Angry White Dude: Just Enjoy It
You can make numbers say almost anything.
- Hank Aaron hit more home runs than Babe Ruth: 755-714.
- Aaron also played in almost 4000 more games than the Babe did.
- Barry Bonds hit more than anyone ever, but he cheated.
Great way to make a point about basketball, ain't it?
From 1985 until 1990, the Chicago Bulls and the great Michael Jordan lost. Remember that?
Here's the 1985 starting lineup for the Bulls: Jordan, Sidney Green, Kyle Macy, Jawann Oldham, and Orlando Woolridge.
Replace those houshold names with these Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, BJ Armstrong, and Bill Cartwright, and you get an NBA title and a start of a dynasty!
With the exception of his time in Miami, who in the world has helped LeBron James?
Dude simply puts the entire team and city on his back and gets them to the NBA Finals.
Can you get at least one other Hall of Famer to go to Clevleand and help? How much can you expect out of one man? Although James appears to be superhuman, he's not.
Nobody has done more with less than LeBron James. If you think MJ was the best of all time, then great. Nobody could guard MJ. But MJ could not guard Larry Bird:
We're in the midst of another NBA Finals, and who's in?
All James did last series was take a team into Boston and beat a team that was undefeated there in the playoffs.
The Cavs came back from being down in the series, 2-0, and the Celtics had never lost a series after taking a 2-0 lead.
The starting lineup for the Cavs last night?
George Hill, Jeff Green, JR Smith, Tristan Thompson, and King James.
No Kevin Love in there because dude's about has soft as they come.
If he were a boxer, his nickname would be Glass Jaw Love. Dude gets hurt at the drop of a hat.
MJ started winning when they added better players to the roster. LeBron takes journeyman players and gets to the NBA Finals. Like the young folks say:
MJ and LeBron are great. Bird, too.
Who cares who's the best ever? Just relax and enjoy.
And if the Cavs win the title, it should be viewed has one of the greatest accomplishments in sports history!
