Anthony Davis just told Lebron

[steph_harden]

AD is great. nikkas been criticizing him for being too willing to play the background...but that’s why he fits in perfect with Bron. Bron will always be the star and that’s why a dude like Kyrie couldn’t handle it. As long as AD steps up for his team when they need him then it’s fine...he gets to learn how to win, he gets to play in big games and it’s gonna have him ready when he’s 30 to be that guy full time

That being said...if the Lakers finish Denver best believe Bron will be going hard in the paint. Those East squads don’t have answers for him and he’ll def show his ass against the Heat. AD ain’t getting FMVP this year....no way

 

[Big Boss]

Just like Pau should’ve won it vs Boston

Naw kobe led the team in scoring

 

[god shamgod]

Because that wasn't his role, like I said.

Just like AD has never facilitated a game like Pippen and Kyrie/Wade never shut down an opponent's offensive production like he could.

But if you think Pippen was an inferior complimentary player to Kyrie or 2012/13 Wade (AD remains to be seen), you're being a clown.





I didn't say MJ "just scored". But his primary role was scoring. Everything else was secondary.

Pippen was the primary facilitator, secondary scorer, a more significant rebounder, and the most important perimeter defender who took the toughest assignments.

This will be a fun one for looking at stats vs. knowing what happened. Do you think MJ was the primary facilitator in those Finals? Do you know how he got those assists?

I’m old enough to remember the bulls Vividly fam , guarding Xavier McDaniel,Stacey augmon,mckie Jerome kersey etc isn’t the “toughest assignments” especially in an era where C’s and pf’s were the cornerstones

kyrie dropping 40 in a finals game,wade 42 in a playoff game and ad scoring 10 straight + the gw is more impactful than that Iguodala bs y’all tryin to gas

that being said , my point was made we can agree to disagree I don’t do stan wars

20 Playoffs, 4th quarter

Davis 5.9 ppg 64.9%FG 50.0%3PT
Rondo 5.0 ppg 65%FG 70% 3PT
James 4.3 ppg 38.6%FG 18.8%3PT
Kuzma 3.8 ppg 46.9%FG 35.3%3PT

Is Lebron the 4th best 4th quarter scorer on the Lakers?

The Celtics can make Bron work though so they might tire him out.

 

[Voice of Reason]

BRON GROUPIES SHAMELESSLY WORKIN OVERTIME ALONG WIT THE MEDIA TO CONTINUE PRETENDING LIKE AD DOESNT LEAD THE LAKERS IN EVERY SINGLE STAT CATEGORY OUTSIDE OF ASSISTS IN BOTH THE REGULAR SEASON AND PLAYOFFS.

LAST NIGHT LEBRON WAS CRYIN BOUT HOW HE ONLY HAD 16 FIRST PLACE MVP VOTES WHEN HIS SUPERIOR TEAMMATE HAD ZERO.. DONT THINK AD DOESNT SEE ALL THAT.

IF U A REAL LAKER FAN N NOT JUST ROOTING FOR LEBRON, YOU HATE TO SEE IT.

This weirdo right here. Any lakers fan knows who is the engine of this team. Bron makes this team go

 

[Dwight Howard]

Damian Lillard says LeBron is his MVP this year

Jayson Tatum says he would give LeBron MVP this year

Draymond Green believes LeBron should win MVP this year

Isiah Thomas says LeBron is MVP of the NBA

Magic Johnson says LeBron is "definitely the MVP" this season

Frank Vogel says LeBron should be voted MVP

Kyle Kuzma thinks LeBron should win MVP

Danny Green believes LeBron is NBA MVP: "He's our engine."

DeMarcus Cousins: "If you don't pick LeBron, you're just a flat-out hater"

Anthony Davis, Danny Green, Frank Vogel add to case for LeBron to be MVP



Personally, I think Giannis deserved MVP, though it was getting close before COVID interfered. But it's OBVIOUS that 90-95% of the league thinks LeBron, not AD, is the clear MVP of the Lakers.

So do all y'all who obsess about LBJ 24/7 and barely even pay attention to AD unless you're trying to cast subliminals at Bron.

Give your mouth a rest

 

[Dwight Howard]

Just like Pau should’ve won it vs Boston

 

[Diondon]

I hope they do the right thing and give AD Finals MVP
But...you know...the narrative

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Can’t recall a day without you acting like a bytch either.

 

[McPiff]

I hope they do the right thing and give AD Finals MVP
But...you know...the narrative

yeah they should hand him the trophy over right now.

 

[steph_harden]

He might have to work but I don’t think he’ll tire out. He’s just so much more experienced and better on that stage...

In the series we're talking about the series turned when Scottie began taking Magic but okay, we won't stan-war it.

You talk about Kyrie/Wade scoring 40 once every 20 games get ignore the games they scored 5 on 2-13 shooting and got ate on defense too.

Pippen was better than Kyrie and better than 2012/13 Wade more often than not when his entire impact on that team including defense was factored in. But a lot of y'all are ppg warriors so you never see that.

Try to make your agenda less obvious when you declare the FMVP before anyone has even qualified.

I've already shown you what other players and staff think about whether LeBron or AD is the MVP right now. So if you're picking AD as guaranteed already then you're just spitting stan bullshyt.

 

[Billy Ocean]

That Bron 4th ring is inevitable so this is what you sucka nikkas have been reduced to

Will AD outscore, outrebound, outblock, outsteal Lebron with a higher FG & FT% in the Finals? A simple yes or no, Shannon
