    Default Biggest Myth In Sports:Lebron James Makes His Teammates Better

    [COLOR="Magenta"]What teammates has he made better?

    This myth has been going on forever, but the FACTS are that nobody he's played with (players of note) have had their best seasons playing alongside LeBron James.

    Carlos Boozer? Best seasons were with Deron Williams


    Zydrunas Ilgauskas? Best season was in 2003.....before LeBron

    Ricky Davis? Best season was in 2003...before LeBron

    Larry Hughes? Best seasons were with Gilbert Arenas
    Ben Wallace? Best seasons were with Chauncey Billups

    Delonte West? Best seasons were with Paul Pierce (and with Gloria)

    Mo Williams? Best seasons were with Michael Redd in 07 and 08

    Antawn Jamison? Best seasons were with Gilbert Arenas

    Shaq? Best seasons were with Kobe

    Hell, Anderson Varejao? Best seasons were after LeBron left

    Dwyane Wade? Aint been the same since LeBron came to South Beach

    Chris Bosh? Aint been the same since he left Toronto. Went from putting up 24 and 10 to putting up 16 and 6[/COLOR]

    If anything makes it easier to lose a player of his caliber it's that I held my breath whenever he had the ball in crunchtime. I still haven't forgotten that stretch were he was force fed the ball in the clutch and failed again and again. I believe he was more effective when he was forced to post-up more and you could see it translate into wins.

    I hope he doesn't regress in that department in Cleveland for his sake because at the end of the day, the playoff's are about matchups and the Spurs seem to have him figured out. Do I think he makes his teammates better? Yes but only when he is shooting well from the perimeter because when he isn't other teams just dare him to shoot and clog the lane. When he isn't driving the lane he isn't creating easy shots for others.

    Yeah playing with one of the top 5 scorers will decrease your ppg. Ppg isn't the be all end all measurement. What star player would have made bosh score MORE than he did in Toronto as a #1 option? Not even Cp3


    A bunch of the dudes you listed were washed up by the time they got to bron. How does that make your point at all?

    Almost everything the OP is incorrect.

    I wouldn't even know where to begin.

    im a big lebron fan, but this is true

    in reality, you need a TEAM to win championships

    no one guy wins by himself / single-handedly makes his teams better

    magic is probably the closest in doing so
