Okay I think I know exactly what you are talking about. It's complete bs going around on social media.

Honestly nobody was genuinely purely better individually and objectively, than Lebron from like 07 to 22. Some guys had better seasons or bigger workloads at various times, but in a vacuum of pure individual value, absent external circumstances, once Lebron entered his prime nobody was actually better than him for like 15 years.
This isnt...
Luka needs to do these 3 things.
1. stop looking like he is 50 years old at age 25.
2. loose that tub of lard and get in shape with some muscles
3. or just get skinny by losing weight and look like stockton or bird or white or kukoc or Kerr.
effing guy looks like he is gonna pull a bronny and have an MI in the middle of the court any...
The only time I felt Curry was clearly the btw was during the 73 win season. Besides that you could certainly argue him for other years, but imo other guys prob had better arguments than he did. As for their other years, I’d disagree with
02: Shaq
04: KG
06: Wade
09 & 10: LeBron
Dunno about all dat.
All'z I know is 1991 Pippen could'nt even make it to 1991 All Star East Bench when Bulls won their first ring.
1991 Bulls won their ring with Jordan being the lone all-star starter from Bulls.
I still cannot believe 1997 NBA voted Pippen ahead of Dominique at Top 50 ATGs. what a robbery!.
Ryan Ruisillo agreed as well.
'00 and '01 Shaq
'02 to '07 Duncan
'08 to '10 Kobe
'11 Dirk or vacant
'12 to '18 Lebron
'19 Leonard
'20 vacant
'21 Giannis
Shaq, Lebron, and Kobe attacking the paint would be like prison rape vs this team. Overwhelming force. The white boys would have to shoot 80% from 3 to win.
looking ahead, Luka will blow his Knee out.
this is coming guys. All Boston needs to do is Blitz double Luka and press Kyrie.
Boston got the defensive bodies for exactly that.
Only problem boston has is Porzingis not showing up against lively and co in paint.
Boston should take this in 5.
To this day, I have this list as Top 3 PG GOATs and will stay that way.
#1 Magic
#2 Zeke
#3 Stockton
the amount of insult and disrespect Stockton get is just appalling.
That man was scary great his entire career. I mean defensively too. You never saw him coming offensively and defensively. that was the scary part.
Any team with Malone as MVP Runner-up is a juggernaut.
Any team with elite, injury-free, Stockton as a hard, cold, no drama, workman like playmaker who won zero awards and accolades for career and a chip to prove is a juggernaut.
Any team with HCA against 35 y Jordan, 34 y harper, 37 y useless Rodman and injured, 50% available 33 y Pippen is...
metrics-wise
#13 SRS
that's horrific, yet Ant was massively-upset and also wet the bed with his own poor performance... Ant wets bed vs #13 SRS, while MJ averaged 40 against the #1 SRS in 86' or 89'
lol. get your head checked at the nearest ER.
LBJ aint fitting any complicated triangle offense. LBJ ball is ball dominance and slows down offense instead of ball movement.
Reason LBJ always needed a SUPER team to win ring. That 3rd franchise in Bosh. or Love. forget that bubble ring.
Jordan was a special player. And his ability to play...
97' WCF
Stockton...... 21/11 and series walk-off in Barkley's face
Stockton carried the Jazz to the 97' Finals, while Pippen never put up double-double with points and assists or hit historic clutch shots.. And he never outplayed any top players like Barkley, Malone, Shaq, Bird, etc
Stockton also outplayed Pippen in the 97' Finals when...
Horace wasn't a scorer, while Ainge, Kersey, Duckworth, Porter, Buck Williams and Drexler were - that's 6 scoring options - they won't all average a lot because they have to share the load, but they all had seasons of high ppg at some point in their career and are considered scorers.
Or X-Man, Mark Jackson, Mason, Starks and Ewing - that's 5...
I don't know what you are talking about.
And each count has to be unanimous to convict. All 34 felonies had unanimous agreement. That rarely happens. Usually a few charges here and there get dropped because of no unanimous agreement.
This year I actually would take Kyrie over Durant. KD at least recently has been a defensive liability, where as Kyrie is busting his ass on defense. And Durant has never been a good passer either. I don't believe Dallas would be better with KD and PJ Washington on the bench than Kyrie.
The verdict was reached by a jury of everyday citizens, unanimously. The justice system or president didn't throw him in jail or assassinated him. The system worked exactly as the founding fathers have created it and envisioned justice. Not their fault that you can't see the forest for its trees.
And yes, Trump tried hard to go after Hillary....
This. Dirk's run that year was also historic as it was one of 4 or 5 runs ever where a single player basically carried his team to a chip...let alone against one of the most stacked teams ever assembled
Sure but he’s still a monster 3 level scorer who improved his playmaking this year. I can easily say he was the top guy over Durant honestly and I don’t imagine you take Kyrie over kd
He had Brunson and they lost in the western conference finals. And is about to win a championship with Kyrie. But yea. The difference is PJ, Lively, Gafford, DJJ vs Dwight Powell, Kleber, and Hardaway. Role players can be the distinction between winning or losing. Especially defensively. Brunson and Kyrie are both immense guard talents.
I don’t care about resumes or lvl of play or defense that’s all deflection. You said other teams had up to 8 scoring options when the bulls had 2. Horace grant scored 13ppg so that’s the cutoff I’ll use. He’s not a scoring option by your own criteria so you need to score more to be one. The 91 blazers had 4 guys over 13ppg, the 92 Knicks 3 and...
How you figure that? Lebron's range has been better than MJ's for a long time now. Cartwright and to some extent Longley could easily replicate what ilguaskas did as a big with Lebron in the pick and pop. Grant would be a much mich better version of Andy Varejeo or Thompson and would catch alleyoops several times a game. And also could play pick...
