I understand that side of the coin, but on the other side of it is the fact that his team disappears in the playoffs, who besides Shaq had over 20 points in that defeat? I mean honestly James does spoil you guys he plays at a high level 99% of the time and is a fairly large reason the Cavs have had a resurgence, to compare his legacy to Michael's is different, because as exceptional and clutch as Michael was he had great players along side him, Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, Dennis Rodman, Steve Kerr, Bill Paxton, Toni Kukoc etc. I think Lebron took the foot off the gas to see what his teammates are made of, remember if he signs a deal with the Cavs this dude is prolly looking at 8 more years, perhaps he wanted to see the caliber of his teammates hunger and what do they do, lay a fatter egg than James could ever muster. You know what that guy did when he won his MVP he had his whole team come up and accept the award with him, he's taken a bunch of bench warmers on any other playoff squad and carried them on more than one occasion, let's not forget Lebron basically single handedly beating the Detriot Pistons 2 years ago, its funny how quickly people forget. I cannot stress enough how poor of a coach Mike Brown is, you have a squad young enough to feed into your gameplan, and all he does is play Lebron 38 minutes a game and pray he shoots a high percentage....their bench goes 8 deep, 8 DEEP!!! That means that 8 other guys never see the light of day, you can't build confidence and allow players rest when you don't give your bench any playing time. Don't sleep on Boston they may be old, but they have enough youth and depth in their bench to expose the Cavs main weakness everything but Lebron. :p



I had to LOL when you listed Bill freaking Paxton as a GREAT PLAYER! I'm guessing you meant John Paxson?

Of all those guys you listed the only great player is Scottie Pippen, the other guys were ROLE players, knew their role and excelled at it. I see that as different than being a Great player. Great players do many things well. Role players are really good at one or two things and know not to try anything else (or else MJ would have punched them in the face, as he did).


Scottie Pippen - Great Player
Horace Grant - Rebounds and mop up duty
Dennis Rodman - Rebounds, Defense
Steve Kerr - EXCELLENT shooter, but that's it
Bill Paxton - Great Actor
John Paxson :) Good Shooter
Toni Kukoc - Closer to great than the others besides Pippen, but a head case. So streaky, great players can't be that streaky.

Lebron has role players around them who know their roles, but I agree with Melissa...something is missing right now...but if/when he finds it which could be sooner rather than later (starting tomorrow?)...he can be AMAZING and cement his legacy, it's just a question of when.

I'm a big time Kobe fan and I think he doesn't get the credit he deserves for those first 3 titles with Shaq. At the same time though I can admit that if he didn't have Shaq he probably wasn't ready at that time in his career to really carry a team. He had the skills and desire to be alpha dog, but it really takes a maturity that you can't force, it has to be developed. He has it now without a doubt, but didn't then.

Lebron will get there, I really think he will. But it might be too early?
