    Don't hate the player
    Hate the game

    It's not his fault that he's the best ever, so yes he will win some games

    Calling games fixed because the NBA and refs want the Cavs to move on is idiotic

    I don't care for him as a person, but on the court there's never been anyone better

    And yes, i am old enough to have witnessed Jordan play

            I don't watch much NBA, but does he always have ridiculous flops 3-4 times a game? Sorry, but no respect for that shit.

              The best player ever. He is just lucky that he plays in the D league conference all these years so he has any trophies. There is a reason he doesn't leave the eastern conference.

                Lebrick not even the best player of his own era, Kobe, KD and Steph way better

                Lebrick isn't even a top 15 player all time, maybe borderline top 20

                Plus the NBA is rigged

                  Agree, it's very disappointing to see. He should be bigger than that.

                        Anybody that thinks Cleveland got the benefit of the calls in that game is stupid. The refs kept Indiana in that game all the way to the cover. That should have been an easy double digit win but the refs was paid to keep it close.

                                I will put your post to rest

                                Lebron doesn't leave the east because he knows that if ge changes conferences there will be no competition in the finals

                                Being the competitor he is, he puts the East on his back knowing that he's the only player who has a chance against a stacked conference.

                                I know there's not a lot of critical thinking going on around here, but hopefully we can put the whole LeBron staying in the east because it's easy crap to rest.

                                  Sourtwist, the game was 100% rigged.

                                  I used to be like you, believed everything I saw, and then started doing my own research. I did some digging. I found the truth.

                                  I'm going to keep this incredibly vague, but there are higher-ups.....people with agendas, manipulating the situation from behind the curtain.

                                  Trust me, I used to share your exact same naive thoughts.

                                  Do your research. It's out there.

                                          This is bullshit. Why should the NBA realign? Did it realign when the best teams were clearly the Bulls, Pistons and Celtics for years? That's just media bullshit. Look at the West. It's a fukking mess. Houston is clearly the best team, followed by GS but who else? Portland? They're done. OKC? They're done too. Do you really think the Pelicans or Utah can keep up with any team left in the East? The West has a lot of horseshit teams that have zero chance of competing. 10-15 in the West fukking sucks, which pads the other teams. The top of the West looks great with GS and Houston, but can we really count on Houston? I'm still not sure. GSW had to get Durant to even keep up with other teams. The East is clearly on the rise. Teams like Philly and the Celtics are going to give the NBA fits.

                                          I think the East takes the title this year. GS and Houston are both jump shooting teams that a physical series will take it's toll. We shall soon see.

                                            Well you can think what you want but we all know why he has stayed in the east. He has known for 10+ years that playing in the east makes him only have to beat one team that is any good to win a championship and that is the team he faces in the finals. I am not one to pat the guy on the back for making all these finals when the teams he is playing aren't any better than his own team without him. It basically a bunch of mediocre teams and LeBron in the east. He is a great athlete but he padded his stats on a weak ass conference his whole career.

                                              I'd have no problem rooting for the sixers in the finals. Think they have the best shot.

                                                It's not his fault that he's the best ever, so yes he will win some games

                                                Calling games fixed because the NBA and refs want the Cavs to move on is idiotic

                                                I don't care for him as a person, but on the court there's never been anyone better

                                                And yes, i am old enough to have witnessed Jordan play

He has known for 10+ years that playing in the east makes him only have to beat one team that is any good to win a championship and that is the team he faces in the finals. I am not one to pat the guy on the back for making all these finals when the teams he is playing aren't any better than his own team without him. It basically a bunch of mediocre teams and LeBron in the east. He is a great athlete but he padded his stats on a weak ass conference his whole career.
                                                  Don't be a dumb ass. He's stayed in the East because he was from the East, was drafted in the East and his best buddy played in Miami in the East. What team should he go to in the West? GS? Houston? Why would he join them? Lakers? Spurs? Come on man.

                                                  I think he stays in Cleveland this go around. I don't see him going to Philly or the Wiz or the Lakers etc. If anything, he would go back to Miami before going to any other team IMO. To somehow say he chose Cleveland and Miami because they are in the East is stupid and just hating.

                                                        I used to be like you, believed everything I saw, and then started doing my own research. I did some digging. I found the truth.

                                                        I'm going to keep this incredibly vague, but there are higher-ups.....people with agendas, manipulating the situation from behind the curtain.

                                                        Trust me, I used to share your exact same naive thoughts.

                                                        Do your research. It's out there.
                                                        If you make sports betting a corporation it would gross the most out of any corporation in the world. Any imbecile who thinks this stuff is all on the up and up with and no shady stuff at all, should never ever handicap because they will become a big time loser. A trillion dollar industry all on the up and up. You can't make this shit up. Stock market is also straight up and honest gig.

                                                          nah we squashed this the first time it was brought up in the playoffs. It lasted pretty well this time but it just reared its ugly head again. Oh and by the way Lebron did basically nothing in the fourth quarter. When he came in they were up by ten i believe.

                                                              Bullshit. Who has GSW had to play in the West? An aging Spurs team? A pussy in Durant who had to join them because he couldn't beat them? The Spurs owned the West until Duncan got old. No one else gave them a challenge in that conference but you didn't call them out? GSW has had an easy path to the Finals too but you're blind or dumb to see. The West has been horrible at the bottom and the middle. The Spurs and GSW have had all easy paths to the Finals. How about when GS got to the Finals when every team they faced had their star player hurt? They even won the title when Cleveland didn't have Love or Kyrie. You forgot about that shit? Quit hating. You must not follow basketball.

                                                                      Oh and Jordan also lost 2 times in the semis and 2 more times in the conference Finals. And what huge star did he have to go up against in the East? I'll wait your answer. The NBA was very watered down back then because you could grab, hold and hard foul, so the league was full of bruisers who had zero skill.
