Getting this team to the NBA Finals a bigger accomplishment than the 2007?

I think so.

LeBron has carried this team like no player has carried a team since, like George Mikan? I dunno.

I am not a huge James fan, but fricking wow. Dude is amazing,

His most consistent teammate in the playoffs was...maybe Kyle Korver? Tristan Thompson?

This is insane

WHy does he get so much credit for carrying a shitty roster? He's the reason it's shitty. He forced out every other player capable of consistently creating their own shot.

This argument has already reached a point of diminishing returns.

He made it clear it was Kyrie or him, and then told management he didn't think Thomas was a good fit once he got healthy.

Lebron essentially made Cleveland pick between him and multiple other players. So yes, he made the deals because that's not even a real decision for the Cavs.

The OT game vs Detroit is where I started liking Lebron. He completely took over that game.

Personally I am tired of Cavs v Warriors but I cant root against him. Gotta admire greatness

Everything I have read on the subject is hearsay.

Have you read any direct quotes from involved parties?
