Cavs: 2 more wins..

Anyone who wouldn't replace soft, broke ass Splitter with Thompson is a in moron, point blank

Comparing a skilled, well-rounded player like Splitter to a one trick pony like Thompson.

Lebron's absolutely incredible. Easily the best player in the world and it's not even close, and if he wins this thing with that roster against this Warriors team, it'll be the single most impressive showing in NBA history, period. And in my eyes he's already a Top 3 player all-time, certainly will be by the time he hangs 'em up. And imo will be be fighting for that #1 spot.

With that said, I don't really understand why 21st century sports fans have to put down other player's accomplishments in order to build up another's. I see it everywhere. It's just unnecessary, tbh. What Jordan did was incredible, as is what Lebron is doing. People who do that either have a personal vendetta against Jordan or are just massive Lebron fanboys, tbh.

Skilled? That MF has no post moves, can't rebound to save his life and has one of the ugliest jumphooks ever. He can't even stay on the court half the time because he's frail

Pretty incredible if he pulls it off with that supporting cast. Nothing short of amazing I've never seen anything like it. That is literally a d-league team outside of Lebron. I don't know if he's the goat but he will have cemented his legacy in the top 5.

Lebron is making Moz deny Draymond Green at the rim every single time he tried to drive?
Lebron is making Delly hustle all over the place and get in Curry's head and deliver timely offense when the Cavs only had a 1 point lead late in the 4th?
Lebron is making Tristan Thompson a rebounding monster that's in GS's head so bad they're trying to face guard him to keep him off the boards?

The answer to all of that is no. Give the "scrubs" their due.

I think they all turn it up a notch because of LBJ and his unselfishness. My only problem with LBJ is he relies on that so-so jumper of his too much during crunch time. If I had his size, speed, and agility I would be barreling it to the rim every time I had the ball when the game got close during the closing minutes.

yup pretty much all that and more, spot on. What I never noticed before is what a vocal leader he's become. He's out there calling out plays and telling guys to rotate on defense constantly. He's even reigned in the ultimate knucklehead jr smith

Yup that is the one criticism but at his age and the minutes he's played I think he does a lot of that to conserve energy trying to evolve his game like others have done before him.

You don't become Euroleague MVP as a bigman without having post moves. Him not needing to display them on the NBA game doesn't mean he doesn't have them. Even if he didn't, his all-around game is still way more complete than Tristan Thompson's offensive rebounds. You're just being a prisioner of the moment right now.

Is James even Top 3 since Jordan?

Duncan, Kobe, Shaq

I noticed that too. Its weird because its not like he's a ultimate scoring machine, but you kinda just know that you aren't going to lose when he's running the show. He knows how to do a little bit of everything on the court at a above normal level.

Why you be disrespecting a fellow caucasian like that son?

This guy is talking Top 3 ALL TIME. I ask if he's even Top 3 over the last 15 years

I just wish he'd learn to operate out of the high post more often and look to pass post up or drive out of the triple threat, that would be unstoppable!!

Spades a spade he's a competent backup center don't get me wrong but that's about it

Prisoner of the moment my ass lol. I've seen what this guy has done to every frontline the Cavs have faced in these playoffs. Tristan Thompson has been delivering the same numbers for the last 3+ years and has been on the court for 82 games every season. Are you seriously telling me you'd rather have a Euro who gets winded very easily, has no offensive game outside of rolling to the rim for an easy layup off a PnR pass, is allergic to dunking or finishing strong, who can barely board and lastly can book him to miss at least 30+ games every season because he's made of glass over a damn hustler/rebounder difference maker like Thompson who's basically the exact opposite of the player I just described? No way lol. And to top it off you're paying Splitter 10 million a season for that . How in the did he get that kind of contract with his producion? Holy

I'd still rather have Splitter than Canadian Reggie Evans tbh.

I'm aware of that

He must also think Russell Wilson is Top 3 All Time

why are you comparing russell wilson to lebron james ... lebron is been the best player in the nba for about 7-8 years now. wilson hasn't been the best player in the NFL ever

I thought you were making a joke about putting Kirby in that company. i was giving you too much credit, my bad tbh.

MVPs over the past 2 years

Wilson - 0
James - 0

Finding a Bulls fan that isn't a complete re when it comes to analyzing basketball is damn near impossible tbh.
