at the end of the day though, despite his insecurities, he still got what he wanted. got the ring (soon to be rings) and the money. he could shitpost all day on his real account and nobody would be able to say a thing

Except that everything points to the fact that he's so inscure and hates how nobody sees it as an achievement.
Evidenced by stuff like fake twitter accounts, change in behaviour and such.

And I think he realized he'll never get that stigma off. And it's getting to him.
Just look at the last two games, until Curry and Thompson started hitting and taking the game over, he was terrible on both ends.

Who cares how he acts? The results speak for themselves.

Well, apparently he does.
Remember that earlier this season he was exposed with fake twitter accounts.
He's literally a guy who has hunderds of millions and he's so mentally weak that he had to make fake twitter accounts and defend himself by commenting on various stuff.

It doesn't get any worse than that.

He wants to create some tough, alpha guy persona, but throughout his whole career he's been a bitch.
Skill and talent aside, he simply can't be a leader even when he's the best player on his team. And that's what gets to him these days.

So? Guy wants a ring. GSW gave him the best chance at one.

The problem is that he acts as if he accomplished something huge.
They already won without him and probably would win some more titles.

He was always a nice guy during his OKC days.
Then he comes to GSW and starts acting like some tough guy, just this season he was like top5 in technical fouls and ejections. Constantly jawing at referees with his buddy Draymond.
Luckily for him, the league is soft these days. If he acted like this even 10 years ago, someone would've levelled him for sure.

They had a chance to be a lot better before LeBron, after LeBron left, and will have the chance to be a lot better after LeBron leaves.

Will they be a lot better, though? I doubt it.

Before drafting Lebron, they tanked after the fairly successful 90s where they couldn't get past Jordan, like everyone else in the east.

During his first run in Cavs, they made some terrible moves, agreed.
After he left, the only option was tanking. Made some good picks except for that Bennett fiasco.
And now, when he leaves again, they have to tank again because nobody in this world would take his buddies' contracts.
And he always leaves teams in uncertainty. He could've said he's staying/leaving a year ago.

Mostly his, because he's always so passive-aggressive and would never accept a proper coach or game plan.

The Cavs were a dumpster fire before LeBron was drafted, after LeBron left, and will be a dumpster fire after LeBron leaves again/retires.

But they had a chance to be a lot better if he actually allowed them to make some reasonable trades.

Them keeping Brooklyn's pick was the first sign of life from the front office in years.

Lebron is already the GOAT. Jordan wouldn't have been able to repeatedly carry such a shit team as Lebron has.

To be fair LeBron wouldn't be able to do such a thing in the West. The East is garbage and has been for a long time.

I don't think Jordan would be able to do it if he was in the same position as Lebron is right now. Let's face it, the Cavs are a dumpster fire and the only reason they've made it past the 1st round in the past is because of Lebron.

I see Lebron winning just as many championships with the Bulls if he replaced Jordan there as well.

And who's fault is it that Cavs are a dumpster fire?
Jordan always argued with Bulls front office but they never caved to his demands.
And he had a proper coach.

Lebron basically fired Blatt himself, got Shumpert, TT and JR huge contracts, drove Kyrie out, then traded half of the team mid-season because he didn't like IT.

True, it's amazing that he willed this terrible team to the finals again, but who's fault is it that they're a terrible team? Mostly his, because he's always so passive-aggressive and would never accept a proper coach or game plan.
When he's not on the court, they're completely lost. Not because they're that terrible, but because he's the whole system.

Btw, some of the Jordan's best series, to put things into perspective:

vs. Boston, 1986(Arguably the GOAT Boston team) - 43.7 pts/6.3 reb/5.7 ast/2.3 stl/1.3 blk/51% FG

vs. Cavs, 1988 - 45.2 pts/5.4 reb/4.8 ast/2+ stl/1+ blk/56% FG (back-to-back games of 50+)

vs. Philly, 1990 - 43.0 pts/6.6 reb/7.4 ast/3 stl/1+ blk/55+% FG (3 consecutive 45+ point games - 45,49,45)

vs. Lakers, 1991 - 31.2 pts/6.6 reb/11.4 ast/2.8 stl/1.4 blk/56% FG

vs. Miami, 1992 - 45.0 pts/9.7 reb/6.7 ast/3 stl/1 blk/61% FG

vs. Phoenix, 1993 - 41.0 pts/8.5 reb/6.3 ast/2 stl/1 blk/51% FG

vs. Bullets, 1997 - 37.3 pts/5.7 reb/5.3 ast/1 stl/57% FG

Durant is free to do what he wants. Anyone who feels "oh he should stay because loyalty" is delusional. It's not about the money; guy already has plenty of money to retire on. But all that money wouldn't mean as much without a ring.

Nobody is blaming him for leaving that lunatic Westbrook.
The issue is that there were like 5-6 teams with great offers for him and he would certainly make them contenders.
And he chose the team that he just lost against while having a monumental choke in g6 and g7.

He got his ring, but in 20 years everyone's going to think of him as the biggest bitch in history of the league and there's nothing he can do to change that.

Yeah, compare the East back then and now.
Celtics, Pistons, Cavs, Knicks, Magic were all miles ahead anything in the east ever since Howard left and Rose got injured. Celtics had 1 year in them and that was it.
The only great team he went against were Pacers, but he had a superteam of his own back then.

Interesting stat I read the other day: Ever since 2014, the only player from the East that got 1st team all-NBA selection was Joakhim fucking Noah. Says a lot about the conference.

Durant is a bitch

I love it how they narrate him being an all-time great but in both games he was nowhere to be found until Curry and Thompson started obliterating them. And then he scores like 10 points when they already had a comfortable lead.

If we take into account skill level and peak potential, he has to be the biggest mental midget in the history of NBA.

The first finals in like a decade I probably won't watch live (I'm in EU).

It took 7 games and Lebron playing 48mins for Cavs to beat a team led by Horford and 2 rookies, these Cavs have absolutely no chance.

Even one good half per game was enough for Warriors to beat the Rockets and Cavs are much worse in basically every position except for Lebron/Harden.

Counter-Strike

I don't notice any difference in typing speed, unless i'ts capital A maybe.

Like 80% caps 20% shift.

So, we should call people who look Asian yellow?

Unless Cavs players not named Lebron show up, not even 50 from him will be enough.
But I think it's time for the annual JR Swish game.

None, I don't think there's anything I relate so much to that I'd want it drawn on me for the rest of my life.
(mom/childern tattoos are just awnkward)

No, he's not.

For comparison, some of Jordan's best playoff series.

vs. Boston, 1986 - 43.7 pts/6.3 reb/5.7 ast/2.3 stl/1.3 blk/51% FG

vs. Cavs, 1988 - 45.2 pts/5.4 reb/4.8 ast/2+ stl/1+ blk/56% FG (back-to-back games of 50+)

vs. Miami, 1992 - 45.0 pts/9.7 reb/6.7 ast/3 stl/1 blk/61% FG

vs. Phoenix, 1993 - 41.0 pts/8.5 reb/6.3 ast/2 stl/1 blk/51% FG

vs. Bullets, 1997 - 37.3 pts/5.7 reb/5.3 ast/1 stl/57% FG

(We're talking about a game with much slower pace and way less 3s being shot.)

As for teammates/coach argument, it's his fault and it can't be an argument in his favor.
He drove Blatt out. He gave his buddies Shumpert, JR and TT terrible contract. He drove Kyrie out.

And if offensive aspect of the game is debatable, Jordan was a much better defender.

The opposition argument also comes to play.
I just read the other day that the last player from the East who got 1st all-NBA team selection except for Lebron was Noah in 2014.
That says a lot about the Eastern conference.

Don't get me wrong, he's up there right after Jordan, but he can't get the GOAT status unless he carries a team to 1-2 more rings. Especially not after 2011 and that monumental choke at the peak of his powers.

DisplayPort or bust.

There's been other, equal surprises in the world of football (soccer).

Hellas Verona won the Serie A, strongest league in the world at the time, in 1985 coming straight from second division.

Kaiserslautern did the same thing in Germany in mid90s.

Greece in 2004 is also worth a shout.

Idk, single-game miracles can always happen, but huge underdogs doing it for 30+ straight games is amazing.

2016 warriors choked away a 3-1 lead.
2016 KD choked away a 3-1 lead.

Now they're by far the most stacked team in NBA history, everything except for winning it every year while they're together is not good enough.
Especially losing against a team with 7.5 man rotation.

Celtics fans are the only ones who won't be disappointed after the season ends even if they don't get to the finals.

Cavs are in a dumpster no matter what, tank commander JR is upon them for the next couple of years.

Houston will be completely crippled with that CP3 contract and he's already 33, this is probably their best shot because Sixers and the Celtics will only get stronger next year, Spurs and the other teams in the west will bounce back. Warriors have injury issues with 3 out of their 5 best players. Everything is going in their favor.

Warriors will be always seen as chokers if they don't win it.

Actually, I'd give Celtics more chances in the finals than the Cavs.
Even though those chances are really slim, they can at least try.

As we've seen in both conference finals, iso-ball is leading nowhere.
When Warriors regressed from their ball movement and just let Durant do it by himself over and over again, they lost.
Rockets also lost when Harden just isoed on every possession.
Cavs are a one-man team basically.

Fair, next.

1 is a 10/10 game, pushed PS1 to the limit.
2 is also 10/10, but it's not just a game. The overall message was so much ahead of it's time.
3 is great in every aspect, but it's just another game and it was pure fanservice after negative reaction of Raiden being the protagonist.
4 is fanservice that went too far.
PW is great and it's a shame it was so limited with PSP hardware.
GZ was the generator for the biggest hype in modern gaming history and a great value game.
V is the worst game ever.

will use biological sex as the initial determination

I really feel like idiots use this "it's biological!" argument when they really just mean "if they have a penis" or "if they have a vagina", as if that's the *only* defining biological characteristic in a living being ever.

What if someone strongly feels that *insert pronoun* is not a criminal, but still gets thrown into jail?
Enough with the special snowflake bullshit.

Sex/gender literally defines someone's supposed role in reproduction cycle.
You can't expand it because that's what gender is.

Statistics show that transgender people are at greater risk of being assaulted.

Cis people are (relatively) fine.

Until they develop technology which will actually be able to truly change someone's sex, as in being able to reproduce after the transition, they're can't truly convert.
