Either Lebron pulls this off and we start legitimately debating if he's the greatest to ever live - or Golden State pulls this off and we start legitimately debating if they are the greatest team or all time.

6 mins.  No presh.


 



Even if Cavs win Lebron is not the greatest ever. He will never be MJ and I will take Bird's 84-87 years over any time period of Lebron.
it will absolutely be debatable.   Love Jordan, but he arguably couldn't do this.  He didn't crack .500 until Scottie arrived.  He left Chicago and they won 55 games without him.  Cavs and heat with and without Lebron are the diff between a championship level team and lotto team. 

But if the Warriors win this we postpone that conversation until Lebron retires.

If warriors win, they might have the title as greatest in history.  Pick your poison narrative.





you do realize the competition Jordan had his first few years in the league right??? 80's Celts team. Pistons, Hawks ect.. Tell me what competition Lebron has had over the last 6 years?? He couldn't get past Boston and had to run to Miami.

When the ball goes up, can you touch the rim/ net?

as James and Curry take turns trying to be the hero...no one is putting the ball in the basket at all.

Had a chance to be one of the best games ever but that last stretch wasnt great -- except for the James block.  KLove with a chance to make a difference- - short. Curry misses bad....

Bad basketball the last few minutes, Curry is hurting his team more than helping right now.

Also, why bring up Pippen when LeBron had Wade and Irving? Jordan didn't do this because he never went to a Game 7 in the Finals.
