2015-16 NBA Thread (feat. the Wives)

They were, but as I said, Jordan's best non-500 point playoff was 363 points. Since that change at best adds two games, it's not making up 138 points.

 

Curry dumps Ayesha within 12 months.

The hot/crazy matrix is tilting, not in a good way. Ain't nobody got time for that.

 

It's also flat-out incorrect.

A cursory analysis of basketball-reference.com shows Jordan had eight 500-point playoff seasons, and LeBron has had six, including this one.

 

Lies, damn lies and statistics.

 

Hey man, I got young kids. That's the NBA doing me a favor.

 

Not to belabor the point, but I don't know whose ass ESPN pulled those numbers from.

500-point playoff seasons: Jordan 8, LeBron 6.
600-point playoff seasons: Jordan 3, LeBron 2.
700-point playoff seasons: Jordan 1, LeBron 0.

Totals:
Jordan: 5,987 points in 179 games.
LeBron: 5,545 points in 198 games.

By no measure I can see are LeBron's playoff scoring numbers better than Jordan's. Not one.

 

Hater.

 

You in the dark today?

 

Their arc from "They're so likable" to "They're so annoying" is pretty much on course.

 

I was going to say last night... Maybe it's just me, but man, this has been an unsatisfying series to follow, even with it tied at 3-3. Most of the games haven't been competitive, and if you don't have a rooting interest, then Green's nutpunching and LeBron's instigating has muddied the whole thing up.

 

Kobe had 3 playoff seasons of 600+ points
Bird had 2 600+ playoff seasons and averaged a career playoff double-double

Forget Jordan, is James better than Kobe?

 

Yes.
