I have never said anything bad about Lebron. You're the tool that called Curry a pussy and accused him of quitting on his team.

I don't care what Curry does to prepare himself for the Spurs series (the only series the Warriors have any chance of losing), but it's obvious that if LeBron did the same thing that Curry did last night, the reaction would be entirely different. It's a complete double standard.

Are you arguing that if LeBron sat out a playoff game like Curry just did that for some minor injury he wouldn't get massively shit on for it and called soft/a quitter/etc.? If so, I'm not the one being stupid here.

Harden let Harrison Barnes cross him.

I disagree and I dislike lebron somewhat. Curry has legitimate ankle issues

no they arent. Other wise they would have to be considered the greatest team ever.
They won 73. Now they will either lose this round or the next or the finals so that people will forever waste time about them and the Bulls= who's the best,pointless conversations.

at some point all their jump shooting is going to go cold and Curry will roll around on the court in pain

Did people call Love a quitter? Injured is injured. Period.

Nobody gives a damn about what Kevin Love does or doesn't do.

LeBron would be crushed if he sat out a playoff game for any kind of injury and you all know it. Hell, he was crushed when severe cramps forced him to the bench for a few minutes just two years ago.

Whether he does or doesn't is really besides the point. Curry is being cast as smart/cautious for sitting out a game while if LeBron did the same he would be called soft.

mcaj22 · 04-19-2016, 01:41 PM

He's right, I remember people on this very forum crushing Lebron for sitting in that Spurs game cause the arena ran out of air conditioning for him.

vailpass · 04-19-2016, 01:41 PM

Are they getting any decent ratings for these games so far?

Well look how often lebron bitches out in things when players muscle through it. I don't blame him to much for cramp issued but the ac issue was total bitching out. Doesn't help he flops like a fish

LeBron has never once sat out a playoff game like Curry just did (and he's played hurt through many of them). Do you not see how you're proving my point about the double standard?

I understand your point but personally I wouldn't call him a bitch for sitting out a series where it's a guarantee win. Lebron doesn't help his image sometimes but he's a cool guy

Connection not understanding Curry's previous ankle issues is surprising. His hatred of the Warriors is shining through.

Curry almost went grant hill status due to his ankles .. If lebron had a recurring shoulder problem early in his career and it happened now.. I would understand sitting out
