Fred McLeod broadcasts were fun as hell actually. I vividly remember him screaming "Chauncey Billups, are you INSANE?!?!?" after a clutch shot.

Jordan embraced his hair loss, rather than hiding it with a headband, getting (terrible) hair plugs, and denying on live TV that he is going bald. Can't be the GOAT if you are insecure about your own appearance.

DeimosRising posted:2012 Celtics were good. Best D in the league, took the Heat to a moderately close 7 games. Might have won if Bradley had not dislocated his shoulder. 13 Pacers were good too, also had the best D in the league and took them to 7. Might have won had Danny Granger's career not been effectively ended by his injury the previous season.

That Hawks team wasn't good SRS-wise. Boston this year was the 1st seed but their point differential made them one of the worst of all time. Also, you seriously bringing up eastern all-stars?

Fast Luck posted:Atlanta won 60 games in 14-15 and their whole team was named All-Stars. I think LeBron swept them in the ECF so now they're nto even considered good. I don't think those Hawks ever had a shot at a championship which is what he said. I think 2012 Boston could probably would beat the Thunder that year. Pacers probably don't beat the 13 Spurs but they put up a fight. If Lebron choked on a chicken wing and died the Hawks would just have been delaying their sweep one series. They were fun to watch though. edit: yall being very disrespectful to Dirk and Tyson right now and its upsetting

Im literally responding to your post where you say "The Hawks were not good SRS wise" So what you actually meant was, The Hawks were good SRS wise but bad in other ways, got it.

It forced the Heat to recognize that all of their success runs through LeBron and that he needed shooters around him. Their 3P% was just awful that series and Chalmers was the only person taking them on a regular basis.

Mavs. How the hell are the Mavs one of the times he lost? They basically shut down Lebron's ability to drive (20 fta), he didn't have his jumpshot (9/28 from 3), his bench was awful, and the Mavs shooters were lights out. Lebron is always looking for the "smart basketball play" and the Mavs knew this, so they basically exploited his AI to force him to pass to his teammates. It didn't always work. Also, that Mavs team was clutch as hell. They just took over at the end of the fourth.

it also forced lebron to be the first man to ever work out with hakeem and come out of it with a real post game so it was worth it imo

Yeah the "X center worked out with Hakeem" thing was always funny. "All you have to do is have ridiculously quick feet, superb balance, feather light touch on the ball and enough speed and strength to make your defender look like a fool" And of course Lebron fits that bill I still remember the whole "Dwight worked with Hakeem!" offseason followed by him bricking those same weak lefty hooks as before Intruder fucked around with this message at 20:52 on May 30, 2017 |

LeBron and Kobe were the only two guys to work out with Hakeem with any level of success. I remember when LeBron first started showing off post moves in that first championship run and people were all

I don't think LeBron really has post moves. He just figured out that refs aren't gonna call a foul on his pushoff when he posts then drives to the basket.
