I'm not sure you can make a sweeping statement like that. I think it depends on the players. By your definition, the Lakers 2001 team is not a "superteam" because they only had Shaq and Kobe. I would argue those Lakers were one of top 5 teams...

I agree, that's why I said it was a great performance in my 1st post on the subject. But there were extenuating circumstances. Both things can be true

You didn't, but there were extenuating circumstances for the comeback. Draymond getting suspended for one, but Curry being injured for most of the series was the big one. If James had have been carrying similar injuries he would have done his...

I could make a case for those 3 since 2 of them have won MVPs and AD has got a Championship. How Lillard got on the list though, just baffles me completely. No awards, no Championships and an extremely mediocre playoff career.

The list is already dated and it's less than 3 years old. Even when it was put out, how Dame Lillard got on it amazed me. ...and no Nikola Jokic. Even when it was put out he'd already won an MVP. His omission is just getting worse by the day.

I agree, it was just a nugget of information I happened to be aware of. Talking about Nuggets, last year's Championship team was the first team to win a chip without a single top 75 player on its roster in the modern NBA (last 60 years).

According to the NBA's 75th Anniversary team, they were not. I think prime Klay would have a case for inclusion as well to be honest.

Tim Duncan (2005, 2007). Kobe Bryant (2009, 2010).

I'm guessing you're talking about James here, and not Durant since KD has never beaten the Warriors. I'm also guessing you're referring to 2016 when the Cavs came back from 3-1 not 3-0. Also while Kyrie was young in 2016, he was also the number...

The general consensus is that Steph is a top 10 player of all time. KD is not. In a vacuum, there's not much between them, however, Steph's intangibles (winning, making team mates better, leadership etc...) IMLTHO make him the better player.

No doubt. He was great for the Warriors and they won 2 Championships with him. My problem with KD is that for all his qualities, with the exception of his years with the Dubs, no matter who he's teamed up with, it never seems to work. At some...

Durant really is a fraud. Like James, he's done everything he could possibly do to surround himself with "help" but without Steph he hasn't and never will win anything.

Nothing against the Lakers, but watching James lose - priceless. I'm just waiting to see who he throws under the bus for this one.

He scored a basket with 7.15 to play in the 3rd quarter to give the Lakers the lead at 74-55. He didn't score again.

It's nice here in Cancun. The water's lovely. ;)
