Huh??? Lebron hasn't lost six Finals. He's now 3-4.
The 2007 Cavs were garbage (and Lebron was all of 22 years old).
Wade's health completely faded down the stretch in Bron's last year in Miami and faced a healthy Spurs juggernaut.
Last year he was playing with a D-league roster in the Finals.
I sometimes wonder if Lebron would have less detractors if he had just lost in the ECF a few of those years, just so his Finals win % would look better. It's an absurd notion, but it probably would quell the outcry over his losses.
I mean the guy has three rings now and people still act like he's supposed to win every damn trophy ever handed out for basketball or else it's a sign of weakness. Get real.Comment -

#73Nobody is MJ. That said, you need some haterade. One of the most important plays to Cavs winning down the stretch was Lebron's chase down block on Iggy. Jordan would never make that block. Heck, he never did. Lebron does that stuff on the reg. They're just different guys. MJ is the best, but Lebron is the best in this era and give him that.Comment -

#85I enjoyed the writhing in pain, pretending to be hurt. That's the new age. Have to throw in that I played through pain. Kobe was great at that. Opie is right, and it's not even close. I think Jordan is a bigger narcissist than Bron but he doesn't hide it. LeBron is a fake in all aspects. He should thank Ray, Kyrie, and the NBA for his two phony titles.Comment -

#88Dude chill out and give LBJ some props. I watched MJ so I know great he was, that's why I wouldn't put any above him but Lebron is a 2nd close. Lebron had high expectation and pressure as the chosen one right out of high school. MJ and Kobe didn't have that. Magic had Kareem to play with early in his career. Taking Cleveland to the Finals in his 2nd year the league in it self was great accomplishment. Cleveland was the joke of the league until the Lebron return, what he accomplish will never happen again in our life time.
What bothers me is his attitude of entitlement. He gets angry over such minor trash talk by Draymond, because God forbid someone slander the King. Then blocks Curry and says who knows what, but supposedly something worse than what Dray said to him according to a reporter. He's smug, phony, and constantly whining. If he just played and was genuine I would have all the respect in the world for him. Jordan was and is an asshole, but doesn't act like he's not. I never liked him either, but respected him. Same with Kobe, though he liked the fake injury then come back and be the hero. Bron is so damn talented and gifted. I just wish he wasn't so narcissistic, and phony in front of the cameras when we know the stories behind closed doors. He has to be loved, and get his way like an overgrown child. That's what happens when you're anointed the best in HS. Granted, he worked hard to stay that way when many others fell off. But with what he was born with, it would be hard to mess up.Comment -

#89Alot of people says Jordan was the greatest ever but people forget that Jordan didn't win anything until Bird and Magic left.And it's too bad Magic left early cause every team Jordans bulls beat for his championships were teams Magics Lakers use to roll over to get to the finals and yes I know Jordan won his 1st beating Magic Lakers but the next 5 were really against nobody Utah Phoenix? And to top that off Jordan couldn't beat birds Celtics and the bad boys from Detroit. Which Magics Lakers did.Comment -

#90Warriors choke, score 0 points at home in game 7 in the last 4:30 of the game.
If Warriors don't choke, Lebron loses again because he played poorly in the 4th quarter.
Kyrie Irving bailed him out. Seems to always happen.
For those of you with short memories, MJ always bailed himself out.Comment -

The fact Bosh, Wade, Irving, and Love all severely produce less with Lebron than they did when they were alone is on Lebron since he's the coach and the GM.
Honestly, penetrate this whole conversation.
Lebron is 3-4 in the finals. Lost to a mediocre Mavericks team. Spurs were 99.8% to win the title that one year and missed free throws, should be 0-3 vs Spurs. Should be 2-5. They won this year because the Warriors were soft, didn't score in the last 4:30 of the game. That's not Lebron stepping up. He had a bad 4th quarter offensively.
If Warriors play mediocre basketball today, Lebron is 2-5, and it should be 1-6.
Lebron James is a coward, a pussy, and a bitch. That's not going to change because Kyrie Irving hit a big 3 and the PAB Warriors choked. Sorry.Comment -

MJ is a winner. Lebron is a pussy who needs winners to hit clutch shots for him or he'll choke on a big rooster at the end. He was trying to in the 4th, but Kyrie wouldn't let it happen.Comment -

and MJ thanked Detroit for the Jordan Rules and making it tough on him... showed him the year before when they lost to Detroit that he had to increase his strength and endurance for the physical play and long 6-7 game series
Detroit prob the reason the Bulls were not defeated in those 6 NBA Finals... they made MJ work on his only weaknesses and turned him into a killer assassin with no weaknessComment -

#100I hate Lebron and I hate the Warriors style of play PAB mentality... so I can't say I'm even upset about this result.
But the biggest takeaway from this series is that the Warriors are not built for post season basketball and are soft as penetrate. Lebron/Cleveland should be taking a back seat from that.Comment -
