What would happen if LeBron James joined the Warriors?

[Jasper]

It worked just fine. The Lakers lost that year for three reasons. Karl Malone had a knee injury at the worst possible time, Kobe was in a place where he had enough of hearing how great Shaq was and his play reflected as much, desperately trying to get Finals MVP, and they ran into the best defensive team's best defensive season for who knows how many decades if not ever, and they lost.

Their play together worked quite well on the court outside of Kobe wanting Finals MVP. It was the perfect storm of bad circumstances because that 2004 Lakers squad beats most champions throughout the 2000s if not all of them.

2023 LeBron would not help these Warriors because he would hinder ball movement and he doesn't do enough defensively enough to make up for that fact.

1) Kobe said nothing bothered him , he just wanted to compete at the highest level each and every minute

2)

do you even watch lal play?

This one is for Johnny32

[Im so nba'd out]

80 win season?

Literally the 2 best players on the planet on the same team.... 80-2 wouldn't be out of reach

[Johnny32]

can you read a joke

you seem even more stupid with every post.

This thread like this from LeBron Fans just proves why he’s not the greatest. No one was saying or needing to say stuff like this for a guy like Jordan. What ifs. And buts for all the excuse making and narrative spinning. They don’t see how embarrassing this is?

Exactly.

And they probably STILL don't understand how pathetic these kind of scenarios are

Exactly.

It’s pathetic and cowardly.

Do you hear MJ fans saying what if Michael Jordan was on the Bad Boy Pistons or Magic’s Lakers, or Bird’s Celtics, or Hakeem’s Rockets or Barkley Sixers or Suns?

You don’t need to make stupid hypotheticals, because he won with what he had.

All these LeBron fans are cowards, just like him, always needing to team up with great players instead of saying hey, I’m gonna take down the best team. I can’t wait to prove myself and **** them up. That’s what a real competitors says. All they need is just enough help. Not overkill. Or dream teams with at minimum two all star level players.

A guy like Kobe literally wanted to get off Shaquille O’Neal’s team in his prime, so he could prove himself as a competitor and a great player. LeBron and Kevin Durant are like ******* in the exact opposite mold. Easiest route possible.

[Hey Yo]

Nobody said that about MJ cause he didn't play a 20th season.


Kobe would have signed with lottery Nets his rookie year if he wanted to prove himself. Instead, he chose to come off the bench for his first 2 seasons for LA

[theman93]

He wouldn't work with Draymond offensively. And if they traded Draymond their defense would suck even worse.

82-0

I have NEVER heard an MJ stan fess up and admit “He went 1-9 because he just wasnt good enough to carry a team.”

They always have some kind of excuse.

Lebron fans dont have to make those excuses because Lebron made ten finals. He succeeded with multiple casts and multiple coaches. There was no “lightning in a bottle” where he had success with one consistent group but failed in every other scenario.

It’s that simple. Lebron didnt go 1-9. MJ did.

[hold this L]

Can't happen until the 24 summer. Bron can't be traded this season, and next season the only way to make it work is if Klay is being sent on the other side (or it's a 3 team deal).

Well it depends on the lineup and who they are dumping/adding

SG - Curry
PG - Poole
SF - Wiggins
PF - Lebron
C - Kuminga

You got Lebron running point forward, Draymond on defense with Wiggins/Poole/Curry with Klay coming off the bench as a sixth man (and taking a huge paycut) then yeah that team can win
