I disliked Lebron for so long. Yet this season I was impressed by how what he accomplished. How he carried his team. I even overlooked how he obviously stopped playing defense because he wanted Isaiah (excuse the spelling) Thomas and the others gone. So fine he quit there for a stretch because he was pushing for better role players. He got them.

After game 1 he was demoralized. JR Smith screwed him. Am I saying Cavs win the series had they held on game 1? No. They still lose but they had a shot.

Lebron knew it was over after game 1. The chance for a monumental upset of the stacked Warriors team was over at this point in his mind.

And that's what separates him from Air Jordan. The killer mentality. I'm not saying Jordan would've upset the Warriors but he wouldn't have given up and the Cavs wouldn't have gotten blown out.

If you're going to argue this then you haven't watched every second of every game after game 1. He had given up and he gave himself a built in excuse which he later used.

Even if we were to believe the broken hand then at the very least he's selfish as fuck knowing how much his team needed him.

He's great but I've seen him quit far too often. Jordan never quit. And don't call retiring quitting cause he won rings. Left. Came back won more rings. Left again. And left us wanting more.

Lebron has shown that killer instinct in spurts throughout his career but he never sustained it throughout like Jordan.

Tired of his excuses. Not enough help. I broke my hand. This and that. I'm done. It just bugs me when kids today think he's better than Jordan. Even some silly grown adults.

I had no problem with Cavs getting swept. Nobody would blame Lebron. Durant the bitch and Warriors were stacked. I DO blame him for quitting. But to try to insinuate that it was the broken hand...You chose to punch the wall. It's quitting either way. Selfish, self centered Lebron...yet Durant is still worse than him in my opinion.

So interested to see where Lebron goes. Would love to see him play with Kawhi in San Antonio with the best coach Popovich. I don't see that happening though. Kawhi isn't even wanting to be there.

Lakers aren't championship ready neither are the Sixers. He could always go to Houston and destroy Warriors. That would be cool. But can't see Harden Chris and Lebron working out.

Does Lebron win another championship? He's going to have to go to a stacked team or form a stacked team to do it.

He needs to join up with Anthony Davis. Wow. That would be something.

I read today (forgot where) that its looking like Lebron to LA and its not even about the basketball.

I dont see Lebron winning a title with the lakers as he is preparing for "the next phase" in his life

I can see him becoming/continuing to be a stat chaser for the rest of his career. Sad if he doesn't try to answer the stacked Warriors by forming another all star team. I'm tired of the Warriors with Durant the bitch.
