The Heat teams were better in paper but no the Cavs teams were never better on paper...and I mean never.

The Cavs were more talented than the Warriors before KD. A team of Steph, Klay, and Draymond vs LeBron, Kyrie, and Love who are you choosing?

Because he can be in the argument WHILE carrying TEAMS that were lesser talents than the TEAMS they faced in the finals. That is something that CAN exist. This isnt tennis.
So why do people say Duncan is better than Malone if not because of the success Duncan helped his team achieve?

You Coli dudes so goofy, only women argue pointless shyt now? Is that why most of you argue the same Bron and Kobe talking points for years now?:dead:
Hit dogs holler right? :umad:

You trying to argue this point in a thread about sports is exactly my point. The point is that women try to pick pointless arguments to go back and forth about. Not that women have discussions

Idiots continue to conflate a players performance to their finals record. Bron did not perform poorly or hold his teams back in the finals he lost outside of Dallas. the TEAMS he were on werent better. God god you dudes are idiots
The Spurs team that beat Lebron on paper did not have less talent. A washed Duncan, past their primes Parker and Ginobili and Kawhi who was nowhere near even all star level at that point.

It's just as idiotic to look at individual numbers and say someone played great while ignoring how them getting their numbers may have hurt the team. When they lost against the Spurs Lebron put up amazing numbers but at the same time completely killed the Heat offense as the majority of possessions came down to Lebron calling for pick after pick to get Kawhi off them until the shot clock ran down. At some point you have to look at why talented teams on paper don't get it done with Lebron. He's the modern day Wilt. Puts up great individual numbers but his teams constantly fall short against teams that play more like teams.

I dont care. The idea that a GOAT cannot be on a lesser TEAM in the finals, and more than once, seems to fly over your head. I just dont get why its so difficult to absorb. Smh

So they only had three players each? :what:

You left off the 2015 Finals MVP as if he wasn't better than Love too. Harrison Barnes was better than anyone else on that Cavs roster as well for 97% of the season. And the Warriors had multiple bigs on the bench who were better than the Cavs' best backup big.

Cavs basically only had 8 players who should have even been on the floor during a playoff game and two of those were Delly and Shump. They were shallow as hell compared to the Warriors.

They were more talented and had a HOF coach leading them. I dont recall you going into that series favoring the Heat. I know I didnt. And NO...its NOT idiotic to look at a player whose play did not hold back his team. What is it? Did Lebrons play pull the Heat down vs the Spurs? Say that, and youre making point. If you cant, then Im 100% spot on. You can be a GOAT and your TEAM still lose.

no the Warriors just play team ball in a system which utilizes it's entire Roster, the Cavs played Bron Ball which minimizes the talents of everyone else not named Bron.

The Cavs won a ship. You made “Bron ball” out to be something holding the Cavs and its players back from being competitive with the Warriors. :dahell:

These are some of the shyttiest posts one can make.

And you futther proved my point by bringing up Wilt. Wilt is considered an all time GOAT in spite of his finals record. Is that supoosed to be a slight towards Lebron? :mjlol:

My LORD you still post some of the easiest to debunk shyt...
