Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.
Also, who gives a fuck if LeBron isn't MJ... no body will ever by MJ.

Jordan was a fucking asshole douchebag of a teammate who had to be miserable to be around.

He's the GOAT, and probably always will be.

People act like it's some kind of horrible thing to be in the discussion for the 2nd best player.

You never hear this shit in Baseball or Football... nobody constantly shits on a RB because they aren't Barry Sanders or a pitcher because they aren't Sandy Koufax.

What is Stephen A. Smith talking about on ESPN right now?

Carmelo Anthony and the Miami Heat . . .

He has been saying it for a while now. I guess Lebron realizes Wade is done. Melo at this point is much better and a pure scorer. Sure he playes no D but Wade physically can't.

If Riley somehow pulls this off with or without Wade holy shit the salt here will be astronomical.

Come to Philly, Lebron!

We can sign Melo too! The hunger of the young guys would carry us over the top. Do it Lebron!!!

Oh, haha. They'd never boo that guy. He has hit too many clutch shots. Come on.

I thought it was some kind of inside joke. Anyway.

Kawhi is a great played. HOF material right there, and only 23 years old. Pippen V.2 and maybe more. We 'll see.
 
You can be sure Riley is taking out the trash this off season. Start with Chalmers.

Not much to do really. I doubt Wade and Bosh opt out and leave $20 million on the table. He's going to have to convince LeBron to weather another season (and lets be real, the east fucking sucks they could fuck around and be back in the Finals) and then reload around him with cap space in 2015. And that' assuming he does the right thing, sets nostalgia aside and kicks Wade to the curb.
 
You wrote a whole paragraph to say that you're gonna believe what you perceive athletes to be despite statistical measurements that indicate the exact opposite?

Yep. You don't think Lebron, despite solid stats, could've done more to help his team win? Then OK. I just saw a guy get an easy 31 but not really elevate his teammates play at all. Didn't see leadership either, which is also hard to reflect in a box score.

This is such a strange statement. I agree that Barry is the best, but that's not the unanimous name you hear, and Sandy Koufax doesn't even come up often as the GOAT. MJ and Gretzky are really the only 2 who stand as alone as they do as GOATs. Lebron still has a chance to challenge it.

LeBron should convince Bosh and Wade to opt-out.. then have Riley resign Bosh and Lebron.. then sign Melo leaving Wade on the outside looking in.

Wade needs to retire. He can still be great.. but only with lots of rest. It's not worth it bringing him back.. so either one more year.. or let him go.

Any more than that is going to hurt the team.

Congrats to the Spurs.. such a great team that plays team ball. Great to see.
Wade just needs to evolve his game. He has reached the point like Kobe where most drives end in a series of pump fakes followed by a kick out. If he can work on his 3pt stroke he can continue being productive with less strain on his knees. PEACE.

I can't argue against fantasy. 30/10 is pretty fucking great. What is an "easy" 31 against SA? Rest of the team was ass

Or Manning for only winning 1 Super Bowl.

NBA discussion has been reduce to Jordan comparisons and that's it. You are either better than Jordan or you suck.

Jerry Rice is easily the GOAT at his position and its not close

I think timmy has a chance, and if he does Pop probably walks. Manu already said he's coming back though.



Multiple people have said this, I guess people forget he was damn good at one point in time.

I thought that pop already said he wants to continue to coach.
