all 1 game win or go home situations. These have to add something to his legacy even though MJ and KAJ did not play these type of games, right?

What's his finals record

but for real, I don't think this adds much to legacy. Players in his tier don't gain much unless it's a ring

It is impressive, but this shows the Lakers inconsistency. This wouldn't even be a thing if they were winning more. Good job on the first IST though, just goes to show you can start a season strong enough to be the best early, but falls off when the injuries start. Pretty natural for an old team.

Yeah it's impressive.

Never lost in play in or IST

Definitely better than losing these games, and he has that edge on Curry. But still don't know if winning an award named after Pat Bev is much to brag about either.

The mere fact that he's in the play-in... Nevermind. LeBron has got his legacty intact. 2nd GOAT but that's okay.

Nobody comes close to Lebron when it comes to close out games. 1st GOAT

You do know winning the playin is for the right be the 8th/7th seed right? And Lebron said whoever created it should be fired. And the IST was created as a bribe to get players to play hard and do their jobs in the regular season.

Not a Lebron fan but at an advanced age can contribute whatever is needed at a high level for a short series

I don’t think this adds anything at all tbh.

MJ wouldn't have needed play-in games

When your team is the 7th seed in the conference two years in a row (and the 10th a year before), you dont talk about legacy.

Each play-in counts as a championship. They're even. Happy now?

He will be 40 years old in 8 months. Wemby is just an infant when he was drafted in the NBA yet here is LeBron's stats in his 21st season in comparison to Rose's MVP season that hinders LeBron to win 5 straight MVPs.

In the 80's before Scottie Jordan had several drug addicts as teammates and dragged them to the #8 seed several times. They would have been play in teams now. It just goes to show no one player can just win a championship by themselves.

Let’s not do this. You can’t just show two statlines and ignore context. It doesn’t work like that.

Yeah you can because if LeBron and the Lakers we're #1 seed with those stats, wouldn't he deserve the MVP like rose?
