https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask?q=lakers+record+with+lebron+in+2018-19

Made the "Finals" by beating the Celtics without Kyrie/Hayward, Oladipo's Pacers, and the choke brothers in Toronto. Congrats.

Again your obsession with my Kyrie quote from 2017 holds no bearing. Many in the media had him as a top 5 player, MVP level and better than Steph. The thread you quoted specifically said he was better than Steph.

All I've ever said is Kyrie is a top 10 player. He was overrated back then. Underrated right now. Try to keep up.



Kyrie is only underrated by you because he's a Nets.You would never have a comment like "Easy to look like a God when youre playing with the best player in the world."if he would have been a Nets or close to that at this time

In 2018, the cavs won 3 series against 3 teams better than them .... who cares that the celtics had not Hayward and Kyrie since they made 3 ECF in 4 years between 2017 to 2020 even if his 2 players were a not factor in the playoffs in his 3 years

And for 2019, momentum and rhythm are two things that you underestimate way too much, especially when it's the year 1 together. I think it could be a problem for the lakers in this year playoffs too


You're again lying. I had Kyrie as a top 10 player in 2019, way before he planned on signing with the Nets. Or was even rumored to.

You only quote the posts that fit the narrative. You have no real interesting in looking to see what I said.

LeBron
Steph
Durant
Harden
Giannis
Kawhi

I would probably put Kyrie here.

Embiid
Anthony Davis
Paul George

I'm not sure how you can put Kyrie outside of the top 10. Hes an elite player on a good team that has played like a Superstar in the NBA Finals.


viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1795909&hilit=kyrie+top+10&start=80

But yeah lets keep looking at that one quote and avoid all other context :lol: You're low key obsessed with this.

The Celtics were not good that year without their two best players. Sorry. A bad team.

None of these Celtics ECF teams were ever good tbh. Weak East. Means nothing.

Also funny how you didn't even address the fact that you lied about LeBrons record on the Lakers to make him look better.


Sorry but a bad team don't finish with over 50 wins and make the ECF 3 times.....The celtics were better without Kyrie in 2018 and 2019 since player like Tatum and Brown had way more touch.They were also better on defense.Defense matter!

I never lied about the record of the lakers .... They were 20-14 before his injury, which is a fact ... You underestimate the importance of having rhythm and good momentum especially when you are in a new team ... And I didn't even know that the lakers were 16-7 with LBJ, Ingram and Ball

BTW, Curry had a great season, my comments were just to make you understand that there are many things that can be said when you ignore the context

The Lakers were devastated by the injury bug that season and Lebron was the not same after his groin injury.

Read on Twitter


If their three best players could have played more than 23 games together, they would have made the playoffs.


Lakers were 28-27 with lebron that year.

Warriors are 37-26 with Curry this year.



It would have been interesting to see the Warriors record without the presence of a DPOY caliber player in Draymond Green ...The warriors were 5th on defense.

Never in my life have I seen so much hype for a 32 year old dude who missed the playoffs.

curry proved that a jump shooting team could win a championship, but history has shown that is definitely NOT the most reliable way to win a championship. curry is great but their are more reliable players in the post season. if you can't see that point than you're a delusion stan and there's no reasoning with you.

Does Steph Curry still make the HOF despite being outdueled and missing the playoffs at the hands of a 19yr old who can't even shoot threes? #StephExposed

nobody expected them to contend this year. nobody expected them to make it past the 2nd round. if that's your takeaway from my post, you've missed the point.

It's almost as if getting double/triple teamed on every possession makes it hard to get a shot off.

Johnny Tomala wrote:It was very good season by Curry. The gimmick play-in doesn't change the fact that he carried Warriors to 8th seed. I learned nothing new in game vs Grizzlies - he isn't floor general and tends to make a lot of turnovers. As a PG - CP3 over Curry every day of the week. Curry is best shooter of all time, but as a PG he isn't great. His assists rate is meh and he doesn't make other players better as CP3. Still very good season by Curry, will be 1st team All NBA guard.


The warriors are not the 8th seed. They are a lottery team. What alternative reality are you talking about.

Can’t even lead his team to the playoffs, something expected from a super star.

Curry or the Warriors (Kerr et. al.) never really solved his turn over issues while he is tightly guarded in crucial games and moments... his issues were exposed during the 2016 final run, but have been masked by adding KD in the roster in... now his issues got exposed again... hopefully they find a way to solve it, you can't make the no Klay excuses ... superstars usually elevated their games and thrived in these type of situations... Stephen is still great, and one of the best... but the issues are still there...

Durant played 32 minutes dont kid yourself. You guys are running out of excuses, just take the L and have a seat next to clyde


Excuses? Just read what you wrote and think again about what you said.


You are trying to argue that the 2019 Warriors were not that much better than those Rockets just to defend Curry's performance in this game were he lost to the grizzlies who definitely aren't anywhere close to those super team warriors.

Ya you are making excuses.

So who's been more reliable in the playoffs the last several years other than lebron?
