  1. Marion was absolutely right about guys being past their prime as not “superteams” Pippen Barkley Dream Rockets. Broussard said it right too

  2. Yes.. this wasn’t a singular moment in Lebron’s career where he just melted down. The other team had a little bit to do with it… media narrative is ridiculous

  3. About time. Stop the narrative of Mavs winning a Mickey title. Two things can be true. Mavs were a unit and LBJ is also the Goat in meltdowns. Give the Mavs they credit for being mentally tougher when nobody thought they'd win. And hold LBJ accountable for melting down after being arrogant.

  4. Haha Marion speaking facts about the media and the sheep that follow the media who just want to make it about hating on Lebron in that series and no credit is given to the Mavs.

  5. Props to Marion defending his guys. They always find reasons that shows Lebron wasn't himself on that Finals. Just accept it. Lebron got locked up by that team. Trix, D-Steve, Tyson, etc. They deserve the credit, JUST GIVE IT TO THEM.

  6. Jason Terry straight up got into LeBron's head in that series. That's a fact. And even though Im not a LeBron fan I really dont like to see an opponent make it that personal especially in a playoff setting but that's just what Jason Terry did and it worked. Plus he had some great runs himself and games in that series. But Dirk was killer. A true mid range assassin ala MJ honestly. He was a bad man in that whole playoff run.

  7. Shawn needs to stop with the cap. The 2011 Mavs were not better than the 2011 Heat. The Heat went on on to win the next 2 titles back to back. Lebron just choked.

  8. I used to be at breakfast early at jr. College, and Shawn used to come and sit with me. Id see him around in the gym and he would stop and shoot with me for a minute. Great humble guy hes fired up here though. Went to some of his games he was amazing to watch flying over people in juco.

  9. Mavs beat the thunder spurs and lakers with them teams in they prime Shawn is right. MFFL

  10. The Mavs kicked the Heat’s butt period! No need to say anything about whether or not the Heat played to their potential, the Mavs played to theirs and they dominated!

  11. Amen Shawn! … Had Joe Johnson not gotten hurt (Jerry Stackhouse undercut to fracture his skull 😡) on the first Suns playoff run, they would have won multiple championships!

  12. Shawn making it’s personal and emotional we all know if bron played like he was supposed too in that series we would be having a totally different conversation right now 😭😭😭

  13. This would not be the last time that LeBron would completely collapse and check-out emotionally and mentally in a playoff series. Once teams have him figured out LeBron shows little ability to adjust and adapt, along with a lack of heart by getting swept out of the playoffs 4 straight yet again…🧹

  14. Shawn, that's the nature of the beast (the franchise builds around their superstar), it's that mad scientist cross-breeding that everyone that doesn't like team hopping hates. I agree you guys had and were the better TEAM! Miami just had the more talented individuals.

  15. As a lakers fan that was a hard L to take from the Mavs. They were a great TEAM well balanced and coached from starting 5 to last gus on the bench. Miami had their big 3 talent but Mavs were the better team they deserved thar championship and way more credit than just saying LeBron lost.

  16. I agree Shawn. That's what I say about Ray Allen. He can pop anytime he will always have Hall of Fame pedigree in him. Always!!!

  17. this dude all up in his feelings…you were underdogs and they had 3 hall of famers…that's a compliment to Dallas for winning

  18. I remember what that Mavs team did to my Lakers in the playoffs. They got swept and Dirk was killing us.

  19. I like how they were trying to hate but Shawn Marion is a grown man who wasn't hatingbut telling facts, while they were trying to generate 'real housewives of the media' type narratives. Kudos to Mr Marion

  20. A huge part of that championship run for Dallas was Tyson Chandler who would have been in OKC had their team doctor not failed him for his physical because of foot issues. You put Chandler on that OKC team and they would have been a holy hell to deal with and there's no way Dallas beats them. The Thunder would have won that championship and several more and most likely not have traded Harden. They could have won 4 or 5. True story….look it up.

  21. I am convinced that MJ is doing dudes a stipend.
    They always doing shows to reduce the LeBron effect on this era.
    But they never do any shows where someone is talking about how they kept MJ from even getting to the playoffs, never anything negative about MJ.
    God forbid anyone say one thing negative about MJ.

  22. Them same Mavs swept Kobe and the Lakers and I Think they held him to 17 Points in two games.

  23. He chewed they ass up lol yea now ion wanna hear no more Lebron choke narrative 😝😝😝
