the “there is only one ball” argument is silly when you realize Philly’s starting five is stacked with excellent capable off-ball players and Bron was the missing piece for the playmaking. It’s also going to make Jaylen Brown’s life easier when he does get the ball
They calling LeBron a ring chaser for joining a team that was just swept out of the playoffs and has ONE playoff series win in 3 years ain’t no way yall still that scared….he 42 😂😂
LOOK at this “Superteam” Lebron is joining:
45 wins!
With a negative SRS!
ONE All Star!
NO 1st team All NBA players!
SWEPT in the playoffs!
1 playoff series win in 4 years!
They even had a Conference Finals in 2001!
WHAT a cheater. It’s disgusting the bullshit this guy pulls.
@GoldenKnightGFX exact same view - "ring chasing" happens when you join a established core thats won a championship. KD to warriors/ GP & Malone to Shaq and Kobe Lakers.
Rich Paul and Max Kellerman talking about the LeBron decision 🚨:
“This is why i said all that stuff was false, all the speculation. And at the end of the day these guys are just doing their job. It was a layered decision across the board between Philly and golden state and he just really decided on Philly. Adding LJ with his experience, fighting through adversity, nick nurse has a guy that he can let police the team so the guys don’t turn on Nick.“
Seems like we were so close to a Steph x LeBron duo

The fact that Kobe is never in the vicinity of MJ & LeBron in the impact metrics is a red flag in the GOAT debate
It's fair to expect him to rival them in overall impact - not just in highlights & aesthetics
If you're in the convo, you should show up in the same places GOATs do
Or just add up all-defensive team points
Most points = DPOY. Every single time
Except 3 times:
-Jordan didn’t have the most but still won
-LeBron had the most twice but was 2nd both times
Jordan ballwashers in the media committing legacy fraud
Riddle me this, @RoKhanna. If closing USAID could cause so many child deaths in Africa, why would the African Union's top diplomat in DC celebrate USAID's shutdown? Does she like dead babies? Is she ignorant? How else do you explain her arriving at the same conclusion as DOGE?
LeBron James has never been benched in the NBA Finals for poor performance. As the primary scorer and playmaker on every Finals team he has led, his coaches have consistently relied on him to play heavy minutes in the biggest moments. Any time LeBron spent on the bench during the Finals was due to routine rest, foul trouble, or minor injuries—not because he was ineffective.

Meanwhile, Michael Jordan was temporarily benched by Phil Jackson to begin the fourth quarter of Game 6 of the 1992 NBA Finals, while the Chicago Bulls trailed.
➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤
Jordan fans call him the undisputed GOAT, yet in one of the biggest games of his career, Phil Jackson trusted Scottie Pippen and four role players to lead the comeback.
✅ Jackson opened the fourth quarter with Pippen alongside Bobby Hansen and the Bulls' second unit. That group ignited a 14–2 run, erased the deficit, and shifted the momentum while Jordan watched from the bench.
If LeBron had been sitting on the bench during a Finals comeback, we'd never hear the end of it.
Context matters.
