    Dude now you're on his list. He's got the resources to find you (unlike Boron). Then again that hunt may have already started and now you've given his guys another ping to track.

    But how many of those games did Lebron rest?

    What I found funny was his two statements he made in the interview. The first had me literally do the dumb kitty sideways wtf did I hear move. He said, in his 14 years, he had never been given this explanation from an official of why he denied him (lebron) the timeout call when the ball was tied up. The ref said (accordin to Bron) that he couldn't tell you had possession and therefore couldn't give Cle the time out. Bron said his response was something like,I threw him the ball we had possession when I threw it so it doesn't matter if it was tied up then. I'm still shaking my head.

    The other was his 6th foul. He literally said or implied since i can't quote it, it wasn't a foul I didn't make that much contact. I pushed him a bit but it wasn't a 6th foul. So he admits to fouling the guy but then says it wasn't a foul because...um he is Lebron?

    These dude blew a 26 point lead in the FOURTH qtr. Most teams score that much in a quarter on good/average nights. They blew it and want to complain about a call here or there. smh damn head.

    The last thing is once again Lebron gets to play a team that is at our below .500 on the season in the playoffs. In his 14 years he has had the privilege of having barely a competitive conference. GOAT? Still a no for me.

    Yeah, the explanation he gave for the refs not giving him the timeout as Irving is wrestling for possession was..weird to say the least. And yeah, the Cavs stumble into the playoffs is pretty weak. I get that they're defending champs and it's harder as you try and repeat, that he's been to 6 straight Finals and has to be tired, but I also think it says something that LeBron has only won back to back titles once in all that. Been on some of the best teams in the league, joined up with buddies to make superteams, but only managed to repeat once, never got the 3-peat. Also, let's hope this stat holds up

    The season +/- has been a strong indicator of the eventual champion

    If it holds true, the West wins handily whoever comes out of the East

    ***hopes true***

    I just saw a stat that shows how close LeBron is to passing Kobe and possible MJ for most points all time.

    When he finishes will he be considered GOAT? What really makes someone GOAT?

    It's crazy to me that people would think so. I'd say he's earned his spot among the best as someone who impacts a game more than almost anyone I've ever seen, but I still wouldn't want him before a lot of other players. I still wouldn't want him more than Kobe or Jordan or Magic or Kareem.

    LeBron has won as many championships as Larry Bird and we know how great he was. He did repeat once and even a guy like Duncan as great as he was never repeated. I really don't see how anyone can question the guy's greatness after he took the all time great Warriors and having to comeback from 3-1 which had never been done before.

    But he could possibly win two more individual MVP's be they regular season and NBA finals if he makes it that far again. LeBron has never been a legit scorer just an all around impact player like you said, but to see him possibly catching up is really something else. And his award case could be really full at the end of his career.

    He's just so unlikeable.....

    But yes, an outstanding, high performing career with longevity. But he'll never be mistaken for the dominant alpha that a guy like Jordan or Kobe was. Even Paul George says "I have to have the ball in this situation", But Le flop shrunk from the moment for most of his career under the guise of "making the right basketball play".

    :Kobepuking:

    If Kobe had his physical gifts, care to speculate what would have happened?

    Oh he's one of the most impactful players of all time. He can change the game with ease. He is also afraid of the big moments and that's never changed. I've only ever seen him take charge in a couple Playoff series. If it wasn't for Ray Allen and Kyrie, LeBron would 1-7 in the Finals. I know everyone wins with someone else, but his shrinking from those moments in the Playoffs is legendary. He just is too nice of a guy to want to kill you at the end of games and for my money, I want the killer.

    ...Draymond Green's suspension and Bogut's injury contributed to James' cause.
