Kobe fans do anything to discredit LeBron.

Quit trolling my thread

[oh the horror]

Kobe fans do anything to discredit LeBron.

Except for the fact that everyone else in the thread also agreed with him.

[StateOfMind12]

I'll go with 1992 Michael Jordan

I would go with 91 Jordan before 92 Jordan.

Jordan - '92 Playoffs
Finals: 36/5/7 53%
Conf Finals: 31/7/6 44%
Conf Semis: 31/6/4 47%
Conf 1sr Rd: 45/10/7 61%

No wonder why the Heat retired his jersey, look at what he did to them in the 1st round series
I think '92 run was better, he also defended his title which is the toughest thing to do in sports.

1992 Michael Jordan .499 34.5 6.2 5.8 0.7
1991 Michael Jordan .524 31.1 6.4 8.4 1.4

1991 Jordan, more efficient, better defense, better playmaking, better rebounding.















Next.

I just checked his turnovers. Almost 4 a game in '92. less than 2 TO in '91.

I change my mind, '91 run was better.

curious. how would you stack up OKC vs the Finals teams of the last 5 or 10 years?

The last five years? Sweep. Perk to shut down Bynum, Iblocka to man Gasol, Thabo on Kobe, Westbrook DESTROYS FISHER, and Durant destroys Ariza, and MWP.

The only team that would give them troube would be Boston. In the last ten years, only lose to the Lakers, and Spurs in '03 (Duncan was just on some next level shit).

Edit: THE SHAQ LAKERS. Nobody could stop that foo.

[PistolPete44]

Chauncy Billups... pathetic

[TheCorporation]

LeBron James

Only team to be down in 3 series and still it all. Very impressive run

[PJR]

1st three peat Jordan is the most doiminant player I have ever seen. Peak Shaq a close second.

[Odinn]

1980 Kareem
1986 Bird
1991 Jordan
1992 Jordan
1993 Jordan
1994 Hakeem
1995 Hakeem (imo, 1995 Hakeem was better than 1994 Hakeem tho)
2000 Shaq
2001 Shaq
2003 Duncan

You can't go wrong with any of them.

PS: Yeah, I forgot that Kareem wasn't the FMVP in 1980.

[ShaqAttack3234]

I'd probably rank them like this.

1.1992 Michael Jordan
2.1995 Hakeem Olajuwon
3.1991 Michael Jordan
4.2000 Shaquille O'Neal
5.2001 Shaquille O'Neal
6.1993 Michael Jordan
7.1994 Hakeem Olajuwon
8.1986 Larry Bird
9.2003 Tim Duncan
10.2012 Lebron James

It's too bad Kareem was robbed of the 1980 finals MVP, otherwise, he'd make the list.

Honorable mention for '09 Kobe, he was in consideration, as well as '87 Magic, '02 Shaq, '84 Bird and '83 Moses, '71 Kareem and '77 Walton. Can't overlook '11 Dirk either.

Not entirely sure if Lebron should be over all of those guys, actually. Make it's too recent in my mind.

'92 Jordan makes it over '91 for me because of the superior competition. '91 Jordan was virtually flawless, though. MJ in his prime was just about as flawless of a player as you can be. '95 Hakeem is so high because of the incredible competition as well. Beating teams that won 60, 59, 62 and 57 games without HCA is unbelievable. Also outplayed the 2nd and 3rd best players in the league, who happened to play the same position as him.

[blacknapalm]

no mention of '75 rick barry in any lists?

[WillC]

2000 Shaquille O'Neal .566 30.7 15.4 3.1 2.4
1977 Bill Walton .507 18.2 15.2 5.5 3.4
1980 Magic Johnson .518 18.3 10.5 9.4 0.4
1991 Michael Jordan .524 31.1 6.4 8.4 1.4
1994 Hakeem Olajuwon .519 28.9 11.0 4.3 4.0

One of those five.
