What are the Top 10 Greatest Seasons By Teammates of LeBron (1 Season per each player) 

Post#1 » by RSCD3_ » Mon Mar 6, 2023 11:17 pm

Was curious to see how valued each of LeBron's teammates were compared to each other over his long career.

Caveats:

1. They must be seasons when they played with LeBron so no 2014 Love or 2009 Wade. Only years where they were teammates.
2. Only one season per player, so we have some more versatility amongst these lists.

Excited to see people's lists and any reasonings they care to include, might make a thread for other players in this vein

I think 2020 Davis is first with 2011 Wade second maybe...2017 Kyrie likely third too

At first blush I'd have '11 Wade edge out '20 Davis, then take a Bosh season over Kyrie. Probably a Love season in 5th. Would have to dig in some more after that.

2011 Wade
2020 Davis

2017 Irving
2011 Bosh
2018 Love
2006 Big Z
2009 Varejo
2016 Tristian
2009 Williams
2013 Battier

HM: 2018 Korver, 2013 Birdman, 2015 Mozgov, 2016 JR, 2020 KCP, 2004 Boozer

So many role players. Like how do you chose between Andy & Tristian? Birdman and Mozgov both showed up midseason and single-handly changed both teams entire bigman rotation. Korver was 1-half of the best clutch duo in the league on a team that out performed their Pythagorean by 7 GAMES!

Good list but I take the 2017 version of Kevin Love over 2018.Love was just awful in the 2018 playoffs!

2011 Wade was an animal. Thoroughly outplayed LeBron himself in the Finals as well.
