Ron Harper is not a #1 option on a playoff team breh c'mon.:comeon:

Rice played for the Lakers for 2 years (in 99' they didn't win anything:bryan:)
Breh he pulling all kinda dumbass points out his ass. Never in league history have 3 number one options in their prime teamed up after doing their own thing for years.

I'm not saying Bron was wrong but it was the easiest route.

Glen rice was not a 20ppg player the year before he came to LA. Kobe and Glen rice were not #1 option players the year before LA won their first ring so :camby: don't act dumb

My bad. I forgot about all the success Chris Bosh had in Toronto. :ehh:

That one trip to the playoffs was something else. How many games did they win? None? Epic shyt. :whew:

You're right. Rice averaged 22.3 the year before he went to the Lakers.

But Harp only averaged 20.1 the year before he got to Chicago.

Sorry for rounding down. :manny:

You the one don't know about Rice and Harper. :russ:

Grow some facial hair, kid.
I know all about glen rice and I know the glen rice that balled out in Charlotte wasn't the same glen rice who came to LA. You just trying to denfend your point by any means necessary. What the Heat did has never been done before in terms of joining up. Trying find obscure ass examples won't work.

Illgauskus was actually a 2 time all star.. He was an all star BEFORE and AFTER Lebron came to the cavs.. So was Antwon Jamison..

17.5 ppg, 40% from 3 his first year in LA as the 3rd wheel. Not too bad.

Point is... every championship team has good players. That's why they're championship teams.

I'm sorry I can't respect it:yeshrug:. Destroyed the competitive balance in the league and it was the most uncompetitive sports union I've witnessed in my lifetime. And there's no real argument to that since they are on there way to there 4 straight championship series. As soon as I watched the decision Back in the day I knew it was a wrap for at least 5 years. I just thought LBJ was better than that:manny:. Before him teaming up with your biggest competition was reserved for :flabbynsick: Players. This doesn't mean LBJ isn't a great player, I just don't really respect him as a competitor if I'm being frank

No shyt every title team has good players :mjlol:. My point was it was the easiest route to a title because you had 3 former number one options join the same squad.

It was smart way to grab rings but it was still an easy out

And Scottie was a number one option before joining Chicago? Kobe wasnt number one option worthy until 2001 so again :camby:

Scottie didn't lead the Bulls to the 2nd round when Jordan was out? He wasn't an MVP candidate? They weren't calling him the most complete player in the game? Seems like a legit #1 option to me.

Kobe doesn't have 2 Finals MVP trophies? And to hear Kobe stans tell it, he was the #1 option on Shaq's teams. :dead:

So you're saying it's easier to win a chip with good players than with not good players? :leon: I agree.
