No, THANK YOU! Truly a honor to wear the ๐๐ while trying to continuing the greatness & legacies that came before me! Hope I made a few proud during my stint. ๐๐พ๐ซก๐
Quick timeline of the takes surrounding Lakers-Rockets, with a prediction on tomorrowโs.
April 17th: โThe Lakers have NO chance. Theyโll be lucky not to be swept.โ
April 20th: โIf LeBron pulls this off Iโll call him the GOAT.โ
April 22nd: โThe Rockets are frauds!โ
April 25th: โThe Rockets are the dumbest team Iโve ever seen! Anyone would beat them!โ
April 30th: โThe Lakers are cooked & LeBron is exhausted. Rockets in 7.โ
May 1st: โLeBron is going to blow a 3-0 lead & his GOAT case is over!โ
May 2nd: โYeah, the Lakers won, but itโs actually not that impressive, the Rockets were pretenders.โ
41 YEAR OLD LEBRON HAS THE LAKERS UP 3-0 WITHOUT LUKA & REAVES ๐ญ ๐

During a playoff series where LeBronโs team was +650 underdogs and is up 2-0โฆ
The Lakers just had 9 straight points which where:
โขImpossible LeBron banked runner
โขBronny 3
โขBron to Bronny alley oop
โขImpossible LeBron jumper
Entire sequence was unbelievable.
Hitting the playoff game tying 3 to force OT in the same game you threw an alley oop to your literal son is more impressive in and of itself than 6 rings.
I see today is going to be โBlame the Rockets!โ day rather than maybe a little introspection from folks who at various times this year said with absolute and total convictionโฆ
โขLeBronโs contract is an albatross/Lakers should be desperate to move off him.
โขThe Lakers are better without LeBron on the court.
โขKD & Steph are clearly better than LeBron at this point.
โขLeBron was a primary problem with the Lakers defense.
โขThis offseason any serious team shouldnโt offer LeBron more than the mid-level exception.
โขThe Rockets had 5 of the 6 best players in the series & should sweep the Lakers.
These takes were EVERYWHERE all year long. You were considered delusional/fanboy if you pushed back at all.
And this morning, instead of recognizing that folks are somehow STILL wildly underrating/underestimating the ๐, theyโre just yelling at Durant & Udoka. ๐๐๐
If LeBronโs incomprehensible 10+ point, 17 year, 1,297 game streak were ever going to end, that was simply the greatest way imaginable:
Sitting on 8 points, tie game, ball in hands, chance to keep streak alive with a make or get to OT with a miss, heโฆ made the right play.
Assisted for the open 3. Ball game. Lakers win.
Just perfect. And weโll never see anything like that streak again.
