So, I know my opinion doesn't matter much to all involved. I still have to say after watching this first half of basketball, Lebron Is really good and strong. Strong is the key. He has no Jordan rules.

I always feel as tho I'm watching a game of cat and mouse with real cat's and mice of men.

 

[loomis41973]

This shit is unwatchable. LJ's crybaby routine is laughable.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Cleveland is playing lights out, and this game should be all but over.

Then KD put on a cape. Should be a fun second half......

 

[Circa]

It's as If they took all the media money and said hey. I'll post all of your greatest shots and make you our hero. So tired of comparisons to the good teams of the past.

 

[NDRock]

Durant was incredible tonight.

 

[loomis41973]

Lovely to see

 

[loomis41973]

Curry with 11 points and the Cavs still can't win.... They don't even belong in the same breath.

 

[Crazy Balki]

And this is why Jordan > LeBron.

Despite ESPN's best efforts to continue the LeBron GOAT wankfest, he put up great offensive numbers, but what went unnoticed by these so-called "sports experts" is that Durant completely dominated him on defense. 43 points on 65% shooting. Curry was non-existent tonight, so the real threat was blatantly obvious. Shut Durant down, with a cold Curry, YOU WIN! And yet, LeBron's lazy defense dooms them.

I just don't get that. Yeah, I need to focus on the 6'3 guard, my boys got the SEVEN FOOT FORWARD SHOOTING LIGHTS OUT!

How anyone watches the NBA is beyond me, every year I try,... and after five minutes I’m like, ‘dafaq am I doing? This shit sucks ass?!’

They were switching him off the entire night... Literally nothing to do there unless you want to leave Curry or Iggy open for a wide open shot or dunk. Since you know basketball so much better than the so-called experts, figure out how to stop teams from switching players by using screens yourself Sean. When you do be sure to call someone because you'll have just solved the greatest defensive challenge for this era of basketball. You could get paid good money for that.

I am surprised that teams seem to switch on everything. Not sure why guys no longer go under the screen. It's one thing when you're afraid of giving guys like Curry or Klay any room but I would much rather give Lebron a 28 footer than switching and having Curry try to guard him.

Only time I ever thought Lebron was good...? He wre a green jersey on the cover of SI against high school children.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Looks like the final chapter of Lebron in Cleveland is gonna end on a really sour note.

Think GH was right awhile back: the legacy would have been better off with a game 7 loss to Boston. Cavs didnt have the horses this year, and Lebron overachieved up to this point, before falling into the buzzsaw.

 

[Irishnuke]

What a shitty series. Now the off-season drama begins.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Looked like Lebron left without shaking anyones hand. Geez.

 

[zelezo vlk]

The NBA silly season can be as fun as the CFB one.

Had to catch that plane to L.A.

 

[NDVirginia19]

Wake me up in 2-4 years when the Warriors' dynasty breaks up

 

[Irish2155]

Lebron should think about Indiana to team up with Oladipo.

Hahahahahaha. No way he’s going to consider a small market team.

 

[greyhammer90]

He dabbed all the Warriors up when he was pulled from the game. He and Durant basically hugged.

That took heart, especially with a broken hand.

Lol....

I found it ironic that James hurts his hand after game 1, then puts up 29, 13 & 9 in game 2, then 33, 10 & 11 in game 3 and 23, 7 & 8 in game 4, then shows up in the PC after G4 with his hand in a cast. Poor way to try and make an excuse. This injury wasn't where he couldn't have waited until after the PC to get his hand taken care of. The guy is one of the two all time best, but apparently is worried about his legacy.

I respect your opinion, but Kobe was so close to Jordan I'll take Jordan 2.0 over Lescuse all day.

Lebron fans will get their stats and conference championships. My Kobe crew will get a psochopathic competitiveness, and championships.

Agreed, Kobe was definitely top 50. Oh wait, we're talking top 2. Kobe wasn't in that from any metric evaluation that I can find. Must be the "Koon Eye Test"?

"He wants it more, he's a leader...like Malik" ~ probably Koon

 

[OhioIrish31]

LeBron = GOAT. He has earned the right to go wherever he wants. Just hope he doesn't do a one hour special on ESPN to announce. I'll root for him regardless of where he goes...with the exception of the Warriors.

Agree. NOBODY expected the Cavs to win, so I dont see the need for this whole injury angle. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, and assuming he really did have an injury, the general consensus among the pro announcers was still to just leave it be, and walk away without publicizing it.
