Well when you actually think about it Lebron and whoever agrees with him is wrong.

sure give credit to winning the title

But

Dude was in the finals in the East every year.

Besides that one title, the team is always fighting for their life to even make the playoffs.

So like being in the finals like 7 times in the East compared to 1 in the west shows that the west is harder

Does it not?

Have you looked at PERR, MERR, VORP, MORP, BPM, WIN SHARE, PIE SHARE, RAPTOR AND TYRANNOSAURUS averages before coming to that decision?

I think you're forgetting one small detail

Lebron is pushing 40 and when he was dominating the East he was in his 20s :ohhh:

One thing everyone argues about LeBron is his consistentcy over a long period of time, has his standard of play dropped to such a level that this would be relevant?

:dwillhuh:

Even ignoring the fact that Lebron is considerably worse now than he was in his prime, Lebron has averaged 51 games per season in his last three seasons. He finished under 69 games once in his 16 years in the east and routinely played 75+ games in his prime.

I don't get people saying he is considerably worse. That said fine. Let me ask the question again. Do you think the only reason LeBron hasn't been to the finals at least 5 of the 6 years he has been playing in the West is because he has been hurt?

The depth of the west had NOTHING to do with it?

If that's the case then fine. I won't belabour the question anymore.

So if the Bubble ring doesn’t count the 1999 ring be fugazi to :hubie:. Most of the league was out of shape, they had to rush the season(multiple back to backs and even 2 back to back to backs on the schedule), and offense was way down.
