Higher chance he plays for a better coach (pop, Phil, pringles, karl, sloan, Carlisle, Saunders).

Higher chance he plays for.more forward thinking FOs that were willing to spend money, acquire FAs and could draft /develop well

Cavaliers were literally one of the worst franchises he could've been drafted by, in a eastern conference full of cheap and bad drafting FOs.

So I dont understand how nikkas say think this is a crazy take
It doesn't work like that, though. We've seen it.

LeBron doesn't want to buy into a system. Or have a coach who dictates plays and game flow. HE wants to do it himself.
He does a pretty good job doing it by himself. Obvious detriment being that when he sits and if he's not playing well, entire team sucks. Consequence of Bron-centric system.

If he was in the West, he doesn't play into a Jerry Sloan Utah system or Phil Jackson's triangle. That's not what Bron does or ever has done. He'd rather have Tyron Lue over David Blatt. Luke Walton bout to get fired and it'll be a Bron-friendly pushover that takes "charge" of the Lakers.

Bron ain't getting told what to do and yelled at by no fukking Popovich or Carlisle :mjlol:

Lebron after the decision isnt the same lebron drafted in 2003.

I firmly believe he made a conscious decision to never trust a front office again after his first stint in Cleveland.

Compare someone who went 6-0 against the west to someone whose lost 6 times to the west in the finals breh

he went against west teams that were tired from playing each other, while MJ just had to deal with an overrated Knicks team right :jbhmm:

but OK, if we go against the never lost in the finals, * Larry Bird and Shaq too :manny:

We can see how far you want to dig down this rabbit hole.

this entire post was ETHER. I couldn't even quote the entirety of it without my computer melting.

and as for the bolded, its crazy how this post was 4 years ago. but kobe stans managed to force him into the convo anyway while dodging all logic & exhibiting convenient amnesia. its an art.

I almost threw my food at the TV last night when caron butler was talking. how do these dudes get paid for this bullchit?






THIS

people always gloss over this.



kobe could never carry a team..

and kobe was drafted by the east, but he forced his way to the stacked lakers on draft night.

this kobe chit has to stop.





you should be asking yourself that question.

you do realize that the '90s was the weakest decade for teams right?





not when Jordan started winning.

Jordan won all his rings in the expansion era.

LeBron's competiton was much greater than Jordan's.

Negged for advanced and excessive Bronsexualism

Huh what you just wrote made no fukking sense. The west playoffs are still blood bath and they still beat brons ass 6 times. Shaq lost 2x in the finals but still won titles in the west.
