Re: NBA
Very true. It was also in a much smaller league and he had a shit load of hall of famers as teammates.
Jordan and Russell don't really get compared, either.
Jordan is generally regarded as the best player.
Russell is the biggest champion. But you gotta take my first sentence into the equation.

Re: NBA
Oh don't get me wrong Rp, I totally agree with you. Jordan is better than lebron. The Russell statement I made was just to emphasize the fact that there is endless comparisons and criteria.Ravenpig wrote:Very true.

Re: NBA
I didn't get to see the game. Do you think the heat would have won if lebunk sucked it up and finished the game? Or were the spurs starting to pull away? I could only follow it on my phone thru shitty game cast occasionally

Everyone forgets Magic Johnson played with aids, Lebron should have a better excuse than cramps

Heat were up by 7 when it started, Lebron left for good when SA was up by 2.

Re: NBA
The Heat would have won. They had all the momentum until LeBron started cramping. Most people don't realize just how hard he works at both ends of the court. Kind of sad a broken arena air conditioner will probably end up being the key to this series. Had the Heat pulled out game one on the road they would have won this series. Now it might go 5, maybe 6 at best.BlackHole83 wrote:I didn't get to see the game. Do you think the heat would have won if lebunk sucked it up and finished the game?

As for the Jordan flu game comparison it is faulty logic. You can play with the Flu. You can't play when cramps take over. You cant move. Can't knock LeBron on this one.
It's been a good season. This series, however, is done.

Re: NBA
Did the rest of the players on both teams quit playing too? Was Lebunk the only one playing? Don't make excuses for whack ass James. Blaming an air con failure? Fuck that bullshit this is the finals, man the fuck up. They are representing Miami where it gets humid and hot and stinky. However, this series is by far NOT over.M0G wrote:The Heat would have won.

Re: NBA
None of the rest of the players cramped. They played less minutes. Have you ever truly cramped from dehydration? Where your entire body goes into one unending cramp? You can't move.BlackHole83 wrote:Did the rest of the players on both teams quit playing too? Was Lebunk the only one playing? Don't make excuses for whack ass James. Blaming an air con failure?

Re: NBA
I have actually. It's a bitch, a mother fucking bitch but I recovered, I had no choice. He is an elite athlete, being paid ridiculous coin just to play a game. He has the top medical staff at his will. Dehydrated? He does not know what dehydration is. He should be slamming water days before and up to the game and mad electrolytes during. He most likely will return next game and smash the spurs with a 40 point performance and all this will be forgotten, but this is the finals man come on. I guess that hunger just isn't there the third time around.
Re: NBA
They shot out of their mind because LeBron wasn't on the floor playing his brand of insane defense. He captains that fucking team defensively more than anything else. They ratchet it up in the 4th quarter. The Heat seemed lost without James going down the stretch.Ravenpig wrote:Anyway, we can't forget to give the Spurs credit here. They shot something like 90% in the 4th quarter. Absolutely insane.
Look I like and respect the Spurs. They are a great team and I think they will be a deserving champion, but let's call game one for what it is. That "malfunction" cost Miami the game. Granted, you COULD make the argument that Miami's weak bench cost them the game. The Spurs bench is far superior and Popovich was able to rest Duncan and Parker far more often, hence no cramping issues, and they were fresh down the stretch. Bottom line though I doubt LeBron will recover properly by Sunday to be as effective on both ends of the floor and the Spurs will likely blow the Heat out. Coming back to Miami I expect the Heat to pull out at least one game, they are extremely difficult to beat at home. What seems likely is that the Spurs steal one on the road and close it in 5 at home.
Had the AC Incident never happened, the Heat steal game one and I think win this series. They HAD to win game one to have a chance.

Re: NBA
Um yup. You try playing a Basketball game at that level at that speed at that intensity when it is over 90 degrees on court. In LeBron's case he literally has more responsibility on the court than any other player. He plays the most minutes. Naturally if anyone was going to cramp, it was going to be him. And the Heat lost the game because of it. The Heat lost because LeBron cramped up because the fucking Arena Air Conditioning broke. They should have postponed the game. It was bullshit. The Spurs have a deeper bench and so they could rest Duncan and Parker far more often. The Heat were in complete control until LeBron started cramping.markuspoop wrote:Blaming a game on air conditioning? Lolz.

Minutes played:
Lebron-33
Parker-37
Duncan-33
Ginobili-32
Complete control? They were up by 4 when he started cramping. Down 2 when he left for good.
This isn't even his first time cramping in a Finals game, it happened during the OKC series a couple years ago and the A/C was fine.

Re: NBA
Minutes played was down because he sat for most of the 4th. Down 2 when he left for good you could already start to see him struggling. His output on both ends of the floor far exceeds Parker, Duncan, or Ginobili. He plays defense like Leonard and dominates offensively. He had 25 points before this started. The Heat would have won that game bottom fucking line.Ravenpig wrote:Minutes played:

Re: NBA
Oh god, now Mog is stinking up this thread. This is not the first game Lebron has cramped up in a game Mog. It's happened before in well air conditioned arena's. Spurs shot 87% in the 4th quarter. How can 1 man stop that. Spurs won because of their defense and incredible shooting in the 4th. Spurs will win this series because of defense and Greg P is the best coach in the NBA today. I must admit that I can't stand the Spurs because I am a Jazz fan and they can never win in San Antonio. Haha.
Edit: I think Lebron is the best player today. People saying he needs to be a man and play thru the cramps has never had a cramp. You can't play thru that.

Yeah I figured. That's why I mentioned that everyone else was smart enough to... ah, never mind.
Jeez, there are some pretty cruel memes going around about poor LeBron's "cramping". Surprised they haven't made their way here yet.
