LeBron played with like 50 different teammates, and none of them could do it.
There is rarely anyone on his teams who can even outrebound him. Anthony Davis couldn't even do it.
Kevin Love did it once in 2018 and Bosh in 2011 but those were the only times.
He's either so much better than everyone he's played with or his teammates just aren't on the level.

As far as stars go. Eric Gordon was the #3 option on a championship contender in Houston. Rondo was in NO. Mirotic was a solid player. Etc. If AD=Kareem, shouldn't this be enough to do something? They had two winning records, never cleared 50+ and won one playoff series. You aren't winning a chip with those rosters but if AD=Kareem and AD>LeBron surely he could have lifted them to much better outcomes.
Pippen, who AD was compared to by the 3ball disciple, won 55 with Horace Grant as his best teammate in 1 full year as a #1 option. AD couldn't do it with JRue over all those seasons? Most years, the Pelicans had a losing record.

AD literally outscored, outrebounded and ouatdefended LeBron this entire playoff run. Name another "GOAT candidate" this applies to.

And you're right most people act like he's a career bum.
Praising Kyrie for his Finals play against his main defender who allegedly could barely walk???

Lebron=Westbrook triple double seasons
Just because nobody out statpadded him, doesn't really mean much.

Its impossible to out score and out assist great ball dominant players. The ball is always in their hands and the whole system is built around them.

I mean... he's a stat hog. Fun fact, Michael Jordan actually averages more offensive rebounds per game in the playoffs than Lebron. Lebron gets easy defensive boards. And offensively hijacks the whole system to work as play finishers for him. AD and Kyrie fit very well, but Wade, Bosh and Love were cratered. MJ could fit with anybody because he could play on or off ball. This leads to higher team ceilings and "dynasty" playoff runs, instead of one off talent based winning.
Actually only AD fit very well ‘cause he fits well with any teammates and systems. I won’t say Irving fit well with Lebron, Irving was not even involved in lebron’s system at all and he just played iso-ball on his own. Lebron’s play style is a double edged sword, it turns role players and bench warmers into quality players but just won’t fit well with most all star or superstar teammates.
Among all 10 all star caliber teammates Lebron had in his career, only AD fit in his system, the other 9 ain’t compatible with Lebron ball. This should tell enough about the flaw of the system, high floor but low ceiling. The one thing that guarantees Lebron’s success in the first round of playoffs, is exactly the same thing that stops him from winning in the finals.

If LeBron played on "stacked" teams, then imagine how good LeBron must be to lead those stacked teams in all those categories.

He didn't, Wade and Bosh outplayed him. He was the 12th man on the Olympic team as well.
