8th Seed Never Made The Finals When LeBron Played In A “Weak Eastern Conference”

Honestly shows the flaws in players like Giannis, Embiid & Tatum who are supposed to be “the guys”

There are like two guys in this section that I think of off of the top of my head who came up with the ret@rded take that the West was weak once a certain superstar came over to the conference. One of those clowns for sure was @🔗 who also said Drummond was an all star caliber player in 2021. The other was @🔗, the man notorious for making takes so bad that the opposite always happens in the postseason.

Too much context involved to just say 8th seed in the finals = Weak conference. But troll on bro, seems that's what the section runs on now.

Not when you got a bunch of defeatist mindset fan’s saying they weren’t supposed to be there incase they lose

Fans say whatever they can to make their team look better....that's what fans do lol. Y'all be mad at fans for being unrealistic, slanted and biased lol.

Truth be told, they weren't supposed to be there. They weren't supposed to get past Giannis. But like I said CONTEXT is key. It's legit reasons why they've made it this far as an eighth seed, just like it's reasons they were an eighth seed to begin with. This is a team that's been in the conference finals 3 of the last 4 years and made it to the finals. This isn't a Washington wizards winning 36 games and just happy to make the playoffs type 8th seed.

But like I said, trolls gonna troll. Nobody wants to look deeper into things. Just run online and spew click bait.

Considering it's only the 2nd time this has happened in almost 25 years, well duh....

Facts. The Knicks did it during a lockout–shortened 50–game season as well.

Now that we’re in the championship, people acting like they had Miami going to the finals. The reality is we’ve been doubted all season and if you let them tell it, we were supposed to lose to the the Bucks, Knicks, Boston…and now Denver.

I hope you n1ggas win man

You just contradicted yourself

A team that been to the conference finals 3 of the last 4 years wasn’t supposed to be there because they didn’t play up to their potential in the regular season ?

Again, what do I have to do to get you to stop swinging from my nuts and being obssessed with me like the no life having homo you are? I've already been proven right on all the dumb sh1t ur talking. Even kaldwell pope is contributing player to a team on their way to. A win championship

It's like every morning I wake up something I said in the past get drove right and your dumb a$s comes our from under your rock tagging me somehow thinking you're making a point

I will continue to expose you, and there is nothing you can do about it.

No, that was my point....Context...

Yes, they are team that's been to the conference finals multiple times the last four years, Yes...they had a bad regular season by their standards....Were they supposed to beat a team that swept them a few years ago (Milwaukee)...No...were they supposed to beat a team that just went to the finals last season....No

Not by Vegas standards, not by most fans standards etc....

My entire point was all this sh1t is too nuanced to look at things and say "8th seed made the finals....the conference is weak"

3 chips in 15 years of stacked rosters

That narrative was always stupid as lebron last time in the east got the cavs to the finals at the 4th seed.

Here we go with the downplaying teammates. I'm talking about top 5 player anthony davis along with a top 10 player lebronnwith solid a$s player around them thatbyou admitted and now backtracking off of hick

And now backtracking.

Embarrassed again...you think you'd get sick of this

They were solid until they weren't solid.

And LA losing this year is no big deal. Bron will be back in the playoffs again, next season. Meanwhile, Jimmy Butler and the Heat has advanced, which is still a win for me, LeBron, Lakers, Heat, and a loss for you
