>"I’m not going to let him disrespect my legacy like

LeBron is a whiny passive-aggressive bitch but I wouldn't tolerate that fucker Charley Barkley talking shit about me all the time from a safe distance neither.

>>73970102
But Barkley didn't say anything wrong. He's a whiny nignog

>>73970103

Barkleys only job for years now is to trigger and piss off active player to get a reaction out of them for the ratings. He may be right, but just look at how this underachiever behaved throughout his whole career, he shut just shut the fuck up.

I'm absolutely not a fan of Lebron, but:

Barkley: 0 rings

Lebron: 3 rings

>>73970124
>using rings as an arguement

I guess Dennis Rodman is better than Karl Malone too huh

>>73970133

Barkleys is well-known for having a miserable work ethic as well as showing extremely trashy behaviour on the court throughtout his career. Say what you want about Lebron, but you can't say this guy isn't committed to winning and giving everything for it.

I also think it's not fair to compare Malone to Rodman, that's some apples and pears comparison- Both were elite on their respective position whereas you can say that in the comparison between Lebron and Barkley, both power forwards, Lebron definitely is better in every aspect.

>>73969901
>3 out of 4

people still argue he's better than jordan

Charles Barkley just said what everybody already thought

>>73970191
LeBron is a SF m8

>“I’m not the one who threw somebody through a window. I never spit on a kid. I never had unpaid debt in Las Vegas. I never said, ‘I’m not a role model.’ I never showed up to All-Star Weekend on Sunday because I was in Vegas all weekend partying. “All I’ve done for my entire career is represent the NBA the right way. Fourteen years, never got in trouble. Respected the game. Print that.”
>“Go watch the ’93 Finals when John Paxson hit the shot,” James said. “Barkley and Jordan were laughing and joking with each other during one of the games while somebody’s shooting a free throw. In the Finals. But, oh, nobody were friends back then.” […] “I know [Barkley] wanted to retire a long time ago, but he can’t,” James said. “He’s stuck up on that stage every week.” James then issued a challenge, of sorts. “And if this makes him want to talk to me, the schedule’s out there,” James said. “He knows every road arena I’ll be in. Don’t just come up to me at All-Star and shake my hand and smile.”
Barkley was absolutely BTFO
Damn he got sonned

It means Chuck is a massive hypocrite who knows he'll always be considered a failure in life so he lashes out on to successful others to hide his own insecurity and jealousy

Barkley needs to come out of retirement only to face Lebron in a game to win 21 in full court.

>resorting to personal attacks when discussing his profession

>>73969901
Barkley is 100% right about Lebron, and he is one of the few people in the media who doesn't give a fuck about being politically correct. And Lebron and his sensitive feelings doesn't like someone openly calling him out. The Cavs have done everything Lebron wanted to keep him happy, yet he's still bitching that he needs more help.

>>73970124
Barkley was like this also as a player. Go watch some of his interviews during his younger days. The guy was always about speaking his mind and never holding back. Lebron is just a nu-male nba player. And doesn't like being talked about in that fashion.

>>73970191
Lebron is a SF not a PF.
Barkley was also a far superior rebounder and low post scorer. Which was impressive since people forget that Barkley was a dominate power forward at only 6'5.

Lebron James is a bitch

/thread/

>>73970887
Which part refuted anything Barkley said?

>>73970887
It is funny because prime Barkley would have kicked Lebron's ass. Lebron really does love to play tough guy at times, until someone knocks him on his ass. Then he starts bitching about guys trying to hurt him on the court. Lebron wouldn't have said jack shit to 27 year old Charles Barkley and he knows it.

>Barkley played at the same time as Jordan, Bird, Magic, Malone, Ewing, Olajuwon and Robinson
>despite being lazy as fuck is still considered as one of the greatest of all time

>Lebeta doesn't really have competition, he should be the best of this era
>bust his ass out to be the best yet fans still hate him
If he played in the 90s he would be an above average player that would still be stumped by the likes of Robinson or prime Shaq

lebeta is a whiny millennial

/notmyplayer/

>>73971161
It ruins his credibility

>>73971321
no it doesn't. Charles addressed Brons horrible basketball decisions.
Basketball.
Bron attacked Charles off the court behavior which has nothing to do with his credibility as an analysis. He did this because Charles is right and there's no defense of it so he went bitch mode.

>>73970939
>hypocrite

How so?
Barkley has always owned the shit that he did. Hell he usually said the same about himself. He never tried to hide he was an asshole, unlike Lebron. Even Pat Riley basically said Lebron was two faced. The guy just likes to put on an act to hide it. Barkley never did that shit.

So, what did Barkley actually say?

Ledecline SEETHING

>>73970133
Um yes? Wtf lol.

>>73971405
Just that Lebitch keeps whining about needing better players around him, even though the Cavs have spent a fuckload of money and given him everyone he wants.

Then LeBeta fires back by pulling the race card and saying it's because he's a successful black man. I mean this nigga pulls the 'because I'm black' card IN THE FUCKING NBA?

Barkley shot over 2000 3s at 26% (more than bird, mj, kerr) at 50% team rate but complains about modern teams shooting too many 3s. He complains about modern nba is too offensive based and not defensive enough while his teams were the highest scoring teams in the league and among the worst defensively. He complains about players teaming up to win rings but he teamed up with Hakeem and Clyde as a last ditch effort to win. Every player and journalist from his era says he was lazy and partied too much but he acts like it's only a modern problem. He's completely out of touch and doesn't even watch any games that aren't on tnt and just spouts retarded facts and wants people to buy it cause he's an ex player

>>73970887
>Charles calls out LeBron for whining about players
>"He's had unpaid debts and threw someone out of a window"

wew lad. LeBron better win the finals this year.

>>73971503
All LeBron is saying is they need a backup pg like a Kirk Heinrich not a fucking superstar. Barkley questioned his competitive spirit like really nigga and you don't expect a player to fire back

>>73971535
that makes him a hypocrite, but doesnt make him wrong

>>73971601
Lebron isn't lying either. Cavs need a backup pg and chuck is acting like he's begging for another superstar when all hes asking for is a TJ McConnell type player. Chuck can say whatever he wants but LeBron doesn't just have to shutup and accept it like he has his entire career

>>73970191

>lebron committed to winning
>lost 4 of the 7 finals he's been to

Lel

>>73971535
Barkley was like 37 when he joined the Rockets. He was way past his prike. Lebron was 26 when he joined the Heat and Durant was also 26. Not really the same thing.

>>73971644
That's why I said last ditch effort cause he knew he needed a ring to not be seen as a failure. He wishes he didn't let bad management ruin his career and now lashes out at anybody who does so it justifies his horrible decisions

>>73971292
KD is better than anyone ever. How is he not competition? The dude scores as much as Jordan with much fewer shots

>>73971292
Lbj played Boston big 3, spurs dynasty x3, dirk, gs x2 (greatest regular season team of all time) but lemme guess these are all shit teams in a watered down era. It's funny how the media was saying the same thing about Jordan in the 90s that he was beating on shit compared to the 80s

>>73971653
Well you are right. Barkley played on some truly horrible 6ers teams. Yes in theory he could have left in his pr8me and joined his buddy Jordan with the Bulls. And he probably would have won like 8 titles. But players simply didn't think like this 25 years ago. That is why you rarely saw superstars jumping from team to team. That is a very recent fad.

It has upsides and downsides, burgerfriendo

>>73971848
He played the young Spurs once and got crused. The other times the Spurs were old as fuck. Same goes for Boston. They were hardly in their prime when Lebron faced them. As for the Warriors, last year their team had glaring weaknesses that most basketball fans saw. And the Cavs beat them by exploiting those weaknesses. Lue also out coached Steve Kerr in the finals.

>>73972202
when comparing two people rings isn't one because it's a team fucking game there's 14 other players to account for when obtaining a ring stupid nigger. Barkley was wayyy better than that Shemale looking faggot

>get criticized for basketball reasons
>unleash dramatic ad hominem attacks

LeBron is such a bitch, finally his carefully PR'd image of le classy socially aware superstar is starting to crack down under pressure, if you watch the Cavaliers games you'll notice his temper-tantrums at least 10 times per game. Such a piece of garbage.

LeBron wants the media to stop talking about him. He's the Drumpy of sports

What legacy does Lebron think he actually has he's one of the top 10 or 15 best ever and puts up a bunch of nice box scores for nerds to jerk off too but he has a fucking losing record in the finals, constantly choked in the playoffs before being a member of a super team and even now isn't the kind of guy who you would throw down $500 on to make a game winning shot and is most known for chasing rings, being a crybaby bitch and shitty teammate. If he doesn't have the common sense to retire as soon as his body starts breaking down he'll have 5-6 years as an average player with great court vision and knowledge of the game but jackshit else. He still can't shoot and the entirety of his greatness is based around being one of the legitimate greatest pure athletes to ever exist who can just crash straight down the lane and get fouled whenever he wants.

He'll never be everything he could have been in Cleveland because he left, the most successful time of his career will be in Miami. His only possible legacy is that everyone 20 years from now will just look back on his career and imagine how much better it could have been. So who gives a shit about his legacy he barely fucking has one.

>>73971805

LeBron leaving Cleveland for Miami made way more sense than Durant leaving OKC. The Cavs fucking sucked. The Thunder had much better talent around Durant than LeBron ever had around him in his first stint.

There's plenty of blame to go around between Durant and Westbrook for OKC blowing it.

>choking
he carried the worst roster to ever make a finals on his back in 07. 2015 he played without kyrie and love and tt was the 2nd best player and they still got 2 games off warriors. what he did in that finals in a losing effort is already legendary. also his teams were favourites only 3 times from vegas (11 against mavs, 13 against spurs, and okc was a pickem).

also using losing records in the finals is so fucking dumb like its better to lose in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd round than it is in the finals

>>73982082
