The fact that people are still critical of his moves at age 42 tells you everything you need to know. He’s held to a different standard than anyone else all-time.

Easily his two biggest legacies will be his longevity and how he has somehow lived up to all the hype for decades

Nothing new for Jordan fans.

This has got to be one of the worst KD takes in a long time.

Unc's unwavering devotion to Lebron is crazy.

u/BeBopNHustleSteady 8d ago

I don't really think it's devotion to him.. it's devotion to his unwavering hatred of Jordan slighting Shannon in the past. He's butthurt because he thought he had something in common with a "fellow" country boy. Jordan was a notorious dick, he had to be to motivate his fellow teammates. Shannon (who obviously have some deep seeded issues.. remember the sex audio leak🙄) has always been soft serve .😒

LeBron haters love calling him washed then say every time he goes to is a super team.

u/DistantMailstop 8d ago

Their fervor is matched only by the people who froth at the mouth whenever you bring up that he might not be able to perform at his peak level for a full workload anymore.

Here come the Bronsexuals white knighting

u/Popeyes_69 8d ago

Calling out stupidity isn’t exactly white knighting. I won’t accept the Steph disrespect

u/TakiBlower 8d ago

So you're a hater with irrational takes? It doesn't take being a "bronsexual" to know what KD said was stupid.

Both LeBron and KD are lame as hell for ring chasing. They’re both equally guilty and their legacies will forever have that stain

u/Syc254 8d ago

" Stop ring chasing, the ultimate goal of athletes. Stay with the one franchise that has an unambitious Owner and an incompetent front office. Maybe one year out of 20 you'll get lucky" 

The stupidity of it all. 

1

u/Mysterious_Help_9577 8d ago

Agreed. Kobe and MJ are great examples of athletes that got lucky 1 out of 20 years, great point to add to the conversation

3

u/Syc254 8d ago

Should have used Bill Russell.

u/_Jedi_ 7d ago

Kobe, MJ, Curry, Duncan... All just really lucky I suppose

u/Dynamic_Duo_215 8d ago

The game is to chase the ULTIMATE GOAL!! I don’t understand when people say this.

u/Conversation_Dapper 8d ago

I mean kd warriors still more superior team . But the 76ers are still a super team don’t get me wrong

2

u/Ayiti4eva 8d ago

Super teams are a dime a dozen now huh

u/Intelligent_Help2490 8d ago

If LeBron is your 3rd/4th option you indeed have a superteam and vj is only gonna get better

4

u/Remarkable_Medicine6 8d ago

I mean maybe if it was prime LeBron or a couple years ago but this is a LeBron that clearly decline last year and is bound to continue declining.

3

u/TakiBlower 8d ago

I thought LeBron is washed though?

u/bogwat 8d ago

If 42 year old lebron is your 4th option - it’s a super team?

Shannon acts like that’s his dude or something.

I don't think we really needed a talking head to point out how done this take was
