LeBron James: East Teams Think They Can Get To Finals Because They Ain't Gotta Go Through Me 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Feb 8, 2019 3:40 pm

LeBron James is enjoying seeing the top teams in the Eastern Conference make bold moves as the deadline now that he's in the West.


“Those top teams in the East, yeah, they’re going for it,” James told The Athletic. “Toronto is going for it, Milwaukee’s going for it, Philly. Boston believes they can do it, too. They know they ain’t gotta go through Cleveland anymore.


“Everybody in the East thinks they can get to the Finals because they ain’t gotta go through me.”


James made eight straight Finals coming out of the Eastern Conference.


“I was excited seeing all the moves they made in the East today,” James said. “Those matchups in the second round, in the Eastern Conference finals, that **** is gonna be crazy. It’s gonna be fun to watch.”

He made his millions now he’s just like Kobe thinks he’s better than everyone else. How about donations more than 1 million out of your 80+million you make on your contract and endorsements. You’re no saint. Your greedy and now stuck up; good look.

If LeBron were still on the cavs and the cavs continued to make the same win now moves they’ve done for the last 8 years in a row with him in mind, it’d be LeBron vs. the West NBA finals part 9. The East had 8 years to try to figure it out and get through him, but failed. What makes you think the results would be any different just one year later with LeBron still deemed the best in the world and playing at the highest level lmao

Refrain from posting. You’re decreasing the few brain cells you have left with all that yelling.

He built an entire school for at risk kids and is paying for the students and some of the parents education. Look it up. He’s pretty damn generous with his wealth. Especially when he doesn’t have to be.

That's such a demagogue comment really. There's one thing LeBron has over MJ is his charity work. Dude built a school, offered scholarships and is heavily involved in the Akron community as well as a defendent of civil rights.

They also won’t see him in the Final, yeah. Should have stayed in the minor league, Bron.

Lebrons right, only a guy that has been to the finals as much as him can say this. He's not lying, exaggerating or being egotistic, he's just speaking the truth. Truth seems to hurt some people on this forum.

What he's saying is true. But if he had the same team he had last year in Cleveland, Toronto, Milwaukee, and Philly would be more favored this year in my opinion. Those are Legit contenders right now. Golden State might actually have a hard time this year.

Also LeBron is going to be out in the first round this year.

Good comeback dildo. Here’s an accounting lesson for you....

Example of MM
Sales of $3,000,000 might be written as $3MM.

I have seen one million represented by mn and also by m (both lower case).

Hence, you might see $1,400,000 expressed as $1.4 million or $1.4MM or $1.4mn or $1.4m.
