The Lebron Effect :wow: this pic says it all

The goat effect

Bron better than Kobe tho

 

[CrimsonTider]

Fact is historically there hasn't been a player that has consistently this amount of impact on a franchise. Not even MJ's bulls who won 55 games without him & were a couple of bad calls away from an ECF date with the Pacers.

An (in the words of LBJ detractors) "all-time stacked" team that made 4 finals in a row & added Deng, Whiteside and Dragic shouldn't be missing the playoffs in the fukking East.

These players played no where near the entire season together.

ATG LeBron isn't the reason for the teams success it's because of Shump/AR Smith/Mozgov, LeBreh is lucky to have such dedicated teammates

When the Cavs get swept

 

[mr. smoke weed]

How can you even give LeThot props when he linked up with Mr 11/11 per36 aka Tristan Thompson. LeHelpMe stealing his teammates shine again

 

[Biscayne]

They're 2-9 without LeBron. Sure, he has help but he's not exactly playing with the 86 Celtics. Kyrie, Love, JR & co were career losers before Bron taught them how to win.

LBJ would perennially come up short until Dwade taught him how to win.

2010 Cavs:

C Shaquille O'Neal
PF Antawn Jamison
SF LeBron James
SG Anthony Parker
PG Mo Williams

Bench: Delonte West, Anderson Varejao, Jamario Moon, Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Daniel Gibson, Leon Powe, and Jawad Williams

2011 Cavs:

C JJ Hickson
PF Antawn Jamison
SF Alonzo Gee
SG Anthony Parker
PG Ramon Sessions

Bench: Daniel Gibson, Manny Harris, Luke Harangody, Christian Eyeanga, Joey Graham, Ryan Hollins, with Anderson Varejao on IR


Not the same team at all. Only 5 players remained from the previous season.

That 2010 Cavs team wasn't half bad. Varejao, Ilgauskas, Gibson, and Delonte coming off the bench? Prime Wade could've possibly taken that team to the Finals. Iono if he'd won the ship, but he could've definitely torched those Celtics(he did it in the 1st round playing alongside scrubs) and gotten to the Finals.

 

[Biscayne]

Bosh caught the lung issue as soon as the Dragic trade happened. He never got to play with him. Everyone knows they had the worst pG situation in the league.

Dragic
Wade
Deng
Bosh
Whiteside



no team in the East wanted to see them

We blew out Cleveland twice, and Cleveland smacked us twice. But the two times Cleveland smacked us, Wade wasn't playing. I wouldn't be surprised if Miami won 50 next year. But this thread isn't about us.

IRVING AND LOVE TOGETHER ALONE WOULDA WON AT LEAST 48 IN THE EAST

 

[Sccit]

2014 Heat = finals appearance

2015 Heat = missed playoffs

2014 Cavs = missed the playoffs

2015 Cavs = finals appearance/possible championship

its just a coincidence tho right

THE HEAT WAS A 6TH SEED WHEN BOSH WENT DOWN BROBRO

 

[AJtheOne]

THE HEAT WAS A 6TH SEED WHEN BOSH WENT DOWN BROBRO

they were also 7-8 games below .500

 

[Sccit]

they were also 7-8 games below .500

STILL A PLAYOFF TEAM IN THE EAST

AND IRVING+LOVE IN THE EAST = A PLAYOFF TEAM AS WELL

SO UR LOGIC FAILS

 

[Biscayne]

Breh sent Chicago, Detroit and Boston to the shadow realms

Technically Wade sent Detroit to the Shadow Realms first. LeBron just finished them off. LBJ was the bus driver that took them to the Shadow Realms. But Wade's 2006 ECF performance laid the groundwork for LBJ to finish the new look Bad Boys off for good in 2007.

Bron better than Kobe tho

AT WHAT? LOSING FINALS SERIES'??

 

[AJtheOne]

STILL A PLAYOFF TEAM IN THE EAST

AND IRVING+LOVE IN THE EAST = A PLAYOFF TEAM AS WELL
