      Lebron had every right to leave cavs failed to surround him with another superstar only reason he should get hate for it is that press conference he held with Wade and Bosh "not 1 not 2 not 3"
      But also keep in mind that "The Decision" raised more than $2 million for the Boys & Girls Club
      So looking back at it was it that bad?

      More broadly speaking, most of the players who "jump ship" do so toward the end of their primes. And theyll still be in those primes or a year removed for 2 or 3 years and get like two titles out of it.
      LBJ, in his early/mid prime, won 2 with the Heat.

For example Steph Curry is 4-2 in the Finals. While we can always bring up the 3-1 lead blown, you don't really hear that anymore because hes 4-2 in the finals.

    I think the lack of defense being played contributed to the whole”dunks are boring” trend. Cuz they definitely still are amazing to see especially when you see someone who doesn’t normally do it throw one down like kyrie. Shit was a rim grazer an it still was a top dunk last season. But if 6/10 times someone touches the ball it’s either a fast break or a wide open cut it gets repetitive. As for the dunk contest that’s still amazing they can do that but there’s only so many dunks that are humanly possible an not many in the nba got the Kilganon package. So there’s only so many times you can see a windmill before it almost becomes the norm

    Two things: #1 define Superteam. Some of these teams we consider super teams, pre-Heatles are only considered such based off of hindsight and success. Name more than 2 of these pre-2011 “super teams” where the star players intentionally teamed up via free agency. (I’ll wait). #2 the Celtics big 3 came together through trades, and the ages - KG 31, Allen 32, and Truth 30yo. The Heatles??? LBJ 26, Wade 29, and Bosh 26. Big difference with what Lebron started versus what happened in the past.

      @@HighStakesBBall The 1969 Lakers was not a front office move. Wilt forced Philly to trade through trade demands and he wanted to go the Lakers cause Wilt felt he was able to have more access to white woman in LA compared to Philly.
      Barkley did the same type of move KD did but possibly even worst. When Barkley was with the Suns, he lost to the Rockets in 2 consecutive playoff years which was the 94 WCSF & the 95 WCSF where Barkley choked a 2-0 lead in the 94 WCSF and choked a 3-1 lead in the 95 WCSF.
      After that, Barkley joined the Rockets 2 years later by Barkley demanding the Rockets trade him to PHX with Charles in verbatim saying “I’m excited because I called the shots. When push comes to shove, I think you have to stand up to the system.”
      Wilt & Barkley didn’t leave their teams as FA’s but FA was different back then & you couldn’t do the FA process the same way you Lebron did in summer of 2010.
      The difference is that 69 Lakers failed as a superteam and were only able to win a chip with just Wilt & Jerry in 72 with no Baylor who was out that whole year with a serious injury.
      The 97 Rockets failed bad by not even reaching the Finals. You can’t use they were old argument when the MJ Pippen Rodman Bulls & the Stockton Malone were old too & went consecutive years in the Finals in 97 & 98

    ⁠The Celtics absolutely pulled off the first super team.
    Was it because KG/Ray/Paul Pierce were older is why it’s not viewed as super OP? Possibly.
    But they pulled off the first super team.
    The Heat was the first super team to unite 3 players in their prime.
    KD joining the Warriors was the first super team built where the joining player was in his prime, he was leading an already competitive team, and the team he was joining was already a super team and had eliminated him months prior.
    There’s no way you can criticize Bron, but then make excuses for the Celtics and Warriors, when Bron had the most understandable circumstances.
