LeBron is 38. He’s on the decline. And yet he’s still playing this well even on a team that flat out quit.

Don’t get the hate.

It's actually a bit baffling how Lebron only has one ring people actually respect despite playing as long as he has. The two titles from the Heat are fraudulent by the standards of Lebron stans and quite a few don't count the COVID chip.

You may want to go look up the 1985-1986 and 1986-1987 Chicago Bulls. LMAO

Same reason the Brady fans hate on Mahomes. They are terrified of what he means for their idol's legacy.

Lol. :D


Good night

3 times I think not 4.

Spurs in 2007
Warriors in 2018
Nuggets in 2023

It's hilarious to watch him succumb to self inflicted schadenfreude repeatedly because he's kind of a bitchmade douche? What's so hard to figure out here?

i'd give him credit for three rings

it's ok for lebron to be the 5th or 6th best player ever

but jordan did greater things on a basketball court and that is not up for debate

pathetic argument

LeBron didn't have the benefit of being handed 3 HOFers to play with at his first franchise. Instead, he got Mo Williams and Zydrunas Ilgauskas.

He had four titles and would have had at least two more had the #2 and #3 players in the league not gotten so scared of him that they decided to team up.

Of course, considering he's still averaging 30 point triple doubles at his age, he's got more than enough time to jump on board any contender he wants over the next decade if adding up more titles really is the goal.

Must be nice to have a league cater to you like this. LeBron never had that benefit.

Hammock Parties 05-22-2023 10:08 PM

LMAO Barry didn't increase his credibility with that comment

Sassy Squatch 05-22-2023 10:08 PM

Lol, 'hate'? No, it's just jolly good fun to troll Lebron stans. The fact he's made it pretty clear he's quite bitchmade throughout his career doesn't exactly hurt either.

Almost every superstar that comes through the NBA has had to go through a growing pains period to get to a championship level. The lone exception was Magic Johnson, who joined a ready made Lakers team in 1979-80.
