    Default Weak teams win East & Lebron sucks in West without AD, so when did Lebron carry teams

    Is the best example when Mo's spacing effect added 21 wins to Lebron's 45-win loser?.. Is that the best example?

    Otherwise, when did he successfully carry teams (bed-wetting teammates) over meaningful opposition in a series? (top 5 SRS opponent or Finals opponent)

    Lebron had many great coaches that were COY or HOF, including Spolestra, Blatt, Brown, and Lue

    Meanwhile, Phil was built by MJ (MJ was the goat candidate before Phil) and infact overrated.. The triangle needs consistent, QUICK bailouts throughout the game, which only MJ or his clone could provide - Phil has no rings without MJ or his clone

    Lebron had the best 2nd option in the conference in 2018 - a veteran, 2-star championship team against a bunch of 0-star teams in the East

    When did Lebron carry the scoring load on the Finals level? (when did he defeat max defensive attention on the Finals level?)

    When did Lebron beat a top 5 SRS team with poor scoring and efficiency from a sidekick (when did he have carry-job against good team?)

    You're bragging about the veteran prime Cavaliers beating the victor Oladipo pacers and rookie Tatum Celtics. A team with a prime LeBron James and All Star Kevin Love beating teenagers.

    Its just... unfathomable that you think stats matter in this context when that same team... when they faced one real opponent... got the doors blown off them.

    Mark Twain I think said it best. There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.

    If you can't carry the scoring load, then can't defeat maximum defensive attention/burden and don't compare to MJ/Kobe, who carried the load on the highest level (Finals)

    James playing in his 8th consecutive Finals. You cried about Curry fatigue even though he was 2nd option in 17,18, an 19.

    Love missed games 6-7 of the 18 ECF.

    Claiming a 15yr player, with that many miles, is still considered to be in his prime is quite dumb.
