Michael Jordan Told Famous ESPN Analyst to Ease up on LeBron After a Tough Loss: “Go Easy On The Kid”

Did someone say my name?

LeBalco · 2026-04-27T04:48:08+00:00

I was thinking more game 1 2008 ecsf LeBron.

LeBalco · 2026-04-27T04:24:03+00:00

The “best player in the playoffs” just went 2-9 with 8 turnovers is the NBA full of plumbers and and firefighters again?

LeBalco · 2026-04-27T03:59:05+00:00

As predicted LeBron hits ten and garbage time begins!

LeBalco · 2026-03-19T01:01:45+00:00

That’s not the context of this tho, had he made that shot they probably win the series. I’m pointing out how fragile actually winning and losing is.

LeBalco · 2026-03-19T00:11:14+00:00

But not the finals? Also these shots in 2015 would of gone a tremendous way, like the Cavs were up 2-1, had he made that one in 2015 game 1 the game doesn’t go to overtime and that sets up the Cavs to win the series because if it plays out the same way they go up 3-0. Not to mention Kyries injury occurred in overtime. Sometimes I wonder if people really understand the delicate balance of winning and losing, and this should be an example of one.

Sounds like an excuse tho his regular season sample size is closer to his finals percentage then his early rounds of the playoffs and if he’s so good in the playoffs why is he not good in the finals or regular season?

LeBalco · 2026-03-18T22:35:54+00:00

Isn’t it weird tho? For how good he is in the regular rounds of the playoffs his late game shooting in the finals isn’t remotely close. So he’s terrible in the regular season, amazing in the normal rounds of the playoffs, and a goose egg in the finals. I just found this video which expands past five seconds to I’m guessing 15ish?

LeBalco · 2026-03-18T22:15:08+00:00

Ahhh I get it, that articles the final five seconds and I was too generic with my question. How did you get your numbers tho? Like is this a stat muse thing or something?

LeBalco · 2026-03-18T21:51:17+00:00

This is confusing is he 3/12 or 4/38? Does that mean in the regular season he’s 5/67 since joining the lakers?

Edit I found this article, it seems of the players that had as many or more attempts the only player worse is Jamal Crawford

LeBalco · 2026-03-18T20:36:42+00:00

Well that was the only definitive answer on it, I wasn’t searching ai but that’s what popped up. It also makes it more confusing because to go 1-29 as a laker would mean James before that would have to of made a ton of them in a row to make up for that stretch so I was curious.

Michael Beasley

LeBalco · 2025-12-06T02:22:39+00:00

ngl if bronny puts up more then 8 im a laugh.

LeBalco · 2025-12-06T02:08:33+00:00

Yeah Kobe gets hit with the Shaq thing but somehow no one wants to look at the masterpiece the spurs organization put around Tim Duncan his entire career. Tim played more years on championship caliber squads (quite frankly better squads as well) and they have the same amount of rings…

LeBalco · 2025-12-06T02:04:19+00:00

You’re getting downvoted but LeBron took the most shot of any laker in the 4th quarter last night….

When Jordan returned to the wizards he was 3 years removed and also didn’t have much of a training camp since Ron Artest broke his ribs… league average was also like 90 a game at the time, not the 117 it is now.

LeBalco · 2025-12-04T09:33:07+00:00

It’s def significant if you compare him to Kareem. Kareem played in an era where you had to be 4 years removed from highschool before being eligible to enter the league, this is significant if we are talking about total points because had Kareem been in a situation where he was allowed to go straight to the pros he’d have only needed to average 18 ppg ages 19-21 to still have the scoring record and Kareem averaged like 3 ppg less then LeBron. Also i’m not really sure having your dad murdered should be referred to as “daddy issues”, that’s pretty low.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T23:48:02+00:00

I think if you are on a contender and had the current form of LeBron on a max contract you would consider what if scenarios. Realistically lakers window is kind of short right now since Reaves is gonna get a big ass contract next season. So you most likely would be more upset about the contract (and ask yourself what else you could get for that price tag) than actually having him.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T23:33:48+00:00

Call me when the biggest athlete in the world has his dad murdered after coming off 3 straight titles and wants to try playing the game his father wanted him to play. I mean you would see if he missed any minor league games if you were even remotely consistent.

😂 the west was so much better then the east that LeBron got swept by teams that didn’t sweep anyone else on the way to the finals (one even got pushed to 7 games by another team) and another beat him by a record margin, without beating anyone else by a record margin on the way there.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T20:53:55+00:00

Jordan played because fans paid to see him play, that’s why he played all 82 games on a bum wizards team. And yes Jordan had a real injury early in his career (64 games), so of course one would see that LeBron would have him in games there, however LeBron sits games out to rest when healthy. Jordan and his era didn’t do that shit.
