Which is why I ask...since LeBron & his camp and the media behind him are big on his legacy, how’s he gonna fair if AD wins FMVP?
Cuz are we sure from what we’ve seen in the regular season and postseason so far that AD isn’t the #1 on the Lakers?
Lol bruh...
LeBron is in his 17th year. If AD shows out and wins FMVP, I guess Bron gets to join the looonnngggg list of other greats who added chips to their resumes but weren't Finals MVP, from Kareem all the way down to guys like Kidd (who people consider a Top 10 point), and a whole bunch of guys in between....
He's proven his worth on Finals stages many times over, proven his worth as the best player on his team many times over, there really was nothing else to prove except all the Coli heads on here and elsewhere, who swore up and down he was washed and would retire at 3 rings...
That said, unless AD completely blacks out from this point forward (possible, though unlikely), LeBron will still be viewed as the best player on the '20 Lakers. And in this postseason so far, AD had the better series vs Portland, LeBron had the better series vs Houston, and so far AD is having more success vs Denver, so the Lakers have the luxury of them trading the hot hand (as the Lakers have historically had on their championship teams going back to the Wilt/West/Baylor days)...
As someone else just said, this is gonna be AD's team in short order anyway by virtue of age if nothing else. If this is the "pass the torch" moment, good for all parties involved, and he's been supremely blessed to learn from LeBron. Bron's legacy is fine and just continues to grow, nothing AD does can be spun into a negative for LeBron and I'm sure Bron amd his people arent concerned about this...
Also you didn't say this, but these idiots im here suggesting "the media" wouldn't give AD FMVP, if he blacks out in The Finals and LeBron is relatively pedestrian by his standards, he'll get it easily...
Do you guys realize this is the first shot worth a damn AD has ever taken & made?
Yall don’t want to slow down before we see some consistency?
This is originally what I was coming in here to say lol...
On top of that. This bipolar forum can't decide when they think AD is legit or not, we know why they dikkriding him right now...
Is this gonna be the Wave if the Lakers keep winning?
To try and play some sort of: "AD is a great player" steez? I mean, we knew that. And we know that.
Seems an odd choice to go with though when TheColi felt some type of way about the AD trade though:

People argued against him being top 5 in the league here:

And there's plenty more... But I guess when your opposition is killing you by winning chips and succeeding while you die on the inside, you gotta settle for any kind of side swipe you can get...
Lot of miserable heads on here, Bron triggers misery in alot of these nikkas. Such a desperate thread lmao...
