and it's not even about that, he went join forces man
imagine when Kobe was mad a fukk and he went to the Spurs
And we saw how Amare panned out right?
The Cavs didn't have a decent team without LeBron, you saw what happened the year after he left.
When Kobe complained and threatened to demand a trade, guess what happened, the front office got him help. LeBron didn't have that luxury in Cleveland.

Compare Prime Gasol who was averaging 18.9 PPG on 58% shooting to an injured Wade who was getting his knees drained after a game during their first ring.
Go look up Wade's stats during the first two championship runs, look up Gasol's stats during his first two, and tell me who you'd rather have.

So you're gonna downplay Ginobili, Parker, Gasol and Bynum for Wade, Chris Bosh who is turning into Matt Bonner who plays Defense and a 38 year old Ray Allen
Do you really believe the garbage you type? This is a real question btw.
Wade is a top 5 player in the league. Tomorrow, he could leave Miami and become the "Kobe" of another team and seriously go head to head against Durant and Bron. Gasol can't. Manu can't. Bynum definitely cant. Tony Parker ain't on that level either.
Do you really believe the garbage you type?
And do you really believe this deteriorated Dwyane Wade could leave Miami right now and carry a team?

the only people still clinging to this are kobe stans, fakkits and retards...3 things that are rarely mutually exclusive on this site.
it's amazing how the acceptable circumstances and the "cap" on talent (and age of said talent) drastically changes when lebron's name comes up.
this criticism has been the same for years and has never made sense. simply because the effect is always the same. elite players with great teammates win championships. whether that guy got those teammates through the draft or they signed with the team...or whether he chose, as a free agent, to have great teammates by going somewhere else. people bytch about that last situation but it's old-school stupidity...which basically that boils down to "oh, it's only okay if your gm surrounds you with the talent to win...otherwise it doesn't really count".

None of them were individual superstars, but every player in that starting five (during that 2003-2008 run or so) was a better player than anybody LeBron played with in Cleveland, and all of them were (or in Prince's case could have been) All-Stars during that time period.
Are you high? Wade is extremely injury prone and would end up injured before any of that happened. He was injured for TWO PLAYOFFS IN A ROW and had to stop playing back to backs and be rationed throughout the year, just to be healthy for the playoffs.

Paul George put up better numbers than Wade too......I guess Miami should trade Wade for him huh

Only white folks talk that he left Cleveland shyt. Y'all just need to admit it was an easy out teaming up with the two guys the way he did. It took away potential title contending teams and watered down the already watered down EastOK, what was he supposed to do?
Win one in Cleveland by himself like Jordan and all the greats did?
lebron knew bosh/Wade were really good/great already when he chose them. We didn't know kobe would be great, we ain't know Pippen would be great. Not saying Bron was wrong just stating it's easy to team up when you know you picking the best cause they had already been doing it 7 years prior.the only people still clinging to this are kobe stans, fakkits and retards...3 things that are rarely mutually exclusive.

In garbage time for most of those games and PG is the number one offensive option on that team. Wade and Gasol are the number 2 options on their respective team.
Like I said, Wade was injured during both of the Heat's championship runs and Wade literally put up worse stats than JASON FUKKIN TERRY did during the Mavs run.
Wade is still a great player but he Doesn't have the durability or body to be a number one option on a championship caliber team which is why he's let Lebron take over. You keep shytting on Gasol like he wasn't dropping 19 on 58% shooting and pulling down double digit rebounds throughout the entire playoffs. Gasol was fukking good and a legit star back then. Not a superstar but top tier player easily.
But what other option did he really have? You're right in the fact that what he did was unprecedented, but he did what the Cleveland front office couldn't do for 7 seven years. Find some capable teammates.
And the East being weak has more to do with poor management than 2 players leaving their teams imo. Hence, why LeBron left.
