From SB Nation (https://www.sbnation.com/2013/6/19/4444164/lebron-james-dwyane-wade-heat-spurs-nba-finals-game-6) in 2013 Finals (after game 6):

O-Rtg/D-Rtg with LBJ/Wade: 100.8/112.7 ... O-Rtg/D-Rtg with LBJ/NO Wade: 131.7/89.5

"the Spurs were using each Wade and Lebron's so-so perimeter shooting against them, cheating off of one to prevent the other from doing what he wants to do"

The Spurs were cheating off Lebron to help on Wade and vice-versa, thus encouraging them to pass to each other for spot-ups, which the Spurs perceived both to be weak at.. the article shows video after video of the Spurs exploiting the lack of fit/limited skillsets/weak shooting of Lebron and Wade.. :eek:

So the lack of optimal fit between Lebron and Wade was a real thing, proven by the eye test and many stats.. Wade's assists also cratered alongside Lebron.

the limited skillset of Lebron and Wade (dribble-intensive weak shooters) ultimately made the Heat a worse team than many other guys in their place, so that DOES knock them down compared to other guys - not everyone passes them, but some do.

Keep in mind that Lebron's teammates avoided an 0-3 deficit in the 2013 Finals while he averaged 16 on 39% thru 3 games, and 23 on 43% thru 6 - it was 2011 all over again, but Ray Allen saved him this time.. Lebron was a net negative for the series (heat lost with him on the floor)..

Well it's funny is that people knock Wade, but it was Lebron's ball-dominant skillset that didn't fit with him, which the Spurs exploited as SB Nation showed above... I guess that's how a "not 6, not 7" juggernaut turns into 2/4 underachiever including goat choke and record loss..

Teaming up with 2010 Wade was like teaming up with Bird.. MJ and Bird would've won 10-12 championships, depending on health
