Now that the dust has settled can we all agree that lebrons career has been an overall disappointment and he wasn't even close to living up to the expectations? He won't even be considered top 5 all time when its all over
>>68067012
Dust has been settled for ten years, he's the biggest bust in NBA history, fucking kill yourself kid
Yes, the expectations were that he'd challenge Jordan's GOAT status. This will obviously not happen so he fell way short of matching those expectations.
>>68067051
>he's the biggest bust in NBA history
Len Bias
He'd have to win at least 5 chips to look better than Jordan at this point
He was meant to be bigger, faster, stronger and better. And incredibly well liked
lbj has been amazing and when he had a competitive team he won two chips
everything else is i don't know how basketball works: the post
To be fair, both his stints at Cleveland have been with garbage teammates
Not as bad this time around as the first, but he's demonstrating that the Era of One Man Heroball is over
>le championships are what matters meme
It's not his fault his teams are shit.

>lecucks in early 2015: Lebron deserves Executive of the Year for assembling such a great roster
>lecucks after yet another finals loss: what the fuck why are his team mates so shit
every time. He literally hand picked this roster, if they're not good enough to win then it's partially on hun,
>>68067012
Not a Lebron fan at all but you're nuts if you're saying his career has been lackluster, even when considering the lofty goals people set for him coming into the league.
By the end of his career, he'll be top 5 (perhaps 3) in just about every meaningful offensive stat both from a regular season and postseason standpoint.
The guy has been a top-2 if not top3 MVP candidate every year he's been in the league, which is really what matter given the memetastic nature of the winner of such an award on annual basis.
Knock him for rings, sure, but I still see him winning one or two more and thats more than enough to cement his all-time legacy.
Better than Jordan? Hell no, but you're all watching one of the best ever play the game right now.
>>68067012
you're a little late to the party, i think everybody considered his career a disappointment when he jumped ship and went to miami.

>Le Bias
I agree lebron is a magnificent player but ignore our bias towards his natural gifts he's a fucking choke artist almost as fraudulent as Kevin Durant
>>68071052
LeBron is great teammate and role model to the kids. Just the most likeable athlete I've ever seen. That's worth more than being like muh Jordan or Kobe.
>>68071052
Re-read his post kid
>>68071097
Curry already does this while looking like an average mulatto lanklet. Plus he's also doing it by chucking threes which any kid can do with practice
He can't take over games like Curry does.

This. I'm a huge lebron fan, and his biggest mistake was taking Kevin love as a championship player. He will have to live with that mistake for the rest of his life.
>>68070820
To be fair, 2 of his rosters have been shit/riddled with injuries. 2009 and 2015. The other 2, Mavs and Spurs, and this year, he has no excuse.
>>68071344
That was 07

>Now that the dust has settled can we all agree that lebrons career has been an overall disappointment and he wasn't even close to living up to the expectations?
are you fucking retarded? he's made it to 7 finals.
lil scrubs like chuck barkley among many others would much rather be 2-5 or 3-4 in the finals. are you fucking kidding? i forget where I am sometimes. you people are retarded most of the time. lebron has been great and is easily a top 10 player all time.
>>68070904
only smart post I read. leaving thread now
>>68071712
>making the finals from the East
>impressive
Pick 1
Kevin Love
That is all
>>68071712
>leastern conference
>implying this is in any way relevant or impressive
LMAO
2-5
>>68071097
Lebron does car commercials.
Steph does commercials related to eating healthy.
Steph is not only going to have more ships, but is a better philanthropist.
>Cavs run Lebron iso play 50 times
>every time the Warriors just triple team him
>instead of passing he still goes for the layup and gets stripped
Lebron is shit desu
>>68071052
top troll m8
9/10 there
If anything I'd say LeBron is the only prodigy to live up to his hype. They were dubbing this kid the special one and future goat since he was 14. He came into the league and averaged 20/5/5 as a rookie. He's broken every record and is the fastest to each of them too. Yeah he's lost 4 finals but he's only been the favourite twice (mavs and 2nd spurs)
>>68075891
*1st spurs
>>68076549
1st spurs was 07
>>68067012
Friendly reminder
>>68070904
Honestly not even top 10 at this point
Jordan
Kareem
Magic
Bird
Duncan
Wilt
Russell
Kobe
Robertson
Shaq
All better and that's off the top of my head
>>68077088
>Havlicek
Damn, I didn't know he had that many.

>Yeah he's lost 4 finals but he's only been the favourite twice (mavs and 2nd spurs)
I've seen this excuse multiple times on /sp/ in the last day. Is this the new pre-prepared LeBron dickrider excuse? It's fucking asanine.
>>68067012
He's just Patrick Ewing 2.0
Feel bad for him but nothing for da land
his career was sort of ruined by other stuff
>the East being total shit
>the Cavs couldnt get him any help
>the 3pt shot being worth 50% more than the 2 alters the game away from Lebrons skill set
i think the Warriors stay on top for years to come.... the 3 is the last skill to go..... Curry will be an elite shooter for 10 more years
>>68077019
Oh fuck. Yeah, my bad.

Funny thing is that this just makes Jordan & Russell that much more better.

Lebeta apologists are becoming more brain dead as the seasons go on.
