    Lebron Excuses

    Do u guys feel like listing his excuses before he gets wiped out of the finals or wait untill the talking heads fill ya up with them? I hear a lot of talk about how "Lebron is gonna will his team" and all that other bullshit. C'mon guys list the excuses before the finals end. I will list a few to start off.

    1. Love is hurt. Didn't matter last series but of course it will this time around
    2. Irving is banged up. Didn't matter last series but of course when they get wiped out it will be a big excuse this time around
    3. Lebron over the years has played a lot of games and is now gassed. He say's he feels great but of course this excuse will rear its ugly head if the series gets ugly.
    4. Lebron is a one man team. They will soon forget what JR Smith has been doing as well as a few others to get them where they are.

    Just a few fellas.

    Win or lose, I think he's great. Best player to watch in the NBA. Plays hard every single play.

    I don't think they lose so excuses won't be necessary.

    You don't seem to care about real life, I'm wondering why you care about a game so much.

    Oh and im gonna set an over and under on how many times we will hear that Lebron is the best player on the planet. I say maybe 105 times. Even when these talking heads have something negative to say about him they always follow it up with "he is the best player on the planet". Never once heard JOrdan called this lol but every five minutes we have to be reminded this about Lebron while he shoots a five foot brick.

    wrong. actually if the cavs lose there is no excuse needed, as vegas expects them to lose

    the warriors are -230 to win the series so if they lose they would need an excuse. it would be a warriors choke

    Zeta gets it. Who needs an excuse when you're the underdog?

    Not to mention the first three are valid "excuses"

    The LBJ hate on this forum is unreal. If anybody is entitled to hate him its Cleveland fans. I dont get how anyone could just loathe someone for being good.

    The GOAT will always be hated by some. Just the way it is but make no mistake about it he is the GOAT.

    Jordan did not face this kind of hatred...and he did far worse off the court...but most of it was covered up (Screwing Mickeleson's wife, Rick Fox Wife, mafia gambling etc) as Jordan was too important and made too much money for his Masters. But as long as kids kept buying his shoes and those same kids shot those kids for those same shoes, all was well..White executives got rich...Jordan got rich....public didn't care...but Lebron has a televised announcement of which the proceeds go towards kids..and the trolls call him monkey all over the internet...LOL......Jordan my ass...

    I still don't understand how people hates someone that you should enjoy watching. Lebron is a great player and i love watching likes of him, Curry Kobe e.t.c
    What i don't really like is the GOAT some are calling him as i for one thinks Jordan wasjust too much to handle. Jordan just has that extra thing that makes you know he won't lose. Lebron's game is more completed imo but Jordan has the game of a freaking winner.

    Jordan was the most beloved player ever. NBA would assassinate any ref who dared blow a whistle against him, or not blow one against any player looking at his Airness without the proper respect. And forget about any writers doing a bad piece on him. They'd have their fingers broken before the printer ran. The NBA and Nike covered up every incident involving Mike. Everyone with a brain knows his "flu game" was actually a "hungover from last nights gambling bender game".

    Lebron has never gotten a pass the way Jordan did.

    Guys get too emotional over rooting for Cleveland to win. Golden state outmatches them in most areas.

    Classic.
    I think we all can agree this team is much better without love.
    And in order to beat Warriors Irving will have to contribute.
    Lebron was able to carry a team against a shet hawks team but he cannot beat the warriors by himself.

    What is the difference between excuses and legitimate reasons?

    Love being out is somewhat of an excuse because he probably would help in this series

    James has built in excuses every year.

    1st-finals- shit team. - I agree.
    2nd finals. - He wasn't ready. This is the one he had no excuse for.
    3rd finals- he was great and won.
    4th finals - he got lucky but hey he won right.
    5th finals- spurs wanted revenge and when james knew he was up against it he got dehydrated.
    6th finals- team has injuries- but if he wins he is the greatest.

    The guy has built in excuses. He had shit teams. No stars with him. Meanwhile the 4 years when he had the best team he somehow only managed to go 2-2 and should have went 1-3. He picked this cavs team then when love wasn't working out he threw him under. I don't want to hear a word about love. Also james took 2 weeks off so I don't want to hear how he is tired. He must win- anything else is a failure.
