So if Lebron wins tonight, what person in all of sports will be under the most pressure to win now?

It will still be bron imo. Now they know OKC is problems, D.Rose coming back from injury. This winning championships aint finna get easier but harder for them.

While being hands down the MVP of the team during the regular season, during the first round, during the second round, during the conference finals and now during the finals. And he didn't even have one of those stars for a solid chunk of the playoffs.

LOL at the revisionist history. Really, no one said **@%? #$#%!% were hammering him EVERYWHERE...even his own fans booed him at home.

They may have said something during that time, during the time when he demanded a trade. But it still doesn't change the fact that it was mysteriously forgotten since then and nobody says a damn thing like it never happened. But yeah, apparently it's LeBron who is the coward of the two. At least LeBron did his time like a man in Cleveland, he didn't try to do a deal to get out and demand a trade like a %!*%%.

Kobe resigned with the Lakers long before Pau Gasol came a long.....
Nice try though.


um noooooooooooooooo he resigned in april after they already acquired gasol, signed odom, bynum and artest in february.
 
No way Melo is the most pressured. Does anyone honestly expect him to have a ring? It would be a huge deal if the Knicks even got out of the first round.

It will still be Lebron. Only speaking about the NBA though.
 
Yeah, I agree it will still be LeBron. Winning one is going to help, but he knows that if he wants to be cosidering in the same class as some of greats, he needs to get more than 1. Might not be fair, but that's how it is. I can't think of anyone in another sport that's under quite the same pressure.

Mark Sanchez is under a lot of pressure to win, especially now that Tebow is on the roster, but its not nearly the same as LeBron. Peyton Manning is going to be expected to do good things in Denver too, but he's got an excuse if things don't go great because he had to miss a whole year due to injury.

And I actually don't think Tiger's under that much pressure to win. He's been down for so long that the expectations of him are not nearly the same as they used to be.

This is a good choice.

Only thing is he has a shot every four years unlike most the other athletes that have been mentioned in here.

Also the fact that he's on a team of 11 players means he holds less responsibility. He could play like a god and the team could still lose.

Hopefully he gets it done though cause Argentina usually have enough talent in their squad 'on paper' to win a tournament.
 
Still Lebron.

think about this..that bum Lebron will have as many rings as that bum Eddie Curry. no matter what Bron does, he will NEVER accomplish what Jordan did. he may win a title, but he has yet to lead a team to a Finals appearance and win on his own merit.
 
It's still Lebron. According to him he has 7 more to go, so we'll just sit back and wait..

But really though, if Lebron wants to enter that upper echelon 1 championship is NOT enough. History will not look kindly on the move to Miami.

You mean like they were "ballin" the season before that at that very same point of the season?

Lakers' record after 46 games in the 2006-07 season, their last season before Pau: 28-18
Lakers' record after 46 games in the 2007-08 season, the last game before Pau started playing for them: 30-16

WHAT a difference! And their 06-07 season ended with a 4-1 asswhoopin by the Phoenix Suns in the first round. Just because they got off to a great start doesn't mean a DAMN thing. They would've been out in the first round just like the previous season if Pau had not come.
 
Still LeBron, but then after that it becomes KD. If he doesn't win one in 3-4 years the attention will definitely turn to him not winning one.

he actually won last week, but the championship man...he gotta win it
and also, Tiger as always
 
From a basketball standpoint, after that letter Gilbert wrote and Miami winning I'd have to say that he and the Cavs are under a lot of pressure to become contenders again.
