Notice how many names you just mentioned. More than one name right? A TEAM!!! My whole point is I like winning as a TEAM than winning as one player. Yes they are all talented but they put their talents together to be super. If one player is gone, they can still win. One person is not carrying a team and not one of them came straight out of high school and with as much fanfare than Lebron.

Ummm, no.

Every time Jordan went to the finals, he won. And, gasp!! He stayed on one team. Between bouncing back and forth between teams and losing half the times he went to the finals, Lebron is not there yet. So....umm...good try. If Cleveland loses the finals again....watch him bounce another time. Because a good example of beating adversity is going back and forth between teams. Uhhh.....yeah.
