- In 2016, the narrative was the Warriors were super fortunate that LeBron lost Kyrie and Love considering LeBron got 2 games pretty much on his own. That narrative is probably true.

- The following year, GSW wins the most games, but Cleveland was the better and healthier team when it mattered. LeBron shows that with Kyrie and Love not only did he get it done, but that there is credence to the narrative from last year.

- So with one "lucky" ring where everyone they faced was injured and one where they lost in epic fashion, they go and get the Easy Money Sniper himself, KD, and bust Cleveland's ass to a parade of boos, jeers and complaints about how it's unfair, it doesn't count, etc etc.

It's weird. If LeBron would have won in 2016 if he had a healthy squad and he proven that narrative right in 2017, then why are y'all so mad at them for stacking the deck higher? Wouldn't that mean they aren't good enough and getting someone on LeBron's level (no offense to the great Stephen Curry) is the logical thing to do? nikkas talking about "they barely lost", but they lost. nikkas talking about "if Draymond didn't get suspended" but they lost three whole games with Draymond on the court...

It's inconsistencies like that which are most confusing. A lot of LeBron fans seems inconsistent in their convictions and stances on lots of things.

- When he beats up on weak teams in a weak conference with no super stars and on a team perfect for him to stuff his stats, he's praised and compared to Jordan. When he's about to go against a great team, suddenly the narrative switched to "What do you want him to do? What can he do?:sadbron:"

- They say he can win with anyone and he makes everybody around him better, but when his teammates suck it's "he can't win with these guys"

- When he stacks the deck as high as he possibly can not once, but TWICE, it's fine, but when his contemporary does it it's cheating, the ring has an asterisk on it, etc. It's almost as if only LeBron James is allowed to put himself in the absolute best situation possible to win at all times :lupe:

- When other superstars play zero defense, costing their team countless points and wins, they make fun of it. When LeBron does the same, which is a huge reason they struggled in the regular season at times, it's "HE HAS TO DO SO MUCH...HE TIRED."

- that criticize Jordan for playing in a weaker era while ignoring the fact LeBron has had the luxury of playing in a perpetually putrid eastern conference his entire career.

LeBron fans are a weird bunch.

Petty Vandross.. fukk Yall
Kerr better go deep with the rotation and add McGee on the starting lineup. The Warriors need interior defense badly. Draymond defense couldn't prevent the constant penetration in the lane by Houston. Lebron is a beast in the paint. The Warriors just need to keep their line up big to slow down Lebron until Iggy get back.
I would be shocked if he gave Javale burn but he won’t :snoop:
TT playing like the 2015 version..
Looney ain’t built for that..
