Too many times I’ve seen Lebron and his team have game 7 on their court, it’s refreshing to see the opponent have it now. Only other time I can think of since 2008 was the warriors I think?

One thing for general awareness.

It's pick and roll and role players

Thank you. And don't get angry

Average DPOY and just some guy who's had multiple 50pt games including 60pts in 3 qtrs and the most points in a single quarter EVER. If only every team had "average" players like that as complimentary pieces in addition to 2 time (including the ONLY unanimous EVER) MVP :lol:

I remember the old "how many years does LeBron have left" threads, so many thought his game would age poorly and fall off a cliff.


I remember that, too. When he came into the league, the anti-LBJers said he'd never live up to expectations; when it was obvious that he was going to be great, they changed the narrative to 'well, one injury and it's all over'; when that injury never came, it changed to 'his game won't age well.'

Here he is in his 15th season-- plenty of players retire at about the 15th year, and many don't even make it that long--, balling like the best player in the world.

I wonder where they'll put the goalpost next; all they really have left is the long-debunked 'rangzzz' argument.

Right, because that's totally the same. Because LeBron certainly has a Curry, Thompson, and Draymond playing next to him. Because LeBron certainly missed crucial shots down the stretch. Because LeBron certainly didn't win the game.

ISO has nothing to do with how's many shots you take. You can ISO 5 times. You can take 33 shots without any isos at all. And an ISO isn't necessarily a bad thing either if it's efficient. And LeBron is "great" because his team WON.


Lebron had 9 assists too. I'd argue brons teammates arent nearly as good as unanimous mvp curry and klay. While KD couldn't even get ONE assist
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Isn't the whole point to get open without the ball?

Hard to feel confident going into game 7, and honestly for as great as LeBron is he really has to be exhausted at this point.

But damn this postseason has been amazing to watch him. Grateful that he came back and I'll support whatever he wants to do next year with how much he's given to this team.

60 pts happened when? Most pts ever in a quarter was when? Live in the present

Looking forward to ending Bostons home winning streak, I think the biggest game of these young celtics lives will be to much for them. Brown will probably still get his, doesn't play like a young player, but Tatum definitely showed his youth in game 6 and Horford was a non factor without Love to exploit.

Anyone think Love being out helps the cavs? Maybe it’s just a road game but nance specifically was giving a lot of problems and Jeff green was solid as well.

Agreed lol and bron isnt a ball hog or ball stopper like KD is. He actually gets his teammates involved. Big difference.
