Isiah Thomas on former NBA players holding LeBron out of the top 5 players of all time:
“Guys are jealous, they get envious…. They intentionally ignore the obvious. When you intentionally ignore the obvious it has to come back to jealousy, envy, or straight up BS. This man got every basketball record on the books, if he ain’t in your top 5, you’re full of sh*t”

Said it before and I’ll say it again..
Iguodala won because they initially voted for Bron but knew that would look crazy so they gave it to the guy that at least made his job the hardest.
LeBron James was the 2015 NBA Finals MVP.
If you want to get rid of flopping the solution is incredibly simple.
$10k fine for your first offense
$25k fine for your second offense
$50k fine for a third offense
$100k fine for your fourth offense
3 game suspension for fifth offense
Make the NBA watchable again
The scissor kick jumper followed by the immediate dive must be addressed. Every team has a player who does it. I see youth players now doing it. It’s so difficult to distinguish in real time. It’s a WWE move and it must be extinguished from the game.
*THIS IS BRUTAL TO WATCH * Luke Kennard here is penalized for catching an elbow jab strike to the chest and for not simply moving out of SGA’s way.
But the best part is watching the ref not even raise his hand for the call until he realizes that SGA’s shot rolls off the rim.
BLATANT & INEXPLICABLE!
