That's such an asinine argument. We'll never know if those guys would have left because they had ideal situations. Where would Larry Legend have left for? His team was loaded.

Spew out whatever shit you want. Older school guys like Jordan, Bird, etc I bet if you'd ask them they'd say it's tainted. Lebron is good....just not good enough. Regardless of how many rings he wins in Miami, THAT will NEVER change.

I don't really think he was that great either. Again, subjective...

To win in the NBA you have to have at least 2 great players. There was only one great player in Cleveland. He could have at least 2 if he went to Miami, and then Bosh was just icing on the cake. Nowhere near their level, but still pretty talented for a big man
Bosh commited to playing for the Heat before Lebron, so therefore, Lebron followed both of them and Bosh wasn't "icing on the cake", if anything, Lebron was.

didnt know a nice playoff run equates to a top 50 player of all time.

As far as the original topic, wonder if this guy joins Mike Brown in LA? Seemed to have a bit of success when he was with the Cavs...

Lol. Pointless to even discuss this with you. Obviously the point went over your head. (Pippen was a great player with and without Jordan). Jordan never won anything without Pippen

You seriously believe that Lebron made his decision on ESPN that night? Come on, get real. Lebron knew exactly what he was doing.

not that night. Bosh made his decision days before, though.

And I do think Lebron wouldn't have joined without an allstar big
