Basketball "fans" live in the past.

Stay having discussions about old shyt like a bytch that got cheated on 10 years ago.

 

[RoCKetSity256]

yes he fukking is

KD saw Bron get persecuted by fans for going to south beach and saw how they tried to discredit his rings for teaming up with wade and bosh. Kd then 1 upped him by joining arguably the greatest team in history the 73-9 warriors and teaming with a top 3 player Steph. If Kd cared about the fans opinions on rings he would never have joined them after seeing the way they went at Bron

Kd has said on record that he didnt anticipate all da hate that would come with the GS Move and even told his agent that he ruined his career lol

This nikka be in every basketball thread…complaining about how much he hates basketball…EVERY fukkING DAY

Shout out to all the smooth brained ol heads across the world

Im in plenty of NBA discussions that are good. Because of youre dikk riding of examining me, Im surprised youre not in them.

Second, Sassy A loves to call himself a journalist when a tenet of the profession is to capture the entire content of a conversation before writing on it. The clown intentionally took a piece of a conversation which was already addressed and ran with it to malign.

Fox News 101. You swallow the dikk whole

Telltale sign of lame shyt is when someone announces this wack shyt.

I know it's hard for Bron fans to digest, he mentally checked out

Wade was doing everything bc Bron literally wouldn't step up

We all know Bron's legacy is much diff if Wade wins FMVP in 2011...Wade has the biggest gripe bc a title for him + FMVP puts him as a top 25 player all time

That loss helped Bron's legacy more than it hurt...ppl can say what they want to convince themselves he didn't quit, but he did

Yup. And when wade checked him in game 3 it was really over. Dude was pouty for the rest of the series and had zero urgency. You woulda thought it was summer league. This moment mighta strained their friendship altogether.

[seemorecizzy]

You do realize people thought Bron would NEVER recover from the Mavs collapse right? So he sabotaged a finals that made him have an even worse summer for what?


Breh Wade eventually physically was gonna fall apart.

In fact it can be argued the first sign was the Bulls series in the ECF. Wade averaged just 18 that series and it was Bron doing the heavy lifting. Bron had no answers for the zone, lost faith in his jumper, couldnt get to the ft line and deferred to Wade who had the answers in that matchup vs the Mavs.

If people want to argue that it took LeBron FAILING HARD in order for him to get over the hump/improve aspects of his game I can at least understand that perspective. However, sacrificing a title in fear of Wade getting an MVP is silly talk.

if wade won a finals mvp, lebron would be forever looked at as a sidekick. i dont no if he did it intentionally, but im just saying ive never see Bron play like that ever lol so something was up and it wasnt a zone

I have praised lebron in the past but 2011 remains the one blemish on his record its nearly as bad as kobe quitting on his team against the suns and refusing to shoot the ball and blowing a 3-1 lead against the inferior suns team or in the 2004 finals or in game 6 of 2008 finals where the lakers got blown out by 39 points, he shot 7/22 in an elimination game with 4 turnovers, he shot 9/26 in game 1 as well he was awful in that 2008 series and jordan have lost several times in the playoffs. great players have blemishes some way more than others as well
