Lets be honest..Lebron has no business in the Finals this year

Walulu · 05-12-15, 09:12 PM

Someone will disagree with you and say he's being given everything. That he isn't very good and wait for it - it's all part of the script. Ha! Monster game tonight.

Which makes what he is doing all the more remarkable...now obviously the refs and the league want him there as well..LOL...so we must keep this in mind...but the calls have not gone his way very much in this series...the entire team is hurt...and despite the worst shooting slump of his career...he is beating a bulls team that was built to beat a team like the Cavs....

Given the injuries the Cavs have sustained..I would reckon Lebron is currently in a worse situation this year than he was last year..if he makes the finals..regardless of the outcome...its a successful year...

it really is quite amazing what he is able to pull off.. this is a first year team...
with a huge contributor out..

if the Bulls lose this series with Love out for EVERY game, and a second starter out
for an additional two games.. Rose will be destroyed by the media.

this cavs team is reminding me of ohio state from the cfb season...no business being anywhere near a chip, then all of a sudden they're champs. LeBron goes down as the GOAT no question if he wins a ring this year.

LOL at the lebron nut huggers spinning this like the cavs are some 8th seed underdog story.

East is an absolute joke and referees have clearly influenced games 3,4 and 5 towards the cavs favor. (Referees saw Blatt calling timeout in game 4, in game 3 lebron got away with so many push offs and charges and when butler cleanly stripped him they called fouls).

In game 5 Taj Gibson was called for a flagrant 2 which was an absolute joke, those 2 points were the difference in the game.

SMH the things lebola stans will do to protect their man.

just like tOSU. expected to contend for a title pre-season, then suffered several serious injuries, but they got to play in a weak conference and "figure themselves out"...despite these injuries and some obvious fixing (like getting a playoff bid that they did not deserve) they get to the big dance and go on a crazy run.

The Ohio State University crushed the 2 best teams in the country. This years championship fits the literal definition of undisputed.

LOLOL...nonsense......Contrary to what you have been told... the EAST is NOT a joke...The Hawks, Wizards and the Bulls when healthy are more than formidable opponents for the Cavs...most people WERE NOT picking the Cavs to win this year..on or off paper..they are not the best team

Kryie was averaging less assists per game than Nick Young...lol.....Dion Waiters was shooting more than Kobe....lol....So what does Lebron do? Moves himself to the point...ships Waiters out of town and facilitates a trade for Smith and Shumpert in tandem with Mozgov..without those trades..the Cavs might have barely snuck in with the 8th seed...... Lebron demanded those trades happen...and look where we are...

He molded Kyrie into the player he is now...single handedly turned JR Smith's career around..has motivated Tristan Thompson and found a way to make him happy to come off the bench. Lebron is the GM, coach and best player on the team...what he has done with that team in less than 1 full season is unprecedented...and now they are banged up and still 1 game away from the ECF...

Even though your conclusion is horribly flawed, what happens when the cavs beat the Hawks (1 seed) and warriors (1 seed)? They just beat the 2 best teams in the nba.

Walulu · 05-13-15, 05:22 PM

How is that conclusion horribly flawed?

Because they weren't supposed to be there in the first place, only year one and we saw a rigged, political playoff committee screw a team and move them from 3 to 6 simply because they wanted to.

Menses nails it. Again.

this pretty much sums it up, and the reason why LeBron is continuously able to pull this off
is that he actually wants other players to play well around him–

vs. kobe.. who wants everyone to play poorly EXCEPT himself.
Always seeking to be the SINGULAR reason for a Laker victory.

Kyrie is learning a great deal from LeBron, one can only wonder
what boulders of gold LeBron drops on him in practice

A first year team 1 game away from the Conference Finals is a huge feat.
Lakers tried this with Nash and Howard trade, but Kobe was the Captain of that ship,
and that sank pretty quick. 8th Seed was swept in the 1st Round by the Spurs

If you think Alabama and Oregon werent the top 2 teams in the nation prior to the playoffs than your an idiot. Say what you want about the choices but ball dont lie: tOSU undisputed best team in the country.

TCU was disputably better.
