As rare as they come

[MVP]

Gaddamn and only 4 rings to show for it, jeez.

 

[ill steelo]

A Bron/Steph team wouldn’t have enough role players. That Big 3 model only works when guys are in their prime.

You need several guys doing the dirty work if you’re giving big minutes to a 40 year old and 36 year old

Nasty, nasty work.

[JD617]

The majority of the players on that list were not at their MVP/All Star/DPOY caliber selves at the time they played with Bron.

That looks like something sea manup would tweet.

[osh kosh bosh]

These lists work better when you didn't actually watch these guys play

I say this all the time but like we've been alive for all of this.

We all know who was washed and past their prime by the time they linked with LeBron.

We all watched it.

 

[finessence]

Out of those 26 players, 8 probably were past their prime. Everyone else was growing into, or at their peak

 

[worldbeefreeg]

I count at least 15 players who played with Bron and were way past their prime.

Shaq, Melo, Deron, Ben, D-Rose, Stack, Korver, Zay Thomas, Shawn Marion, Ben Wallace…

So 10. Not 8

Kyrie
Love
AD
Wade
Bosh
Mo Will
Boozer

We’re the only dudes in their “prime” rest of them dudes we’re chasing rings at the backend of their careers or babies when they were teammates.

Chandler, Rondo, Jamison, Rashard, Gasol.

Actually Jamison might've been backend of prime. But those others guys were past their respective primes.

Would take out Boozer. Bron only got to play with him his rookie year, which was Booz's second year.
