26 win average

WITH LeBron

Does anyone think about how LeBron elevated Kyrie, a non all-star in 2016, to great heights?

You need to be banned. The team added the best player in basketball in LeBron. LeBron has had a super disappointing career and not lived up to his talent but even people that view LeBron correctly will admit he was the best player in basketball (at least roughly tied for that honor) when he joined Kyrie. They also traded for an all-star in Kevin love coming off a 26-12.5 season.

No one is claiming Kyrie just flipped a switch and did it all himself.
