Tyrone stated that Lebron had the greatest finals series ever. since they probably missed some of the dominant finals performances of some of the older greats I was just showing some stat lines from Jordan and Shaq.

I'm not taking anything away from Lebron, he's already on my all-time starting 5 if he retired today.

Lebron has a top five final play/moment for sure with that block on A.I.

LeBron joining Miami ruined his Legacy !!! His fans are afraid to admit it.

What LeBron did is equivalent to Jordan teaming up with Magic & Bird.A team like that shouldn't lose no finals !!!

That's like Kobe joining Iverson & Garnett.Once again a team like that shouldn't lose any finals.

LeBron opened up the door to chase rings on a Super team.Durant is just doing what LeBron did years ago.

These topics are pointless because of the Lebron Homers.Shaq,Kobe & Duncan are all 3 better than Lebron easy.His finals against GSW was like a soap opera but no excuses here.Lets see who takes it this year and than we can revisit this topic.

The block on Iggy wouldn't have happened if his back wasn't hurt. Lebron did have an all around great series, but considering small ball with lack of good centers, injuries, and playing point forward it's not too surprising. All part of the lucky circumstances that fell upon the Cavs.

Lol....nobody that wins an NBA title "got lucky", definitely not one that came back down 1-3 against only the 2nd team in history to win >70 games.

GS pushed for a ton of wins and imo that contributed to them having nagging injuries and running out of gas down the stretch. That's not bad luck, that was their choice.

P.S. Some people that claim that wasn't the case don't seem to notice how Green, Curry etc. had their mpg go up 10% last year and now it's back where it was the year before. Seems like GS is managing minutes and not grinding for wins a decision that quite possible broke up their chance at a 3-peat etc.

Well good for them considering how UNLUCKY they were with injuries the Finals prior.
