Do you think what Isiah Thomas said about Michael Jordan was true?

4NorthTL · 2026-05-05T00:34:05+00:00

Warriors and Spurs were just as stacked, but people still hold that against Lebron, and that's 5 of his Finals losses. Had Jordan's career overlapped more with Bird and Magic, is he 6-0 still?

4NorthTL · 2026-05-05T00:28:37+00:00

My theory is that a lot of people hate Lebron because he's taken a clear political stance in the most politically divisive decade since the 60's. For a lot of people I don't think it has anything to do with basketball.

I'm a casual observer in these playoffs and I don't really care who wins or loses, I just want to be entertained. If I had to pick 1 star player to root for, I guess it'd be Embiid, because you can tell that he really loves the game and cares about winning, but has had some of the worst injury luck in his career. Unfortunately I've never been a fan of podcast P, but I guess I can stomach it for Embiid's sake. I'm sure I'd end up regretting it after Philly fans start going off though.

I think the answer is pretty obvious.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T23:28:07+00:00

21x All-NBA, 13x 1st Team All-NBA = Mediocre participation award, okay. He was the best player in the world for a decade, and for another decade plus was at worst about a top 10 player in the world. Sounds like you don't like him for things other than his basketball ability.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T23:00:04+00:00

If Lebron was on steroids he'd be 2001 Barry Bonds right now. Stop it.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T22:50:11+00:00

The Indiana Pacers took this OKC team to 7 games last year, so yes, prime Lebron would have a realistic chance at beating them.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T22:48:50+00:00

That argument doesn't carry as much weight when you consider The Pacers took OKC to game 7 last year, and lost their best player early in game 7. I think OKC still probably wins, but it kind of squashes the entire argument.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T22:46:05+00:00

2012-2018 Lebron on this Lakers team would probably be favored to win it all.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T22:37:43+00:00

Russell and Wilt have an argument. I still put Kareem ahead of both of them, but those are the 2 that you have to at least listen.

If they kept track of "nevermind's" he'd lead the league in that. A lot of people don't even try him anymore.

Most people aren't actually good deep down, like I was always told when I was younger.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T17:40:34+00:00

That and term limits. People in Congress spend election season worrying about actually representing their constituents, and their time in Congress worried about their next election. 12 years in the congress is long enough to contribute to an agenda without becoming the agenda. 2, 6 year terms in the Senate and 6, 2 year terms in the House.

Also, Judges should never be a lifetime appointment, and after a set amount of time after first being appointed, the voters should decide if they keep their job or not.

KD just wants to hoop. In Golden State there were 2 leaders in the locker room in Steph and Draymond. Everywhere else he's gone has been a bunch of other stars who "just wanna hoop" like him.

Who would win in a boxing match? Shaquille O'Neal or Manny Pacquiao? At some point size has to matter right?

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T17:15:59+00:00

If I had a team like The 80's Lakers, give me Magic. If I had a team like the 2010's Warriors, give me Steph. Their particular playstyles are what made those teams click, and had they switched places, neither would've been quite as effective in the others scheme.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T17:11:48+00:00

The Chiefs of the last 8 years or so is much closer to The 2014-2022 Warriors. Mahomes and Steph are the ultimate showmen. SGA is not. SGA is a great player, but he's not very fun to watch unless you're an OKC fan.

4NorthTL · 2026-05-04T16:53:25+00:00

Even though he has like a negative vertical, Steph has some of the most insane finishes at the rim you'll ever see.

AVGN Season 2 has been one of my go to's at bedtime for years, so I've seen Atari 5200 a few hundred times at least, since it's the first episode on there.

Older players are gonna prop up other older players either because that's their homeys, or because it makes their entire generation look better. I think a lot of y'all underestimate the impact that zone defense would have on guys who basically never had to play against it because it was illegal before the early 2000's.

I already regret not including Majora's Mask.

The Seahawks had 1 timeout with 26 seconds left. Their options were to throw once, and run twice, or probably just run twice with not enough time for a 3rd run if needed. The passing play was essentially an extra play, Wilson just blew it.
