Finals. Supporting cast better than in Cleveland and would have a decent bench when healthy.

That less talented team was one one of the best defensive teams in the league for several years.

They also were abolutely useless on the court offensively if Lebron wasn't playing. They had almost no other shot creators on that team aside from Lebron.

:D

these Lebron threads are awesome


Lebron couldn't even get past the ECF with the Cavs for years, why would you think he could lead this Magic team to the finals? Ridiculous.

He couldn't even win it with two franchise players alongside in 2011.



I don't think they win it all by any means. But that team is a Finals contender in the East. They already have a better supporting cast than most of his Cavalier teams. Boston, Knicks, Nets.....Those teams aren't exactly juggernauts. Not to mention Orlando plays hard and has some guys that can run with Bron. Afflalo fits very nicely playing with Bron alone. No way they are lower than a 4th seed.
