Current LeBron could have lead the 2003 Wizards in the nba finals

[Lebron23]

C Ethan Thomas F Kwame Brown, F LeBron James G G Jerry Stackhouse G Larry Hughes. He won 50 games with Larry Hughes as his 2nd scoring option in 2006. Stackhouse said he hated playing with MJ because MJ wanted to be the no.1 option even though he was already washed up in 2003. Stackhouse averaged 29.8 ppg in 2001. A healthy lebron is going to leelevate that team.

[highwhey]

absolutely, Lebron has carried FAR worse teams to the finals. MJ needed 2 world class defenders along side him to make the finals...

[Axe]

Op, relax. No need for you to have a derangement syndrome over a retired, inferior atg with these kinds of threads.

Jordan couldn't even make the playoffs with Hughes as his 3rd option


Lebron made the Finals with Hughes as his 2nd option

[IllegalD]

Jordan retired nearly 20 years ago, and he's still living rent free in your head. Imagine being this insecure that you can't even enjoy your favorite player making it to the Finals without Jordan CONSUMING your EVERY thought. :lol

[ScottieQuitting]

I mean, he should be able to. Considering Jordan himself at 39 years old in 2002 had them on pace to easily get in the playoffs before he was injured.

Why couldn’t LeBron get a young but pretty talented Laker cast into the playoffs last season? Before Anthony Davis arrived via sports agency manipulation and saved the Laker franchise on both ends of the court?

LeBron is in his 17 season, and is still five years younger than Michael was in his 15th and final season at 40 years old.

Age is more significant than anything else. Especially athletically.

It’s called PTSD from all the Finals L’s or Last Dance Doc Syndrome

[Gohan]

The lebron fans are just bad human beings overall. Instead of helping other black people they want to just continue putting money in lebrons pocket. At least lebron does give back to his people and try to help them

YEP. Dude disappeared for YEARS after LeBron kept taking L's from the Warriors and only recently re-emerged when the Lakers got Anthony Davis, the Warriors got dismantled and the Last Dance Doc came out. And has been on a rampage ever since. Doesn't realize that every Jordan thread he makes it makes him look more and more like an insecure weirdo that deep down inside knows LeBron will never pass him. :roll:

Imagine celebrating finals appearances after beating up on trash for a decade.. then waiting for the western conference to fizzle before you jump ship, fail on making a playoff appearance and take credit once Anthony Davis shows up?

Yeah..... LeShortcut in a nutshell.

Seriously. The “good job, good effort” participation trophy generation.

Losers repping the iconic Loser.

Clowns who celebrate that lame ass shit, appearances? If he wins a ring this year he’ll move up to a whopping 40% Finals winning clip.

HOF wing contemporaries:

Bird - 60%
Magic - 55%
Jordan - 100%
Kobe - 71%
Wade - 60%
LeBron - 33%
Durant - 66%

Kobe lead the Lakers in playoff Win-Shares in 2001. Kobe > Shaq CONFIRMED!

Thanks, pinoy. You better pray to god AD DOESN'T win Finals MVP or you will have painted yourself into another corner with your big, retard mouth. :lol

Funny how old Jordan gets a free pass for not making the playoffs with those Wizards in a conference where a team whose leading scorer averaged 14.9 points made the finals.
Yet a 39 year-old Karl Malone and a 40 year-old John Stockton were perfectly capable of leading their team to the playoffs in the significantly tougher western conference.

2001-03 west >>> 2001-03 east

[Axe]

2001-03 west >>> 2001-03 east
Yup, pretty much.

[TheGoatest]

Good, glad that we agree that Jordan couldn't make the playoffs in the significantly inferior conference during both of his seasons with the Wizards.

[Axe]

Lol @you not noticing that i was only augmenting your point further. Sloan was truly a better coach than collins ever was. And idc about baldan that much after his days in chicago were already over.

[TheGoatest]

It seems that you were trying to justify Jordan failing to make the playoffs because he had a bad coach. He should've been able to make the playoffs regardless of who his coach was.

[Axe]

But i ain't so chill out with the projections. And i'm not one of those who think that he can bring another team to a postseason trip because he was pretty much rusty already after a two-season vacation.

[Bawkish]

Current Lebron couldn't even enter the playoffs last year

[Spurs m8]

How insecure are you, op?

All you seem to do is make these fantasy threads...

Your boy is a loser...deal with it

[Kiddlovesnets]

He can’t, the nets team in 2003 were dominant in the east conference playoffs, winning 10 straight on their way to the finals with 2 sweeps in ECSF and ECF. Even the spurs needed 6 games including a monstrous game 6 to hold off that Nets team, LeBron at 35 ain’t going to beat them with the Wizards rosters.

[Reggie43]

The East was at arguably its all time worst so of course Lebron could have lead that team to the Finals.

[TheGoatest]

The East was at arguably its all time worst so of course Lebron could have lead that team to the Finals.

Those two Nets finals teams are hands down the worst finalists to represent a conference two years in a row in the history of the league.

And I respect the hell out of Jason Kidd. But we're talking about teams whose leading scorers averaged 14.9 (2002) and 18.7 (2003) points per game, and whose second best player by a huge margin was Kenyon Martin.

[Lebron23]

Doug Collins is actually a good coach. His grant hill led Pistons won 54 games in the late 1990's.

[Overdrive]

C Ethan Thomas F Kwame Brown, F LeBron James G G Jerry Stackhouse G Larry Hughes. He won 50 games with Larry Hughes as his 2nd scoring option in 2006. Stackhouse said he hated playing with MJ because MJ wanted to be the no.1 option even though he was already washed up in 2003. Stackhouse averaged 29.8 ppg in 2001. A healthy lebron is going to leelevate that team.

No he could not. The Nets were better and current Lebron needs a reliable second scorer. Stackhouse's 30 points on 30 shots won't cut it. The RIP version is a better fit for him.

Prime Lebron could.

Only Hughes averaged 15 PPG playing alongside LeBron. So it wouldn't work. Now in fairness, MJ led that Wizards team to 37 wins. So is it possible the Wizards win 40+ games with a younger LeBron? Absolutely. But what is the point of this post, really? Ultimately, you're comparing a younger, healthier, and more athletic LeBron to a 38-40 year old, injured, not-so-athletic MJ, not to mention a 3 year layoff.

Does this logic also apply to LeBron in 2002-03 and 2003-04? Or is this just selective criticism for a player who is 40 years old on his last lap?

Dude couldn't even make the playoffs with peak Westbrook, Davis, Dwight, Melo.
