Heat: Lebron James is a top 5 player of all time..

[midnightpulp]

1 player can make a difference with ease if he can.. Lebrun balled but he still missed a ton of easy shots and free throws.

Lebron made a difference, despite going against a team that features the best overall small forward defense in the NBA. It wasn't an all-time great performance by any means, since he didn't shoot well, but Lebron was the least of the Cavs' problems. "Blaming him" is disingenuous.

Didn't you say that he makes everyone better?

Lebron carried the Cleveland Knicks as far as he could tbh

^ this

The fact that the Finals even reached 6 games, and that the Cavs were in it at the end, speaks volumes. Cavs will be right back in the mix next season.

He did make them better. I don't think Delly ever had a 20 point game in his career, and here he was having one in the NBA Finals. Mozgov also had a strong series.

They just had no depth and no player who could handle the ball other than Lebron.

where was the squad after the first 2 games. Friend killer, shumpert .. They disappeared quicker than 370 because Lebron started "hero" balling. I'm sure ur familiar with the ST vocabulary.

Like I said after game 3, their team performance wasn't sustainable. Delly, Shumpert and Smith aren't very good players to begin with, so the shots Lebron was generating for them were bound to stop going in. Smith was 0-8 from 3 in game 4, so he didn't disappear due to Lebron withholding the ball from him, he got the looks. He disappeared because he's always sucked. Same with the other two.
