When Magic said that Kobe was the greatest Laker of all time.

 

Magic says a lot of ish that he doesn't really mean.

Magic is actually a nice person. He doesn't feel the need to belittle his successors like MJ. But he doesn't really believe that. Steve Yzerman just came out and said Toews is better than he was. But the truth is he isn't.

 

yep

Big Shot Rob is the man. 

 

Uhh no. They got to the Finals. DC hasn't escaped round two since 1998. The Indians had been to the World Series 2x in the 90s by 1998. We have it the worst, period.

 

Cleveland is probably the cream of the crop of a cursed city of sports. For that, they have my sympathy. 

 

Tough blow to Kyrie.

 

 

This was in the paper yesterday. Most cursed sports city

 

Cleveland is first, Washington is 5th.

Cleveland has it far worse than DC as a sports town. They don't have a title at all in 50+ years and have a ton of heartbreaking losses and gut punches thrown in.

The Redskins alone were a dang near dynasty and dominated a decade winning 3 titles and becoming a cornerstone franchise of the NFL during that time

My dad was from Cleveland.  The big thing there is that football has been king for so long.  People talk about Washington being a football town.

 

In Cleveland, it is even worse.

 

And they were good when the Redskins were good, but only managed 2 heart breaks in the AFC championships.

 

The Indians run in the 1990s was nice for Cleveland sports fans, but I don't think it replaced the heart break of the Browns.

 

Imagine what Washington would be like if instead of those Super Bowls there were heart breaking loses in the NFC championship game.

 

That's Cleveland sports.

A lot of teams in the east suffered from a major player getting hurt in the playoffs,right? Chicago, Washington, Atlanta and Cleveland.

I get the whole "can't pile on LeBron for this" take. But, those other teams and their injuries helped the teams they lost to. It happens.

Difference is though for those teams, no one player gets blamed when they lose.

 

Not on his level. No. Of course we hear the John Wall skeptics. Still, people don't even know what they are defending James against anymore.

 

Is it that he can't lead a team on his own? Is it that he has to go somewhere they put together a "Big 3"? Even his ads in the past have embraced him being the villain after going to Miami. Fact is that fair or not. He's going to get a harsher review.
