[Mr Feeny]

lebron scored 27.2pts and he was only 20..

He actually only averaged 17ppg against Barea. And they lost when they were overwhelming favourites.

MIAMI -- It's one of the most memorable images of the 2011 NBA Finals.

LeBron James, all 6-foot-8 and 270 pounds of him, couldn't take advantage of J.J. Barea in the post. James tried backing down Barea, who weighed about 100 pounds less than James soaking wet. But Barea fell upon contact and got the charge call after some, let's just say, artful exaggeration.

And James shied away from doing that again for the rest of the Finals, offering his detractors a convenient illustration of James' perceived lack of so-called killer instinct and appreciation for the post. The Heat lost that series and Barea was heralded as some sort of James kryptonite, if only for a few possessions, primarily because the diminutive former Mavericks guard was a very convincing actor. By most accounts, Barea flopped and got away with it.

And now the league plans to end all that.

NBA spokesman Tim Frank recently said the league is finalizing procedures to deal with flopping, the art of falling down when little or no contact was made in an effort to trick referees into calling a foul. Commissioner David Stern has made it clear that he believes flopping has poisoned the integrity of the game enough to implement a rule that would review potential flopping violations and fine players should they be found guilty of overtly trying to trick the referees.

End of tha damn thread

OP is definitely retarded if he think what he is saying is true. Lord help us!

lebron scored 27.2pts and he was only 20..

And Magic was crushing the Finals at 20..


Stats at 22-23 years old vs championship team and #1 defense:

Jordan vs 86' Celtics - 44 on 50%
Lebron vs 07' Spurs - 22 on 36%

[3ball]

The Bulls rank higher on the list than most of lebron's opponents, so we know mj would have a better Finals record against the Warriors/Spurs than Lebron did

Facing great teams doesn't prevent you from having great teams yourself that compete evenly and effectively.. But we know lebron didn't compete effectively because he's 2-5 vs Warriors/Spurs including 2 sweeps and 2 record defeats.

Honestly, its hard for any all-time great to do WORSE than lebron did against the spurs/warriors... ... .. ... He's nowhere near goat and you're all being bambozled.. okey-doked... ..

MJ played 21gms in the 86 season.

LeBron with 98gms in 2007.

Wait so Jordan only faced a top 50 team (the 44th mind you) in the Finals ONCE? And LeBron faced 5 of the top 25?

Can't lie, that's pretty f*cking damning for the supposed goat.
