Yeah, it's my reasoning that's flawed. They did play the games, seven of them. The better team won. In one game, anything can happen. In a seven game series, the better team wins.
Anything you say otherwise is based in opinion, not fact. You don't like Lebron, your analysis is biased.
While you are absolutely correct, you may as well stop now. You'll never convince him that you're right and that he's wrong. He's championed a minority viewpoint, and although not correct or grounded in any basis of reality, will defend it to the death, just to be different, just to be "that guy". In case you haven't noticed, he's an attention hound, likes for people to notice him and his minority, black and white viewpoints.
He's not absolutely correct; he's wrong. Seven isn't a magic number. We're all familiar with the concept of sample size around here, and seven of anything is too small a sample to make a definitive statement like that.
This is the only point in the entire thing about which I agree with bistiza, who has surely gone off the rails again with everything else he said. This:
You'll never convince him that you're right and that he's wrong. He's championed a minority viewpoint, and although not correct or grounded in any basis of reality, will defend it to the death, just to be different, just to be "that guy".
...is absolutely correct.
ETA: Well, maybe not just to be "that guy". I think he's a true believer.
