Bron prob cut him off when he found out he was gay.
Hold up
Shannon is gay?
Everybody's gay according to AMFU
I think that fans of Michael Jordan and Kobe will continue to put credence in the Skip Baylesses, Stephen A's, and talking heads. Because that's who they leaned on in the 2010's for basketball knowledge.
I think that fans of LeBron James are much more nuanced, much more knowledgeable of the game and will put credence into the Gilbert Arenases, Paul George's, and Draymonds. Because they are actively playing in the sport or around it and aren't following a script a TV producer gave to them. LeBron fans are way bigger students of the game and a lot more respectful to all time great players. And it shows in who they source information from. Notice I haven't posted any of the folks you have since my return to posting.
Yes, Paul George, Melo Anthony, Kobe etc.
Tim Duncan, Hakeem, Embiid etc...
It doesn't mean that you're the best player or have a bigger affect on the game. It simply means your offensive skillset.
To make it so old people can understand, it simply means on offense "That jive turkey can play"!
There's a direct correlation in guys who use ignore on message boards being late and behind on news. That's why you see them reposting tweets that's already been posted. People who want echo chambers are slow to evolve and aren't as open to new information as people who don't use the ignore function.
Yeah Sharpe done lost his insider access with this take. Sharpe went too far holding Lebron's coat tails against Skip over the years , but this is a bridge too damn far. Pretty sure their relationship is over.
Does Shannon realize that he is cosigning white control over Black talent and exceptionalism with this bullshit take? He is saying that Lebrin needed a white man's control
to become who he is, man fuck all that. He should let Stephen A hold that bootlicking shit. Oh well, it was a good run.Sharpe better be careful with all these ancillary , I love white people (women), slight anti pro Black slants, as of late.
Lebron didn't need the Heat, he would have found a way to win with many other franchises. I mean 2 out of 4 is just okay with that squad. Spo gets far too much credit for multiple issues over that span, and he ain't won shit after Bron left.
Lebrons biggest failure was the Dallas series. He broke down mentally, but the damn coach sure as hell didn't help. No adjustments, allowing all that information to leak, no ability to alter Dirk's post game, and losing a series lead. That shit is also on Spo and he seems to slide on that criticism.
4 Rings in 21 years is good, not great. His overall achievements in all factets of the game are just insurmountable. He is the most complete player ever, for this long.
I thought LeBron praised Miami too much in this interview, he always bugs ups Spo, Riley and the owner, but he sure as hell wasn't going to sit and allow Miami to take credit for all of his success. It's curious that Sharpe went the complete other way, for what I thought was his homeboy. He couldn't be on my team after this shit.
They will miss him when he is gone. There has never been one player to do all things so consistently over two decades.
Crazy shit though is that Jokic is coming. He won't have the defensive prowess that Lebron had for 12 years (Jokic sucks), but his rebounds, assists and most likely the all time triple double king will make for an interesting conversation in 10 years.
Something a faggut would say.
NBA FRANCHISES with more than 4 championships:
Lakers
Celtics
Bulls
Warriors
4 out of 30 franchises. Good, not great.
NBA players with Finals MVPs for 2 different franchises:
Kawhi
Kareem
LeBron
NBA players with Finals MVPs for 3 different franchises:
LeBron
Imagine averaging a near trip dub in 55 NBA Finals games with 4 chips and being considered an underachiever. "Good not great"
Reducing LeBron's NBA career to only 4 out of his 21 seasons matter is a lazy Jordan Brand argument. When you look at him in a nuanced manner you realize he's arguably the greatest Finals performer of all time. Jordan's individual Finals performances were good not great, that's why he's had to rely on the team success he had with Scottie.

Bruh finna get 50 just for shits and giggles
I'm not gone get excited it upset with my Pels until after New Year's. At that point, barring injuries, we are who we going to be
@therealjondoe Gil just clowned the Heat culture and Shay Sharpe, clips coming soon. 
Curry cooked him and now he's about to get deep fried.
Hell idc about the points I just want him to turn back the clock and give him that Jason Terry treatment
I believe that's what's gonna happen because you should never poke the bear.
Legend has it, Jason soul is still under the basket

Dem niggas straight ass.
CJ collapsed lung and B.I. turning into Street clothes 2.0 is gone hurt us
Time to make some trades Gayle

I see Pelicans fans entertaining getting rid of BI. I still remember posters crying about the Lakers giving up on him, Josh Hart, and Julius Randle to bring in LeBron & AD.
I care about the regular season as much as the players do. If I see them tapped in then I’m tapped in. But if I see them bullshittin’ and making comments like they don’t care about certain games, then I don’t care as much.
But I make sure I catch every Nuggets game I can. Had to buy league pass tho. I catch the Magic every now and again.
But yeah the NBA should start Christmas Day but we all know that’ll never happen.
Been saying it for years... Maybe they'll believe Gil tho.
What was he supposed to say?
