COMPARING MJ AND LEBRON TEAMMATE PERFORMANCES IN FINALS BY BPM ��
This string takes MJ’s and Lebron’s teammates in Finals, showing the % of teammate minutes played at each BPM level (defined by Basketball Reference), weighted by MP.
So a few turnovers matter more now than the 22 straight points he scored or assisted on in the 4th quarter that even gave Miami the chance to win with Wade and Bosh on the bench? :-) [Reply]

No, it's not jsut a few turnovers.
Nobody would care about those 22 straight points if the games ends with Lebron turning the ball over 3 times in the final 2 minutes, while missing the game winning shot. [Reply]
I guess Jordan really was much better at elevating the play of his supporting cast, whereas LeBron has mostly been about chasing stats for himself and has gotten bailed out by Allen and Kyrie every time won anything. [Reply]

Followed by a string of posts today focusing on some turnovers in a game 11 years ago in what was otherwise one of the best quarters of LeBron's career on the way to a championship.
But nah, not insecure at all about MJ's place in history compared to LeBron at all. [Reply]

If only LeBron could have just told Bosh to stop being a choker in the playoffs. [Reply]

You are that faggot that starts a fight then cries when you get beat up, aren't you? [Reply]

Yes, that's quite right. Pippen was only playing at a mere all-star level by that point. He needed to wait until Pippen became one of the league's best players to actually win a title. [Reply]
