View Full Version : Where will Lebron rank in the all-time list if he wins this year as the underdog?

Pacers and OKC are the favorites this year. Both teams are more dominant than Heat. Pacers almost beat Heat last year and this year, they are better while Heat is worse. Stacked OKC just beat Heat without Westbrook. If Lebron plays phenomenal and lead his team to victory against those 2 teams, where will he rank in the all-time list? top 5?

I would put Lebron at #6 if he wins the ring and FMVP this year.

#4 if he has 4 FMVPS.
#3 if he has 5 FMVPS and #2 if he wins 6 FMVPS (both of which are highly unlikely)

The only reason the Heat were underdogs in 2012 is because people know nothing about basketball. Once Bosh came back the thunder and celtics had no chance.

Terrible troll. Heat are the favorites, even if another team is said to match up well with them or something. If you win back to back rings you are the favorite to win again like it or not, especially with an improved roster than other years (Oden, Beasley over Mike Miller).

People need to learn the meaning of underdog. Dallas in 2011 was an underdog because VERY few people saw them getting that far, let alone to the WCF.

No one is doubting Miami is going to make it to the ECF and has a chance to win it all. It's not an underdog team, I dare say that no former team that has scratched the finals in recent years is one. The only one you can argue that would have been would have been Dallas the following year because they pretty much blew up their entire championship team. The Heat lost very little and gained quite a bit.

Someone that has been carried in a few games by Bosh this season cannot be considered an underdog, yes the Pacers have a huge chance to beat them, but they are the defending champions, you still have Bosh, Wade, Allen, Beasley, Chalmers, Battier, Oden, and LeBald

What excuses? It's called observation. Miami just does not look impressive this season. They can't defend, can't rebound and come plaoff time, only 2 of their key rotation players will be south of 30 years old. They are getting absolutely nothing from their older players.

A team is the favorite ONLY when it's favored to win by the majority. The majority wouldn't pick Miami over Pacers or a healthy Thunder team if the playoffs started today. Of course, lot could change from now till season's end, but I don't have high hopes.

How can anyone say the Heat aren't underdogs? Let's briefly go down the roster

Chalmers - worst starting point guard in the league
Wade - Old, injured, and sits out every 3rd game
Lebron - no longer the game's best player
Bosh - Soft, can't rebound, and afraid the bang in the post with the big boys
Battier - doesn't belong in the NBA anymore
Haslem - doesn't belong in the NBA anymore
Allen - Washed up and totally useless. Doesn't hit open shots, can't defend, and turns the ball over when trying to create off the dribble. :facepalm

Taking nothing away from the man, but the 2011 squad, though massive underdogs was a pretty good team all around, and Dirk made it a champion.

Where do you get "garbage" out of my response?

I simply said it's annoying hearing Lebron fans bitch and moan about the current team. They are really ****ing good and have 3 legit all nba players....along with solid depth and role players.

I never said Dirk played with garbage...just that I'd take the current Heat over any team Dirk ever had in order to win it all.

Apologies. I agree, Lebron can win it with this team and the excuses are stupid. It won't be easy, but no ship ever is. Anyway, Kobetards have riled me up today, and I'm somewhat salty. Also your boy and team is largely responsible for the worst moments of my favorite player's entire career, so I'm not the most objective.

Lebron stans are so annoying now.

Downplaying a team that would likely be the best team many great would have ever played on.

As a Dirk fan, it's just ****ing annoying. Please give peak Dirk a team like the current Miami Heat in terms of talent. Please...

Please give Dirk a combo like Wade/Bosh over Terry/Howard...:facepalm
You do realize Wade is DONE don't you? :facepalm
So sick of people acting as if Wade is still 2006 Wade, or even 2011 Wade. The dude averaged less than 16 ppg in the playoffs last year! That is pathetic for a supposed superstar. Only Wade could play so poorly and still get praised for being an elite NBA player. :coleman:

21/5/5 on 52% in the RS. Got hurt in the playoffs and still put up 20/4/4 in the Finals.

He's currently putting up 18/5/5 on 54%. That, with Bosh's 19/6 should be more than enough help for LeBron to win the ring.

Except we know Wade's current numbers will drop in the playoffs when he has to face elite defenses every night. There is ZERO reason to expect Wade to be healthy come playoff time, so I expect his playoff production to be similar to last year's if not worse. And as a Heat fan you should know that Bosh can't be counted on, dude scored 0 points in the biggest game of his career. :facepalm
I would love for the Heat to win a title this year, but it just isn't going to happen. The team has been struggling to win home games against the Celtics and Lakers for crying out loud! :biggums:

Dude, the Heat had a worse record at this point last year. Wade was horrible in the first three rounds due to injury, but he stepped up in the Finals. He was incredible in Games 4 and 7.

Injury is a major factor, but that's the reason why the Heat are being extra careful this season.

Bosh was absolutely horrible last season in the PO's, but he also injured his ankle. I'm pretty sure that he's gonna step it up this season.

Oh, and most of the games that we've lost were to teams under .500. 8, IIRC. LeBron should've won those games without Wade and Bosh. He's not playing to his standards, even though he's averaging 26/7/7 on 58%.
The team outside the big 3 is absolute trash though.

Wade and Bosh equal 3 all stars? :wtf: Let's be honest, Wade is only an All Star because all of the good shooting guards play in the West. Wade shouldn't even qualify to be an all star based on the number of games he has missed.

yeah Lebron always the underdog. That's why analysts and betting rings always pick the team he's on to win.

Which is why the Heat won't 3 peat. Lebron has failed to step up this year when Wade hasn't played, but even if he does start playing better the Heat will still need a viable backup for Wade, and Ray Allen is not the answer. Allen is almost 40 years old and is being asked to play role he is no longer capable of playing. Only way the Heat get past the Pacers is if they make some huge trade, or Roy Hibbert suffers a season ending injury. And no, I am not wishing that on Hibbert to all the Pacer fans out there.

only betas like lebron, oscar and wilt cares about mvps. The alphas who are confident only cares about result which is rings. but majority of people are betas so its not surprising that wilt, oscar and lebron are top 10 in their lists.

As long as LeBron plays like '12 or '13 LeBron and Wade is healthy, the Heat are winning it all.

This is the problem. Wade is always hurt. He was hurt during 2012 playoffs ( He took injections during Pacers series, etc.), 2013 playoffs and now, again, after training the whole summer with Grover, he is hurt.
Without his athleticism, he is not good. He cant shoot the ball, he cant beat his man of the dribble. All his points come easy fast break points, easy layup and some post moves.

He's been better than Lebron this season from the mid range. You might want to look it up.

Even with the injuries, Wade was pretty good in the '12 PO's and '13 Finals.

They're running the maintenance program because he needs to be healthy for the PO's.

Lebron s mid range shooting isnt good. He s good with his 3pt shooting.
