They were the 3 time champions at the time Lebron first faced them in 2007, with their first title being way back in 99.
And if you had read my previous posts in this thread you would note that I gave Lebron a 'pass' on his first NBA Finals, as I recognize he was only 21, it was just his 3rd year in the league, and his team was mostly garbage. So I'm giving him a mulligan there. Last edited by TomBarndtsTwin; 05-07-2018 at 03:37 PM.. |

How great would Lebron's defense be if he was allowed to hand-check people?

Once Jordan left, outside of a few players/teams, it was a lot of low-scoring brutality. A lineup of Starks, Mason, Oakley, and smith just didn’t do much for me (seemingly every single Sunday)

Not imo. He would have played the way they played back then and at 6 8 and 250 lbs [same weight as most of those huge physical guys of yesteryear that were WAY bigger than him] he could have fit in pretty well. And those guys would have played like they do today if they had came up like that... |
