Love or hate Lebron, you have to respect the guy for coming back despite Dan Gilbert sort of burning the bridge with that open letter after Lebron chose to play for Miami.

i think to be fair, Kyrie also gave MVP caliber performance throughout the series - i even felt he was more consistent than lebron as I felt Lebron first two games was plagued by bad decision making. Kyrie was on assassin mode the whole time. But the last 3 games - Lebron def deserve mvp.

i think the most impressive thing here is that

1. they were behind 3-1
2. their opponent was the "winningest" team of all time
3. they won AT golden state.

very impressive!

OKC must have given the Warriors that choke virus. The dubs were the better team but forcing the issue with those 3's so late in the stretch killed them.

James Jones now has 3 rings with 2 teams. I'm a Knicks (and Spurs) fan, so hopefully Jr Smith and Shump getting a ring will motivate Carmelo next year.

1. Jordan
2. Kareem
3. Lebron
4. Magic
5. Wilt
6. Russell
7. Shaq
8. Duncan
9. Bird
10. Kobe

I remember reading this thread and seeing Anthony Davis >>> LeBron. Lmao.

Kevin Durant just signed with the dubs. Bring it.

Should make it even easier for the Cavs. 🙂

Cavs sees Durant and raise them a Wade lol. The pieces are being placed for another finals rematch ha.

Warriors are so unfair bringing in Durant. MY LAKERS NEEDED HIM!

Except the team his in is literally the best or 2nd best and he got a fellow legit MVP and either the best or 2nd best player in the world and legend in the making.

Which would you pick?

Hoho, Lakers easily. Best PG, 2nd best SG and top 3 center of all time.

ha i vote them too! I was on Facebook and everyone was riding Jordan! I understand he's the GOAT and all, but the other two are just not in the same league as Lakers (Pippen, i guess u can kind of make a case for). Magic, Shaq, Kobe?? pretty unstoppable go me lol

Ha! I knew it. Of course since Jordan is the GOAT so he must win right? Pft, Jordan fanboys 😂

Watched that one already 😛

Just got back from the Celtics season opener against the Nets. We were a bit sloppy at the end but I like the newBoston lineup. Hopefully we can make the semi this year.

Lots of parity this season outside of like the top 4 teams (Clippers, Warriors, Spurs, and Cavaliers). Makes it hard to create a firm ranking system for the mid-tier teams.

Best players in the NBA right now?
