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'.

So a 1st round loss would have saved his legacy?

Fu**ing idiot alert

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

Um. No one said Finals loss is better than Finals win. Full Tard.

But we're saying 2nd place is better than 3rd, which is better than 4th, which is better than 8th, which is better than...

Lebron faced a team lead by Rodney Stuckey in the first round when he had Dwade and Chris Bosh.

He has peak Anthony Davis, the best player on the 2020 squad and the reason the Lakers did anything as the 2019 Lakers missed the playoffs and 2021 Lakers lost in round 1 when AD wasn't around. He has Prime Melo who won a scoring title and all time leader in scoring for the Olympics. He has Dwight Howard a 3x DPOY and a guy who beat Lebron without HCA. He has Westbrook who is the modern day Oscar Robertson and also won league mvp along with average a Triple Double 4 years in a row. He also has Rondo who is a hall of famer.

Why didn't he play it against Dwight Howard in 2009 when Dwight was dominating http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/sho...th-HCA/page10? Or against Duncan or KG or Dirk? Why did he run away from KD a guy at his position?

Both 0-2 with HCA against 50+ win teams until they joined forces with someone who won as the man. Also won bronze medals.

Tmac lost to Utah in 2007 while Lebron was losing to a career loser in Dwight Howard and also Carlos Arroyo in the Olympics with peak Tim Duncan on his squad despite playing more minutes than Hakeem even played on the 1996 Olympic team.

wow a 37 year old player struggled when his team didn't give him any support. what a surprise.

24 year old lebron would've carried the lakers to the number seed in the west balling out every single night

You know the Bronies are in full desperation mode when they have to resort to finals losses to try to prop up their hero's tanking legacy.

Tatum actively trying to ruin his legacy.
He could've had it all by losing the game tonight and kept his legacy intact, but instead he still has the possibility of losing in the finals.

If Tatum lost this game and got bounced, he would have avoided a potential loss in the finals which according to retards would be a negative to his legacy!

**Derka** · 05-13-2022, 10:27 PM

Harden’s legacy is his disgusting homeless man’s beard, flopping on every contested 3, and losing in the playoffs.

Tatum would have lost with HCA. Lebron lost with HCA 3x, Kobe 2x, MJ never.

Bronie logic: If you're the runner up a bunch of times, it's better than winning a championship a few times....because that's what the maths tell me.

So true. Imagine having to praise loser awards with a straight face because your favorite player has so many of them
