If LeBron left, could AD win 55 games with the Lakers and be Top 3 in MVP?

[Gus Hemmingway]

While also being All NBA and All Defensive 1st team?


Like Pippen did in 1994 without MJ?


If the answer is no, then Pippen >> AD

[MaxPlayer]

I think he'd win about 1 playoff series every 7 years.

[Roundball_Rock]

Top 3 in MVP? Sure. He was 3rd in 18' but that team didn't clear 50 wins.

With LeBron gone, how would the Lakers have an offense? Their offense consistently went down the toilet whenever LeBron was off the floor. Maybe with a different construction 3-4 years from now but no way they win 55 with this roster sans LeBron.

[2ball]

Nope. The thing is LeBron is the ultimate hole-filler. Need a center? LeBron gotchou. Need a pg,sg,sf,pf LeBron has that too. Need shooting,space,rebounds,playmaking,points? LeBron all of the above. Lakers minus LeBron are lacking in all of those areas

Whos that dweeb?

And what’s the story with him and MJ?

[Mr. Woke]

That business man beat MJ in one on one.

MJ was trying real hard too, but John Rodgers smoked his ass. He even scored in the paint against MJ.

MJ got his butt took. He might as well have gotten banged in the ass in a prison shower.

That destroyed MJ's legacy.

If he had greg pop and better system absolutely

[Kiddlovesnets]

He surely can as long as theres a playmaker in the team, ie. Rondo.

Shit give greg pop that lakers team minus bron and they're getting 55 wins all day long. Davis and Rondo in pops system? Easy work

So why did Davis, Rondo, and prime Cousins win 37 games in 2017?

Did they have pop? I said give them pop. Thats only fair since pip had a goat coach too.

They had a Pop disciple, Alvin Gentry who was an assistant in San Antonio with Pop in 1990.

And also had Pre injury Cousins, who was a Top 10 player in the league


What’s the excuse?

Gentry isnt pop. Give pop davis and that lakers team and they'd win 55 and you know they would.
