Did LeBron make them reach 4 straight finals or did they make 4 finals before LeBron joined them, I'm confused
How many straight Finals did LeNomad get to before joining the Heat?

How did he ruin the league when there were so many other good teams better or on par with them? Did the heat win 73 games and go to the finals when he signed? did the heat have the years MVP? LOL!
Better than the Heat? Lol this is a bad joke. Between 2010-2014 the Heat were the winningest team in the League. No? In the East the Heat's competition was Derrick Rose and Luol Deng grin grin then subsequently baby Paul George and Roy Hibbert grin grin

By virtue of their 4 straight Finals they were the best team in the league bar none. LeNomad was the reigning MVP and teleported to join 2 other top 15 or 20 players in the league at the time. Pound for pound it was the same thing

Name one team that year that had 3 All-stars beside the Miami Heat

ZenHallewell:
This literally makes no sense whatsoever. The same move? LMAO! Did lebron join the orlando magic or celtics? no, he tried to beat them. When lebron choked against dallas did he go join them the year after or made sure he went all the way the next year? What payback? that lebron had a decent team around him for once? LOL! Like i said, zero sense. If KD had joined the wizards and teamed up with wall and another star i wouldnt blame him, or joined any other team for that matter. This guy had a 3-1 lead against this team, choked and then joined them the year later after they won 73 games and came back from the finals. Thats the weakest move any superstar has ever pulled in the history of the NBA.
Who appointed you Judge and Jury of the NBA to arbitrate which move was worse than the other?

You're legit the one not making sense. Why would LeNomad join the teams whose best 3 players are at an average age of 35 even if they beat him?

Or the Magic who had just Dwight and Lewis when you can link up with two of the top 5 players in your draft who so happens to be among the top 15/20 players in the league?

What would be left of the league if everyone left their undesirable situations. If Dirk had left Dallas, if Hakeem left Houston, Reggie left Indy, Lillard left Portland. The players that stayed with their franchise through thick and thin do they have two heads??

Keep the same energy at all times. What is good for the Jews should be good for Uganda

ZenHallewell:
Like i always say, if the lakers can get kawhi/kyrie and then get AD? LOOOL! KD can stay. Lets see how he does against a good lebron team, lets see how the rest of the warriors will do against this team. All people are saying is he should prove he can carry a team so why will people hate on him if he wins with the suns? If the lakers can get one superstar i hope he leaves, if they can get a FA and AD, i pray he stays so lebron can whoop his candy as-.
You're hilarious. It would take LeNomad a miracle to win one more ring. Especially this 35 year old version who is staring down the barrel of Father Time

If prime LeNomad who played both ends with the Heatles went 2 of 4 then you're in for spectacular disappointment if you think he would fare better even if they added AD and Kyrie alone

ZenHallewell:
NY is a huge market where he will not be second fiddle to Steph so he will sell more jerseys and shoes, will be revered more by the fans and seen universally as the savior of the wretched knicks. As far as other businesses, he can run them from anywhere this is the 21st century.
Why did LeNomad come to LA? Aren't we in the 21st century? He could have gone anywhere else. KD does not have the star power of Steph or LeNomad. The charisma is not there so forget about ever outselling those two.

Okay this Bledsoe slander has to stop. Man has a bad series and suddenly he's cancer? Lol! He'll bounce back. Bledsoe may not be the best shooting or scoring point guard but he's solid and an amazing defended too. He just needs to step up.
Did he have a good series vs Boston? But for Kyrie matching him brick for brick and George Hill stepping up they would have lost that series.

This series he is shooting 11/45 from the field. His floor level as a PG is too poor for a team trying to win a Championship. How do you survive a potential matchup with Steph when your defense does not even justify you being left on the court because you're such a black hole offensively.

I have nothing against Curry or Iggy or Klay or the donkey, i know they're lebrons b-tches, KD too but it just sucks that this dweeb joined the warriors and now he thinks hes all that, LOL! There hasnt been an NBA champion since 2016 so I'm not as mad as i would be if the warriors as they were had come back to beat the cavs twice. KD ruined the league, and hes a punk for that, hes an even bigger punk if he doesnt rectify that mistake. i dont have a problem with the warriors core.


And you really think lebron is out of the title picture? LOL! You're in for a rude awakening.
LeNomad also ruined the league when he joined up with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh and for the first time in league history we saw 3 stars in their athletic primes come together. You can imagine how crestfallen the rest of the league was, wondering who would save us from not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4 titles that that alliance of evil threatened to win.

Payback is really a muthaphucka and I'm immensely satisfied that LeNomad is the worst affected from that move same way he tried to ruin league parity back in 2010. Ojoro cancel ojoro

As for KD the only reason I would want for him to leave the Warriors is if he really wanted to leave for himself or because the Warriors made it untenable for him to stay. Overwhelmingly loud Bronsexuals will not stop hating KD even if he won a Championship leading the Phoenix Suns so proving anything to them is a waste of time. He would probably never be included in the GOAT discussion so what would his leaving prove to anybody.

From a business standpoint leaving arguably the richest region of North America makes even less sense

Nice prediction there. I watched the final game and it was typical Blues on display. They pounded and bullied the Sharks into submission basically. They seem highly motivated to bring Stanley to St Louis but I can’t support them na! We are serious rivals in the central division so I am going Bruins. The Bruins have a strong power play, the best goaltender(Rask) in this year’s and playoff and a very deep bench.
Soon as I heard Karlsson and Hertl were not playing I knew their goose was cooked. Also that Sharks team had been benefiting from ojoro even before this round. Their luck had run out. It sucks for Jumbo Joe as he might never win a Cup

The team with the best chance of beating the Bruins would have been the Lightning but they are already out, That Blues team reminds me of LA Kings in 2012. Bruins are favorites no doubt but the Blues have a solid goaltender as well, though not on Tuuka Rask level.

Marchand, Bergeron, Pasternak and Krejci are elite forwards but I think the Blues have even more forward depth even down to their 4th line. I have not forgiven my team's GM Jim Rutherford for trading Oskar Sundqvist for that outdated hockey goon Ryan Reaves

This tie is too close to call.

Bruhhhh He just signed a new contract so He'll be there for the forseeable future. Plus no team with playoff ambitions will take His contract.
Doesn't have to be. Could be to a tanking team. His yearly average is under $20mil. Decent in today's NBA. As he ages and the small athleticism he has diminishes he would get even worse

After they flew to the Hamptons to cry to KD? LOL 2016 will always haunt the warriors, its their marquee season/currys too and they bottled it all thanks to king james. Thats why their fans are still obsessed with him.

And mark me, they are about to blow that 3-1 playoff lead.
Of course the way and manner of the loss will sting somewhat. I'm still mad about how we lost to United in 1999 but we knocked them out 3 times since then so it's all good.

I bet Bronsexuals are madder at KD than Curry fans are mad at LeNomad. That's why they are attacking KD both on print and social media.

Your man's is out of the title picture. It's better you wake up and smell the roses. Anthony Davis, Baron Davis, Viola Davis. No more titles for LeNomad

Finals H2H 3-1 including a sweep. I'm sure he's moved on from one weakside block

Even the 3-1 lead that is seemingly unassailable gets frequently overturned like we saw with the Knights and the Sharks. Winning the President's Cup is almost the kiss of death. I think the Blackhawks and Red Wings are the only two teams in 20 years who have won that and won the Cup

After this first round I find it really difficult to predict a certain team winning it all. The teams are ridiculously evenly matched. However I'd go for a Bruins vs Blues Stanley Cup Finals

And who says Durant is not feeding of the hate? He's about to be 3 time finals MVP, showing up when it counts.
Kobe who went on social media to try and insert himself in the Goat conversation is not sensitive?

All ultracompetive guys are sensitive, but as long as its not disrupting your performance on the court it doesn't matter.

Imagine Jordan who keeps newspapers carrying headlines that slander him in order to motivate himself facing Twitter and social media scrutiny. If that's not sensitive then I don't know what is
Lool being interviewed on TV and saying you're the GOAT is different from opening multiple burner accounts to interact with nobodies.

KD is on Twitter and Instagram responding to people with 23 followers, entering reporters DM responding even in instances where he was not actually attacked.

When it comes to sensitivity KD is king abeg. Let's not overflog this thing.

Documenting slights is different from responding to every reporter every social media user for goodness sakes. How can a guy like KD have time to create burner accounts. You're KD FFS

How he handled that Colorado rape case highlights his mental strength and don't forget, in the heat of all that noise, he led the Lakers to the 2003-2004 NBA finals with a 40-year-old Karl Malone, 35-year-old Payton, and 38-year-old Horace Grant.
What KD, LeNomad and co deal with is child's play to what Kobe faced. Kobe just owned it with his chest. You better be ready to bust your butt and play your best at all times or life as a Laker would be hell for you.

I see a lot of Durant is sensitive comments but kobe and mj were tough men. I disagree with this, imagine if kobe and mj played in this social media era were every thing u do and say is microanalyzed and everyone has an opportunity to say rubbish at you. I am pretty sure kobe and mj would have been seen as ultrasensitive and psychopaths by the way they handle it.
Lol naah I don't think any athlete dealt with more hate than Kobe. From his run-in with Shaq where everyone sided with Shaq to Colorado to just having the reputation as a selfish and pain in the a$$ teammate

The difference with Kobe is at no point did he ever care what anyone thought about him. He fed off all the hate and till this day you watch his interviews and everything and the defiance and unapologetic nature he possesses is unmistakable. Guys like LeNomad and KD wanted to be loved, KD knew he would get heat for joining GS, what he thought was being the best player would make that go away but instead it seems to have worsened things especially from the camp of pained Bronsexuals who feel he has denied their queen a shot at more championships.

Guy i am not a Jordan fan,i but the measure of greatness has to be a balance between rings and stats. Net rating, what the hell does that mean, you mean by "Vegas" standard. I ma afraid the only time Lebron won was when he had a decent team, even moreso a great team in Miami. He was only able to beat the golden state after he got draymond suspended for game 5, thus changing the complexion of the series. And why bring age into the matter, Lebron was already in the league when he was 18. So the most suitable comparison can only be based on the number of years spent. Who gives a Bleep about his averages of 40 points in some of the series. Jordan got swept by the Celtics with 4 hall of famers, and sorry i thought the yoruba word "Balogun-Lietenant or Commander" was pretty popular, and that was referring to Pippen. You consider averages of almost 40 against a team led by Derozan an achievement. Jordan averaged almost a 50 with over 50% FGP against the stacked celtics in 1986, i will consider that a stellar performance but that's not winning. Posting great numbers and getting swept at the same time is kind a paradox. Win with great numbers bro, infact, win with 2 points. Meanwhile remember a sweep was in 3 games, then, i might comeback from beeing 3 zero down, you never know(Lebron and Kyrie style). On a serious note, the last i checked Lebron is prone to a bald head too. He may have pushed it's manifestation forward, but nature always catches up. Because the BB ball of this era is better televised and more marketable, that makes it a better league. My friend "shin", 16 years is definitely a good sample size to judge greatness. the last i checked in year 16, lebron has lost in 6 finals. If you cannot beat a team you supposedly called stacked you can protest by not participating. He bulldozed through the east for 9 years, when he finally got into a better conference, he got bounced. He didn't even make the play offs.
Hehehehe he can't even embrace his baldness. Insecurity is a moraphucka
