    Default Why couldn't LeBron do what Kawhi and KD did?

    That is, team hop and then leave said team with a winning finals during the time they played there?

    I mean, if you are going to team hop, at least do it so that when you leave that team you can hold your head up high as a winner.

    Kawhi - Team hops to Toronto, then leaves. Result = 1/1 @ 100%
    KD - Team hops to GSW, then leaves. Result = 2/3 @ 66%
    Lebron - Team hops to Miami, result = 2/4 @ 50%
    Lebron - Team hops to Cleveland, result = 1/4@ 25%

    Can lebron win the trifecta and go 0/1 in LA making it 3 team hop failures in a row? Would that be the first time in history when a player failed to have a winning finals record on 3 different teams all within the same decade?

    Who in their right mind would stan this fraud?

    Why couldn't LeBron do what Kawhi and KD did and finish on a positive note instead of a negative note, despite having hopped to more teams?

    Plus he never took an entire season off because of an injury (possibly a fake one in Kawhi's case.)

    No, Raptors never won a finals before Kawhi joined.
    GSW lost before KD joined (beating a depleted cavs team in 15 doesn't count)

    KD and Kawhi efforts resulted in a winning finals recorded when they team hopped, while Lebron's team hopping resulted in a losing finals record.

    Lebron just isn't on the same level as them.

    Umm, the Heat were a winning team, you do realize they won 47 games with just Wade and added two other top 10 players? Wade had already led them to a championship at that point while Lebron got swept in his only Finals.

    The Raptors had never made the Finals in franchise history and were just a good Regular Season team with glaring weaknesses that held them back (Valanciunas' defense, DeRozan not being able to shoot the three), so they weren't any more successful than the Heat team that James joined. Warriors blew it without KD, they had maybe the most dominant Playoff run in league history with Durant with a 16 - 1 Playoff record with 15 straight wins.

    Lebron joins the Lakers and they go from 35 to 37 wins, great.
