Didn't have a cakewalk to the Finals like LeROID..

**SouBeachTalents** · 05-21-2019, 10:34 PM

So literally every single playoff loss was a choke huh

**talkingconch** · 05-21-2019, 10:34 PM

Did you begin watching the NBA in 2012?

The only guys skilled enough with enough chemistry to use pnr as their primary offense WITHOUT using today's kickout schemes for threes that make the play worthwhile

They had goat skill and chemistry, so they could succeed with the pnr without threes

stockton's playoff stats are lowkey just bad. Malone gets way too much of the blame for underachieving. Tbf, stockton did play better in 97 which was a Finals run.

Still doesnt take away from lebron being 3-6 in the finals and not being able to make the playoffs in the west.

possibly worse

In all seriousness, with Lebron out the East now

If Lowry and Derozan stayed together for 18 seasons their track record would probably look identical, possibly better. Would have already made a couple finals if not for Lebron
