Probably lose 2011 although i wonder if a lebron who is the clear first option doesnr second guess himself and plays better based only on mental factors, toronto has everythingh needed to slow down lebron

I think he wins 2020 (i am assuming there is a 2020 lebron equivalent in the lakers?) He was a monster in 2012 playoffs but those lakers were really great too, coukd go either way

They win 2021

They may win 2022, i think if lebron gets then past boston without midds the ring is theirs

Somewhere between 1-3 rings, i would go with 2 to be safe

The bucks would be trading away some defense (even thougg miami bron was an all D defender too) but having a sizable upgrade in offense

I think there is zero way prime lebron with middleton + shooters + jrue has mediocre playoffs offense akthough i also think the twin tower setup would be less effective without giannis lenght

Bucks may play somethingh like jrue/middleton/lebron/portis/brook which would ve wild

They win both the Holiday years, lose in 2019 I guess. Win in 2020 if his main competition is Giannis/Davis Lakers.

Giannis/davis would be a weird but intriguing duo
