    Default Why couldn't Lebron win 70 games and have several years as the dominant favorite?

    Curry/Klay won 70 and had a dominant favorite for several years

    why not Lebron/Wade or Lebron/Kyrie???

    Why don't you ask that of Kareem/Magic, Shaq/Kobe, Bird/McHale etc.

    Why pee in a urinal when you can pee in someone else's cereal? This it the level LeGalactus is operating on. You can't achieve it. You can only hope to comprehend it. I have dedicated my life to just such a feat.

    Because they were the dominant favorite of their era for several years

    Lebron never was and ceded 70 wins to another team

    Only in today's mickey mouse league does a player get props for mostly losing... i.e. beating warriors 1 in 4 times, or the spurs 1 in 3, including 3 record blowout defeats and 2 sweeps

    So lebron gets destroyed, except a couple one-off flukes, which happen to everyone.. ur praising lebron for losing

    any great player will beat a team 1 in 4 times.. it's not impressive and instead the biggest knock on his resume.. again, you don't get props for losing

    The bar is set VERY low for LeBron. 3/9 is now what it takes to be considered a Top 10 all time player.

    Exactly

    bigkingsfan says lebron would prefer beating them, but his 1-4 and 1-3 records vs warriors/spurs demonstrates he precisely NOT beating them..

    and infact is losing by record amount to each and getting swept

    MJ couldn't win a single game against the Celtics in six tries.

    Why would he need to make less Finals?

    just win the damn championship!!!

    Where did "less Finals" come from??.. Is this some Jedi mind trick where you say the opposite of reality and people go for it?.. .. seems like it

    Again, just win the championship..... which would be a lot easier if he achieved consistently dominant favorites like curry and MJ did. Or Duncan, Kobe and others
