I do not think the team under-achieved last year even with him being a ball hog so to speak if that's really what you think. You act like the guy never passes the ball. Simply not true.








Again the main difference to me is you equate the rest of this Cavs team to the 80s Laker teams.








unbelievable







I don't. I think LeBron has to score a bit more than Magic to make this team most effective. Sort of like Jordan wasn't dealing out 15 assists per game for the 90s Bulls. I don't think that team would have been as good with him doing that. He was an over 30 a game scorer for those teams. I'm not comparing LeBron to either Magic or Jordan, but really, you can't think the supporting group of players for Cleveland is that good that he can average 14 assists per game? I mean Jabbar and Worthy were hall of famers. This Cleveland team ain't got that...sorry. I know you love those other guys to death, but they ain't Jabbar or big game James.






You need a whole student body to think for you.





What are James greatest assets?



Huge threat to take it to the hole....vision...great passing ability.



Does this sound like maybe he might make a good point guard?

He would be better than Johnson.



There's an old bromide saying ....you can win it all if you don't care who gets the credit.






If you do not understand that James does not undertsand ---then you are lost. That's always been my issue with him..that lone issue.You can run for evidence and other WITNESSES...but the story plays out nearly every game.


Unless some more key components get back and get in shape and there are no more major injuries the Cavs may not get by the first round.



If the above does come to pass.......the very best they will do is lose to the West in the finals. They will never win it all with this team as it is unless James changes his game.


He can average 14 assists simply by dropping off 7-10 shots a game...and passing. He doesn't have to have two hall of famers with him. He would be that good if he only would gave up THE CHOSEN ONE idiocy.



So until James wins a title playing the way he does now----you can spew until Whothefucl<areThey gets something right.......you will still be dead wrong.
