there is nothing specific to lebron about the cavs. Basically all the great teams in the nba have the same make up which is stretch 4 with numerous 3 and D guys + a dominant perimeter player unless they have a dominant low post player or if's it's a team with all defense and 1 offensive player early 2000's sixers with iverson which doesn't exist today. Basically you're saying kyrie's flaws/strenghths can only be maximized on team like those Iverson, sixers.....since Kyrie doesn't make players better and doesn't play any d:mjgrin:
nobody makes players better and LeBron makes good players bad and cause them to lose passion for the game. The only people who like playing with leBron is the idgaf players like JR Swish

Kyrie got his feelings hurt by bron on multiple occasions. I think the final straw was the cavs throwing him in trade talks during the draft
man I dont even blame him, the cavs putting him in trade talks was bullshyt. Kyrie might not be the best player in the league, but for all the great playoff performances he gave them, he should've been untouchable to the organization. I would feel highly disrespected had I been in the same situation. How you gonna trade dude who made "the shot" for another all-star who hasn't gon as far in the playoffs or even fits the team :hhh:

What separates the great teams like the Spurs, Warriors, and to a lesser extent the Celtics from the Cavs is a set system.

You run what Pop, Stevens, and Kerr wants you to run compared to playing nearly entirely thru one person.

Part of the reason why I think Kyrie will have an MVP type season is becuz the Celtics have a shyt ton of young talent and they all seem to listen to Stevens.

:what: The names on paper.....are you actually tryna have a conversation or is this just a passive aggressive jab at other posters?


Kobe/Nash/Dwight was supposed to be a super team we all saw how that played out...ultimately it's the chemistry that makes a team super, GS went 73-9 with basically a homegrown squad.

Lebrons super teams only look super when he's out there because they were made for him, and since he has damn near the highest usage rate in the NBA that means they LOOK super alot of the time, even if they dont have any real chemistry
LeBron wasn't in the top ten of usage rate last season, but Kyrie Irving was though. :usure:
