Current Lebron = Contenders on any team you put him

[Boomerang]

I believe it's true. Put him on any NBA team right now and they are instant contenders. Lebron James is just unbelievable. He is the only player in the league we can say this about.

[DaSeba5]

Yes he's the best player in the NBA, but expect people to trash you for making this thread. Plus how many times are we going to see this thread? We all know how good LeBron is.

[Psycho]

I believe it's true. Put him on any NBA team right now and they are instant contenders. Lebron James is just unbelievable. He is the only player in the league we can say this about.

Sure, if by contenders you mean having at least a 10^-100 chance of winning the title. Nobody makes the Charlotte Bobcats a contender by themselves.

[Kingwillball]

Yes and he is the only player U can say it about as well..

[1987_Lakers]

LeBron has come to a point where he could pretty much do anything he wants on the court. You can see the control he has.

[Kingwillball]

Sure, if by contenders you mean having at least a 10^-100 chance of winning the title. Nobody makes the Charlotte Bobcats a contender by themselves.


HE can make 95% of the Teams at least a Playoff Contender.

[Boomerang]

I believe even if he is on the Bobcats, they are contenders. They will be like previous Cavs team. But the Lebron version is even better. The chances won't be as good as the Heat, but they are still contenders.

[Psycho]

HE can make 95% of the Teams at least a Playoff Contender.

Alright, I agree to this.

[pinhead]

If he played for the Suns every other team might as well go home.

[Boomerang]

HE can make 95% of the Teams at least a Playoff Contender.
What do you mean by playoff contender?
Any team he is on is instantly in the playoffs. 100%, barring injuries.

[Lebron23]

He's unbelievable.

[Psycho]

I believe even if he is on the Bobcats, they are contenders. They will be like previous Cavs team. But the Lebron version is even better. The chances won't be as good as the Heat, but they are still contenders.

Nah man. The Cavs were built for Lebron to be an ultimate one man army. Elite team defense, solid spot up shooting, Mo Williams to help create shots and play off ball. All those things let a worse Lebron lead the Cavs to a better record than the Heat with Lebron. Bobcats have very little quality to surrond Lebron with. Kemba is redundant, they are poor defensively, just nothing for Lebron to work with. They are nowhere near the Cavs with Lebron.

[KG215]

A contender to make the playoffs? Yes, everyone but maybe the Bobcats; and even then, given how awful the East is, it wouldn't surprise me if he could have them flirting with the 8-seed. But there's at least a handful teams that wouldn't just instantly be championship contenders with LeBron.

[KG215]

I believe even if he is on the Bobcats, they are contenders. They will be like previous Cavs team. But the Lebron version is even better. The chances won't be as good as the Heat, but they are still contenders.
Do you mean championship contenders or a playoff team with LeBron?

[brandonislegend]

Yes exactly why he is a little bitch for joining 2 of the top 15 players at the time.

[Boomerang]

Championship contenders. Even worst case scenario Bobcats I believe he will raise them to Cavs level, who even though did not win, was a 55+ wins contender.

He would raise Kemba Walker to the level of wade, tyrus Thomas to Bosh, and others will be great role players and just have to shoot the ball well.

[DaSeba5]

And I bet LeBron on any other team would also mean the Miami Heat's fan base would be nonexistent.

Put him on the Charlotte Bobcats in 2014 and suddenly there'll be Bobcats avatars with posters saying, "I've been down with the Bobcats since 2006! Who cares if I just joined this site on Dec 2014?! Bobcats all the way!"

Hey guys, Jordan is good because he was 6/6 in the finals with 6 FMVP. I'm willing to bet any team you put him on in the 90's would have been an instant contender.

Yeah, you're nuts. Absolutely, no way in hell, does LeBron make the current Bobcats championship contenders. There's a few other teams in the league youc an say the same thing about, but the Bobcats are the best example.

No surprise. As a Lakers fan, you should know about bandwagon fans. Happens in every sport, with every great team. Like the Cowboys in football, Man U and Barca in soccer, Yankees in baseball, etc.

[Boomerang]

We're talking about the East. All it needs is one superstar to carry the team and they will make the playoffs. Now, we have a top 6 GOAT in Lebron. I believe he can take the Bobcats to at least the semifinals.

Did you all watch the game vs the 76ers today? He took his team on his shoulder in the 4th quarter and just took over. All his teammates need to do is make sure to cut, and make shots. Any NBA players can do that.

The Heat didn't just become relevant in 2010. They've been a pretty good franchise over the years. They have a pretty good franchise and fanbase. It's just easy to call the best team's fanbase a bandwagon fan base at the time. When a team like OKC is the best in a couple of years, people will say the same thing about their fanbase.

As someone said, Lebron turns any team into a 50+ team. That is pretty close to or being a contender. If there is another legit star on that team = contenders. He has 2 now in Heat, and they are squashing the entire league. I'd imagine 1 would be enough to be a contender.

[ILLsmak]

I believe even if he is on the Bobcats, they are contenders. They will be like previous Cavs team. But the Lebron version is even better. The chances won't be as good as the Heat, but they are still contenders.

Some dude on ESPN posted an article (but I don't have insider) about how LeBron isn't at his best now, despite what people think. And I agree. I think he was better before. Like 08-10. People talk about the percentage difference, but if you take into account the fact that he was on teams where he was the only player who could create his shot, you realize how amazingly he was playing.

Does Bron make any team a contender? No. Nobody does. Role players have to be seasoned to be a contender. But he could make them a 50 win team, easily.

Lebron put up the white flag against the Cs that year.

[Greg Oden 50]

current Cavs is much weaker

[longtime lurker]

Yeah Lebron on the Suns or Charlotte would be happy to get out of the 2nd round.

[Myth]

Put him on the Lakers and may actually make the playoffs.

[I<3NBA]

Lebron himself on some teams won't make them instant contenders, but they will be in the playoffs. which is why Kobe with this Lakers team is the most embarassing to happen since the Heat lost to the Mavs.

what would also happen is that if Lebron joins any team, that team would instantly attract better players therefore making them contenders. for example, the Bobcats as is, even with Lebron would not be contenders. but Lebron's arrival would allow the team to attract better players that would make them contenders.

[Y2Gezee]

So this conclusion is made while he plays for one of the most stacked teams in history.

2) Have you ever heard of the salary cap?

[onhcetum]

Even as a long time Heat and Lebron hater, this statement is true. No one has his combination of skills, shooting, defense, and play making abilities. As great as Durant is, he's one dimensional compared to Lebron.

This is something you could have never said about Kobe. All he is... Is a scorer. He doesn't make his teammates better.

[onhcetum]

So this conclusion is made while he plays for one of the most stacked teams in history.

Its perceived as stacked because of how good Lebron is. Also, its also based on his years with the Cavs. People overrate the hell out of his teammates to undermine his impact. Outside of Bosh and Wade, the team is filled with serviceable players.

Were the Cavs stacked?

That would explain why before joining the Miami heat he has only beaten 1 team in the playoffs with a record over .500. Don't let his success in the travesty of a conference called the "eastern conference" fool you.

Lebron is a fantastic player but this shit of puttin him on any team and suddenly they're contenders? Really?

He has dominated the way he has because guarding a healthy Heat team is impossible. They overwhelm with their talent.

Yip...they dont even realize that all 3 of them have inflated efficiency...none of the big 3 in MIA are shooting lower than 52%. None of them get double often, and they all get lots of easy buckets off of each other and the floor spacing due to the 3 pt shooting of chalmers and ray allen etc. James impact on the game couldnt be any more overstated than it is right now. When you watch heat games you just see easy basket after easy basket because of what you said "overwhelming" talent.

Its perceived as stacked because of how good Lebron is. Also, its also based on his years with the Cavs. People overrate the hell out of his teammates to undermine his impact. Outside of Bosh and Wade, the team is filled with serviceable players.

Yeah it's perceived as stacked because Lebron is great, Wade is great, and Bosh is one of the best bigs in the league by far, and a great versatile offensive big.

And yes everyone else is serviceable, but quite serviceable around 3 All Star starters. 2 All Star starters signed before he made "The Decision" so he joined them. 1 of them was a NBA Finals MVP and seen as Lebron's chief rival as best player in the World. In other words...STACKED.

That would explain why before joining the Miami heat he has only beaten 1 team in the playoffs with a record over .500. Don't let his success in the travesty of a conference called the "eastern conference" fool you.

Well I didn't know that, but regardless of the their records, the teams he's beaten in the playoffs haven't great. The Pistons that year in 07 were done and just hanging on for dear life. They had turned from a defensive team to an offensive team that really was just an above average defense under Flip. But overall that was the easiest path to the Finals in NBA History...and by far.

The East is just now catching up to the West, and it's taken quite a big step this year from what it used to be.

The east hasn't caught up the west though, and i'd say it hasnt improved. THe east is worse this year than last... their are only 3 serious teams in the east this year. MIA, Pacers, Knicks, and it pains me to say that, because I'm a celtic, the east is trash. The West is by far the better conference with better parity.

Wow. Okay.



People are literally losing their minds around here.

Give props to LeBron... he made the right decision. People really are irrational, though.

Nobody wants to remember DA DECISION. Or the fact that the other players around him are good.

Since signing BIRDMAN they have only lost like 2 games.

Yes exactly why he is a little bitch for joining 2 of the top 15 players at the time.

Agreed. He should have stayed in Cleveland and tried to win titles with Mo Williams and 47 year old Shaq.

Horrible 1st post and not even remotely true. :lol

2/3 of the Heat's best players weren't even close to 100%.
