proof that this year's MIA Heat is just like the CLE Cavaliers

[jzek]

Before I present the stats, two things:

1) LBJ has to put up 30, 10, and 10 just for MIA to have a chance to win... just like when he was in CLE (where the fukk is his help?!?!?!)
2) If LBJ is not on the court (whether he has fouled out or taking a rest), the offense is stagnant... just like when he was in CLE (case in point, game last night where Wade couldn't do jack sh*t to save/help his team)

Now for the stats (aka facts):

In this year's playoffs, here are LBJ's, Wade's and Bosh's averages in the playoffs:

* LBJ - 25, 7, 6 (pts, reb, ast)
* Wade - 14, 4, 5
* Bosh - 13, 6, 1

In LBJ's last year with the Cavs, here are the top 3 performer's averages in the playoffs:

* LBJ - 29, 7, 6 (only 4 PPG higher which is understandable)
* Mo Williams - 14, 3, 5 (nearly identical with Wade's averages)
* Antawn Jamison - 15, 7, 1 (nearly identical with Bosh's averages... dare I say slightly better?!?)

If only Lebron would have had a choice in deciding what team he plays for & who his teammates are

[Levity]

so what stars would you like to see lebron recruit or run to in 2014/15?

LMA and harden?

[tmacattack33]

Bosh is way better than anything Lebron had in Cleveland.

The 2009 Cleveland Cavaliers would be getting their azz handed to them by this Pacers team.

Without Lebron, Wade and Bosh were superstars.

In Cleveland none of the players were superstars without Lebron.

Case dismissed.

Yea he again has no help. I don't even think current Allstar teams would be enough for Bron..I think we should get a group of well trained scientists together to take DNA samples from Jordan, Wilt, Magic, and Bird and create clones of those players all in their primes! Then maybe then, LeBron may have enough help around him. But wat if LeBron's style of play turns Jordan into a spot up jumpshooter?! Oh lord, god no! Then we must turn those same clones into humanoid supersaiyans or supersaiyan Monstars!

[ripthekik]

his style of play makes superstars into spot up shooters.

[tikay0]

This is why people hate Heat/Lebron fans.

Cleveland actually had depth and better interior defense. Superstar Bosh is averaging 3 rebounds a game this series.

lebron is the superstar killer. He turns superstars into role players.
"lebron makes his teammates better." yeah right.
all i see is him stat padding his assists from all those passes because he's too worked up about protecting his FG%. If he makes 40 passes a night to other shooters, he's bound to get around 7 assists a game.

Seriously, can we get a pass to assist ratio for this clown. I bet you he averages 50 passes to 7 assists.

None of those. He can just go to CHI next year and all of his problems will be solved: Noah will take care of the rebounding, Rose is an upgrade over current Wade and Bosh combined, Thibs is a better coach than Spo, etc.

but what if rose still isnt healthy next season?!?! and noah is still battling with plantar fasciitis?!?! That wouldnt be fair for lebron. Because according to you, he needs stars, and he needs them now!!! what he should do is buy the spanish national team, pay to make them an nba team, and play point forward for them. He'll have an Olympic caliber team surrounding him all season
