    People already had Lebron Kobe years ago with ESPN ranking him #3 all time with only 2 rings, so this doesn't change much honestly. No one will ever topple MJ because he pretty much had a perfect career with few blemishes. I'm taking realdeal's approach, Kobe is still the best player I've ever seen and this series hasn't changed that for me, I'll just be alone in my opinions (especially around my Lebron loving family members).

    Speights actually brought some energy in this game in the limited time he played. Why he never saw the floor again over Varejao? That one's on Kerr.

    Exactly.

    I was watching tonight, like is Draymond PG, SF, SG, and C out there? Because no one else came to play tonight

    How do you choke away a 3-1 lead? Yikes. 73-9 doesn't mean jacks*** now.

    Dray and Klay came to play tonight. Role players for the most part did their job.

    Curry and Barnes were awful beyond words, Varejao honorable mention for awfulness.

    the kobe/lebron debate was lost in the media years ago, maybe even prior to any of lebron's rings. so, no, this affects laker fans very little, imo.

    i'll always remember lebron as a guy who shrunk from challenges instead of embracing them. the media doesn't seem to care about this, but i do. when my grandkids ask me about lebron, i'll say, "he was a great player, but he only won when he got to stack the deck. that's not the way to live life."

    So that Warriors championship last season was a fluke. They're gonna have to hear that all off season, OUCH!

    Honestly, I don't really care if LeBron is ranked above Kobe. The only thing I care about is the Lakers getting back on top and besting the C-bags for the most championships.

    I wonder how hard the Lakers brass will pursue LeBron this summer. I also wonder if LeBron will entertain leaving Cleveland now that he brought the city a championship.

    Oh right! That's another storyline to watch out for this summer. A few called their championship last season a fluke / lucky. Well... hard to argue with that at this moment.

    I hope you are kidding. After getting Draymond suspended and that horrible ref job in game 6. Whatever. Screw Bron.

    With that said, Curry should be ashamed.

    It's amazing how quickly a narrative can change with only a few shots. If Curry made a big three and Kyrie missed, EVERYTHING CHANGES, Lebron has to deal with 2-5 and GS repeats, cementing themselves as one of the greatest teams of all time.
