Can we also take All-Def team and MVP's into account? How about COY's?

EDIT: Forgot about 6th MOY.

lebron could never play in the triangle

[dubeta]

/thread

[ISHGoat]

Number of times they had been carried to the title by a dominant teammate

MJ - 0
Lebron - 0











Kobe - all of them

[3ball]

The list actually saves Lebron, because it says "in their Finals appearances".

Lebron is the only guy that missed the Finals while having all-star on his team PERIOD, so the list excludes some of Lebron's all-star teammates, including Mo Williams.

And let's not forget Zydrunas Illgauskas, who was named an all-star in 2003 and 2005.. So Lebron missed the playoffs in 2005 despite having an All-Star on his team and when he won his first playoff game in 2006, he did so with the help of a 2-time All-Star.

Otoh, MJ never played with an all-star, or anything near that during his early playoff career... [COLOR="Red"]But once he got just 1 all-star, he went 6/6[/COLOR].. Whereas, Lebron missed the playoffs despite having an all-star (Zydrunas in 2005), missed the Finals despite having an all-star in Cleveland and two #1 seeded teams, and only went 2/4 with two all-stars in Miami.

Jordan missed the Finals with an all star teammate 2 times (1990,1995)



Wheras LeBron only missed it once (2009)


Seems like Jordan is the bigger underachiever





Let's see if you can respond to this without another previous copy paste statement
