The Greatest Of All Time

i want a front office that has a clear vision for success and the ability to execute it, not a front office that is trying to reverse engineer what they think will be successful

Ayton of Deandre really made Chet look like 2000 Shaq against us

@eccentricsole Such a low iq take

LeBron's longevity is incredible, but playing 20+ years just to match what MJ did in 15 actually hurts his GOAT case. Peak dominance > clocking into work for two decades.

@roadto80pct They dilute it with ethanol. Used to limit it to 3% now it’s allowed to be 10% in certain areas. May very well dilute it in others was too

i think they’re diluting the gas lowkey

@matickthegoat @ArnieSullivan @RODKING305 11 is more than 6

@NBAStatGuy_ @ArnieSullivan @RODKING305 I just stated a fact. And you're acting like that's not a valid argument

How can you have the greatest career when you lost 6 times in the Finals???

@matickthegoat @ArnieSullivan @RODKING305 Lmaoooo you couldn’t help yourself but try to diminish a man who achieved way more than jordan with a shorter career

@NBAStatGuy_ @ArnieSullivan @RODKING305 I mean it was completely different back then. Only 8 teams and no free agency. You can add context to Jordan's career and it doesn't make it less impressive

@BEN_JAM_IN23 @Benzene21 Daniel M has an untamed ego and cannot function efectively in society.

@Benzene21 @NBAStatGuy_ Obviously Lebron is not a Center. He is however the only player in NBA history who can lose his Center to injury and then go fill in for him half the season at an All-NBA lvl. Explain to me how Basketball Reference is wrong listing him Center but Daniel M is right?

@BEN_JAM_IN23 @NBAStatGuy_ The year “he played center” is funny Playing center when you are still playing your normal position means nothing. Listed position is just that, listed. Means nothing. Also, he started only 14 games when AD, deandre and Dwight didn’t start/play. lebron as “center” is a lie

@Ah_Sahm_ @steeder10 They said no to him plenty of times, and I'm putting blame on the positions of power that are responsible for making the decisions. The GM is literally employed to build a team and make deals that benefit the team, owner needs to sign off on trades. how can you blame anyone else?

@NBAStatGuy_ @steeder10 LeBron started his one and one deals, and every off-season became LeBron loudly threatening to leave for nothing if he didn't get the players he wanted. How are you going to blame the owners for that?

Lebron himself drove this trade. But yes, losing all of those connectors, particularly KCP and Caruso, and depth for another heliocentric, inefficient guard was one of the worst moves of the 2020s. This goes hand in hand with LeBron talking about how the competition is too hard for him. He still views ‘big 3’s’ as the recipe to championships. As we’ve seen with every ring since 2018, superstars raise the floor of connectors and connectors raise the ceiling of superstars.

@filthreeone @walt26317 @Vr0shhh unnecessary slur usage

@walt26317 @Vr0shhh @NBAStatGuy_ Another faggot

@Vr0shhh @walt26317 @NBAStatGuy_ And Shaq played his prime in an era with zero great big men “Context adjusted” = whatever gay bullshit you feel like saying because you hate Lebron No one’s feelings are hurt, you’re just a faggot

@MrMrsAHAMED1 @ScottKacsmar Lol, MJ was saved by the expansion era, man couldn’t do anything when the old stars we still hopping. Just had to wait for them to water it down, add the illegal defense, add the flagrant foul, shorten the three point line, change the rules to help him… but here u are lying stil

@ScottKacsmar “Full of shit” isn’t a rebuttal. 80s/90s NBA had hand-checking, physical defenses, less offensive freedom. And 7 years to reach a Finals still shows how hard it was to break through that era’s structure, not the opposite.

And when Kurt Warner started his 1st Super Bowl, he had no TD passes in the NFL going into the 1999 season. So what? We're supposed to ignore how Pippen played in 91 because of the past? Only postseason ever where a player averaged 20/8/5 with 2.5 steals per game.

@idcstfumaynee Lakers

What team yall think Bron playing for next year?

@wstrojan @JoshEberley Thats where Im at, 98% chance he’s not tryinng to wake up to minus 10 degree mornings at this stage

@JoshEberley Just don’t see LeBron wanting to live in Ohio next winter. They also have no money so what’s the trade?

….Prepare. 1) LeBron returns to Cleveland. 2) Cleveland and Dallas agree on a Kyrie/Mitchell centred swap.

LeBron the GOAT? yep. Cleveland still LeBron’s city? yep. Cleveland is Donovan Mitchell’s city? nope. Jaylon Tyson wrote checks that he couldn’t cash? yep. Cavaliers won anything since LeBron departed? nope.

This is just insane to look at man

@ljbabygoat8 @ScottKacsmar MJ was on the cap sheet… just getting paid not to play while ur team is struggling… sounds pretty lame to me

@ScottKacsmar HAHAHAHAH AGAIN YOU MISS THE 34-31 WITH SCOTTIE CRYING FOR MJ TO COME BACK

Follow the TL • In 5 years, Jordan has 3 losing years + one 50-win season • Phil takes over in 89-90, they win 55 • Then 61 wins and a three-peat • Jordan retires, Phil still wins 55 with Pippen as Alpha • Jordan returns, soon another three-peat • Phil & Co. leave, Bulls go 13-37 • Phil joins Lakers where Shaq couldn't get over the hump in the 90s • Lakers immediately three-peat before things sour • Jordan plays 2 years for Wizards and can't make the playoffs • Phil and Shaq leave, Kobe has losing record and misses playoffs • Phil returns, Kobe returns to POs • Add Gasol and they go to 3 straight Finals + repeat • Phil leaves after 2011 • Kobe wins one more PO series before injuries • Lakers miss playoffs for 5 years before LeBron era Sure looks like you could do a flow chart of whether or not these teams were real title contenders based on the presence or absence of Phil Jackson.

@CoachW519 @ScottKacsmar Did you forget to mention who was the highest paid player on that 94 cap sheet?

@ScottKacsmar Also, AS ALWAYS, we neglect to mention the additions made to the 94 team. They were important

@CoachW519 @ScottKacsmar Ok now address his context because it looks a lot more convincing than yours

@ScottKacsmar Id love this if u didn't intentionally leave important stuff out. Like for starters Jordan missed 64 games his 2nd year with a broken foot. Also while not a 50 win season, they did win 47 in 89 and make the ECF year before Phil got there.

@uscfan981 Give the evidence please… because I know if Bron choked a 3-1 playoff series lead to a team that never won anything you’d be using that against him

Kobe was more clutch than LeBron, that’s the difference.

@77HDMI @LukaUpdates Literally said that out loud lmaoo

@LukaUpdates Did I just hear Devin booker and Maxy 😭💀
