Did Harden save his legacy by losing sooner instead of Finals loss?

[Hey Yo]

4 in 19 or 6 in 15…which is greater?

19 straight seasons >>>> 15 seasons in a 19yr span (non injury, chose to quit)

UTTER. DESPERATION.

No, OP, sucking in the post season did not improve Harden's legacy.

Just like not even making the postseason with a super team did not improve your hero Bronie's post season.

I know these complex thoughts might blow your mind....

you just called the 2022 lakers a superteam

injured and non-playing AD plus malik monk and austin reaves a superteam

If y'all thought the '04 or '13 Lakers were a superteam, than the '22 team is one as well.

13 lakers were trash. 04 lakers choked but I wouldnt call them a superteam. shaq and kobe is enough to be a superteam so I guess it counts. every team lebron every played on was a superteam, because he's on the team.


how did the malik monk austin reaves westbrook superteam do without leGOAT? if I remember correctly every single win was because of lebron. and all of those close losses the only player hooping was lebron while the rest of the team was letting scrubs like the jalen green rockets shit on them.

Lebron lost 3 Finals with the preseason favorite, and 3 more times he was the Finals underdog with the preseason favorite.

Only a bad brand of ball causes favored talent to underachieve, so Lebron clearly has the worst brand ever.

Ultimately, every team that didn't win the title wouldn't make the Finals in the other conference - Finals appearances are essentially conference-dependant, so only winning the Finals matters

dude you're not allowed to have an opinion any more. you've been exposed so many times that it's a joke.

all of your arguments are based on false assumptions that elevate or diminish players based on the point that you're trying to make. what happened to all of the paragraphs that you made me read explaining how KG is definitively a better player than lebron?


explain to me again how KG is hands down a better player than lebron.

even this post right here assumes that lebron underachieved because he lost in the finals to a better team. how did he underachieve by losing to the 2014 spurs and 2015 and 2017, 2018 warriors when he was the best player in every single series?


mike never ran into a single team as good as any of those teams. please explain to me again how malone and stockton are equivalent to klay curry dray and kd.


the only thing that a player can do is dominate his era and lebron was hands down the best in the league from 2009-2018 aka a FULL decade.

buh buh 2014 lebron had dwade meanwhile wade played the series on one knee

Can't save a legacy if you never had one to begin with.

Unless you're talking about regular season legacy

They spent years saying retard shit about losing in the finals being a negative.

Using that retard logic, if someone loses before making the finals, it cannot be a negative either.


If Jordan went to the finals every single year of his career 13 times, lost 7, but won 6, that is a positive no? An even more legendary career.

Jordan winning 6 is better than Jordan winning 4. I can remember when I was about four years old being able to comprehend that 6 > 4. Which puts you Bronies on about a three-year-old's level intellectually.

4 in 19 or 6 in 15…which is greater?

This point should be obvious....but the Bronies struggle with difficult things like math and logic.

Stains don't get it. Its not the fact that Lebron lost in the finals that weakens his legacy. Its the fact that it happened to him so many times, that its literally the main association with him - a guy that gets to the finals and loses. That is a sign that he can't finish the job, that he made it there through easy conference, whatever. Tendency is clear: he always gets close, but doesn't complete the final step. Kobe lost twice in the finals as well but that doesn't hurt his legacy because he won five times. If you lose in the finals but win more it doesn't matter. But Lebron lost more than he won. Losing finals is synonymous with Lebron. And from the phrase 'losing finals' the most striking part is 'LOSING'.

jordon extremist alts getting absolutely DESTROYED.
Their "logic" is the only one of its kind in all of sports. In what other universe is an olympian's resumé which consists 6 gold medals and 0 silver medals regarded higher than 4 gold medals and 6 silver medals?

We got their ass shook

19 vs 15 is irrelevant. Play more, we don't reward quitters.

If anything it's 4 vs 6.

4 elite FMVPs vs 6 cracker jack 90s rings

We win again.

[Full Court]

You Bronies are worse than morons.

Ask any Olympian if they they'd rather have 1 gold medal or 3 silver. You wouldn't find a single one who'd take the silver.

1 gold > 100 silver.

6 gold > 4 gold.

End of story. Bronie never came close to catching MJ. Truth hurts.
