How many seasons did LeBron have a 2nd option better than current Klay?

[SamuraiSWISH]

Current Playoff Klay 19 ppg 4 rpg 2 apg

Easily Better ...

2011 Wade: 25 ppg 7 rpg 4 apg 2 spg 1 bpg
2012 Wade: 23 ppg 5 rpg 4 apg 2 spg 1 bpg
2016 Kyrie: 25 ppg 3 rpg 5 apg

Arguable ...
2013 Wade: 16 ppg 5 rpg 5 apg 2 spg 1 bpg

I'm a massive Wade fan, but '13 Wade has no argument over current Klay. None.

[34-24 Footwork]

Kyrie is the only one that comes close, but Lebron would do major damage with a shooter like Klay.

As opposed to a who? The 4th all time in NBA 3pointers, in Korver?

So 3 seasons in 16 seasons LeBrons 2nd option was as good as Warriors 4th option?

Yea. Warriors are stacked. We know this ... they’re either the best team or second best team ever in terms of extended period of dominance. Second or arguable greatest dynasty ever. Then it’s like a three way tie with the 80s Birds Celtics / Magic Lakers and 00s Shaq / Kobe Lakers.

And LeBron beat them in 2016 without another all star teammate?

Nah that team didn’t have KD. But in 2016 for context.

Steph / Iggy were hobbled

Bogut injured

League assistance with Draymond suspension

League assistance with Curry in foul trouble game 6

And idk what you were watching. Bron played with two perennial all stars. One of them that put up 27 ppg in the series and hit the championship winning shot. And had a former 6th MOY off the bench for good measure.

The numbers says there isn’t a huge gap. It’s arguable.

Irving, JR, and Shump were hobbled.

Bogut injured

Love injured.

League assistance with Draymond suspension

Did the league also anticipate this and give him a couple of flagrant fouls in the earlier rounds?

League assistance with Curry in foul trouble game 6

You did not watch the 2016 Finals, did you, "coach"?

The other team not only had 2 perennial All-Stars (one is the 2nd GOAT shooter and the other a DPOY), they also had an All-Star/All-Def/FMVP as the 4th option. Not to mention the COY.

Learn basketball, "coach".

'13 Wade was ****ing great in the Finals. He had that "Flash" Game in Game 4 when they could have potentially lost the series in 5 with the old 2-3-2 format and he had a great Game 7. Wade didn't score as much in the first three rounds but he's a better defensive player than Thompson. He was also the better player in the Regular Season.

[TheMan]

Klay averages 4-5 points below his regular season average in every Finals

It's a dirty little secret that Klay is a shit Finals player

He isn't better than Hornacek (see stats in previous post), let alone Wade, Kyrie, Love, or Bosh - these guys' stats blow Klay away - not remotely close

There you go

he was great offensively from the closeout game to the rest of the finals too. Much better onball player, creator (for himself and others) and slasher than Klay can hope to be

also Wades play during the win streak was on a much higher sustained level than Klay has ever had in his career

Are you perpetually on crack? I always defend Wade's Finals, when an idiot LeBron stan tries to say that he was a net negative, but he had like 3 good games out of the 7. He wasn't "****ing great" in the Finals. Wade's defense wasn't that great in the '13 PO's either. His knees got ****ed up and he was mostly average on the defensive end. Not a liability, but wasn't better than current Klay.

Wade's '13 RS shits on anything Klay has done this season though.
