This Myth That LeBron James Makes His Teammates Better.......

[Professor Emeritus]

LMAO. People really thought a team led by Oladipo was legit? A team led by Jeff Teague legit? A team that featured Roy Hibbert legit? GTFOH

You just randomly picked three teams from different years, one of them a mere first round opponent, and didn't even name the best player in 2 of those squads.

Just admit that you lost the argument, pushing the narrative that poorly is embarassing.


"A team led by Gordon Hayward legit? A team led by Jonathan Simmons legit? A team led by Mike Conley legit?"

"A team led by Aaron Brooks legit? A team led by Deron Williams legit? A team led by Carmelo Anthony legit?" - that was all from the same postseason too.

That's cap especially in the east

The Cavs were the 4th Seed that year.

Meh



Small sample size but the “Weak East” always been kinda shaky cuz it don’t make sense. Whether it was Brons teams or other top teams.

There was never this big gap like Lebron (or other top teams) had like 70+ wins and they other teams (2 seed and lower) had 40 or less win records.

Also, that narrative in deeper investigation ends up doing the opposite of its intentions cuz then it’s gonna reveal that Eastern teams winning championships (Brons teams, Celtics, Piston, Wade/Shaq Miami) are >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> than the West championships

Since they faced harder opponents in the west

He rarely went against any super stars in the east the Celtics were the best team and he had to have a super team to beat them and the other best player he went against was rose who was basically playing by himself and once again he needed a super team

This isn’t accurate

Therefore, it’s not true. No need to really have a back & forth on that because it’s just false.

But it don’t even matter

The only thing that really matters is “Who was the FINAL BOSS?”

And his FINALS BOSSES have been some of the best Super Teams made in NBA history

Not too many teams from the 50s-90s beating those Spurs & Warriors teams
