Will Anthony Davis suffer the same fate as Bosh and Love?

[bobopenguin]

Bosh + Love + AD

TOTAL # of playoff series wins before and after LeBron: 1

LeBron has 35. Keep up.

AD never spent his time in the weak @ss eastern confs.

west confs playoff appearence:
Lebron = 0
Davis = 2

[Lebron23]

25 year old Bosh w/o LeBron: 24/11/2 on 52%
26 year old Bosh w/ LeBron: 19/8/2 on 50%

25 year old Love w/o LeBron: 26/13/4 on 46%
26 year old Love w/ LeBron: 16/10/2 on 43%

25 year old AD w/o LeBron: 26/12/4 on 52%
26 year old AD w/ LeBron: ?

An interesting thing to note is how Bosh & Love's production AND efficiency were simultaneously stymied by Bron ball.

Will AD become the first big man to thrive alongside LeBron?

Fun fact: All three regular seasons from Love, Bosh, and AD prior to joining LeBron were better than any season of Pau Gasol's career.

Bron ball turned him into a legit mvp candidate.

All these fakkit meltdown threads are hilarious

Kblaze was absolutely beasting in this thread

And of course now that Davis is thriving and leading the Lakers in several categories, including scoring, the criticism now is that LeBron's being carried

Excuse for what?

Who is looking for excuses for the most successful periods of a guys career?

Excuses are for bad things. None of the shit you’re talking about matters in any way but the superficial. Those guys were popping champagne running around going crazy having reached the pinnacle of their sport. Dennis Johnson wasn’t all nba first team and scoring 20 a game on the Sonics or Celtics title teams but if he’d stayed in Phoenix doing that you wouldn’t even know his name. Harvey Grant got to be the Bullets leading scorer. Horace Grant got to win rings. Virtually nobody even knows Harvey Grant existed.

You’re worried about shit losers play for.

LeSuffering Fate

The poor bastards dont even know how shitty their life is for making multiple Finals and reaching the pinnacle of sports success.

Just look at them. Poor sad guys had to win rings instead of dropping 28 in December

The poor bastards

Yes, multiple bastards.. lebron always needed TWO offensive stars to win anything

Heat's 3rd option > everyone's 2nd

[GimmeThat]

no, but his G/SF has turned into Delonte West/ Mo Williams

[LukeWalton]

Bosh had physical issues
Love had mental issues
AD only has facial hair issues

[NBAGOAT]

well since we're reliant on hindsight bias seems like not having a 3rd guy take shots allows you to still put up numbers. With Bosh it seemed like he would be good post lebron as a 1st option on a balanced team but we'll never know because of the blood clots. for love he's obviously declined too. He be putting up 20 a game at least if he hadnt on these cavs teams.

Also it seems like 27 teams in the league have decided a big should get out of their guard/wing way now. Carlisle straight up wanted kristaps to just be a floor spacer early in the year and it's partially why kristaps has only put up 20 when has the talent to put up 25 and luka can shoot unlike younger lebron. He relaxed on it later when luka got injured but even when porizingis posts up, it's usually a quick face. Still mainly a pnpop guy and rim runner. Embiid and Simmons have disastrous fit issues.
