    Look at this weak deflection.

    Durant quit when he was up 3-1 against golden state. Bron was down 3-1 and spanked that same team.
    Durant quit Golden state when Green called him a bitch.
    When Green called Bron a bitch, Bron made Green cry in the parking lot after game 7.

    I have lost count of the amount of times Durant has quit.

    Don't ever put his name and alpha in the same sentence again, that's disrespectful to real alphas like Bron.

    Thread about LeBron not making his teammates better

    Bron Stans - "bu but but Durant "

    Both Durant and LeBron are betas but it was LeBron who paved the way for Durant and others with the decision aka the most bitch made move in Sports history at that point

    Wrong.

    Bron has gotten his teammates all paid. How come their best paydays happened during Bron's tenure? All these players had their best career years next to Bron.


    Jr smith. Paid.
    TT. Paid.
    Kevin love. Paid.
    Kyrie. Paid.
    Mozgov. Paid.
    Delly. Paid
    Caruso. Paid.
    Bosh. Paid.
    Wade. Paid.
    Kuzma. Paid.
    KCP. Paid.



    Manny98, you turned from being right to 100% wrong all the time. You can't hang with me. Sit down kid. Go back to school.

    This criticism is so ignorant. Yes you can be the statistical best player on A shit team and never win anything let alone even make the playoffs. Last time I checked basketball is a team sport. ISO ball is not winning ball. Ask the Nets. Last I ckecked those guys you mentioned all have A legit ring now.

    LeBron haters are all low IQ.


    Nobody talks about a player's stats going down during Olympic play, it's all about team contributions + defence. The narrative changes for Bron teams because LEBRon is the GOAT and it bothers people.

    Stats again OP? If stats are all that matters then be careful because LeBron has godly stats compared to MJ, plus Pippen has godly stats compared to all other 90s #2 options.

    It's a win for us either way Thanks for playing, enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

    Love - worse
    Wade - worse
    Bosh - worse
    JR Smith - worse
    Mozgov - better
    Delly - Better
    Caruso - better
    Kuzma - worse
    Ingram - flourishing without LeBron
    Scroeder - worse

    Conclusion LeBron makes role players better and stars worse because they have to accommodate to his ball dominant play style

    I dont know that ball dominant play style is the best way to put it. Its his system. Lebron knows (as well as any other astute observer) that he has A much better basketball IQ than just about anyone else in the league. Lebron is an unusual player in that he brings A whole system with him. He isnt just the head of the beast he is the beast. I have criticized Bron ball myself due to its obvious weaknesses. However, if he has the correct pieces it works and he knows it. I think Rondo was Lebron's greatest asset A couple of years back because he had no issue confronting Lebron and taking things in A different direction when Bronball wasnt working. Now that Lebron is getting older, this "ball dominant style" isnt as effective as it once was because he gets mentally and physically tired much easier. Which is why, ideally, at this stage you want to surround Lebron with other High IQ players that Lebron trusts. Lebron knew that he could Trust Rondo's decision making. I would argue that that is far more important in Lebrons mind than any athleticism that someone would bring. When Rondo was running his squad Bron could sit out and get as much rest as needed and things would be in good hands. The above point is why I think Westbrook is A nightmare situation for Lebron. Low IQ player who makes up for it with unusual athleticism, which is now somewhat in decline. This is not very helpful.
