    He couldn't hand over the playmaking duties to others nor was he able to let others make decisions, because they're low IQ players. Shump and JR were terrible and can't create for others. Delly had a hard time bringing the ball up court. Actually, Shump is a below average playmaker, but the other two are worse than garbage.

    The game in which Mozgov put up 28 points, the Cavs lost by 21 points. LeBron struggled shooting the ball, but he did have 20/12/8. 12 rebounds and 8 assists (oh wait, rebounds and assists only matter when it's Bird). Delly went 3-14, JR 2-12, Shump 2-9, JJ 0-3, etc.. A combined 18% FG%. Literally no one could hit a shot. To top it off, the Warriors went small and Moz couldn't guard anyone on the court. Bogut was benched and Green was playing at the C.

    You're blaming LeBron for Moz not getting more involved in game 5 after the 28 point game, when in fact, the COACH played him 9 minutes. He played over 30 minutes in game 6 and LeBron got him involved. Dude put up 17/12/4.

    For the series, the 3 guys who played the 3rd, 4th, and 5th highest minutes managed to score a combined 25.5 points on sub 40% TS. 29% FG% and 28% 3pt%.

    Yep. Role-players and scrubs. Those fools cost West a ring. Dude would probably be in the top 10 if it wasn't for Wilt's choking. Just like how JR, Shump, and Delly not being able to shoot for shit cost the Cav's a ring. A combined 28% FG and 29% from the 3? :puke:

But it's remarkable that Lebron led both teams in every major category while the league MVP couldnt manage to pull a single vote for FMVP.

    There is a reason my very precisely calculated Objective GOAT Rank analytics has 1. Lebron 2. Mikan 3. Kareem, and that was on full display in the finals, just like Lebron's magic johnson.
    Why is dudes bragging on another guys package 😑😑😑

    GOAT-level impact series. Turned a WOAT(for finals standards) level offense into an almost average one against the best defense in over a decade.


    While putting them in position to stop the leagues most explosive offensive through taking nearly their entire transition game away.

In the end, it's exactly as Gileraracer said:
    yay, here is one of the newer claims about LeBron.. should I wait for Indian guy to burry shit like this per usual? aj already trashed you, though.

    Amazing what Lebron fans will convince themselves of lol.

    I do think Lebron had a great series - efficiency aside, it takes a ton of energy to be the do-it-all monster he was that series. But it's not even in my top 10 Finals series. That doesn't make it bad by any stretch, though.

    GS faced good offenses outside of Cleveland and posted the best DRTG since the '04 pistons...

    As a huge Lebron stan I've gotta admit that we of theLebron Family are taking L's left and right. This will keep happening until next playoffs. We have things to prove.
