    Only thing that is true is the Lakers were a lottery team without AD.

    How many years of lebron's career did he play without an all-star teammate

    Zydrunas was all-star in 05'

    Mo in 09'

    Wade/Bosh and Love/Kyrie from 11-18'

    AD in 2020

    Ingram was all-star in 2020 too

    10' Jamison was recent 2-time all-star


    So basically every year of his career

    And people forget that lebron stole his rival's sidekick in 06' - Arenas won the 1st round in 05' because his sidekick went bananas (Hughes averaged 23/6/5).. but lebron stole Hughes in 06', and beat Arenas in the 1st Round

    Yet 48 wins can't be too far from 50, yes?
