Hey you missing your cape @UnchartedDrake

 

[trynafeelmink]

He stated it was as dominant?
I can see why he'd say dominant.

He didn't say "as impressive"
He said, according to you, as dominant.
There is a difference, and within any context of dominance, can't be disrespectful.
A beat down is a beat down, Lebron is winning every year, dominating, In a sense, isn't he?

Even in that sense.. you would have to include the Finals... two Finals losses.. one where he was held to under 20 ppg with PG's guarding him... The other where he lost in 5 and his team lost by the biggest Margin of Points in finals history.... Something about those statements just don't go along with the narrative of Dominat to me.

JR Smith has been excellent these playoffs doe
I have been very impressed by his play

The whole "The East is weaker" argument is lame AF. Its a tired excuse.
Damn near every one of Jordan's championships the East was weaker than the West.

Nobody out here sayin, Jordan had an easy road to the Finals every year.

In the last 20 years...Kobe has 2, Shaq has 3, Malone has 3, Kidd has 2. If Bron loses this year that's 4 times.
