LeBron owes Ray Allen a six pack of beer for that dagger 3!

Chris Bosh flexing and celebrating was hilarious...as was Miami turning on him at halftime. Way to go guys!

Lets not get crazy now. LeBron is the best since Jordan, but after this series, it is clear he will never surpass Jordan.

I'm totally ok with Bosh celebrating. After being abused by Duncan all game in the paint, he ended up having critical and clutch rebounds and blocks that won us the game. He is beat on and trashed constantly by the media and fans, he deserves a little bit of celebrating.

I would have to disagree with you and say that Kobe is the best since Jordan.

I'm still reeling from that game though. Not even a Spurs fan, but I just feel bad for them. 7 seconds!!!

Hoping Godzilla emerges from the Atlantic ocean and accidentally stomps all over the stadium tomorrow night if the Heat win

Obviously, you're not from Cleveland...

I don't hate the entire team, city or coaches, just a "certain" player. All-in-all, it's been a good series, but you know who I am rooting for

Same here, the trophy was being polished right next to the entrance way to the court, security increased. Champagne was delivered to Spurs locker room...

James beats him in virtually every statistical category including clutch shots. All except rings. Cause Robert Horry is the GOAT!

Miami probably would've won already if Wade and James stopped whining at the referees after every 'blown' call and hustled back on defense

Oh gawd that is so true. The complaining is way too much. I can't say the Heat are lazy, but its really obvious that the Spurs always get back on D, fast. They don't really take many possessions off like the Heat do.

Game 7 MUFUCKAS!!!!! Mines ish on record.

Kobe not a leader?? are you kidding?? he led the Lakers to 3 straight finals WITHOUT SHAQ and won 2 of them.

Kobe a terrible teammate?? He averages 27 5 5 throughout most of his career.

Kobe a ball hog?? Yeah he "used" to be...but Kobe has been a much more mature player the last 5 years or so.

Kobe has terrible shooting stats?? Yeah, the man shoots the ball a lot but i think his FG is 45% and his FT is 83%. Thats not "terrible" if you ask me. Jeremy Lin's FG% is the definition of terrible.

Kobe got gifted 3 rings by Shaq?? Wow, I guess the 27-30 points Kobe averaged in the playoffs during that 3-peat had no affect on the outcome of any of those rings. I've said this probably a million times in my lifetime. Shaq couldn't have won without Kobe and Kobe couldn't have won without Shaq (that's why its called a team). Go back and watch the tapes my friend you will see that Shaq was benched a lot during the 4th quarter of playoff games because of the "Hack a Shaq" rule.

Kobe is closer to Carmelo than Jordan?? Is this real...? You just critizied Kobe's terrible shooting...here is a little stat i thought you might like to know. Kobe and Carmelo both shoot .45% FG throughout their whole career BUT......Kobe shoots 83% FT. Carmelo shoots 80% FT.

Here is more details on Kobe vs Carmelo....
Career averages for Kobe Bryant:
25 points (this is considering he sat on the bench his first 2 years)
5 assists
5 rebounds
1.5 steals

Career averages for Carmelo Anthony:
25 points
3 assists
6 rebounds
1 steal

Lebron might have a better clutch shot % but if you ask 100 non bias people who is more clutch Lebron or Kobe...I guarantee you 90% would say Kobe.

Please shed more light as to why LeBron is closer to Jordan than Kobe? Just because he has better stats? If that is the case then Wilt Chamberlin is the GOAT. Kobe has won 5/7 NBA FINALS! LeBron has won 1/3 (swept in 1st finals by the Spurs) and has 1 pending tomorrow so it could either be 1/4 or 2/4. Even if he wins this one Kobe has done way more than Lebron at this point to be recognized as the closest player to MJ. LeBron has the POTENTIAL to be the next best thing since Jordan but at this stage in his career he can not top Kobe. When his career is finished then we will have a better comparison.

^ you lost me at used to be a ball hog. As a Los Angelean I saw many a game where Kobe shot his team OUT of a game because he couldn't trust Dwight, and Pau was hurt.

SAmilitaryman · 06-19-2013, 05:30 PM

Living in San Antonio I wish basketball was over. God I hate basketball and this town has nothing but the spurs so add in a ton of morons and the spurs winning and i have been sitting at home scared to go out since the playoffs started for fear of drunk stupid morons on the road.
