Bosh is an 11x All Star and an Olympian.

The notion that he's not part of a super team, especially in 2010, is hilarious

Let me ask this: to all those who say Bron started this, if Curry, Klay and Dray were all on different teams and decided to team up would you consider that a super team?

If those guys with their current status teamed up, it would be a super team. Especially in 2010 before players started doing it.

So is Bron.

Doesn't diminish the talent.

So at what point in his career did LeBron join a super team?

i think there's limits to all things. we're seeing the limit. i don't think guys meeting up in free agency or being drafted or traded for matters at all. there aren't rules to what is ok for a super team or not. but financially this shouldn't be possible. the nba has work to do.

is this the best starting 5 in NBA history?

god shammgod · Post #13 » by **god shammgod** » Tue Jul 3, 2018 4:14 am

they're gonna have to possibly limit salaries per team. 2 maxes at most which are even higher than now and the next biggest contract can only be something like 60 percent of the max.

I don’t even know what this means but yes LeBron started this

Cousins done already spent a quarter of his contract making threads criticizing him disappear.

Answer the question, at what point did Bron join a superteam like KD and Boogie. After all he started this right? Here’s the cognitive dissonance kicking in, LeBron never joined a super team he created one, what Boogie and KD are doing is joining super teams.

LeBron joining a super team could have happened with the LA Kobe/Pau/LO/Bynum or Celtics Ray/PP/KG years, but that never happened.

yeah ok- Lebron single handly out played GS's TRUE super team on their home floor in game one to only have his own coach hand the game over to GS...Yeah he's soft. The only player in the history of the nba to go back to his home town
who burned his jersey- with his family- knowing that his owner was a hater and still delivered 4 finals appearances and a chip- yea hes soft...just get over that he didnt pick us in 2010 and salute and respect the brilliance that hes given us in basketball - as a player and GM- lol- and stop fooling your self...

In the modern era, yes by a mile. There's no team that comes this close to having this much talent within the last 30 years.

2010.

Forming one vs joining one is a meaningless distinction to me.

The main decision is the same. It's the best players in the game choosing not to compete.
