Lebron James is the perfect player for leading a super team to the lottery. You know how I know? Because he did it. :lol

A young Lebron James couldn't shoot - he was mostly drive and (finish or kick to 3pt shooter). How would he fit into a D'Antoni 7 seconds or less offense with Steve Nash? He didn't - we saw the strategy against a young Lebron - cut off the driving lanes.

Look at his supporting casts in Cleveland. If he had a prime Ray Allen, or Michael Redd as his 2nd option. His team would be winning multiple rings.

:biggums:

Lebron's had the most help of anyone in the history of the sport. And he's STILL managed to come up short the majority of the time.

You got to learn to trust NBA live 2008 for these things

Yep, even Greg Oden.

The Dantoni Steve Nash offense was predicated on taking the 1st open shot you got. And they did it with extreme pace and efficiency putting up #1 offenses and #1 assist ranks year after year.

Lebron has never come close to leading a #1 offense despite team hopping with MVP talent and ridiculous offensive help.

Amare and Joe Johnson over Wade and AD isn't going to change that.

This is why MJ is so much more respectable basketball wise. He played with nothing like this... yet won way more in less time.
