Reply to comment by Rcj1221 in KD to the Suns by Bigpie0u812

I mean, Lebrun is the exact same.

That’s why guys like Curry or Tim Duncan are so great.

I’ve never been a Lebron fan, but he did at least make finals appearances with Cleveland on his own. He left because ownership was terrible and refused to get people around him. Steph and Duncan never had that issue because they had excellent coaching and team management. That’s not to say Lebron didn’t chase some hardware, only that he’s nowhere near as bad about it as KD who has had super teams his whole career and only won when he wasn’t the man. Also, he sided against Harden twice and I hope he continues to get what he deserves.

I only feel for CP3 who will likely never win a ring.

Lebron didn't just make finals appearances with Cleveland, he won them a championship during his second stint. Against one of the greatest NBA dynasties of modern times. That city hand't had a 'ship in any sport for decades.

I left that out because that was after the "Big 3" in Miami, AND included Kyrie/Kevin Love who were both superstars in their own right. His second stint in Cleveland is also widely considered a "super team". His start at Cleveland, however, was JUST him, with no debate around it.

Fuck CP3. I hope that nut punching flopper never even gets a ring in his cracker jacks and only gets shitty temporary tattoos of C Level he-man villains. No Skeletor, No Hordak, Hell not even Beast-Man. I mean only Stinkor and below

There's a very short list of Hall of Fame level players with no rings. CP3 will undoubtedly be near the top of that list with Allen Iverson, Steve Nash, and Malone, and he's not nearly the piece of shit Malone is.

Umm. KD literally played and won championships with Curry 🤣

And Lebron drug multiple teams that would be under .500 without him to the finals for years.

But that was just one stop with KD, this is what his fourth team. And the rest of the Warriors core was drafted by themselves.

Not Iggy, but I mostly agree. Just was saying that some of those rings wouldn’t have happened for Curry without KD.
