JordanBulls GTFIH.

Anyone else glad Andre Iguodala got denied? When AD clipped his ankle on him I thought great, he’s dicked over LeBron yet again.

Congrats to Lebron and the Lakers for the title. Also glad to see AD get a title as well as Dwight now. Glad to see the threats to Danny Green didn't come thru.

I’d have zero doubts about this team cruising to a repeat if they just had a third guy that could take people off the dribble and create offense. Maybe we’ll get to see what he really has left in the tank next year if they don’t get one lol

I think after today’s game, AD drops below 30. In any case, LeBron has more 30 PER runs through the Finals than every other player ever combined.

30 PER postseasons played through Finals

0. Mikan, 1953, 33.5, 13 games played, won title, age 29
1. LeBron, 2018, 32.2, 22 games played, lost in Finals, age 33
2. Jordan, 1991, 32.0, 17 games played, won title, age 27
3. LeBron, 2014, 31.1, 20 games played, lost in finals, age 29
4. Shaq, 2000, 30.5, 23 games played, won title, age 27
5. LeBron, 2020, 30.4*, 21 games played, won title, age 35
6. LeBron, 2012, 30.3, 23 games played, won title, age 27
7. LeBron, 2017, 30.1, 18 games played, lost in Finals, age 32
8. Jordan, 1993, 30.1, 19 games played, won title, age 29
9. LeBron, 2016, 30.0, 23 games played, won title, age 31

Every time allayer has had a 30 PER through the playoffs, he’s won the title other than Bron in 2018, 2017, 2014, i.e., when he played all time juggernauts.

He’s also the only one to have a 30 PER run post 30 years of age (4 times, more than Jordan and Shaq did combined).

Only objective of the offseason: Pelinka doesn't pull a bob myers and say something to make AD leave

I don’t see how this guy isn’t the GOAT TBH...

He could retire today and he’s my GOAT.

Just a legendary career

Anyway, 4MVPs and 4 titles. Gonna be a good night to browse reddit and GB :)


I mean even you couldn't have expected this blowout haha.

But yeah. Even though the W was the most likely result, the way the games have gone just made everyone nervous. But that's being a LeBron fan. Is it bittwersweet for you Paulie?


I think I said before, knowing LeBron at this point, I wouldn't worry about him unless he's trailing 3-2 in a series but yeah, this series was never really in doubt. Miami was playing from behind the entire point and made a series of it, so credit to them.

It's not bittersweet as much as, my fandom has changed quite a bit since 2016. Becoming more of an NBA fan than a team or even a player fan to be honest. Still like Miami and still like LeBron so this was win-win for me?

I'm about 90% certain Skip Bayless is a Real Gm troll who happens to have a tv show.

Man AD is such a blessing. If you were to make a superstar in a lab to mesh with Lebron as well as possible it would pretty much be him. With all due respect to 2011 Wade AD is easily the best teammate he's ever had.

Gotta hope Lebron manages to stay close to this level for another several years to come, AD deserves it after the crap he dealt with for 7 years in New Orleans.
