[QUOTE=3ba11;15045944]Yes when the 2nd option takes over the 1st option role, it's a called "carrying" because of the unexpected nature
Otoh, when the 1st option can't carry the scoring load, then it's because they had equal scoring partners or near equal-scoring partners - this would include the 28 to 23 gap between Lebron and Wade in 2012. A gap of 5-6 ppg isn't carrying the scoring load/defeating max defensive attention... A much bigger gap is required,
And also any team-up with a fellow A-lister like Luka/Wade/AD basically don't count because it's like tag team and it isn't a "normal roster of 1 franchise player.. Kyrie and Love were also considered franchise players when Lebron teamed up with them, so he simply can't win with normal rosters (because he can't develop the chemistry/imposes roles)[/QUOTE]
You don't believe any of the words you type, because you contradict yourself all the time. You just have a compulsion to think about Lebron James.
The poster child for Lebron-Derangement syndrome.

The 1st option can't get outscored or else he got "carried".. it makes perfect sense...
Unfortunately, you guys split hairs to avoid the point being made that Lebron isn't capable of carrying the scoring load on the championship level/defeat max defensive attention, or beating a top 10 candidate convincingly, or producing a dynasty/great team, plus he has a lottery record against Finals teams - that's the best proof ever that he produces low team ceilings.. This is all historical record and common knowledge

[B]Players that are capable of blowing away other great players/top 10 candidates (sweep or gentleman sweep) - getting a knockout vs another great player:
[/B]
* Jordan (swept Shaq, Isiah, and Magic)
* Kobe (swept 08' Duncan)
* Duncan (swept Shaq, Lebron)
* Hakeem (swept Shaq)
* Curry (swept Lebron)
* Jokic (swept Lebron)
* Bird (swept Hakeem & MJ)
Otoh, Lebron was always blown away by other great players like Duncan, Curry or Jokic, and otherwise barely beat them once via teammate bailout - a one-off amongst a sea of losses, aka no one loses every time.. Ultimately, Lebron has a lottery record against the Spurs, Warriors and Nuggets in the playoffs (17-36), while never avenging upset losses to the TWolves, Mavs, and Magi.. It's called fraud, aka LeFraud
Full Court is a deepthroating homo who keeps on writing gay poems about random dudes
He still has more finals mvp and league mvp than your fave kobe bryant.

Of course he did, and he said some bs about [B]always[/B] being blown away by 3 guys he had to beat in title runs. Short bus basketball fan.
