I feel like I watching Lebron waste the tail end of his prime on a bad team just like Kobe. What Bron has to do for this team to win close games against solid teams is just depressing and it's hard to trust that Love is just going to turn it on for the playoffs when he comes back.
Lebron is playing way above the level of Kobe his last few years :dahell:

I feel you that last two healthy years kobe had with the lakers I knew he would get hurt. Luckily lebron has never had injuries like kobe (knee issues).

Also as bad as the coaching and team was the last 2 healthy years kobe had. The cavs are far better talent wise. But lebron still has had to do more than any other NBA player I have ever seen. Dude is the basketball version of Randal Cunningham and Cam Newton. In which his team needs him to do every damn thing.

I don't think that was his point.
What’s the point then

The last productive season Kobe had he had Nash Dwight Pau Artest and role players and they were trash

Kobe didn’t carry shyt that season

Lebron would have that team in the finals no question

they arent a bad team... its a better team than what kobe had, but he is also a more willing passer. love is an all-star. one of the best rebounders in the league and 20 ppg scorer. he will make a big difference for them.

idk if they make the finals though. the raptors are really good on both sides of the ball. it can come down to if derozen is ready to play at a superstar level in the playoffs

Kobe didn't carry the 2012-2013 season?

:what:

https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/3118/gamelog?selectedTable=0&season=2012


Kobe averaged 45 minutes in April posting 30/7/7 just so we can be competitive and make the playoffs


Kobe averaged 28/6/7 post all star break

His achilles blew up in 500 pieces because of that.

Lebron would of had that team in the Finals?

In what world? Nash was done. Dwight was hurting. Pau was finished mentally.

What are you on? :what:

This is a petty bad defensive team. They don't have many creators. They have a ton of streaky shooters. They have no true big man. A team like he 76ers would be hell for them.

Love is an all star but you're asking him to come right back and jump into playoff basketball and be effective. Rarely does that ever go well for anyone. If he came back a month ago as opposed to the end of March/early April I'd feel differently.,
