You all know I'm not a huge fan of LeBron, but I'd like pose a question that, imo, defends him and his legacy.
 
When, exactly, did Michael ever have to will a lesser team to a Finals victory? I honestly don't think that there was a better team than the Bulls when they won their 6 championships.

LeBron's been to the Finals with an inferior team 4 out of the 5 times he's been there. The only time he had a superior team, they beat the Thunder, who were just too young, at that point.

The other 4 times he's had inferior teams, and he's willed them to victory once (last year). It's absolutely insane that he gets criticism over his Finals record when 4 out of the 5 times he's had the inferior team. 
 
And yes, I do really think that Dallas team was better than Miami. They were clicking on all cylinders, in tune with one another, and had a far superior coach in Carlisle. 

I wouldn't even consider Spoelstra a top NBA coach. I'm serious. 
 
LeBron is so much closer to Michael than people realize. The criticism just makes people look stupid.

I think the Heat were better than Dallas, but then again, the Heat lost the series

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I've met Harden, Ryno, Dwight, Steph Curry, LaMarcus Aldridge and a bunch more.

I think the Heat were better coming in, but LeBron's performance in that series has to be a one of the biggest knocks of his career.

At least he's the best player on his team this year.

There's no fucking chance that the 2011 Mavericks were a better team talent wise than the Heat that year. That was one of the bigger upsets in Finals history

 

[buzzy]

Their supporting cast was still pretty shitty. Guess how many players are left from that 2011 squad?
Six.

Big 3 + Chalmers, Haslem and JJ.

You had Eddie House, Arroyo, Z, Dampier, Magloire and Jerry Stckhouse running shit.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

^ Don't forget Mike Bibby and Mike Miller haha

 

[elcheato]

I think its foolish to write off the Heat right now. They're probably gonna lose, but if they win tonight it's going 7

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Because they had so much success in the other games in Miami haha

 

[footballplaya52]

Like cyhi said more bets than the Dallas Mavericks

 

[Teagz]

I think its foolish to write off the Heat right now. They're probably gonna lose, but if they win tonight it's going 7

I agree

 

[buzzy]

If the Heat win two in a row I'd say it's going 7.

 

[elcheato]

They might need 4 in a row to get to 6

 

[Delirium]

I think if the Heat don't play well, they don't have a very good chance at winning the Finals
