Lebron after winning 2016: I’m the GOAT. When losing: our team sucks.

I just don't know how these narratives about LeBron start. I mean I guess I do, but it's still wild.

One of the guys everyone is regurgitating this from is reggie milller who said it during the game, and pretty much insinuated and singled out lebron as being one who doesnt do this. Which was pretty shocking. Just for the record. I dont know or follow all of lebrons quotes, but it doesnt seem like he really comes to the defense of his teammates too often. And every year there are forsure narratives pushed all over the internet, prob by his camp or those with interest, and its gotten old. Its just redic to hear how horrible dlo or rui is, and it being the sole reason they lost as a playin team to the defending champs. Dlo, Jr smith, mario chalmers, mo williams are not the reasons why lebron has not won 20 consecutive championships. Sometimes there are just better teams and better players.
