I'm gonna be generous and say half, so 3 appearances and 1 ring. I mean it's ridiculous how easy his path is to the Finals in the East year after year.

LeBron cannot carry a team to a title like Dirk, Kobe or D-wade.

While there is no doubt he's an athletically gifted talent, the fact that he stays in the East and has to team up with 1 or 2 other superstars just to have a chance in the Finals bothers me. If not for D-wade and Ray Allen he would be 0-for

Literally impossible to say and your general point is laughable.

All in all, a trash thread.

Yeah he owes his career to Ray Allen good call

If he was on a team that won the west three times, and the east is so shitty, then why would he only have one ring?

I don't think you know what a fact is.

He did go to the Finals without anyone.

Yeah and Kobe didn't win without Shaq or a young Pao. Jordan had Pippen. D Wade had Shaq, then had LeBron and Bosh. Nobody wins one on their own. Old argument is old.

Weird you would say this since he is better than all of these guys. Dirk truly brought his team a championship, but he's still not as good a player as Lebron. I say this despite the fact that I'm not a Lebron fan.

Out of all the shite in OP this was the part that bothered me the most what team in a Lebron-less east was going to beat those Miami teams?

Really Dirk is the only one I can think of that has ever done it "by himself" even though that term is asinine when talking about a team sport like basketball.

Can you get back to me with MJ's playoff record without Pippen? TIA I'll wait.

Which team would you like to hypothetically put him on in the west?

Just realized I was too caught up in all the awfulness of the OP that I had forgotten to downvote.


Fixed my mistake, though.

Wouldn't matter. He would attract other talent and be in contention in only a few short seasons.

How many wins would Henry Rowengartner have if he wouldn't have fallen on his arm and maintained his arm strength?

What team would he be on?

I think he'd have more titles.

You're an idiot.

Dirk is probably the only superstar in the last couple of decades to win it without another superstar. And the Pistons are probably the only team to win it without a superstar, but they were a team that had very good to great players at every position.
