In the East: Has Bron faced an alpha in their prime?

[Lord_Chief_Rocka]

What do y’all think?

Pierce would be the closest

Gilbert Arenas maybe?

I don’t think he ever played Wade in the playoffs

All the other tier one players were either in the West or on his team(Wade)

Am I missing anyone?

 

[Alexander The Great]

I was thinking about this the other day. Dwight Howard in 2009 would be the closest. some may say Derrick Rose in 2011 tho

Never seen the ability for 15 years for people to never give the man credit....Now Bron hasn't ever faced an "Alpha" in their prime

4/3/2018 it was the Cavs getting bounced in the first round, Toronto got Fred Van Fleet, 76ers are the real deal, "we got a fukking squad" jokes.

5/3/2018....The east is weak...Bron hasn't faced an Alpha

Drose in 2011

Howard is borderline

DWIGHT...

ROSE NEVER REACHED HIS PRIME.

IMAGINE SAYING BRON WAS IN HIS PRIME IN YEAR 3.

THIS JUST TELLS YOU HOW GOOD ROSE WAS.

Are we talking players as good as Ron Artest on the Rockets or the Deron William led Jazz?

 

[Alexander The Great]

Good call on Rose 2011

Howard is borderline

true, howard was only 23 that year. Paul Pierce in 2008, 2010 would be the closest, those were the end of "prime Paul Pierce"

 

[ISO]
