I've never really considered it that way, but yeah - that's not wrong.

That Mavericks loss was pretty damn inexcusable. But the Cavs win was pretty equally unimaginable.

Yeah, that seems a bit of a wash.

Remember Lebron getting D'd up by JJ Barrea?

Yea, said the same thing earlier. I give Lebron full credit there, but at best it just cancels out 2011 because that was BAD.

Honestly for me, there was probably nothing Lebron could do after 2011 though. I just mean for arguments sake.

Translation:

"If AD had been the best player on the team, then I could claim LeBron carried the lakers to the finals."

Yes, they created the flagrant foul because he whined to Stern about the Pistons. Good point. Now there are flagrant fouls every game for what used to be a common foul.

On the contrary, I was the one saying AD was the best player on the team in both the Grizzlies and Lakers' series, so that is false.

LeBron has been the GOAT since he finished 2016 in that fashion. Statistically, he's only kept building that case enormously since then.

Again, at best cancels out 2011, which you pretend to acknowledge but ignore every time you bring up 2016.

No point in acknowledging Barry level posts.

It more than supersedes any bad series he ever had, just like nobody brings up some of MJ's awful playoff performances against the Pistons after his run of titles.

MJ took 8 shots in a ECF game in 1989 at his absolute physical peak, a game after he went 5 for 15. You have to wonder why it doesn't get talked about more.

1 game versus 5 straight no shows in the 4th Q in the Finals.
