How do you think they are faring this season with LeBron in place of Kobe? Top seed in the West and clear favorite imo
82-0
And then watch Lebron freeze up in the Finals and lose.
they would win the west easily. that frontcourt would be terrific...
and lebron actually tries to involve his teammates
Lebron= 9 years 0 les.
Yeah until the pressures of the moment and he becomes the frozen one. Lebron needs to win a le then we can talk..
this is the reason I said that they'd win the west.
I don't know why, but LeBron in the Finals seems to lack determination or will.
In 2007 it was "excusable" because it was his first time and he carried a ty cavs team there when nobody expected them to be in the Finals.
But no excuses for last year, he chucked big time. The Heat should have won against a Mavs that were not as good as they seemed
Not just a le will do, Lebron needs to be the reason they won a le. Not just piggy backing on Bosh and wade.
I fully agree with lakerddan.
Lebron doing a Kobe won't do.
He needs to be the main man, and not choke in the finals.
The 11 Heat overachieved, they had 3 top players, a solid sixth man, but that was it. They were bad at PG and C positions. The Mavs didn't have as much top players, but that was a very solid team. LeBron could have played better, though. The 07 Cavs overachieved, too. Kobe never played well in the finals, except in 09, and that was because the Magic didn't have good wing defensive players, which is very unusual for finals teams.
LeBron is much better than Kobe, in particular he's an better team player.
If Gasol could carry 6-24 to the le, he'd be able to do the same for James.
Brilliant regular season team, but fail in playoffs.
Lakers would at least be the best team in LA.
So an improvement?
LBJ is consistent for the most part until the playoffs, probably 2nd seed. Guaranteed 1st/2nd round fodder though. Same result with Kobe, but he wouldn't fold under pressure, just shoot the game away.
How is he a better team player when his teams never win squat? Also kobe only had 2 bad finals 2000,2004. He avg 26.8 pts 5.8 reb, 5.3 ast. 51.4 pct shooting in 2002. 24.6 pts, 7.8 reb, 5.8 ast. in 2001. 28.6 pts, 8 reb, 3.9 ast. in 2010. 32.4 pts, 7.4 ast, 5.6 reb in 2009. So he played well in 2001,2002,2009 and 2010 and O.K in 2008. Check your facts or stop making crap up..
Why do people act like Kobe hasn't folded under the pressure in the playoffs and that's all Lebron does?
Because Kobe has played well in the finals and Lebon has not.
Kobe has also always had superior teams and Kobe has had numerous terrible games throughout the playoffs and finals, especially in elimination games. Lebron has certainly choked away some finals games, but the playoffs aren't just the finals; he's had dominant playoff performances as well.
That's it and that's all.
Wasn't the Heat supposed to be the greatest team ever on their way to winning " 6,7, 8 les"? what happened?? Lebron chocked!!!
Saying that doesn't change the fact, Koolaid_man.
