    Greek won with BUMS.

    LeBron needed superteams.
    Steph needed 3 hall of famers
    Jordan was in better shape but still the bucks had no pippen.


    Greek had

    Connaughton 😂
    Lopez😂
    Tucker biggest loser ever😂

    Don't think that's fair, Laker. Pretty good shooters.

    You must’ve lost a Suns bet. This Bucks team, top to bottom, all complemented each other so bums is a bit rough.

    Lebron lost all finals when he was playing by himself. And Lebron doesn't play defense anymore.

    I won first hf on Suns. They are all bums except Greek.

    Anyways the point is that he didn't need superstars like the other guys in the past so I give him more credit.

    Just by using your LeBron example he's only 1 or 2 percent worse in his career at free throws lol. Only reason anyone even mentioned his free throws was the 10 second thing, if he really sucked they would of hacked him all season like Simmons.

    Exactly Laker, he didn't run from the challenge and go play superteam bullshit. He played it out, they acquired second tier guys around him that made it work and ultimately they won the championship. Hats off to him because all the other guys who have been winning are front runners.

    Instant legend. No bandwagoning or any of that shit. Giannis just carried an otherwise mediocre team on his back to a championship. Lebron came close to doing that earlier in his career but never pulled it off

    You guys already forgot about Toronto? Lol

    Dont get the disrespect for Middleton and Holiday. Yea Holiday might have shot terribly but his D on Paul and Booker was huge.

    Last individual performance i can remember like this in the Finals was Lebron in the JR Smith game against the warriors.

    not fair to compare that cavs team big underdogs to the SPURS who had a core of guys who already had 3 rings and defense was still the spurs thing at that point... all prior to the shoot a 3 ball 40 times a game era and games with totals prior to tip in the 230s

    I do actually agree with you. It's not a totally fair comparison. I'm actually a pretty big Lebron defender in most instances. He was in a pretty impossible situation trying to almost single-handedly beat that Spurs team with what he had to work with

    I guess I was just trying to provide context for how hard it is to totally carry your team at that level. Even MJ, the goddamned GOAT, when he left for a year the Bulls were still a solid and competitive playoff team led by Pippen

    What Giannis has done here is really impressive and rare

    Don't forget they beat Atlanta twice without him so they actually had a better record without him in the playoffs. As good as he is he kills their spacing they usually score more points without him but he is their defensive and rebounding star though.

    Can we discuss how much better the NBA is now that just a few years ago? The freakin Cavs and Warriors played each other 4 YEARS IN A ROW.
