The Lebron Effect :wow: this pic says it all

[GilSho]

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.

Cavaliers
2009-2010 - 61-21 w/ LeBron
2010-2011 - 19-63 w/out LeBron

What playoff success did Lebron have in 2010?

 

[AJtheOne]

Mozgov, JR, and Shumpert are a big part of that too.

Cavs were going nowhere before those trades.

Cavs were 19-20 at one point before the trades.

LeBron has a lot to do with the success but he has had help.

The LeBron effect 11 of the 15 players on that Cavs team arent there anymore.

never said they didn't play a part but name me a superstar in the NBA right now that would lead this current Cavs team to finals appearance ( No Love and a banged up Kyrie)

I'll wait

Dirk better

But when da team loses, y'all put all da blame on him.

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.

I'm not knocking him but he doesn't get past the second round without the contributions of his teammates and coaching staff.

He for some reason gets all the glory and all the blame.

This team is pretty damn good.

 

[AJtheOne]

JR produced a bigger change in that locker room and on court chemistry prove me wrong.

he made an impact for sure but lets be real what team wit JR as the focal point is going to the finals, must or less the playoffs

 

[GunRanger]

JR saved this team against the Bulls

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

if Bosh had a working lung we could be talking Ws vs Heat right now.

Does the graphic not list playoff success?


We know Lebron can win 60 games in the LEast....hell the Hawks just that did that

Don't talk to me about the regular season which is meaningless and the bulk of Lebron's accomplishments. I only want to hear what happened in the playoffs

He's the best player in the world. His supporting cast has helped him get to this point.

This isn't the 2007 Cavaliers.
