Saying this is exactly the same as saying then that winning wasn't Kobe's ultimate goal. There's no difference in the 2 statements.
No. Again you are failing at this.
There is at LEAST a third option: going to a decent team that doesn't have 2 other top 5 players you are buddy buddy with at the time.
That's why I said BEFORE the decision baby Bron should go to CHICAGO. Sure they were good, but it would have been more legit bc Rose hadn't exploded yet. It would have been HIS team from day 1. Not Wade's.

Why would someone go where they are less likely to win?

Are you this dull? What happened in 2011 and in what sequence?
The point is the same regardless.

And wait, Bosh is/was a top 5 player now?

Why didn't Jordan, Bird, and Magic team up?

For the same reason Kobe didn't. The talent came to them, which makes all of their situations different than Lebron's.
Jordan = Bulls
Bird = Celts
Magic & Kobe = Lakers
Those teams are never struggling for superstars to go play there.

They didn't have to, they had fellow future hall of famers on their team... LeBron had Boobie Gibson

That is what you're telling me while whining about LOGIC?
Priceless.

Winning BY ITSELF is not the ultimate goal for COMPETITORS. They want to win more than anything in the CONTEXT of a challenge/competition.
That's why Lebron isn't really a competitor.

Why are you asking? They could have had 15 titles EACH if they took a "pay cut" because winning BY ITSELF is everything.
I guess by your logic, Lebron is a bigger winner than any all-time great before him because he ran to Miami.

That one will wrap up today's logic discussion.
My work here is done, though it's not hard when you do the work for me.
