You mean the Lakers are retarded if they didn't which means The Cavilers are retarded for not getting Lebron a Team. And you'll still stuck on this ring stuff, if that's the case Robert Horry is a better player than Kobe, he has 6 if I'm not mistaken while Kobe only has 4 or 5 don't remember how many he has. But it's fun to see your Lebron hatred keep going back to the ring issue. Your point? Every person is not the same. I'll give you the best example I can to help you understand how ludicrous your comment saying Lebron was a coward was. Micheal Jordan arguably the best player the world has ever seen after he retired the first time came back to the the team he won 3 championships with where he could have went to any other team in the NBA because Every team had bids on him. HIS own choice to go back to a team he knew he'd have a higher chance of winning a championship with, and what did you know they won three straight. So again insulting Lebron for making HIS own decision to join the heat, and I restate that he and Wade said publicly they'd like to play on the same team in the NBA if they got the chance. If anything Bosh was the Odd man in that Not Lebron.

LOL did i say Robert Horry was a better player than Kobe coz he has more rings than him? hell no!!it seems you didn't get me...first of all you told me that kobe was stuck on Lakers coz he can't find a team, but seriously that wasn't the case, ludicrous? i thought majority of people knew lebron is a coward, im not the only one though, really do you think MJ felt that way? as far as i can see MJ did choose the Bulls because he felt it was home there, aside from that MJ already won 3 staright before he retires and simply is decision ain't something like Lebron....first the bulls were not really that tough that time when mike rejoins them and so the bulls decided to get Rodman after MJ joins them,, MJ carried his team from the finals already before he retires and so even if the bulls were a championship caliber that time he already won 3 peat rings, on the case of Lebron he hasn't won anything and decided to go to a powerhouse team to win a championship and could not trust himself to win alone w/o the help of wade and bosh, your love for lebron is kinda cute but still many haters hate him so accept that fact.. i will bring the ring team anyway i like coz that's the reason why Lebron was so hated by majority of BB fans

The Bulls were winning 50+ games after Jordan retired and made it to game 7 of the second round. The Bulls were plenty tough. Jordan was that extra piece that they needed. When he returned the next year, he chocked and the Bulls didn't win the Eastern Conference. It was their that the got Rodman who ended up being the defensive player of the year and filled the spot for Chicago to run triangle offense. Pippen was a high caliber player. Without Pippen, Jordan wouldn't have won and vice versa.

No one wins alone. There is Allen, Pierce, and Garnett. There is Tim Duncan, Manu Ginóbili, and Tony Parker. There was Kobe, Bynum, and Gasol. There was Dr. J, Moses Malone, and Andrew Toney. There was Magic Johnson, James Worthy, and Kareem (sometimes Byron Scott). There was Larry Bird, Kevin Mchale, and Robert Parish.

Who was the big were the top dogs at Cleveland? Mo Williams? Delonte West? Varejao? All of them are horrible players. I think LeBron is only considered a coward because the media says he is.

and Jordan should have went to orlando instead of the bulls ryt? but no he's loyal....
horrible? really? come on man, my point is, look at jordan there's no way hes the same caliber as pippen nor rodman, and he does won his hampionship long before rodman came, mo williams is a good player such as the same caliber as pip, heck even antawn jamison, simply it wasn't because of their teammates, it was just lebron's decision and the ****ing comments he made by winning some shit that makes him against the whole world, no matter what you say, haters gun hate....so live w/ that

Orlando was not the best place for him to return. Chicago was more appealing for a number of reasons. Phil Jackson was there who not only double as a good friend, but a great coach. There was already team chemistry, Scott Pippen, and they had a team that went deep into the play-offs without him. Dennis wasn't need for the first three-peat, but he was need for the second.

Mo Williams and Jamison is on the same caliber as Pippen? Please explain how they are on the same level as one of the top 50 greatest players of all time.

It's not really that you hate him, it's that your main reason for hating him is kind of shallow. Why don't you hate Michael Jordan? Is it only because he has six rings and stayed with Bulls?

haha I'm not gonna comment on the rings anymore because we're just gonna keep going around in circles. I understood you completely. You don't like Lebron because he didn't do what you and many other haters wanted him to do and stay on a crappy team where he'd be like any other the NBA greats that don't have a ring. In any case I don't know if you're watching th same playoffs from the last two years as I have because without Lebron especially this year they wouldn't even be in the finals, so yeah. I'm done, and you can keep bandwagon hating on him with the ludicrous thought process you have when it comes to basketball. ;D

I know right, Let's Go Miami (Lebron and Wade)

One thing I will say is Kd is a better closer than Lebron. Neither team plays 48 minute basketball. The Heat play the 1st half and the Thunder play the 2nd half. Winning championship is gonna come down to the 1st team that decides to play 48 minute basketball, and I hope it's Miami. ;D

Im completely neutral, im okay with eiter team winning as long as they put on a show like they did in game 2

I agree, KD is a better closer. But LeBron is a better closer than he gets credit for.

Well said Except for the last part, it should be: Lets hope they go to 7 tight games to give the neutral fan one of the best Finals ever :3
