    So simple math is your thing?

    Lebron - 3 rings

    All these players have MORE than 4 rings:

    Bill Russell - 11 rings (played 13 years)
    Michael Jordan - 6 rings
    Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - 6 rings

    George Mikan - 7 rings
    Bob Cousy - 6 rings
    Magic Johnson - 5 rings
    Kobe Bryant - 5 rings
    Tim Duncan - 5 rings
    Shaquille O'Neal - 4 rings

    Larry Bird - 3 rings

    *Lebron has LOST in 6 Finals but there have been other great players who have LOST more Finals than Lebron.

    Jerry West - lost 8 Finals
    Elgin Baylor - lost 7 Finals

    Plus Wilt Chamberlain, Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar lost 4 Finals.

    So mathboy, how is Lebron James the GOAT?

    So you can't be the greatest if you take your career into your own hands, which is what unrestricted free agency is designed to do? You can only be the greatest playing under the whim of decisions others make (coaches and management)? If you get drafted to a bad team just suck it up?

    We’ve already been through this in other threads and now you’re trying to deflect to another argument because you were flat out proven wrong on your contention that Lebron James doesn’t show up in big games. I never said he was the GOAT, I said he was in the conversation. There’s nothing logically debatable about that.

    Sorry for the thread derail.

    Is there an option to switch to actual homecourts for the playoffs if we get out of the covid woods?

    No. From the standings, Top 13 from the west. Top 9 from the east. All teams who still had a slight change at getting in the playoffs before it was shutdown
