YOU LITERALLY SAID NOTHING....YOUR MAIN RETORT WAS TRYING TO ATTACK MY “BACKGROUND IN JOURNALISM” AND THE GRAMMARATICAL ERRORS? FOREAL?? LMFAO .. LIKE SWAG SAID, U BRON GROUPIES HAVE NO COUNTERS TO THE POINTS MADE

U DIDNT EVEN ATTEMPT TO SHOOT DOWN ONE THING IN THE ENTIRE ARTICLE

LEBRON GOAT TALKS ARE DEFINITELY A MAIN TALKING POINT IN BASKETBALL DISCUSSION NOWADAYS - WHETHER ITS THAT “HE IS GOAT” OR “ON HIS WAY TO GOAT” - IT WAS NOTHING LIKE THIS FOR KOBE, DUNO WTF UR RAMBLING ON ABOUT.

THEN AGAIN, U SAID U DONT WATCH SPORTS TALK SHOWS, SO HOW THE FUCC WOULD U EVEN KNOW?

ITS COOL TO SEE U POST JUST FOR THE SAKE OF POSTING THO. GOOD EFFORT, CHAMP.
Honestly, if you won't acknowledge that the media was trying to toss Kobe in with Jordan since day 1, there is no point in discussing this with you any further.

I already identified the crux of your argument as a strawman, how much more criticism do you need? LeBron's status as an all time great is not in question, you even admit his place among the ATGs in your sloppily written article.

When you are trying to make a claim that the media is attempting to convince people LeBron>Jordan, use examples. When you are trying to make a claim that the attempt has been successful, use evidence such as polls, etc. I don't think the media has made people like LeBron, I think there is actually much more evidence to prove the opposite.

From my own experience, the people who like sports talk (including those who spend more time watching first take than actual games) are the people who hate LeBron the most.

I didn't really want to tear up your essay grammatically because I welcome a conversational flow in modern journalism but there still has to be some boundaries.

As an opinion piece, it just sucks. A persuasive essay should move the undecided readers and make the opposing side question their own thought process. This is just fluff for people who already hate LeBron.

I would've read it if I didn't already know that you're a very biased Kobe groupie so I'm gonna have to pass on the article. You dedicate your whole Coli existence to hating on anything Bron does but I'm supposed to believe you wrote an objective non biased article about Lebron:mjlol:.

SO WE JUS GUNA IGNORE THE MAIN POINTS REGARDING LEBRONS ATROCIOUS DEFENSE, LEBRON BEING GIVEN AN INORDINATE AMOUNT OF CREDIT FOR BEATING MEDIOCRE TEAMS, THE INSANE LEVEL OF SPINS HIS SUPPORTERS GO TO IN ORDER TO EXCUSES HIS FAILURES ETC??

WE KNOW U DONT WATCH SPORT TALK SHOWS OR LISTEN TO SPORTS RADIO, SO HONESTLY, THE FACT THAT U THINK LEBRON N KOBE GOT THE SAME AMOUNT OF LOVE IS UNDERSTANDABLE.. BUT I CAN ALSO BET U DONT SOCIALIZE WITH BASKETBALL FANS OUTSIDE THIS FORUM BASED ON THE CLAIMS U MAKE.

YOURE SIMPLY OFF.

LeBron's defense has been pointed out quite a bit lately. The Cavs defense has been an issue all year long. Not sure what you have been watching.

LeBron wasn't praised simply for beating toronto and Indiana. He was praised for his individual performance in those wins. Do you think Kobe's 81 was celebrated because he beat Toronto? Or because he scored 81. Use your fukking head.

LeBron's failures aren't spun. If he fails, he gets skewered. If he plays well and his team loses, that's not a failure and it never has been. Historically, players have always been praised for balling out in a playoff loss.

And who are these outside people you talk basketball with? I don't believe that you hang with a bunch of Jews who think LeBron is the GOAT :dead:

I KICK IT WIT ALL RACES, WHY WOULD I ONLY HANG OUT WIT JEWS? THE FUCC??

LOOK BRUH, ITS OBVIOUS THAT YOURE OUT OF TUNE WITH WHATS GOIN ON IN THE SPORTS MEDIA, SO ILL LEAVE IT AT THAT.

LEBRONS INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCES WERE A RESULT OF BRON BALL, WHICH IS ALSO ADDRESSED IN THE ARTICLE.

WHEN HE LOSES, THE EXCUSES WILL HAIL FROM THE SKY. ITS APPARENT.

ITS OBVIOUS THAT U DONT EVEN CARE ABOUT THIS DEBATE - ITS A PERSONAL THING FOR U AND U WANT NOTHIN MORE THAN TO SAY U SHUT ME DOWN. NOT GUNNA HAPPEN FAM.

Kobe stans not understanding that them continually HAVING to attack LeBron's legacy makes Kobe seem inferior to Bron, is funny to me.

Y'all spam this section with threads about him more than Bron stans. Does that make sense to you?

Y'all lucky Wade's knees failed him when they did. Would have cemented himself as the 2nd greatest sg ever easily :wow:.

First of all, stop being a racist, Jews can be any race.

Since I don't watch the trashy talk shows that you indulge in all day, I should be more influenced by your article. It should be teaching me something.

If people in the outside world are commonly saying Bron>Jordan, that should be apparent. It sounds more like those shows are only introducing that point so they can tear it down and keep people like you entertained.

I was speaking more to him being a media darling. I remember the media crowning him as the GOAT from before he retired to play baseball.

But that's cause he was. He actually earned the right to be called the GOAT rather than LeBron whose been handed it despite never actually doing anything to justify it other than just being a great physical specimen.
