[quote="L J S A" post=305549][quote="Jack Williams" post=305546][quote="NCJohnnie" post=305545]The bottom line is the Cavs weren't coming back unless and until Draymond got suspended. As far as players not liking Steph, I always take it with a grain a salt when people say things anonymously. One thing is very clear; his teammates love him. The same can't be said about Lebron and Kyrie is a perfect example of that.[/quote]
I always hate when people say this. LeBron and kyrie combined for 82 points in the game 5 that Draymond did not play. And Draymond does not guard either of them on the floor. Kyrie could not miss that night, they weren’t losing.
And if you wanna play that game, then take away the warriors 2015 rings cause LeBron didn’t have kyrie or Kevin Love and still had a 2-1 series lead. But neither matters cause it isn’t what happened.
Also, there are tons of accounts of players that love LeBron as a teammate, tons. Kyrie wanting out had less to do with LeBron and more to do with kyrie wanting to be the main star on a team.
Call LeBron passive aggressive and all that, sure, but his teammates do love him and he’s the best player by far. No one else in the league would’ve gotten last years cavs anywhere near the finals. They are the worst team in the NBA now.[/quote]
Interesting, because all I've ever heard is that his teammates hate him. And you are revising history if you think Irving left to be the main star. He freaking wanted to kill LeBron by the end of his time there.
And Curry isn't a coach killer either. LeBron is pulling that shit again.[/quote]
It’s a real shame kyrie wanted to kill LeBron. I doubt that’s true, but I guess he wanted to stop going to the finals and and go back to winning 20 games a season, cause that’s all the cavaliers were under his leadership.
Off the top of my head I can name quite a few players who have praised LeBron as a great teammate and leader, Kevin Love, Tristan Thompson, Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh, Kyle Korver, Richard Jefferson, Udonis Haslem, Cedi Osman.
I understand why people don’t like LeBron for sure, but I don’t understand when people hate LeBron and ignore the real bad guy/dark side in the NBA, and that’s golden state
