He's 25, hasn't reached his prime yet. He's gotten better every season and had one hell of a year, why **** on him? Lebron is an All-time great.
Asinine as people bringing up a 4 yr old thread when the facts have clearly changed. Curry is the Reg Season MVP and just leave it at that. Even Jordan, Magic, Bird, Chamberlain, and Russell didn't get MVP every single year despite being the best in sequences.. Go smack yourself over a brick kiddies and grow some hair on your nuts to have better logic.
Omg just shut up. Just shut it. Type of fans like you are the ones that make people hate Lebron. His a great player, top 5 IMO. I have not seen a dominant player like him since Shaq. But to say his GOAT when Jordan has a higher PER even if you include his Wizards year...more dominant in the regular season + post season and more records and accolades than Lebron/Kobe combined and more rings and finals MVP....you are just being a Lebron nut rider You keep bringing up that his been to the finals with less people, but you leave out that his been playing in a historically weak eastern conference and that he teamed up with Wade/Bosh in Miami...then played like the 3rd star in the 2011 finals series...then left Miami for Cavs to team up with Kyrie and Love....

The Warriors are fine, there is just one simple adjustment Steve Kerr needs to make win Games 4, 5, and 6: Spoiler PLAY HARDER
He can't **** on him without ****ting on Steph Curry or Russell Westbrook or virtually all the other elite players because they didn't defend well when they had a huge offensive load (hell Curry has never even been average). Also FWIW James did not especially play good defense in game 1 and 2.... But no one could expect it with him literally doing everything else.
But LeBron was 3 years younger and had 2 superstars alongside him. I'm rooting for the Cavs, but it's still almost unthinkable that they win this series. It would be one of the biggest upsets in any sport I've ever seen.
We don't know how good or bad a coach he is. He inherited a club that had been together gelling well for a few years and has the best assistant coaching staff in the NBA. He was bizarre when he ran the Suns and was a commentator. Let's just see how he handles this adversity.
warriors need to be worried that they have played at the cavs pace for the first 3 games. they're not getting those fast break looks and having that free flowing run and gun style that they're accustomed to.
BeverLOLey Talking about a role player. Dwight and I are cornerstones, the rest are role players, guys who just fill out the roster. Who's out there for Cleveland? LeBron and a bunch of nobodies, still playing great defense. Same thing you said about Golden State, apply that to Beverley. All bark, little to no bite. Nah. Sure, he got Bogut and Green but they aren't switching or hiding him on the weakest defender like James. Curry may not be great but he's not JF bad either.
Right. That loss is inexcusable, but let's not pretend the 2014 loss is on Lebron. Bosh and Wade forgot they were "all-stars" during that series.
Kerr needs to replace Harrison with Iguodala in the starting lineup. He also needs to replace Bogut with Ezeli. If he does those 2...they win the series.
It's weird to me that so many people seem to put so much stock in these post game interviews. I could not care less what they say or how they say it. Everyone just tries to be as vague and PC as possible to fulfill their media obligations without giving away critical info. But, I am clearly in the minority on this. Seems the average CFer thinks these forced post game interviews are actually an insight into a team's central strategy.
Lol, you need to chill out. The East being weak isn't LeBron's fault. Also, the East was a lot better this year, than in years past. Leaving Miami is a bad thing, now? He left an established group of veterans and a team in which he had tremendous chemistry to go play with a bunch of young guys who have never ever had Playoff experience, much less Finals experience. On top of all of that, Love and Irving, 2 of the 3 best players on the team, aren't even able to play when it truly counts.
One problem is Cleveland is such a good offensive rebounding team they have to keep everyone back to grab rebounds. I think the Warriors tried to run for a few minutes in the first game and shut that down pretty quickly.
Uhh yeah they do. Curry guards the weakest offensive player whenever possible. He also has an excellent defender next to him in KT. You want to rip Harden for being inconsistent on defense.... Feel free, just keep in mind that Curry is at best just as bad, if not worse.... Harden atleast can defend when he tries to, Curry is just poor because of his size and strength. LeBron is just in a different category like Jordan and Hakeem.... There are very few players that are even average defensively and carry a huge offensive load.
