Sorry, one team letting Lebron down can be dismissed, but two doing it is just a pattern. It can be argued that it's Lebron himself that turns any help he gets into such pathetic messes.
True, he must be the reason Wade never developed a consistent perimeter game or why Bosh decided he didn't want to post up anymore. Also, it was his fault wade missed all those floaters, also it was his fault the fan who ordered Budweiser got bud light.
The Anti-LeBron comments are so pathetic it's comical. People are desperately searching/inventing reasons.
What I find a little disappointing with Lebron is his lack of aggressiveness. Clearly, his teammates didn't have it. When you shoot 58-60% pretty much every game v. the Spurs, you would assume he would take more than 15-18 shots a game. The Heat probably would have lost whether James averaged 35 points, but he had to lose on his terms. But he's still the greatest player in the world. He has about 5 top years left. He still has a chance to become the #2 player of all time when he wraps it up. He won't touch MJ that's for sure.
You don't "choke" if you avg 28.2 ppg on 57% shooting while contributing 8 assists 4 rbs and 2 steals per game in the finals. You don't "choke" if you have the highest WARP and any other positive adv statistical measurement by far and your team still loses by 15+ points in consecutive loses. As amazing as Jordan was, I don't think he would have been able to cover up for the rest of Heat's deficiencies. Replace prime Jordan for Lebron and he would have lost too.
If Lebron were to come to Houston these same ones calling him a quitter and choker. Would be the first one jumping for joy . Lol
I do think Lebron has peaked. He looked physically exhausted in the playoffs. Something I've never really seen before.
Lebron, Wade, Bosh. Lebron would start on every team in the NBA, obviously. How many teams would Bosh and Wade not start on?

When Westrbook got hurt earlier in the season, KD's number GOT BETTER. Let's not use Wade's health as a scapegoat. If Lebron is truly a "King" and proclaimed best player on the planet, then he's supposed to do anything to not lose. Yes he put up nice numbers, but there was no fight to keep the game close when in counted. He looked perfectly fine with letting the game slip away. No fight, no forcing the action, nothing. That's why I chuckle at these premature GOAT conversations. Misinformed fans overcredit Lebron every time they win, but when they lose it's mainly someone else's fault. Which one is it?
Eventually, yes. This is caused by him being the best player in the Nba. His teammates are blanketed with a sense of security that with a game in danger he'll step it up. Their tenacity drops. At the same time LeBron is fatigued. This causes young players to never develop to their potential because "oh well ill never surpass him" and other star players to diminish because "oh well i will always only be considered Robin."
