    KG only played one healthy season in Boston though. They were a tough defense, but they were only a legitimate contender in 08 and 09 before he got hurt. He'd recovered by 2011, but he was out of his prime at that point (as were Pierce and Allen). Doc is also a better coach (some say he's overrated, but he also had Thibs at the time).

    I do think prime KG > prime LeBron, but looking at each season;

    2011 - Mavs gameplanned against LeBron well, and he fell short...he needed to improve his post game and shooting, which he did.
    2012 - Championship, with Bosh missing a lot of the playoffs and Wade getting his knee drained.
    2013 - Championship, Wade wasn't the same player in the playoffs (out of his prime at this point), ran into a tough SA team in the Finals.
    2014 - Spurs were a great team. I do wish LeBron forced the issue and drove/posted up more. he had a dominant series shooting the ball (something like 60% shooting on 11 attempts per game, 50% on threes), but his makes were mostly on single coverage. Since his supporting cast wasn't making shots (and Wade looked awful), it would have helped if he attacked the paint more. Miami would still lose (SA was hitting too many contested threes and their passing was on point), but it would've been more competitive.

    I'd say during the 2013 regular season, Miami looked truly dominant. Though Boston before KG got hurt in 2009 might've been even better.

    First of all, Bosh was injured for almost that entire series.

    Second of all...

    Again they won right away and if they teamed up the same age as miami big 3, they wouldve won more. Hell they even have tied it if not for the rigging in 2010.

    Yet idiots really believe miami is better. LOLOL that IQ

    and they were past past their prime. And there would be no game 6 if not for the refs. They were just a 40+ win team for a reason. Meaning not anymore contenders yet miami still needed the refs

    They're similar impact players, and KG is less ball-dominant.

    I don't have a GOAT list, but if I did, KG would rate very highly. I know he's polarizing so I won't get into specifics.

    This is what im trying to say tho. Boston is just a better team despiter lesser talent.
