The King Is Back....Lebron Explains His Playoff Mentality

[Codeine Bryant]

Reaching the finals ain't easy

It is in the East tho.

Playing sub.500 teams first-round
Playing in a conference where the 4/5 seeds wouldn't even make the playoffs in the opposing conference

Yeah, LeBron is a great player. A generational talent, no doubt. But he has feasted on weak opposition. This can't be denied.

i still cant believe dudes out here trying to say reaching the finals in the east is hard when u have a stacked team. Can someone put together the winning percentages bron has faced to get in the finals vs what west faced to get into them.

Last year specifically..Combined winning percentage of teams Spurs faced in playoffs (not including championship) 64%, for Miami - 58%. Feel free to do the math for the other years but I'm sure like this one it isn't going to be as exaggerated as alot of you think.

edit: because i'm not doing anything else.

2013: Miami - 54%, SA - 61%
2012: Miami - 59%, OKC - 64%
2011: Miami - 65%, DAL - 65%

Wade post 2011 wasn't a top 5 player b

Probably safe to say Wade in 2011 as top 5 might be a reach too
