Oh well
I don't see Boston losing Game 6, and if they win....Brown should get fired and Lebron will find a new team
I'll post here what I've been posting on most of my sports forums...
I'm from Cleveland. That's obvious. And I can tell you right now that this town's spirit will be BROKEN when LeBron James leaves town. He is the anti-Kosar. While fan favorite Browns QB Bernie Kosar CHOSE to play for his hometown team, LeBron will CHOOSE to bolt. That will not only cripple our already crippled economy, but like I've said already, our spirit will be BROKEN. We'll never stop rooting for the Cleveland Browns, nor will we stop going to their games, but the Cleveland Cavaliers won't be as lucky.
I can see the Cavs moving from Cleveland in a few years if LeBron bolts. People will stop going to games because it'll hurt too much to watch how much our team will have fallen, and the sting of the hometown hero wanting out will be too much. Just like all of our sports hopes since 1964, dreams of an NBA Championship will go up in smoke...

Can we stop doing this?
No one said anything about Lebron being better than Kobe or vice versa.
Lebron a phenomenal talent. He's a prick, but he's still a beast.
Can you imagine how bad the Cavs would be without Lebron (probably will see next season)? Mike Brown would actually have to coach the team.

Listen to all the experts who proclaim the King better than Kobe
Doin what. My brother can voice his opinion like any here my friend
I wouldn't say he's a prick, but I agree he's a talent, just not on Kobe's lvl
The Cavs will prolly b in that situation if they lose Game 6

"Experts" say a lot of things, including the opposite of what you just stated. We both know that holds little to no weight.
Just sayin' the comparisons between Lebron and Kobe are getting old.
I'm aware of the freedom of speech. I do practice it. And mine is that no one cares about Kobe compared to Lebron. Or at least they shouldn't. When did I say he couldn't express his thoughts, even if I disagree?
If anything it seems like I'm being asked not to voice mine.
I can appreciate you sticking up for blood, but I got brothers too. And me personally, I call 'em out when they say or do something foolish.
Their style of play are nothing alike. It's like comparing apples and oranges.
And let me ask this; who does Lebron have that can shoulder the burden? Jamison? Shaq? Mo? Let's be honest, not the best starting line-up when you remove Lebron from the picture.
Kobe's got Gasol, Bynum, Artest, Fisher and Odom. That's daunting. Odom is their sixth man. Only the Lakers could have a line-up that nasty, where Odom would be getting (albeit plenty) back up minutes.
If history has told us anything, no player, no matter how talented, can do it alone. "How's my ass taste?" one year, Chip the next. Why? Gasol and Bynum brought their game up to the next level and honestly, the Magic were less of an obstacle in comparison to Boston the previous year.
And Lebron is a prick.
Reasons...
1. Not shaking hands after the ECF last year.
2. Confiscating footage of a posterization that would've just been one of many embarrassing videos every player has on youtube, except he made it worse by trying to hide it.
3. Dancing on the sidelines when they had it won, while the game was still in progress.
4. Claiming to be able to win the scoring title if he really, really wanted to, which may be true, but how arrogant is that?
5. I'm sure there's more... I'm tired.
And I would even go so far as to say that I don't really like his nickname, "King". It implies he's earned that moniker, and I don't think he has. He's amazing, for sure. Maybe the best (I'm sure you'll disagree, but of course you will), but how many rings does he have? Even Kobe doesn't have a nick name like that.
And since it was brought up... Lebron is 25 years of age. Back to back MVP winner. He's arguably the leagues most dominating player. He can only improve. Oh he's an *******, but he can play ball.
IMO, as of now, I'd take Lebron overall for his defense and offense. I'd take Kobe purely for being the most clutch player since Reggie Miller.
In the end though, it means nothing. One, because it's an opinion; Two, teams win games, not individuals.
I meant no disrespect towards ya Bruce. But I gotta tell ya, sometimes you make me facepalm.
Lebron has a poor attitude, so "loser" may be appropriate. A bust though? Far from it.
Anyways, good luck against the Suns. I'm sure the Lakers will return the Finals.
I haven't said u couldn't voice ur opinion. U and I have been having fun since last year with our teams. It might b an old topic to some, but us Kobe fans get tired of all the King talk
Cleveland spent $ to help their team and its not another's organization fault if they can't produce. They have had the best record the last two years
I agree with u, no player can win it all by himself
I'll stick to my assessment about him not being a prick....Immature is a better word
Kobe is the Black Mamba and rightly so. He wants to take the last shot, he knows when winning is near and he rises to the occasion. Fine example of Lebron not doin that last nite. Until Lebron can do that, he's not the best IMO
I said in our comic forum, he's an amazing talent
I know u didn't no disrespect, but as a brother I make sure Markie is having fun here. He's a big boy, but I am bigger
😂
Best to the Magic also. Yall are 8-0. Maybe a rematch between ur Magic and my Lakers
🙂

I feel you.
Though, last nights game alone is a bad assessment of Lebron's ability to close, though like I said, Kobe is the most clutch and there isn't a comparison in that regard.
I still think the guy is a prick. Though while you guys (Laker fans) deal with the best in the league debate, the Magic and Cavs are EC rivals and went to war last year. So I probably am a bit more begrudging towards the guy.
I'm a member on the Orlando Magic forum and as such, I hear shit from dumbass Cavs fans all the time. Trolls are as abundant as the bandwagoners there.
Hell, some Cavs fans actually carry a good head on their shoulders and rather post on our forum because they can't deal with the monumental levels of stupidity from their forum (CavsFanatic).
Imagine having to hear how great Lebron is all the time (those sport science break downs kill me) while being slept on by so many analyst. It gets to you. So to me, the Kobe/Lebron thing, I just scoff at it. I just don't care. You know?
But yeah, my man. Rematch.
May the best team win.
Very good read here about Lebron.
It really encompasses everything about this guy and everything surrounding him. Including the inevitable collapse of Cleveland's economy when and if he leaves.
CLEVELAND – This isn’t important enough to LeBron James(notes). That’s the uncompromising, unconquerable truth. Everything has come too easy to him, and he still doesn’t believe that winning championships takes a consuming, obsessive desire that borders on the maniacal. He is chasing high school and college kids on recruiting trips for his fledgling marketing company, medicating his insecurities with unending and unfolding free-agent dramas.James is chasing Warren Buffett and Jay-Z the way he should be chasing Russell and Jordan and Bryant. He wants CEOs to bow before him, engage him as though he is a contemporary on the frontlines of industry. Only, the truth of the matter is, he’s a singular talent who’s going to watch his playoff failures start to chip away at the thing that seems to matter most to him: his marketability and magnetism.
