You know that 80s teams played....80s teams, right? Having 50 (or whatever) wins doesn't mean you are great in absolute terms. It means you are great relative to your competition. Having a lack of mega-ultra-super teams (minus the Celtics last year) doesn't inherently mean anything about the talent...

To put Russell's assists in context, he was top 20 in assists per game every year of his career, despite playing with Bob Cousy. After Cousy retired, Russell had four seasons where he was top 8 in assists in the NBA. The latter half of his career he was roughly 5 a game in an era where they were ha...

Russell, but for his rookie season when he missed much of it to captain team USA to Olympic Gold in Melbourne ALWAYS led the Celtics in MVP voting. He won it 5 times and but for that rookie season when he was 7th, was never worse than fourth. He was ALWAYS doing that despite not being the offensive ...

Everyone here knows I pick Russell. But there's nothing wrong with choosing KAJ. Russell just didn't lose, in high school (state championship), college (2 NCAA titles in 3 years at a no name college) and 11 rings in 13 NBA seasons which could have been 12 but for an injury in 58 finals. That's just ...

It isn’t a Lebron phenomenon but mostly a league wide phenomenon based on a confluence of variables.

No it isn't you retard.

I disagree with his logic honestly. You can't discredit something simply because you haven't seen it. That means your knowledge on the topic is lacking, thus your opinion holds less value. If he does his research he could still come to the same conclusion, but at least he knows more about the histo...

Everybody is playing 20 plus years now. Isn’t Chris Paul jacking up a double double in points and assists all while being 45 years old Another stupid take from Attie. LeBron is the only player left from the 2003 draft and CP3 is the only one left from the 2005 draft. Lowry and PJ Tucker are the onl...

Cartwright had already been an all star and 20 point scorer. Pretending Pippen wasn't important. Grant was miles better than Gordon and ridiculously underrated PF. BJ showed later he was an all-star.and Paxson was one of the best shooters of the era. Funny how you can twist different player's abilit...

...and BTW: No Joker, no problem. :lol: Joker won a ring with a relatively horrendous supporting cast. MJ could never...

How did you come up with just 2 wins? I come up with 2 wins in the semifinals. 4 wins in the conference finals. 4 wins in the finals ? Fwiw I am actually trying to enjoy the NBA. LeTots and Modern Era fans only care about Offensive stats, not Championships. ...and BTW: No Joker, no problem. :lol: J...

Probably why they generate over $13 Billion in annual revenue and the salary cap keeps going up and up. Moron.

Beyond stupid.

Translation: Teams are better when their superstar/s play. Yes, in the same way that having a sip of beer technically gets you more drunk, and slamming back 10 beers a night (ahem) technically gets you more drunk. Apparently, it's all or none. A 1% improvement is not materially different than a 100...

You are really denigrating the great Pets Meyers here. He was damn near as good as Jordan, so that's why there wasn't much dropoff. They also added the best player in the world outside of the NBA (Kukoc). ...and again, calling a second-round Playoff loss vs. a Championship "not much of a dropo...

Over the past 5 seasons...they're 10-20 without him.

Their front office has done a horrendous job of building around him. Part of what makes him so good is that he is very easy to build around, and they've still fucked it up.

FWIW, prior to missing these last few games, Jokic was tied for second in total deflections in the NBA behind Caruso. Not bad for a big man.

Have fun Clevey, but it really isn't troll worthy and definitely not bragging rights worthy.
