The 2020 NBA championship will always have an asterisk next to it.
That’s not how we feel about it, but with so many fans feeling that way, it seems like there will never be a truly objective view of how things went down.
Recently, some players from the Los Angeles Clippers even claimed that they didn’t take it all that seriously because they knew someone was going to play that championship down.
Other players, however, believe it’s actually the best brand of basketball the game has seen in a while.
That seems to be the case with Miami Heat’s big man, Bam Adebayo.
Talking on The OG Show with Mike Miller and Udonis Haslem, he went as far as to say that it was the hardest championship ever won (via Playmaker).
Adebayo stated that it was like being a gang member in the sense that every team chose their corner and didn’t even interact with the rest.
He claimed that they didn’t talk to anybody else, and it was just them in those rooms with their thoughts.
Also, it’s not like he was going to say anything different, as he made it to the NBA Finals that year.
Needless to say, the fans had plenty to say about that.
Oh-oh, LeBron haters won’t like this.

Here’s the thing about people that try to downplay the bubble championship; if LeBron had lost in that Finals those same people would 100% be counting it as a legitimate Finals loss.

He. Was. In. The. Finals
Are we expecting him to say anything different?

Truth be told, it’s hard to know how everybody went through that.
Multiple players mocked that narrative of them being in solitude, claiming that they were still in five-star hotels and doing what they wanted.
At the end of the day, a ring is a ring.
