How did Lebron James lose to a Career Loser in Dwight Howard with HCA while having a

[QUOTE=knicksman]duncan has won in the better competition - NBA. He doesnt need to prove himself. But lebron? The guy couldnt even get gold in a weaker league. No wonder he has to call wade and bosh.[/QUOTE]

Wade and Bosh won bronze though...so Bron had less help than Kobe, who had Gasol (gold). :confusedshrug:

So gasol > bron+ wade+ bosh? Damn and he is your GOAT?

So Kobe had Gasol (>Bron + Wade + Bosh) + prime Dwight + Nash + Artest and still lost in the first round :eek:

And he is your GOAT?

similar to how by today's league standard, looking at Shaq's stat sheet

every single one of his coaches would most likely received an F based on usage

How do?

[QUOTE=Duncan21formvp;13802053]How did Lebron James lose to a Career Loser in Dwight Howard with HCA while having a 4x DPOY on his squad.[/QUOTE]

because at that point, Howard was a career-winner.

This is even worse now. Lebron supposedly the best player in the league that year lost to a guy who isn't even considered top 74 all time with HCA.

We actually figured out why lebron lost this series


1) he lost 3 fourth quarter leads Game 1, 2 and 4, including getting outplayed by dwight in critical gm 4 OT.. this is similar to 18' Finals, when he choked in Game 1 OT and lost another 4th quarter lead in game 3

2) lebron never beat a top 5 SRS without at least 20 ppg from sidekick, except once when his sidekick got 18 on crazy shooting 66% ts.. otoh, MJ won 5 series against top 5 SRS teams with 15-16 ppg from sidekick on bad efficiency

2) Stan preferred to "let him dribble" rather then double-team him.. this adjustment-less approach left the defense rested and more capacity for offense

Not to mention the Magic were missing their All-Star point guard Jameer Nelson due to injury and were forced to start an And-1 player at PG in Rafer Alston.

This plus HCA made the Cavaliers overwhelming favorites.

^^^ Wow lebron's a loser, choker, disappointer..

And its funny because lebron's longevity argument goes up in smoke upon further analysis

Lebron averaged 20/6/5 on 41% as a rookie

That's not elite - sophomore/junior Jordan would've done better - jordan shouldn't get punished for playing college - his sophomore/junior seasons should count towards longevity because he had elite NBA capability at that time

So if we add jordan's soph/junior seasons plus the baseball year, plus 1999, that's 17 years of elite basketball capability just like bron.. so lebron doesn't even have longevity!!!! Jordan is goat by far but we already knew that
