It's not even remotely as funny as purple drank. When the Heat win the chip in 5 games you'll hear the ultimate celebratory party.

The narrative of choice for sports journalists will probably be the heat were supposed to win all along.

I have obviously been on another planet, because this is the first time I've heard any of these. I will never look at Dan LeBatard the same way again. This stuff is gold.

The line about the sound Barkley's rings make is just downright cold. Damn.

Too funny. I already wanted the Heat to win, but now I will be downright pissed if they don't because I want to hear what he has in store for everybody if they get the championship.

He made an excellent point about Lebron that will not be forgotten. There's Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade giving Lebron free reign to do what he does.

There are three GMs in the league who could get their star player that kind of *help*.

... But Lebron didn't have top 4 superstars from his draft class as teammates. Like Bucher said Lebron could take 8-9 minutes off while Bosh or Wade put up numbers.

Pat Croce/Billy King couldn't do it for AI in Philly.

Very few GMs in the league could surround their superstar with that much "help".

Bird had McHale, a 3rd pick, and Parish, an 8th pick.

Magic had Worthy, a 1st pick, Abdul-Jabbar, a 1st pick, and Scott, a 4th pick.

I missed the part of NBA history that criticized them for having high pick teammates. Could you point that out to me, please?

In response to Reply # 44


  

          

I'm talking top three superstars of his draft class here. This is *almost* an unprecedented level of GMing on Riley's part. D Rose is working with what he's got.

It's real easy to say Lebron was the better player of the series even though he didn't have to do half as much work, could take long stretches off while not having to have an impact on the game all the time.

In response to Reply # 45


  

          

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/g/grantho01.html

during his peak he was good for 12-16 on better than 50 percent shooting, 10 board, a steal, and a block a night, in addition to very solid post defense. he was a little overrated, but he (familiar refrain) is better than any teammate bron had in cleveland.

In response to Reply # 41


  

          

maybe it is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things
but this is like Jordan somehow being on the same team as Olajuwon and Barkley.

there is no reasoning with dickriders.

In response to Reply # 58


  

          

If you have multiple All-Stars on your team that were high draft picks, you have help.

It has yet to be determined if Bosh or even Wade will be an HOFer. Bird had two. Jordan had two (when Rodman gets in). Magic had two.

Draft class is totally irrelevant. Talent level and production from those players is relevant.

you don't know if you have "help" until they prove it, which is what Horace, Pip, and the others had to do w/Jordan.

In response to Reply # 62


  

          

If they hadn't had proven themselves to be worth their draft pick, the stars on their squads would have truly struggled to win a title. Just like Lebron did.

The "year" of the draft class doesn't matter. You guys are upset that he is now with established stars. But when the stars are established will not be remembered in the history books if Bron wins rings. The only time that will matter is if Bron FAILS to win rings with established stars. Otherwise, he's just another leader of a cast of stars like Jordan, Bird, Magic, etc.

In response to Reply # 64


          

>he's just another leader of a cast of stars like Jordan, Bird,
>Magic, etc.

those guys were all the clear leader without question. Lebron is the better player than Wade but he's more of a co-leader of the team than was the case with any of those other guys you named.

and LOL at it not being determined yet if Wade will be a HOFer.

69. "Do you think Lebron's legacy of greatness will be asterisked?"
In response to Reply # 67


  

          

I don't think it will.

I don't disagree with what you're saying about more of a "co-leader" system than most great teams have. But I'm trying to establish that having HOFers around you does not diminish legacy, regardless of when they arrived.

Abdul-Jabbar joining the Lakers doesn't leave people today saying "Multiple MVP winner/one time champion who left to play on Magic Johnson's team." No one gives a shit, cuz rings are rings, MVPs are MVPs, and HOFers are HOFers regardless of how they got put together.

Wade has hit the lotto twice. Riley is The Godfather ... it's personal w/him. Probably has a dart board with Feel's face and 11 chips as motivation.

Has 6, all works out well w/the Heat starting THIS year, could be closing in on FEEL realllll sooonnnnnn ...
