Congrats Miami Heat and LBJ. Now we can lose the lazy no-ring argument against a player who is truly one of a kind. His passing ability to me is the most fascinating for a player of his size and skill set.

I think my point was missed. I was saying LBJ been playing at this high level most in playoffs for the past 5 years – outside those 2 Boston games and the 3 Dallas games. I don’t think he’s changed so much as gotten Wade & Bosh to take some pressure off him. That’s meant as a compliment not a dig.

Lebron had to dominate offensively while in cleveland. In miami, he could dominate defensively while still putting up stellar numbers. He didnt have to do everything (except for the times when wade disappeared)

There’s no reason to think Lebron’s stats and more MVPs wont put him anywhere short in those metrics of top 5 players ever.

The whole title thing will be dicey given modern roster/salary restraints. I mean if Bosh dont come back I am not sure if they beat OKC. MIA could be a good place for Lebron. I always thought he’d be bolting to L.A. when he can first leave, but now maybe not.

31-10-5 in playoffs for LBJ this postseason.
*The year the Cavs lost to ORL, he averaged 35-9-8.

Battier/Miller/Chalmers just a touch better than Williams/West/I dont even know which shitty player to mention

Hey Spo, its ok to drop the robotic coach speak for once. Be human.

Thankfully we can now turn our attention to Melo losing in the first round 8 of 9 seasons and OKC needing to amend their roster.

Props to MIA. Looking forward to them firing Spo next year all the same!

Championship in hand, LeBron is on the journey towards being the greatest player ever. These next 3-5 years will be interesting.

I wonder how Bayless will spin it and deflect all criticism so he comes off as always right!

Sign Deron Williams because he will want to play for a contender!

I’m sure Lisk will break it down, but one of the best postseasons an individual has had in the modern era. Congrats LeBron. Consider the monkey off your back.

Despite wade being a bitch on the court, mad props to him for doing what he does while dealing with that psycho bitch exwife who is trying to steal the kids

Jerry Reinsdort knew Eddie Curry would be a vital cog on a championship team.
