he was in his athletic prime in Miami but he put it all together during those title years in LA. And that year he won 6th man was his most consistent season. No coincidence he played with Team USA in the summer prior to that season and ended up having an award winning year.

Will never understand why that nikka choose playing with Westbrick over Lebron. Choose fukkin OKC over LA. Choose less money than he could have gotten in LA.
Him and Bron would be guaranteed conference finals...and if they managed to make a flip in their assets for an AD that’s a championship squad.
This dumbass nikkahe ain’t gonna win shyt in OKC and won’t even get the endorsements or notoriety to go along with it.
Lowry is an elite shooter my nikka. He’s literally the perfect pg to play alongside Bron
nikka didnt want to get blamed when things went wrong
Look at the Lakers now. Its "Lebron needs a superstar player" when they're losing. When they're winning its "Lebron is winning DESPITE not having help". What kind of star/superstar player would WANT to be around that type of environment?

Was the first thing that came to mind.
Really, I think he would do best with a team like the 90s Bulls - but they'd have to play the Triangle for maximum results.

Realistically if you put Lebron on the Mavericks or Suns right now they would probably when a title.

He doesn’t want the pressure and maybe that career threatening injury was still in the back of his mind
Y’all do realize that OKC have a better record than the Lakers right?

Give Thanks, Repent, and Forgive
You do realize that we’re talking about PG not joining before the season. Doesn’t matter what the record is.
Or he thought a team that finished 4th last year would improve compared a consistent bottom feeder like the lakers, with/without lebron
As long as you have a rim-protector at the 5 and guys who can shoot and defend at the other positions, pretty much any lineup would work with LeBron.
The only lineups that don't work are ones with multiple one-dimensional players or zero rim protection. It's okay if your rim protector can't score and if one of your guards can't defend, but you really shouldn't have more than one liability on either end. And that really goes for building around anyone.
All those lineups would be fire.
But you're right that you don't need multiple all-star caliber players, really just one all-star, a rim-protector and a couple three-and-D guys would be more than enough so long as you had a competent bench that didn't just bleed points whenever he was sitting.

That lineup would make opposing teams just give up on basketball.
Conley easily would fit that role at PG, Lowry too, possibly Jrue. Or you could have someone like Lilliard or Harden who could be the secondary creator role that you're giving to the SF. Harden would actually do much better in the playoffs if the pressure wasn't on him to create and someone else was drawing defenders away to give him a bit more space.

Name any starting lineup he's ever played in that had more than 1-2 spot-up shooters in it.
And he's made a ton of players better.
Mo Williams of all people got named to an All-star team playing with Lebron.
Mario Chalmers went from $800,000/year to a $19 million contract by playing with Lebron.
Wade tripled his titles playing with Lebron and had the most efficient shooting seasons of his career even as he was missing 20-30 games/season and clearly going
athletically.Bosh, who had never won a playoff series before Lebron, became a more complete player (better defender and developed a three), had the most efficient shooting of his career and got two rings.
Delly went from the D-league to a $38 million deal because of Lebron.
Mosgov went from $4 million/year to a $64 million contract because Lebron made him look so good.
Shump went from $2 million/year to a $40 million contract because of Lebron.
J.R. went from $5 million/year to a $57 million contract because of Lebron.
Tristan went from $5 million/year to an $82 million contract because of Lebron.
Kyrie Irving got his first All-NBA selection playing with Lebron and his first ring after not even making the playoffs without Lebron.
Birdman, Battier, Miller, Richard Jefferson, Jeff Green, James Jones, Anthony Parker, Channing Frye, and Kyle Korver all saw their careers resurrected or extended playing with Lebron.
Name any players who actually got worse playing with LeBron, and didn't just get older or put up fewer shot attempts. You have Love (who turned out to be a fraud who was just putting up empty numbers for a bad team) and....?
And no hot takes about a bunch of new teammates just 30 games into the season.

Imma get historical to explain what Bron needs. The ideal team for him would look like this:
PG - 'Bron
SG - Jordan
SF - KD
PF - Dirk
C - Hakeem
Basically, he needs talented people that can play off him but are prolific enough scorers where Bron doesn't have to focus on scoring. That's always been Bron's problem. It's like he's trying to be John Stockton and Michael Jordan at the same time. PG's need the ball to facilitate but Bron is also going to be the primary scorer as well. That means he's even more ball dominant than an average PG.
The only other solution would be to pair him up with a CP3-type guard that's a true floor general. The kind of guy that even LeBron can defer to so that he can focus on being the SG/SF wing player he was made to be.
