why can't you answer my simple question then? how many games could lebron (10 games rest, 51 wins in the Least with MVP Kyrie and Love) single handedly have carried the rockets with RA as 2nd highest paid player and MDA's elite playmaker dependent system and 8-man rotation to last year?
LeBron carried career losers without Kyrie and Love in the 2015 playoffs with a broken jumpshot and crazy mileage. Get this weak Harden fanboy **** out of here. LeBron is a legend with more focus and maturity in his left nut than Harden has in his entire body.
Probably 60? Dude you are being ridiculous. LeBron is in another stratosphere compared to Harden. You think Harden has a potential to be the second greatest player of all time?
I'm saying a no-star team in the west. harden can carry farther. so why Lebron he need 10 games rest and only got to 51 wins in the least with Kyrie and Love last year?
Because he knows that's all the wins he needs in the East to make the finals. All LeBron cares about now is rings. He could give two ****s about regular season records. If he was in the West where seeding matters significantly more, he would have easily pushed last year's rockets team to 60 wins. LeBron was Lecoasting for half the season and he still had a first team all-nba mvp caliber year
you honestly believe Lebron wanna play here without Harden? With Anderson as the 3rd highest player? and no starting SG & backup PG? LOL
so he needs at least 2 superstars in the east to win a championship right? if he coasted and rested last year? why he still got beat by Durant?
He needs one other superstar against the current 'greatest team ever assembled'. LeBron never played with two superstars. Love hasn't been a superstar for years and Bosh was really never considered a superstar either. LeBron also consistently lead his scrub teams to the NBA finals .
LOL I thought he only cares about rings? howmany rings has he won with a scrub team like the rockets last year? so Lebron needs 3 other superstars? and you expect Harden to win it all with just half a superstar?
You are a joke. What the **** are you talking about LeBron James has won 3 championships and has never had 3 superstars in his team. LeBron James has been to the NBa finals as the best player on his team 6 times dude. Harden -0. There is no comparison. You had the sympathy of the GARM in this thread because yes it's annoying when posters post hot take trades of Harden and dismantling the team but when you resort to absurd defenses like this, you lose the narrative. LeBron James is significantly better than James Harden.
I said last year. He didn't win with 2 superstars (1 of them MVP calibre) on his team. He had 10 games to rest so what's his excuse to losing to Durant? It was basically 2 MVPs vs 2 MVPs right?
Because the Warriors are significantly better behind their two best players than the Cavs and are you comparing the duo of LeBron and ****ing Kyrie Irving to Curry and Kevin ****ing Durant? Dude just stop. Quit embarrassing yourself.
so if Lebron can't beat GSW with 2 superstars (1 of them MVP) & championship calibre team how do you expect Harden to beat GSW with only an injury prone star? what rockets roster do you want to see to beat GSW?
I think this team needs to worry about beating the Spurs and Thunders of the world in a best of seven before taking on the greatest team ever assembled. And how does that help your point that Harden can lead teams as well as LeBron?
No, what would make you conclude that? If Lebron swapped places with Harden, I would have almost no worries that the Rockets could beat the Spurs in a best of seven. LeBron doesn't fall apart and wilter when teams start hand checking and pressing him. He is still deadly efficient when teams try.
so if you were Morey you would offer to trade Harden for Lebron right now in a heartbeat?? you're pretty sure Lebron can bring this Rockets team closer to a championship this year right?
