Could Lebron win 60 with Pippen?

From Day 1 of Pippen's career, it would be "get in the corner and spot-up"... Imagine telling that to a young bricklayer like Pippen or Giannis - how would they ever develop???.. What examples do we have of Lebron's style growing single-digit rookies into meaningful producers??

When did Lebron and his imposition of spot-up roles ever grow young players?... So how could he grow Pippen, let alone win with him?

Accordingly, Lebron can't grow Pippen, and how would he win with a historic bricklayer like Pippen when his stiff-arm needed all-star spacing to win more than 50 in 09'?

LeBron and Pippen + 3 shooters = 70 wins

On any of the 90s Bulls teams? John Paxson.

Simple answer. Yup. 2 lottery picks in the same draft? You see what he did with guys like Varejeo, Gibson, Hickson, Chalmers, Cole, etc.?

Probably the guy that had like 10 points that 4th qtr already and had hit the last few shots for the Cavs before that one....

Why couldn't he take this one then? Why did they inbound the ball to Kyrie? Why are they clearing space for Kyrie and not Lebron?

Why did Lebron take himself out of the play and stand in the corner as a backup option?

Game 7 of the NBA Finals with under a minute to go and you think the Bulls are inbounding to John Paxson while MJ waits in the corner?

LeBron could sell Pippen for a bag of doritos at the Red light district and get the team to 60 wins playing 4v5.

Probably because he rightly trusted him in big spots too, duh. You've got to be retarded at this point f you still doubt whether Lebron can come up in the clutch bro. He's got more playoff game winners than anyone else to play the game.....even before his extended longevity. To many big game performances to count in almost any scenario. Put the pipe down.
