Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Lebron is best player of all time and if he plays to 45 then it would just cement that fact.

Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
If LeBron keeps up this pace through the playoffs and carries the Lakers to the Finals, the GOAT debate will be dead.

Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Too much whining, too much flopping/acting. He might be the most talented and durable ever, but for me the goat is also a way of being, and he doesn't check that box, at least not like MJ.
Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
In terms of increasing the fortunes of the league and the importance of the game to society and culture, MJ is still the GOAT.

And in terms of not being a wuss who lost the vast majority of the times he made it to the Finals, MJ is also still the GOAT.
Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
I hate that criticism. MJ was just on better teams. When he retired and the Bulls replaced him with Pete Myers, they didn’t do a lot worse. They didn’t win a championship, but they legitimately contended for one. Compare that to what happened to LeBron’s teams when he left.
Seriously, going 6/6 with a team that can contend without you is a lot less impressive than going 4/10 with teams that are crap without you.

Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
MJ didn't just demand the best out of himself, he also laid into his teammates who he felt weren't putting in the effort. Maybe his teams were better, but part of that was he made them be better.Cap wrote: ↑Fri Dec 08, 2023 6:50 pmI hate that criticism. MJ was just on better teams.

We're all Pacers fans tonight. Go Jalen Smith.
Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
These refs are calling too many fouls
Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Almost unwatchable.
Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Some are warranted. LeBron picks up his defender and puts him back down a step behind. Doc Rivers says, “I think the game has been called way too close.”

Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Can’t touch Reaves though or it’s a foul

Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Lebron looks spry. 12/5/4. AD has 17/11. Reaves going off for 22 points on 7/9 shooting. Looks like the Lakers want this thing.
Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Is it just because I’m a Laker hater or do they get favorable treatment from the refs? Felt like that all game long.

NBA must be thrilled that its favorite team won their shiny new trophy. FUCK THE LAKERS!!!

Anthony Davis got robbed.
Re: NBA In-Season Tournament
Perfect ending for the league and the Cup. It was probably most important for LBJ to win it all and get MVP.
The Lakers are tough right now. It's still early so need to see how they maintain but they scare me a bit.
