We as a sports fans sometimes take greatness for granted, and instead of appreciating the accomplishments in the moment, always want more.
I never fully appreciated Jordan or Tiger in the moment, but it was only after that greatness was gone and you look back and realized that they dominated in ways that had never been done before.
This is what his happening with Lebron right now. This series so far is the his defining moment in his career, his pinnacle, and he's carrying a pack of scrubs every step of the way. No superstar has ever won a championship with a supporting cast like this.
It's the most dominating I've seen a player in the Finals since the 90's Jordan era. If he wins this one, imo he's tied with Jordan. He's already the most complete player of all time, but didn't have those Finals moments like Jordan did. That shot vs San Antonio a couple years ago and this entire series close that gap significantly.

spooner All American 1860 Posts user info edit post |
^ i assume that's based on their performance throughout the season? but to be fair, if you just watch the last 3 games, they are definitely NOT playing like the 60/62 supporting cast of all time. Their current performance has been great, and they've easily outplayed the Warriors secondary players - most notably on the boards and on the defensive end. One can say that that's due to Lebron's leadership, but you gotta give them some credit. 6/10/2015 10:48:15 AM |

In 2000, Shaq put up 38-17 shooting 60%. Wasn't too shabby in 01 and 02. 06 Wade, 09 Kobe and maybe 03 Duncan prob deserve to be in that convo as well. But Shaq was def right up there with Jordan an Bron.6/10/2015 10:54:44 AM |

The logic would be the "Lebron-effect". He's carrying them and at the same time lifting his teammate's level of play.
Normally I'd be wary of that...but I've watched all three games, and he's doing it. 6/10/2015 10:55:01 AM |

Its not debatable. Its not even close if he wins. Inwas one of the haters when he won with miami and it w as debatable back then but now theres no way we can avoid crediting lebron.
Jordans teams were some of the best teams ever. We know that this cleveland team is shit and have the data from miami and cleveland without lebron to prove it. 6/10/2015 1:52:25 PM |
