You all still missed my point.. I never said it wasn't unsual. The resident troll LebronJames23 said "He would be to old to play".... I am saying " Since When?". He doesn't know that and neither does , so anyone else. A serious injury would end it. I think Goran Dragic might be in that boat next year... But we dont know that .. None of us are fortune tellers, so while tlance might be right.. It has absolutely nothing to do with the contention that LeBron will or wont be able to play because the future is not written yet.

No you missed the point of what TLance was saying. Your quote is beyond his point and that is what I was saying. I don't care about what the other poster said...you responded to TLance. We haven't seen a player do this since MJ..never said anything about the future. You are rambling on about nothing to do with what you responded to about TLance's post

Stay off social then.

Anybody who matters knows how incredible he is. Why pay anybody else any mind?

What makes you think I do? You asked a question, I answered it.

As far as LeBron, he probably doesn't mind the haters but players at his level deserve and crave being recognized and it's insane how many fans simply don't realize what they are seeing with him.

Agree, and as much as it sucks to lose, I think I’d rather lose like that, then a game that makes you suffer for 48 minutes.

no doubt.....when I text with a friend durting Browns games I always say at some point if they are to drop this one just don't let it be a heartbreaker. Yes, I realize not the same as a Finals, but thought the same when Cavs were in those, as well.

 

[dtgold88]

Why didn't the NBA get them rings the last 10 years?

He won either way......you know if Miami had won last night the narrative from him was "look, the NBA got their 7 games."

I meant him lol

 

[dtgold88]

Vogel is reading my posts.

This is bad news for Miami.

@dtgold88,

Starting small means Howard highly likely to DNP.

You might want to adjust that lineup. 2 0s not a recipe for success.

I left it.....was a throw away, just in case lineup.

I figured so I added a bit at the end lol

Congrats to the Lakers for a well earned Bubble title. To me, if anything, bubble made it harder for them. And, yes, congrats to Lebron for #4. Often think he is too self serving when he talks, but loved what he had to say after the game. Might I think differently about him if he did not get us a title? Maybe....but he did. Also congrats to the Heat for getting farther than I I think maybe anyone here had them going...including their own fans.

Too bad Lebron made the dumb move of getting to the other 6 Finals only to lose as he'd be 2 away from catching MJs 6-0 without those pesky trips. And congrats to JR who is now just one title away from catching Curry and Klay.

I kid....sort of.

 

[dtgold88]

Spo's weakness continues to show. No personnel adjustments.

yeah....couldn't possibly be things that worked in past didn't or his opponent has a couple decent players.

 

[dtgold88]

Last basketball game until January/February most likely.

The week going to be rough for the next 3 months especially since it is the cold season. Can't really go out and stay out as you would in the summer.

Right...could not believe when someone said (I think in postgame) this season has taken a year, but my God it's damn close.

@WiggyRuss

They have done a nice job but to be fair if this team played in Cleveland, Detroit, Milwaukee, etc cannot imagine Butler comes along....though I do get Wiggy was way off base on Butler.

He doesn't do anything but ramble on.

Chiefs-champions

Lakers-champions...

not bad for a Covid year...

and yes, I'm celebrating lol...

and the Browns have the same record as KC.

apocalypse is certainly upon us.

Congrats!!

 

[dtgold88]

You sound like Wiggy.

Yeah...wiggy does take some unnecessary flak (as few if any had Miami getting past the Bucks, including their own fans) but he has been way off on Butler.

Is he elite of elite? Nope. But he carried that team to a couple wins. was almost like a more efficient Lebron from the 2014-15 cavs Finals team. Butler did have more talent around him, though.

 

[tlance]

There have more than a few 35 year olds play good. Winning a championship has more to do with the team and right coach

The statement, however wasnt about 35 year old players in general even though that too would be stupid... The statement was Lebron would be to old to play.. You all need to take your Lakers haters blinders off because they cant tell you the future

I hope you aren’t calling me a LeBron hater.

If you are, you clearly haven’t been paying attention.
