      #NBARigged #BoycottNBA 😂😂😂 NBA just announce that they will help the Fake Inseason tournament winners to be the 7th seed next year playoffs. So even Lakers missing the playoffs or with losing records 22-60 records, Lakers would still be the 7th seed next year 😂😂😂. It's too obvious already since 2020 Bubble ring that NBA helping Lebron and now this another Fake tournament and next year Leflop/Lakers will be automatically the 7th seed for next year playoffs as the benefits of winning this fake tournament. The desperation of helping Lelfop to be in the playoffs. 2020 Fake Bubble ring, 2021 1st round exit, 2022 missed playoffs, 2023 WCF swept and 2024 fake tournament as definitely Lakers is not winning a real ring anything thats why NBA helping queen leflop.
      NBA is pushing a self-destruction. NBA fans might stop watching NBA games soon.
      Leflop/NBA knows that once Leflop die he will be forgotten easily and real NBA fans will still keep MJ Kobe as the GOATS.

    @Curtismusicaljourney 5 місяців тому +210

    Rondo's point is clear-being outside the top 5 NBA players currently and winning the In Season tournament, along with earning the MVP over the entire league during the tournament, is a significant feat. Boogie Cousins underscored this by choosing LeBron as the player he'd trust to win a crucial one-game situation, emphasizing LeBron's current prowess over past performances. This adds weight to Rondo's argument about the current impact and influence of Lebron in the league. 🏀💯

    Top 5 should also include the ability to be consistent in the Playoffs. Luka doesn't control tempo on defense, Tatum is a coin toss past 2nd round, Embiid has consistently choked. Giannis has a ring, Joker, and Bron too, they're 123 imo.

Those other guys play well during the season and put up all the numbers but win it’s time to get your team a Win, they fall short. Top 5 should be based on a combination of reg season and playoffs.

    I disagree that Bron didn’t have this last season … Bron is so great that we quickly forget what work he puts in because we be so captured by the moment. Last season before Brons foot injury, on his road to the scoring title he was BALLIN! just like this… Now you give him a early season goal to be the first to attach his name to the in season tourney, and you get to see how good he is… Bron is definitely still a beast! He’s just old and he gets tired way quicker than when he was younger…it’s a stamina issue for Bron. You often see him gasping for air, or signaling to come out the game. But when he got a goal (short burst goal) he can get the job done! … look what he did in game 4 vs Denver. He went for 40! …Bron skill is still there, it’s solely about him getting too tired and that’s just cuz he’s old with all that mileage on his body!

      One of the biggest travesties in the way lebron is critiqued is that for some reason as humans and the media, we’ve just randomly decided that he’s not allowed to get injured. Like it just doesn’t matter for him. Like MJ missed almost an entire year with his foot. Bron plays through that so we just don’t consider it an injury. Everyone else in the league gets the “well he wasn’t healthy” card except bron. Why did jordan lose to the magic embarrassingly in the 2nd rd “oh he had baseball legs”, what does that even mean??? Bron literally had an injury to his foot and carried his team past the more talented griz, past the def champs to the WCF where if we had to pick another team to win it all after Denver it’s surely the lakers!

    When you're talking about to 5 you're talking about consistency. That's why AD is never talked about in the top 5 because of his inconsistency. There is no player in the league more consistent than Lebron. He leaves his stamp on every game on both ends. And he has the stats. If Lebron had a game like Giannis in the in season tournament they'd crucify him but yet Giannis is often placed over Lebron in top 5 rankings.

    • @Marian-ng3do
      @Marian-ng3do 5 місяців тому

      He plays no defense compared to AD .. AD is more consistent than him if you take both offense/defense. He's a greatly consistent offensive player, with a great FG%, I'll give you that. But Giannis can do both much better on both ends., he's the most consistent in the league. SGA is better too, he's winning with similar talent around and has better stats. Same with Jokic, Embiid, Haliburton and even Luka. Lebron is better than Durant, on same level with Booker and Tatum. He is 100% top 10, but not top 5.

      Lebron and Jokic are the only Swiss-army-knives that can do a bit of everything. Even moreso Lebron because he can still guard 1-5 in high leverage situations. Best playmakers are Lebron & Jokic. Definitely wouldn't take Curry over Lebron you can always find a shooting specialist. Embiid is debatable not so much because he's better but because their is a glaring void at the Center position in the NBA. Most Centers are either undersized or weak/skinny and have no strength, on top not being very skilled either. Embiid & Jokic are literally the only Centers that aren't undersized or weak/skinny and actually have respectable skills.
