Its hard to tell since LeBron never gets hurt but the Clippers are really a different team without CP3...like a sub .500 team and they are a team that can be in the Finals with him.

at first i'm like "yeah, Chris Paul aint winning the MVP because he missed too many games" now if anything, that shyt made arguable made his case of winning MVP greater since we know how the Clippers are without him.

That's true, the clippers are a .500 without CP3.

In Miami with a healthy wade without Lebron the heat would win 50-55 games and at the least be in the ECF finals.

no knock on Lebron though he puts them as the favorites

with a healthy Wade, this current Miami team would NOT win 50-55 games......they play small ball and it only works because of Lebron....Spoelstra is not a good enough coach to adjust without Lebron...their shooters wouldn't be getting as many open looks, Bosh isn't going to block to create offense and their defense and transition offense wouldn't be as good...

They would have a more traditional lineup/team, but remember a healthy motivated wade in 09 carried miami to 45 with Beasley being his second best player.

The heat would have a lineup like this

Birdman/Anthony/Pittman/Haslem
Bosh/Haslem
Battier/Lewis/Miler
Wade/Allen
Chalmers/Cole

that's still a very good team

Don't tell them that. In their world Dwade is :flabbynsick:,not a top 5 player when healthy and bosh aint a factor. Lebron carries the Heat by himself blah blah.

Miami without LeBron has no shot to win the title. But they'd still be a good team.

With him, they're a lock to win it all.

It's 2013 and Dwade doesn't have the legs to carry the Heat anymore over a 82 game season.....I watch alot of Heat games and when Lebron goes to bench it's gets tough for them...maybe that's because they are accustom to him being out there...but it's a struggle for them without him...

Thats with any team when you accustomed to playin a certain style. Especially when the offense goes through the best player most of the time. But that team going through training camps and practices w/o Lebron would still be champioship contenders with a health Dwade and same role players. Who knows if they could win but they would contend.

Maybe Im Gonna Sound Like A Hater But I Dont See The Clips Winning A Championship With or Without CP3

Heat Can Win One With LeBron, But They Cant Without Him

So To Answer Your Question, False

They was reaching 60+ wins :mjpls:

Yea im not trying to throw salt on Lebrons impact/greatness. But they couldn't attract free agents or good players with him so they damn sure aint gnna get players w/o him. Kyrie Irving good but he's no Lebron.
