Even though basketball is a team sport, but there are a bunch of times when a really good player or a star carried a bunch of bums or players that were mediocre to the playoffs. I'm pretty sure a lot of people are gonna name

drop Kobe for his great 05-06 year, carrying a team with Odom, who as great as he is, is 6th man, and leading the squad with Smush Parker, Luke Walton, & Kwame as your starting 5, so you can just imagine who worse the

bench would be. Lebron carried a bunch of bums in his Cleveland days as well. But, an underrated carry job that really doesn't get noticed was when Chris Bosh carried the 06-07 Raptors to a 47-35 record and a division title

with TJ Ford as his second best player, and he was a good PG, but after that its really just a bunch of bums with Anthony Parker as your 3rd leading scorer of all people and the drop off is terrible with life long bum & KG back

up Rasho Nestorivic, dudes name Pape Saw? PJ Tucker? I wanted Bosh & the Raptors to win against the Nets, but the Nets were too much with the trio of VC, J-Kidd, & RJ, & Nenad Kristic was ballin' that year too. Discuss and

talk about a bunch of stars and players that led a bunch of scrubs and bums to the playoffs.

I still don't know how Steve Smith was able to get those 98-99 Hawks into the 2nd round with a declining Mookie Blaylook and Mutumbo who was on a decline into a deep run in the playoffs in 1999.

McGrady in 00-01 and 01-02 takes the cake... Grant Hill was injured, so the 2nd and 3rd best players on the team were Mike Miller and Darrell Armstrong

Iverson carrying the Sixers to the finals in 01 is overstated... he may not have had a superstar along side him, but he had the Sixth Man of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, and Coach of the Year, it's not like he was playing with D-leaguers

Allen Iverson played with some bums, but at least he had a HOF coach. Lebron has bums and Mike Brown as his coach :scusthov:
