birdman:


google is your friend. his coach claimed he didnt "cut" him, he just put him on the jv team. That is like telling NBA starter to go to NBDL...its not a "cut", just a demotion na . Like your teacher telling you to repeat primary 6 while your mates are going to JSS1. Its not a "cut" o, its just that you are 2 years younger than everybody and it is rare for you to make JS1

Bottomline, it was a diss, and it fueled Jordan. Feel free to google the definitive forbes article on the issue. even in front of the coach, jordan repeated the slight.

Nah it's one of those old skool myth used to hype up and push the Jordan brand. Back in those days, most sophmores did not make the varsity team unless you had an advantage of some sort. Unfortunately a 5feet 11 Jordan at that time had no physical advantage.

I have read articles where Jordan's coach at that time denied it too. Ofcourse Jordan was always going to play up to the media. Any news that will sell more J's is most welcomed

The Curry's picture is G.O.A.T meaning Greatest Of All Time, a fantasy for Curry lovers.. But yes he's the greatest shooter of all time..
Lolawilliams calm down.. Make we talk true and be fair. Draymond has been top notch in defense "so far" this season.. As for Christmas day, it don't matter if you won by 40.. We swept you guys in the last regular season it's the playoffs that'll really matter. But if you lose on Christmas game we'll go back to our usual usual it's just a regular season gane

lolawilliams:


Let them niggas have the grammy we gat the street. I wouldnt mind whooping you by 20+ pts too on christmas day.

And if you were beaten in that same xmas day, you would say it's just the regular season..... Playoff ni koko.
Lol

It is imperative to remind this generation of NBA players and some fans led by Queen James that after 2 years (second time away) of retirement 36-38, Jordan returned to the game aged 39 and joined the Wizards.

The most interesting part of this story is the fact that he played all 82 games for the Wizards in his 2 seasons with the Wizards.

During his first season with the Wizards Jordan averaged 22.9 PPG, 5.7 RPG, 5.2 APG, and 1.4 SPG.

Second season aged 40 he averaged 20.0 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 3.8 APG, and 1.5 SPG.

Can anyone imagine if he never took breaks from the game? his numbers would have been mythical.

Today, players take rest from games and tell fans "I HAVE PAYED MY DUES".

Kindly retire and spare your followers the anguish of chasing a ghost who keeps running even after being retired.

People don't understand lol....
They just want to talk, they say the dude is close to jordan, Jordan played 15 years, 13 basically, then came back and played 39-40.
Lebron is going on his how many season now? 14? 15? Jordan already had 6 rings. But i am sleep though.

Who knows of any good app that shows play by play and box scores in a live game?

I've been using ClutchPoints on iOS but that one is always on a data binge. I need something more friendly with the pockets.

Anyone?

A40:

What do you mean by being respectful to Wade and Miami? I'm not understanding. Someone that finished 2nd in MVP voting and 'notable analysts' swore he was being denied a 3rd straight MVP on purpose.

Wouldn't Wade have put aside hurt feelings to win another ring? At least it was abundantly clear from the regular season and earlier rounds who the best player was

Yeah, I admit, I was wrong to have said it that way. All I meant was Miami didn't have a clear direction on who was the leader of the team. Who the offence should run thru. My statement was solely by my observations on how equally James and dwane shared the ball. It was just too damn equal and most times in their first season together, their strategy was going one on one against their primary defender one after the other.
For the fact that James was runner up MVP, doesn't dispute that.

Hope u would admit that it kind of changed from the following season till James left for cavs.

A40:

Abeg I would put Kobe ahead of Shaq. Kareem and Magic played with James Worthy another all time great. When 3 of a starting five are HOFers its usually a lot easier to accomplish things. I want to see how Kareem and Magic function with trolls like Brian Cook, Smush Parker and Jordan Farmar

Lmao. Conveniently forgetting LeBron plays in the weaker conference. Where would Cavs smell playoffs in the West? You think sub .500 teams can make playoffs over there? We are talking of players so mediocre a lot of them spent less than 5 years in the league. Kobe's starting center was Kwame Brown, Kwame goddamn Brown. You are using A.I as example, can you compare the quality of competition in the West. You think LeBron with Kwame Brown and Smush Parker woulda beaten the Suns? Lmao bruh

If it was sure for him why did he run to team up with his all-star, finals Mvp draft mates?

There are many teams LeBron, Shaq, Kareem would not have led to the playoffs and Kobe's Lakers till Gasol came was one of them. Even though Gasol was no Wade and we can't categorically say he is better than Bosh

well, personal opinion to say you would place kobe ahead of Shaq, magic and kareem. For the fact that kobe won 2 championships with mediocre players as compared to the rest that did with Hall of famers doesn't make kobe superior to the others.
You can use 2 years/2 seasons of accomplishments of one player to compare an entire careers of another.
I didn't have just the championships in mind when I compared them.

This East to West competitive disparity is a bit too exaggerated at times.

LeBron knocked out pistons and nets enroute to finals 2007 with a very weak cavs. The nets had vince Carter and Jason kidd still in top-form. Pistons had Hamilton, chauncy billups and rasheed Wallace still playing great.
U making it sound like LeBron, cos he's in the East had an easy ride to the finals.

I version had same challenges leading phily to the finals. The whole world would remember all the 76ers series went to the wire. I think there all went to either game 5's or game 7's.

I don't think any individual player in the history of the game has pushed his team that far to the finals like Iverson did.

I would place the West to be much weaker than the east that particular season, because lakers if I remember well sweet all their opponents to the finals. At worst, they lost one game.

That shade/tease u dropped on LeBron "running to team up with all stars to win", has been taken kind of far.

There's hardly a way I would defend this without we falling back to the stale-issue of durant running from okc to team up with warriors.
We have both traded opinions about that. And we both still stay firmly by them.

A40:

What did he do to slow down Kawhi Leonard in 2014. I can understand Dirk who had a significant edge in size. Not that Dirk hasn't been efficiently guarded by a smaller guy (Stephen Jackson says hi)

The question is how did a fellow Small Forward under his watch put up one of the most efficient offensive displays in Finals history.

Shey you know Bosh was injured for the 2nd half of that season sha

Year, Bosh was injured half of that season. Injuries or not, himself and wade had deteriorated so badly.

I had to go back memory lane to see if LeBron was really as bad as u insinuated against Kawhi. Yeah James was kawhi's primary marker considering they are both small forwards. But with the way spurs play, anyone would loose his primary marked-opponent more than half the time.

I also had to do a tiny research to compare the scoring stats if both James and leonard thru that series.

GAME 1: james 25points - Kawhi 9points

GAME 2: James 25points - Kawhi 9points

GAME 3: james 22points - Kawhi 29points

GAME 4: james 24 points - Kawhi 20points

GAME 5: james 31 points - kawhi 23points.

All these happened with James attracting more double - teams and tripple-teams than any player on both sides.

As you can see, Kawhi didn't exactly oppress James thru that series as most of you try to paint it. I want to believe because spurs won that series and the championship hence your wrong view of how they fared against themselves.

If by chance Miami had won that series with exactly the same stats head to head between LeBron and Kawhi, I swear with my life, most of you who rate and compare primarily by RINGS wouldn't have sed "how did Kawhi put up such an efficient whatever under jade's watch".

RIP Craig Sager..

You fought a great fight!!!!

You are praising lebron by saying he beats net and pistons with a weak side eventually losing the finals... Gentleman sweep... but still disrespecting Kobe even though he won two championship with same players twice in a row against an elite Boston team.

Craig and his vintage suits. Will be missed. Rest Easy!

how many garbage points did lebron put up? You no check am too....

I mean I remember vividly scoring about 10-12 points garbage points in that series every fourth quarter, but okay

The question is does lebron team up with all stars to win? Yes or No?

Donlittle:
The question is does lebron team up with all stars to win? Yes or No?

The answer is "could those all stars even reach the playoffs without LeBron?"
Cavs, pre-Lebron's comeback, couldn't smell the playoffs.
Same-Miami roster that had gotten to four straight finals(minus-LeBron) couldn't smell the playoffs either.
This current Cavs have lost more than 60% of their matches whereby LeBron was rested(DNP), counting from last season.
They play so poorly and also loose against mediocre teams without LeBron.
Truth is there was no Top-5 playoffs seeded team on both sides of the conference that LeBron would have teamed up with that wouldn't have been tipped to at least get to the finals.
I say this because in more often than not, top-5 seeded teams have at least 2allstars in them.
There's no top-5 seeded team he would team up with that wouldn't at worst become a championship contender.
The game has only seen a handful of players capable of changing a franchise to overnight - title contender.

Wade had a ring, bosh was getting to the playoffs in the east, and was a franchise player. But you did not answer my player, does lebron team up with Star players to win a championship? SImple question, you come they give me epistle. Top 5 seed have at least 2 all stars? Somebody must have forgotten Memphis only has gasol, hey bro, Dirk nowitzki beat your boy in 6 games, and he was the only All star on that team.......

What do you mean by "Scoring garbage points"? I am not understanding. We both know most of the games in that series were blowouts. Besides game 2 Miami won, they lost the other four games with average of 20points. I can't pin point exact quarters lebron made most of his buckets. But on an individual - level I didn't think he was as bad as u making it seem.
San Antonio didn't even bother much with Bosh and Wade. All eyes, hands and body was on LeBron.

lol in the fourth quarter, with about 8 minutes to go, lebron had probably about 10 points in each game. Fam, we all watched it, we all saw it, you are making it seem like you don't know what garbage points is.

Yeah the first three quarters, they defended him well, and in the fourth while they were down by 20, they just let him put points up, just because no one care, and while most of the better players for San Antonio were out of the game.

That's why we call it a GENTLEMAN SWEEP.

The greatest thing lebron has ever done in my book was winning that championship for cleveland, not only winning, but the style and manner in which he did it, coming down from 3 - 1 to give that team a championship. That's greatness, not even going to debate on it.

but the manner in which you lebron fan boy want to disrespect kobe, and even jordan per say is what i am not here for, and will never be here for.
I just elevated him over larry bird self.

Btw, Garbage points is the points you put up in the fourth quarter while the game is out of reach, @A40 i get am right?

Wade last had a ring four whole years before lebron teamed up with him. Don't make it sound like it was just one-season before lebron came in. The very next season LeBron left, they couldn't smell playoffs.
Yeah Memphis had just gasol. but that's why I used the phrase ''more often than not". Meaning on the average, lebron could make any top-5 seeded team become contenders.
Yeah, Dirk whooped Miami. So, what's ur point? Not that we haven't seen finals upsets In the league b4.
Pistons did it to Shaq a d kobe. Dirk did same to kobe's lakers after winning back to back chips.
So what ur point.
