Answer 1

Answer 3

Yawn

Answer 4

If LeBron gets a good supporting cast, he will have a chance at a championship. But I see LeBron as the next Vince Carter. He's just a "highlight player."

Answer 5

no the cavs are getting better mayb when he is 25

Answer 6

HAHAHA man you are funny...............................HAHA... are you serious

Answer 7

WOW how is it possible that people can hate on MJ? All of you that say MJ wasnt the greatest player alive would probably say something stupid like maybe Bob Cousy was... Stop hating and just recognize greatness, MJ wasnt overrated, if anything he was underrated... People never talk about his 3, yet I remember one game where he just lit them up.... and do you call Charles Barkley, HAkeem, Shaq, Drexler, young Iverson, Mutombo, Robinson, Ewing, Drazen petrovic, a young derrick coleman, penny, Zo in his prime,  malone, stockton, payton, kemp, sabonis, grant hill and even (before he joined the bulls) Dennis Rodman a watered down league? I dont think so.. The NBA then was alot tougher than it is now...because for 1... Less teams meant more talent would be found on 1 team...2. Hand checking was allowed, which means that MJ was catching all kinds of forearms and elbows BEFORE he drove to the lane, something Kobe doesnt have to deal with now... 3... They had the Jordan Rules, and if you see a video of how that played out, MJ was basically in a 5 on 1 WWE match everytime he tried to score... I remember one time MJ landed on rodmans knee, while Thomas had his hands around his neck and laimbeer jumping on his back... and Barkley even admitted that if you tried to stick him, he would drive his knee as hard into your chest as possible, how many players now are even allowed to do this? If they were, floppers would be out of a job becuse no one would wanna do that more than once... So yea, the 90s werent anything close to being watered down..

LOL finally to the question, LeBron can win a title with the team he has now if he plays like he did in the 07 playoffs, now that he added another big time scorer im Mo WIlliams... Also, Williams is a PG...Something lebron has been craving for the longest, which means he can finally focus more on defense and eert more energy on that end rather than trying to run the offense and score for his team.. .He's gonna be much improved if everything goes like it should

Answer 8

It might take longer if he can't get the role players the bill and mJ had.  Bill Russells 11 rings is overated in the watered down 60's.  mJ is over rated as well.  Both players had great teams.  Bill russell had a better team than any NBA star ever did.  He was drafted along with 2 future hall of famers.  Not bad supporting cast for your first time in the NBa.  He had hall of famers on his team thoughout his whole career.  Their 8th man could lead the league in scoring if he went to another team to be the #1 man.  Celtics hall of famers all stayed with the celtics their whole career and that's why they were so great.  MJ had the greatest team ever as well.  MJ and Bill Russell are both ever rated.  Put them on average teams with one other star and I say they have great stats, and maybe one or 2 rings.

If MJ had Pippen and Oakley in his first year than they would of won rings right away like russel did as well.  Bill Russell was drafted along with Heinsoln and KC JOnes (both hall of famers.)  Cousy was already on the team.  So you can say those guys were the missing pieces not just Bill, but I do say bill is the best on those teams and the anchor.  You can say bill russell and Pippen are equal.  They also had the best clutch player in the game in Sam Jones and Havlichek came in and took cousy place to keep the ball rolling.  Take a look at his role players.  They were the best team ever.  MJ had the second greatest teamates ever.  Both are overated as far as winning rings are concerned.

Answer 9

lebron james got a good chance to win this year he has a great supporting cast if they can just fire that d**n coach and get anybody else they would take it

the coach is the only thing holding them back now  

Answer 10

I can't see him winning one in Cleveland!
