Lol you know better than that. He will claim victory no matter the outcome. Whatever he says is a very transparent effort to keep you engaged. Anyone that dedicated to keeping this site active has a stake in it. Think about all the about-faces he's done. Remember when Steph Curry was the most overrated player ever in June 2021, then the new...

Catch & shoot 3s this year RS: Doncic 1.9 3PA 37.8%3PT Tatum 2.2 3PA 43.0%3PT PO: Doncic 1.9 3PA 33.3%3PT Tatum 2.1 3PA 27.6%3PT Mavs just have better options where Luka is the one setting up guys for 3s. Kyrie shot 42% on 3.2 3PA on catch & shoot 3s in the RS and is shooting 43.9% on 2.4 attempts in the POs. Luka started...

What you're saying is that no matter who as long as there's some jump shooting diversity people will win. That actually means that Jordan isn't unique. Luka coming up short on the other hand with the same teammate Lebron had means Lebron is unique. You actually set up two things here: If Tatum wins this would boost Lebron. Not Jordan. It...

He's stuck. He's branded Tatum as an elite jumpshooter, so he needs Boston to win because Luka is the Lebron stand-in and he can then say 'elite jumpshooters beat ball dominators'. But if Dallas wins, it will be because Kyrie is so good that he was able to overcome 'Lebron-Luka ball' and that for Lebron to win, he needs an elite multiple-chip...

LeBron and Jokic are not alike. LeBron doesn't really want the responsibility but wants the spotlight. He was the self-proclaimed Choesen1 very early in life and it got worse. It doesn't make him a bad player. But not really Jokic-like either. Luka and Jordan have more in common, but MJ had a lot more seriousness. Luka wants to win and have fun....

Considering the answers I got . totally agree

The ramp up in 3ball threads this time of year, like clockwork.OPs a mod alt...

Is that the way you really look at basketball? How do you get enjoyment from that?

I just need Lebron's sidekicks to do better than Pippen, which means making the Finals... Anything better than making the Finals such as Wade winning FMVP is bonus... So if Kyrie won FMVP, that would mean that Lebron needs FMVP sidekicks to win.. yikes.. you better hope kyrie doesn't win FMVP like Wade did.. you're already lucky that they didn't...

KAT built the Wolves, which includes being their best player and only All-NBA player until 2023 Despite this stacked team, Ant was just G-swept as a massive favorite and played poorly, while MJ nearly beat the champs with nothing and played well . 4th healthy season vs Finals team:

But you always say winning the ring is most important.you can't just backtrack now ?

Jordan didn't advance past the first round until pippen came in '87. Meanwhile, ant's already led a team to 50+ wins and made the conference finals in just his fourth season in the league. Go figure.

Anyone else happy for PJ Washington who got airlifted out of charlotte to be on a contending team?

My hope is this motivates the public to go out and vote and keep him from getting elected. So Trump can die in prison sadly not for the crimes he actually committed but for all the other crimes he did in his life. The plutocrat class in this country have been dragging their feet on felons in poltics for years it's time for a reckoning.

no, but making the Finals it's better than pippen did without jordan Accordingly, for Lebron to win as 1st option, he needed a sidekick that could make the Finals without him and this sidekick actually had to be a franchise player from an in-conference opponent, aka diluting the conference.

Right. So making the finals is more important then winning is what your saying?

Regarding individual success - by Jordan's 5th healthy season (1990), he had MVP, DPOY, 4 scoring titles and a 3000-point season (only MJ and Wilt did that).. he also dropped the playoff record against the #1 SRS and #1 defense in the league so no Regarding team success - by Jordan's 4th or 5th healthy season, he was nearly beating the...

Tears are streaming down your face right now

I saw Luka barking to it seemed like snoop.wonder what was Said lol Or it might have just been tv graphics

That thread said I needed Kyrie to make the Finals So then I can say that for Lebron to win as 1st option, he needed a sidekick that could make the Finals without him and this sidekick actually had to be a franchise player from an in-conference opponent, aka diluting the conference.

. 4th healthy season vs Finals team: 07' Lebron vs Spurs.......... 22 on 36%.... swept 24 Antman vs Mavs.......... 25 on 43%.... G-swept 89' Jordan vs DET............. 30 on 46%.... would've gone 7 if Pip didn't miss game 6

:lol /thread

^^Except ant is a whole lot better than jordan if we were to base their careers on their respective first five years in the league. So until then, shut your trap. :whatever:

You can't compare the winning of a 3rd or 4th year team to a 1st year team Ant and Lebron had 3 years to develop favored high seeds before entering their first playoffs, so of course their 3rd and 4th year high seeds won more than Jordan's 1st year team and 8 seed. When Jordan had 4 healthy seasons (89'), he averaged 30 against the champs...

So why did you make a thread saying you need Kyrie to win then?

Pippen scored less than 18 in half the playoff games for 92', 93', and 97' too, with horrible efficiency. He actually shot 0% on threes and 59% from the line in the 93' Finals (46.9 TS), so this performance coupled with his 15 on 33% against Dominique in the 1st Round yielded 50 TS overall for the 93' Playoffs and worst-ever PER, BPM, WS/48...

Probation? Michael Cohen had no criminal history and he got three years for carrying this out for Trump. There is no way an underling gets more jailtime than the mob boss who gave him the order. Where do you get off thinking Trump is so popular? Maybe with the MAGA cultists but he is not gonna win an election with them alone. The women in the...

MJ's first playoff series win had a huge surprise factor because teams were used to 1-9.
