@@wenonaman6042are you fucking slow that wpuld validate the point that altitude is a factor. Just look at home vs away record youve never played basketball nor ever been in altitude so just shut up.
The altitude advantage never made sense to me in the first place, especially in the playoffs. Aren’t both teams in the same cities for the same amount of time? Plus I can’t find any scientific studies about the effects of altitude at a mile high lol they all start at 8,000+ feet or something 🤷♂️ it’s just a built in excuse at this point
✅Kyrie demanding a trade from Cleveland without telling Lebron ✅Kyrie stood up from the authorities and not getting the jab ✅Owning to his lapses. The BostonKyrie and BrooklynKyrie is a disgrace
Kyrie has always been who he is. the media painted him bad for being real, and LeBum has always been who he is but the media has been trying to paint him something he is not
Le-excuses is getting a pass because he has so many homers on sports 🏀 debate shows 📺 Shannon/ Nick/ Perkins . No media person holds him accountable.!! 😢
Wasn't paying much attention to the Mavs vs Clippers since Kawhi's been out so much, but wow. Did not forsee a day Kyrie would take over for MVP-caliber Luka. Bro's been shooting like prime Curry to keep the Mavs in this.
@@dctalk4641he bailed Lebron ass out. Lebron always gets bailed out. He wouldn’t have won the bubble unless AD bailed his ass out. Kyrie has always been Kyrie. When Healthy, an extremely efficient scorer, very clutch, and exquisite offensive player. These takes where if a great player doesn’t win a championship he’s trash or something is wrong with them. Or it’s their fault… where does this belief come from? Do you love the game of basketball, or do you just idolize players and glaze or disrespect them based on a larger media driven narrative that you yourself have no qualifications to judge in any capacity… or you’re just a dummy.
@@princezay3608the team had losses not him. Your argument is immature and here is why. A team consists of players. Lebron is the ONLY player in NBA history to average 25 points per game in 21 seasons. Do your research. He chases down blocks, steals, assists and rebounds. NBA records prove it. So when a team loses, you have to look at each individual player and then you will see it is others that DONT contribute consistently every game. For example Davis was supposed to have 20+ rebounds like Jokic because he was the only big man. If he could do that, they were winning. Dlo, Hachimura were not consistent. Lebron is not the problem.
@@edobwoy"it's a team game but look how great LeBron is" 😂😂 no one cared about stats before you LeBron guys came along. If you watch and know basketball you know LeBron isn't the 🐐. "It's just basketball" though so who cares right🤔🤔
@@pallani8471 in public, what do they say in private funny you don't know how the world works or can't even to use your eyes a and brains a leader would say it is his fault they lost even if it was not his fault that has never been LeBum
In 21 seasons LeBron only has 1727 offensive rebounds… In 13 seasons Jordan had 1668 offensive rebounds… Anyone can stand around and get defensive rebounds, Bron’s rebounding “ability” is all predicated on lazy defensive rebounds…he’s such a fraud.
Bruh sounds like you don't have a crutch to stand on when it comes to defending Kyrie. The fact is Lebron James career achievements are way way way more superior than Kyrie iever has or ever will be. The fact is LeBron has 4 NBA championships to Kyrie one. And its just so sad Kyrie cant even win an MVP award!!!! His career achievements are abiout as flat has his theory of the earth being flat No joke Kyrie career has been disaterious!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@dctalk4641how you dissing kyrie when he's the reason bron got 4 and got cleavland 1! 😂 also the cia confirmed we live in a firmament. So do what you want with that fact. Also we've never been to the moon. No way in earth you used your God given brain and eyes, to see that video and not once question it. Like there's just no way. Then accept the excuse we don't have the technology to go back to the moon when people pressured nasa! 😂 got to be more open minded & less trusting to the powers at be. News flash they don't care about you or me!
@@dctalk4641 First, he's not your 'bruh, or your bro, or your brother. Second, tell us all what Le Bron's finals record is again, I'll help you, he's been in 10 and lost 6, that's 40%. Lets see MJ was in 6 and won 6, what percentage is that, oh yeah, 100% and tell us all who made the wining shots in the finals Led Bron won? Third, he proclaimed himself "King". Richard Petty is known as the king but he didn't name himself that, his competitors did. If you name yourself King it doesn't count, ipso facto. I'm sure you will have to look up the meaning of that one. And stop using emojis. It makes you appear to be about 12 years old.
You gotta understand what they mean by hard 😂 nobody wanted to be there they couldn't see their families for months and no fans, they didn't mean hard by the hardest competition lol they beat a Miami squad that was the same as this year n couldn't get past first round
@@shauncampbell4371 you sound like a man with no family, vacation isn't being stuck in a hotel room without the ability to see your kids my guy, wife sure say whatever you want but take me away from my kids for months I'll go crazy
LeBron is a joke. He is not a leader, he is a cry baby, never takes responsibility, and is not serious about the game; he is always about himself. I hope he leaves the Lakers and take A.D with him. Both are a disgrace to the Lakers legacy.
Come on lol. This is Kyrie Irving who thinks the world is flat. No lie. Believes every conspiracy theory. He's right in this instance only. He is a child most of the time spitting on the floor after a game at the fans...not just promoting racist movies. Try googling what happened just at Boston for goodness sake.
You guys are fucking wild. You pick one coherent statement from Kyrie after his literal lifetime of spewing bullshit he's suddenly "much more mature" than lebron lol
“Winning the first in season championship, finally breaking an embarrassing 11 game losing streak to Denver, making an insane comment like it’s only basketball to downplay Jokic being my daddy, getting dunked on by Murray last night who had only one good leg, and making the playoffs for the third time via the play in tournament. That right there made me the greatest of all time” - - LeBron James
@@leonardcann6645”bUt LaKerS pLaY in PAiNt!” Wtf do people think Jokic does more than half the time? The refs were so bias that it was oozing throughout the game.
JR Smith was on JJ Redick’s podcast and said “Kyrie was so good and dominant as a Cav that so MANY times he made Bron seem like he wasn’t on the court - like he was on the bench.” We've all witnessed Wade and AD do the same. Con Queen has Monistat cream in his bloodstream. He has MJ dreams and vaginal schemes of super-teams.
He HAD to break the record.. Liek I realistically don't even believe that he did. But outside of that he would have been the MOST DISAPPOINTINg superstar the NBA has seen!
The only clown is u with this stupid water down excuse for hating him as an nba player when really u hate him as a psrson . Mf if u don’t like him just say it and keep it pushing .
His greatness is Kyrie and Love, then Wade and the other Miami Allstars, then an uninjured AD. He's a carpet bagger always hunting great players to carry him. The league has always let him work the system to get players around him and get free trips to the hole and flop foul calls. He's not a top ten lifetime player, it's a myth.

Luka can ADMIT when he needs to pick up his game. LeBron just blames the refs after tripling the opponent's free throw attempts. LOVED Murray's "LeBron-flex" after posterizing him.
It is what it is. You live you learn. You have to take accountability in everyday choices and sayings. People hate lebron being LeBron but at the end of the day you go out their and preform like him, run up and down that court. I'm not sitting here protecting lebron its just you have to understand people were their coming from. But if we have refs and replay center for a reason, why do they add challenges for both teams not a bad idea but still.
@@Lawrence-sk8tt Someone has not watched a SINGLE Lakers game apparently. LeBron flails around the court nearly every game because a ref didn't make a call the way he wanted - DESPITE the fact that the Lakers get TWO to THREE TIMES the free throw attempts of the other teams in the league ON AVERAGE. Their last game he did the EXACT same thing, and they took THREE TIMES the free throw attempts of the Nuggets - 27 to 9.
Plot twist : not all women are like that, and some men could fit the pattern. You are right about Lebrons traits, but your generalistic treatment is out of place.
Time to stop turning a blind eye to the self-proclaimed king. Bron is amazing but will never get the respect he thinks he deserves bc he’s absolutely so full of himself. How great really are you if you have to constantly deflect blame and remind everyone how great you are all the time?
The 1997 Bulls had one of the most injury-ridden seasons that I've ever witnessed. Rodman missed 27 games. Longley missed 18 games. Kukoc missed 25 games. And Chicago still went 69-13 and won the championship.
Got beaten into submission?? He came back year after year till the Bulls beat both teams!! For me, that is not a submissive trait. Please remember that the Celtics who beat MJ and his bulls had 4 or 5 HOF and was considered one of the best teams ever assembled. Pistons had the Bad Boys in the paint to physically manhandle MJ when he drove to the paint. Yet he picked himself up and never gave up till he overcame his nemeses. Once on top, the Bulls with MJ at the helm, never gave up their dominance. This is why I consider MJ to be the GOAT. His mental and determination to win at all costs. Save for Kobe, I have not seen any player with that same intensity, disciplined mental focus and fierce determination to win.
@@papadiom9260Wow so cause MJ didn''t beat two teams full of hall of famers in the 80s with his mediocre team, when he finally does start to win he's playing plumbers? Y'all are 🤡s and calling a generation full of talented players plumbers isn't gonna rewrite history against MJ just cause y'all keep reciting it.
Kyrie played on a super team with the nets failed give them benefit of the doubt cool it was covid a lot of injuries he played on another super team with Celtics jt a 26 year old with 5 conference finals appearances and one finals appearance what was his excuse?
@@soysaucefeng4430you must’ve forgot when bron took accountability for kyrie not having any assist one of the games they played together and loss but that dosent matter right
He has potential. But sports is more than athleticism and built. The player should be mentally tough. That separates the other greats like MJ, Magic, Bird, Kobe, etc. LBJ surely is the most overrated player in NBA history.
@@mariomooreee carried them right into the off season when they needed him most. Kobe tore an Achilles and didn’t leave the court until his task was done.
@@mariomooreee If not for AD, Lakers don't make the playoffs. He was a beast in man - at both ends. He should by far lead Lakers in field goal attempts. And he would if he didn't play with that stat chaser aka Monistat Cat aka Vagisil Valor aka Massengill Masculinity aka Queen Diva.
@@mydogsnameislucy768 yeah I agree, AD dominated this series the first half in almost every game. Then they stopped feeding him in the post, instead relying on 3's and high picknrolls. They shoulda played like the 2000s lakers like they did with Shaq. But lebron can't have that happen it's his team not ADs.
I have this theory that a venn diagram with a "Lebron fans" circle and a "Trump fans" circle would be extremely overlapping. 🙂 There are just so many people who love idiots.
Look up the term "manufactured consent" but instead of a political motivated propaganda campaign, it's been a Lebron is the Goat campaign. The media been overhyping this dude since highschool and children who don't know better, never seen actual greatness, fell for the propaganda for this dude.
after watching the JJ podcat with LeBlame making excuses why they lost and blaming his teammates , at this instant he is just ruining his legacy , and i can certainly say that Mj is 100% the GOAT
you one of the best basketball analysts because you're extremely objective and don't buy into media narratives. it's hard to find someone who can think for themselves
@@mr.bread3circus I've never been a LeBron fan I know he's always used to things going his way. But I'm over hate. Hes a nice guy though no one in flesh is perfect. GOD bless you everyone
Yes I'm especially sad that I didn't watch Kobe Bryant. Seeing how good he was. Makes me sad how his life was cut short. His attitude to the game was something to behold. Really wished I could've followed his career more closely. I'm a sports fan so. I'm really grateful for RU-vid. Love watching the Podcasts.Back then when I was watching l was a Shaq(Orlando Magics)fan as Michael Jordan was retired at that time. But Jordan was something else. Watched his documentary, I think he might be the greatest sportsman of all time. But I know people have strong opinions. Enjoying it alot though. My favorite was Allen Iverson tribute to Kobe Bryant, man it touched me. Allen Iverson was also a special player from what I've seen, and sounds like a great guy.
I had to do a double take watching that in real time at the bar cause I didn't initially see it, then the replay comes on and Porter Jr. nudges him for position and he goes down like he dislocated his shoulder 😂. And here I was starting to call him AD again instead of Street Clothes during this series, cause he played 70+ regular season games, he looked like he fixed his awkward landing issues that plagued him his whole career and I was giving him props for actually staying healthy. But dayam, that boy is straight up glass with every touch
Yesterday Wright spend ten minutes on how the Lakers can come back and win this series . Can't wait until todays show and hear Wright talk about how Lebron got no help , and spend about one minute talking about why the Nuggets won .
I mean when you have someone crying abt calls all the time your not really gonna be liked and especially when they leave like a little girl after a loss just shows you the sportsmanship
Lebron had an excuse every year of his career! Imagine with every superstar we always said they didn’t have enough help or they did their job since they had good stats. I never heard of these excuses before Lebron… I can’t wait until he retires, really him and KD they are the biggest passive aggressive fake great players that should be mentioned but shouldn’t be compared to Jordan and Kobe era. KD and Bron should be a new era of buddy ball and bailing! Join other top 5 players in your draft. The non compete era!!! Bron would’ve been retired if the weight of his team was on him and not shared with two other great players.
LeCry played most of his career in soft east conf. Now when he is in west, he cant do anything because there is other good teams. LeExcuse will move back to east or take his talent to IOWA. Caitlin Clarke will carry LeBalco to chip. And we all know that LeBaby is a b*tch so its allowed.
You know the Mavs and the Nuggets, you gotta give props to them. They worked so hard to get to 1 ring. Not to mention the Luka performance situation for Dallas. In this clip from Kyrie, he was very transparent and cohesive regarding about teams, and blamed no one. They understand their weakness, they looked at it as a way to improve their chemistry. They also avoided not being too fixated on injuries and calls. Unlike LeBron’s perspective; I think his assessment regarding his situation is understandable. But they’re still excuses. But for Kyrie: If i were to compare 2010s Kyrie to 2020s Kyrie, i would say he drastically changed emotionally and mentally. He showed a lot of morals, and was intrinsic in basketball. He did not insinuate any impeccable performance over himself and put no blame on their situation. That was either trial and error or a life lesson. They totally deserve to win that. 100% no doubt.
This is by far the most level-headed take here. I just saw a whole thread of people convinced that this is why kyrie wanted out of Cleveland. Either they're too young to remember or they're trying to rewrite history. Kyrie was without a doubt more immature back then. But it's awesome to see how much he's grown. It's like he's taken the missteps of the past to make himself a better man now And I have the same take as you on LeBron too. Like a lot of the stuff he's whining about actually is admittedly true. But people are so mad by his actions that they can't admit that. But even if it's true, he's still whining. Just take the L with grace and move on
@@Lis2004-b ThatsPety makes a pretty good point, I don't understand why people still comment or trivialize your points, your also right about Luka and Kyrie. And Lebron too. Other people's opinions is an opinion, a thought makes you comment lol
I just want him to be out of the league so we stop hearing about all the social media BS of "all his failures are other peoples' faults, all his successes are 100% because of him, plus the 90s was an era were plumbers played and today it's much more competitive! He-s much better than MJ ever was" nonsense.
Yeah niggas be quick to hop on the Hating train but at the end of the day kyrie left ain't got another ring since Bron Bron got him his first ring. 😂😂😂 I bet if he plays with him again he would get another
Just let the fake goat retire. I'm so sick of his bullsht. AD's gonna turn into bron the more time he spends playing with him. AR is gonna rot in the lakers too the more he gets exposed to Bron. I feel like D'Lo is so frustrated with it all already. Poor guy. The coach is probably praying that he doesn't lose his job. Bron was good. Bron is not the GOAT. GOAT of Stat Padding and Social Media, Maybe. But on Court, and dominating? Far from it. Bron doesn't have that class. He could have but he just went a total 180 and ran straight the other way.
Problem is, if they replayed every play involving LeBron, most would be reversed. So he might as well let it go. He was right in that instance, but still...no need to throw a childish fit.
-- there was a study that showed that Denver's altitude made a difference (in all sports). So I'm going to butcher this, but the win percentage at home was like 1-2% higher, which wasn't significantly different. The altitude increased the win percentage by 3-4% higher. But LeExcuse? He lost to 2011 Mavs w/ 1 Superstar and in 2014 to old man Duncan-Ginobili-Parker....in total 6 Final losses with no altitude. If LeBron took the Kyrie post game approach, I'd respect Lebron more.
When are people going to learn that LeBron is a textbook narcissist. Learn what a narcissist really is, it's not just someone with a big ego, it's a serious personality trait and once you learn and understand them you'll see LeBron as one of the most predictable people ever because all narcissists are.
Well Kyrie ain’t going around calling himself GOAT. And Lebron hasn’t won anything without Kyrie, Wade, Bosh, AD + a team full of hand selected players and coaches… so what’s your point?
Last time I checked LBJ hadn't won a single title without at least one Superstar on his team, plus, be serious dude, who made the last shot for the Cavs to win their only title in Game 7 against the Warriors? Was it Irving or was it LeBron? WHEN YOU PRAY FOR RAIN , YOU GOTTA DEAL WITH THE MUD TOO....DENZEL WASHINGTON Meaning, you can't expect to win as a team if your teammates don't help you out, or if you don't do your job accordingly.
Lebron is an absolute joke and Anthony Davis i bet faked that shoulder injury because he knew they were going to lose so he just wanted out of game so he could have an excuse to the press and the bosses in L.A cause I bet money there is going to be some people getting let go and people getting traded and he is trying to have that excuse to try and save his career but kills me that these guys forget that there is a replay booth and we can see that A.D was not even bumped he brushed shoulders with him and acted like his shoulder was ripped out of socket. 😂😂
I got admonished in an online Lakers group for daring to suggest LeBron should get some of the blame for losing to Denver. So many Lakers fans are all about blaming Ham, D-Lo, and management. They are so scared that LeBron is going to leave and see no issue in the Lakers wasting a pick on useless Bronny to keep LeBalco around. Those are not real Lakers fans, they are LeBron fans.
