?

So Lebron is better than Jordan with 3 rings to Jordan's 6? Is that right?

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 07:38 PM
All I said is that LeBron’s 9 Finals appearances is more than Jordan’s 6. If Jordan is the Ultimate Winner why did he lose so much before the Finals?

If Lebron is better than Jordan or Tim why do they both have more rings?

Chris
08-02-2019, 07:41 PM
I’m not the one claiming that Dirk failing pre-Finals helps his legacy. Keep up, Chris. Sad!

No one is making that claim. You just made that shit up :lol This is your straw man. Sad!

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 07:45 PM
Nobody here claimed LeBron is better. His 9 Finals appearances is more than Jordan or Duncan’s 6. Do you not understand numbers?

Why did Jordan and Duncan lose so much more pre-Finals than LeBron? You know, if they’re Ultimate Winners and LeBron is a loser with excuses and all, then why couldn’t they get there 9 times or more?

My point is Duncan and Jordan are both better than Lebron and I told you why about 15 times.. Finals apps mean nothing without cashing them in. It is like having a winning lotto ticket you did not bother to cash. Worthless..

dbreiden83080
08-02-2019, 07:55 PM
So losing to an 8 seed is equal to losing in the Finals? Okay then :lmao

Wining 5 rings to his 3 is what makes him better..

Magnified by them essentially playing in the same era, and meeting in the Finals 3 times. Duncan wins again 2-1.. Duncan also stayed in SA and never cried about needing to leave to form a Super team. He did not call up Dirk and say "Lets play together, this shit is too hard"..

Give David Griffin a break. He had just been forced to trade the most coveted player in basketball. He had a sympathetic media that was even more sympathetic once he started leaking everything including his bathroom schedule. People were grateful enough to utter on the records that the Pelicans "won" the trade. Then people saw the Pelicans play.
