Philly vs Celtics: 6:30PM CST TNT

GSW vs Lakers: 9:00PM CST TNT

You know how I know there's a difference between me and you?

I don't try to pretend that Lebron doesn't have the longevity argument like you do with Jordan having the peak argument.

Only a delusional Lebron Stan could possibly think that their peaks are the same.

If you don't think there are old heads out there gripping onto MJ/Brady and refusing to acknowledge the greatness of LeBron/Mahomes no matter what they accomplish, you're more delusional than I thought. It's been happening since LeBron has been drafted and it's been happening for 5 years now with Mahomes.

Who said there aren't?

All I'm saying is that you are the other side of the same coin.

Sure, but he's not LeBron and never will be. Not even close.

LeBron had no one on his Cleveland teams before he left for Miami.

But you have an agenda, so it’s OK.

JFC you’re as bad as KCC.

Nah, that only works for Brady. I actually acknowledge MJ was a great player, just with a career that doesn't match up to LeBron's overall.

Wut?

It's like you aren't even paying attention to anything I've ever said on this discussion.

I was just pointing out that fact of that particular series. I'm not saying that Jimmy Butler is as good as peak Lebron JFC.

Lebron is the 2nd greatest player I've ever seen. He has the longevity argument. It's jsut a matter of quality vs. quantity.

You and KCC both derail this thread to such a degree that every other post is you sucking off MJ and KCC is sucking off LeBron.

You both feel the need to put down the others accomplishments.

Every. ****ing. Time.

I never bring it up. Ever. Me participating in a discussion that it already happening does not make me the same as KCC.

It's always him fishing for these arguments. Don't get mad at me for occasionally pushing back. I'm certainly not the only one either.

Now kindly go **** yourself cry baby.

Ok. That's why you and Barry both go and find stats to disparage curry and only curry...

The nuggets would have destroyed this seasons warriors.

Takes two to tango, even in a brinks truck, bud.

Also, since I apparently "put down" Lebron's "accomplishments", it's pretty funny that I've never once tried to discredit his championship with the Lakers like many do (Billay literally did on this page).

I don't agree with that. If it were just about putting down Lebron's accomplishments, I would.

All I did was say that Jimmy didn't have somebody like AD. I think that's totally fair to point out, but for whatever reason, it sure did get your panties in a bunch.

Accurate. Shows up whenever LeBron's team loses games. He was conveniently nowhere to be found when the Lakers were upsetting the Grizzlies and Warriors.

He is absolutely terrified of LeBron reaching six titles because it would be the last remaining argument that MJ even has gone.

I don't need to find stats to disparage Curry. He does that himself by missing every big shot he's ever taken.

And the Celtics should have destroyed the Warriors last year in the Finals on paper, but didn't get it done. You never know what could have happened had the Lakers not eliminated them.

You're completely delusional.

I don't even make the titles argument. I rarely if ever bring that up. In fact, I only really brought it up recently to point out how desperate you and Barry are for more titles, because you simultaneously try to pretend they don't matter at all.
