I am a LeBron fan, but we have to discuss how this dude devalued Chris Bosh and Kevin Love...

It's not cool either. Bron turned these all-star caliber players into glorified spot up shooters for him who lost crazy value in terms of what people think of them in terms of individual players.

Tonight is a good example. Cleveland is destroying Detroit right now.
Kevin Love - 19 points on 8/12 shooting and 11 boards.

That stat line flashed me back to the kind of performances Bosh was putting up in Miami and all got ignored. So much so that Bosh was being reduced from being part of a "big 3" to the big 2 + 1/2.

Granted Kevin Love never won shyt without Bron, but I still think it is worth noting :manny:

We covered this just last week. All you saying is that fans way overvalue "#1 option" now.

Bosh was a 3rd option for a Miami team that had shooters too - how much do you think he could get? Playing with Bron he got way more focused on defense, became a much more efficient scorer, developed a three, and STILL was making just as many shots per 36 as he had before Bron. His scoring average only went down because he played fewer minutes than he did when he was "the guy", and he had the ball in his hands less so he drew fewer fouls. But who did you want to take the ball away from, Bron or Wade?

Love was always a below-average inside scorer who got overrated being "the man" on a bad team. He's supposed to be a big yet he's a career 47% shooter from two - you realize how mediocre that is? In his last year on the Timberwolves he shot more threes than he ever has as a Cav, and he got a big ppg number running a lot of pick-and-roles with Rubio that resulted in 50-50 five-foot floaters and shyt. That's great for a team that had as few offensive options as the Wolves, but a Lebron offense trying to pace with the Warriors needs better shots than that. He just isn't big or strong or athletic enough to exert his will inside.

Breh's Lets be honest...Low Key Bron is MVP

You didn't "son" shyt in that thread, you used a minute sample size of an on/off stat with no regards to context because once again, YOU AREN'T WATCHING THE GAMES. The fact you tried hanging your argument onto it to deflect away how blatantly wrong you were about Kyrie in the past only speaks to how dishonest you truly are.

You can't admit when you're wrong, and that's all there is to it.

See now, this shyt is all in your head. You haven't been handling anything, only idealizing your own false image of yourself as handling shyt because posters are dapping posts which match their agenda/narrative. That Kyrie shyt was the last straw, I gave you ample opportunity to admit you were wrong, but instead, you pulled the same routine you do every time when you know you're wrong but won't admit it.

You mean @LV Koopa who is another scorned poster (who actually admitted to taking Ls from me), who's just being petty and will push any pro-CP3 propaganda, regardless if it's right or not. Or @Easy-E who admitted to trolling in favor of CP3 because he feels he gets harshly treated on this board? That thread has turned into a circle-jerk dapfest between posters who have an agenda against me and CP3 stans.

I could easily point to posts of mine which were upped and/or repped for me "sonning" you, but what would it prove exactly when you'd just dismiss them as Kobe stans/LeBron haters?

:ufdup:I'ma open stan, C.P.3. across the belly, prove you lost already

Most critique against him--and there's plenty of fair critique--is unreasonable

Clippers fans can kiss my ass

Wanna forget they were....Los Angeles Clippers :mjlol: status before Chris Paul came

My new thing is; Blake is basically Shawn Marion...Chris wasn't holding a damn thing back
