The better question is whether the other 2 starters plus the bench will be able to muster up 20-30 PPG in order to win the 45 games that Morey talked about.
I would hope so. A triple double in the modern NBA seems so out of grasp. I'm curious if Lebron can close in on double digit assists now that he'll be teamed up with players that can put the ball in the hoop.
they said the same thing when boston got their big 3. trust me, those 3 are unselfish and will make some scrubs better tan they really are. they'll win 55 games EASY, barring injuries.
Are you getting a boner for this team or something? This is nothing to get excited about. Dumb thread.
Wade would be the primary scorer on this team while Lebron would be the all around guy a la Pippen...Wade simply has a better offensive arsenal despite what everyone says. Wade 25/5/5 Lebron 20/9/6 Bosh 20/10/1.5 blks They'll surprise teams next year like the Boston Celtics did in 08 playing a relatively balanced and team based offense and defense. Riley and his staff are no fools... Mario Chalmers is the luckiest guy on earth right now, he's going to look like a poor man's Rondo with these three players and become famous soon.
you know lebron scored more, and more efficiently, and is a better 3pt% shooter right? he might just win another MVP next year when he averages a triple double.
On the Heat I think he can focus on doing the other things while Wade can focus on scoring. There's no benefit from both Wade and Lebron being the go to guy..that creates problems.
It doesn't matter anymore to me. I've lost a lot of respect for LeBron. (Not like it matters to him anyways, lol.) He's the best player in the NBA to me and he decided to join forces with a top 3 player in the NBA. That's just not right to be honest. LeBron could of went to the Bulls, been the #1 guy. He made a bad decision.
i didn't like how he made all this into a soap opera. but how can you lose respect for the guy basketball-wise on the court? the dude wants to win. and you only win if you have talent on your team. and if you're the best player in the NBA, you'll still be the best player in the NBA even if you play with kobe or wade or dwight or whoever. if lebron is really as good as he is, i expect him to still be the best player in the NBA when next year starts, and still wins the MVP. can you imagine if lebron can win the MVP with wade on his team? that would elevate his legacy even more. and it's very possible that will happen.
Of course, because MJ played with scrubs like Pippen, Kerr and Rodman, right? Right? The bulls are just as good as Wade and Bosh with scrubs. Rose is a top pg in the league, and Noah+the rest of the bulls could equal bosh alone.
