NBA Finals

You don't see the accomplishment? How about having to get through the entire Western Conference playoffs just to get to the Finals. Lebron did an amazing job leading a depleted team to the Finals, one of the best (probably THE best) playoff performance by a single player. But if Cleveland is in the West, Lebron doesn't get to the Finals.
That's the playoffs, I'm talking about the finals. Since Jordan retired, the West has been the toughest division in the league.

You play the hand you're dealt. With the Cleveland roster in the finals, I'd be more impressed by Golden State if the had swept the series. Letting Bron Bron by himself beat them twice makes it all seem "meh" to me.
 
You're kidding right? Dirk had Shawn Marion, Jason Kidd, Jason Terry, and Tyson Chandler. LeBron doesn't have anyone near those guys.

Which is why I said what Lebron did was probably the best playoff performance ever. You just can't take that away from Golden State and say what they did wasn't impressive. Like you said, deal the hand your dealt.

Yes, and sometimes that hand is pocket aces: you're supposed to do a lot with a hand like that.

Not impressed.
 
Winning a league championship is so easy. Our 2010 championship doesn't count since we were playing a .500 team in the CCG.
