He ain't top 5 all time. And people who think that are overrating the **** out of him.

There are a few in this thread who think that. And thousands more NBA fans who think that.

Thus, he's overrated. Not to mention dead.

Bron dicksucker. **** the Lakers until he is gone. So you finally win a ****ing game on nat TV. Whoopty ****ing do.

Another brainwashed zombie. If you hear something enough, you start believing it. Can only win when he can stack a team. Mental midget. OVERRATED. You can't be top 2 with a LOSING ****ING FINALS RECORD.

5-2 > 4-6

I don’t really watch the Lakers or Lebron. I’m a Timberwolves fan. Want to talk about Kevin Garnett and his place among all-time great PFs?

If not, I’d prefer to keep our discussion to people who are still alive. Kobe doesn’t qualify.

Hey it looks like they're gonna make the playoffs this year. But 2/3 of the damn league make the playoffs now. They really need to end that 17 year playoff series win drought. Tied for league worst with the Hornets and Kings.

I still feel "Because Chiefs" energy when it comes to the Timberwolves.

Ex: The very year the Timberwolves are a top 8 Western Conference team in March is the first year of the NBA making it possible for them to get bumped from going to the playoffs by some ass**** play-in team. God forbid the NBA introduce it in a year when they're a scrappy 20-30 bunch of losers who can run the court but do little else well.

The 17 year playoff series drought it bad, yes. What's worse though is I believe within the past year they became (temporarily, I think?) the team with the single worst franchise winning percentage of all four major leagues. They might still have that distinction even with their improved record this particular season.

Let's see Kobe ever come up with anything this genius. Well, actually, let's not, since Kobe is dead.

KG > Kobe

The DLo trade still pisses me off. Yeah, he's figuring out how to play and pass a bit, but Wiggins + Kuminga would have made this team much better. Still don't understand what Rosas was trying to do.

Oh boy this 76er's - Nets game is going to be good. Already lots of physical play. Love it

[dirk digler]

Damn Nets looking unstoppable. 76ers better tank a few games to avoid them in the 1st round

There's no stopping LeBron right now.

In the Lakers' win, James posted his 14th career 50-point game, tying Rick Barry for 6th in NBA history.

LeBron is also the 6th ever with 50+ Pts in consecutive home games, and the only one to do it after turning 30. pic.twitter.com/03RXfi15sl

KCC still hasn't reached the acceptance step in the grieving process yet. No matter what MJ will always be 1 according to the masses and any respectable list.
