What's new

2020 Annual All-Time NBA Draft

LeBron does have one championship that doesn't have an asterisk. The year he more or less singlehandedly took out the warriors. Otherwise he has been a coat-tailer. Just like KD.

KD never won a championship, he just got a ring handed to him from the single best team in the modern era. The warriors would have won with or without him. In fact it could be argued that he messed up their chemistry and took them down a half a notch.

I personally think LeBron would have two more rings if KD hadn't joined the Warriors.

I think the warriors would have won. But it's possible. I still don't think KD made them that much better to be honest.
 
I think he made them unbeatable, and made me really hate him/GS. They were one game away from sweeping the entire postseason.
Yeah but I do believe that his absence would have just made a few of those series go to 6 games or something. I think they would have still won.

And we share the same sentiment on him and the team.

That there is no possible way adding a top 3 player to your team does not make you better.
 
Sorry about the delay. I’ve been in meetings all day for a new job. Haven’t had a chance to even look at this yet.

I never said he didn't make them better, I said he didn't make them that much better. I did say that an argument could be made that the chemistry issues he created also held back the team somewhat. The year before he arrived they won 73 games. The next 3 years their win totals went to 67, then 58, then 57. Why didn't they stay in the high 60's if he made them that much better?

I think they would still have won it all whether he arrived or not so his presence did not matter in their title chases. That is my opinion on it.
