The NBA Thread

Oh Jesus, they’re having a presentation and video montage in the middle of a game. Incredible scenes here…

Kareem’s on the court. Looking a bit miffed.

Game resumes after a near 10 minute delay.

Thunder lead by 5.

Expect a Lebron 50 burger.

Decent efficiency from the field tbf. Not like Kobe’s last game where he was heaving them towards the basket from every angle like Carlton Banks.

Efficiency is high when you have defense like this. Kenrich Williams didn’t even attempt to jump.

Great win for the Lakers

To think of all the hype and pressure on LeBron since he was in high school and he exceeded all expectations. He is a once in a lifetime athlete.

Jordan is still the :goat:

Nobody wants to be ‘that guy’. Also…

Jordan played against janitors and off duty firemen. Could only win with a stacked team. LeBron brought teams to the finals that had no business in the playoffs, plus led a 1-3 comeback in the finals against possibly the greatest team of all time. However, Jordan’s finals record and LeBrons choke against Dallas swing the argument the other way. A pickem for me. A pity LeBron didn’t go back to Cleveland after the Bubble Ring and lead their young team to another title.

And Lebron could win without one?

Won with Kyrie, JR Smith, Thompson and a fading Kevin Love. The Lakers roster outside of AD was nothing special either. JaVale McGee was a key man for them.

And the ones he won with Miami? Prime Wade and Bosh on his side and a lot of good role players like Battier and Chalmers.

Both Kyrie and Love were All Stars when Cleveland won.

You could say that there were more a lot more bums on the Bulls teams that Jordan led pre Rodman joining.

Ray Allen tells you to go fuck yourself.

They essentially aped what happened at the Recreation Ground, Antigua back in 1994 when Brian Lara went past Sir Gary Sobers 36 year record of 365 runs. The highest ever score in a test match. There was a full scale pitch invasion by West Indies fans. When law and order was eventually restored, the match was held up as Sir Gary was brought out onto the field to congratulate Brian Lara. I think the Prime Minister of Antigua was wheeled out too.

No sign of Sleepy Joe. He was off doing that State of the Union address.

They stopped the game back in 1984 when Abdul-Jabbar went past the previous scoring record of Wilt Chamberlain’s

An incredibly dubious character
