      Shaq was ring chasing and traded around the league without kobe and wade on his team. Lebron lost with even STACKED super teams lol so what u said is impossible to believe lebron and especially shaq arnt good closers at all they miss free throws and rely on role players to make the big shots.. lebron loses in finals with prime shaq more than he wins guaranteed.

    First thing is LeBron played against Darvin Ham and Darvin Ham couldn't guard Bron, IME Udoka played against him and IME Udoka couldn't guard Bron even though Ty Lue was on his way out Bron played against him, that is why LeBron isn't impressed by their coaching 😂😂😂

    Shaq is not the first person to say that LeBron is a great leader and a great teammate. I almost believe and I kind of want to research this… almost believe that LeBron does dumb shit or says dumb shit to take the focus off of his teammates when he feels that they have too much pressure on them. We seen what he did with his son Bron, he put too much attention on him so he tweeted something and then later deleted it so that all the attention went to him and ridicule and criticism. DLO shoots 0/7 and then that night he says it’s just basketball everybody kind of forgets that D’Angelo Russell shot terribly and they just make meme meme and edit after edit of LeBron saying it’s just basketball and ridicule him and criticizing him.
    I feel like it’s going to come out when he retires that he takes the heavy blow from the media so that his teammates don’t have to so they can focus. LeBron already been through the media to the highest level. That’s my theory I want to research it

      Having followed Admired the hell out of LeBron’s entire career, I never actually considered this as a possibility. But he is so savvy, intelligent. And that goes beyond having the best basketball IQ ever. Every word and move This man is made since he was 17 gets over analyzed and scrutinized. He knows and exemplifies being a legitimate leader in multiple ways. He is vocal. he is the first one in the gym and has the best almost maniacal work ethic. But also, he knows how to take pressure or focus off other teammates and put it on himself

    Shaq anywhere near his peak easily wins one with Lebron but that changes everything, maybe he doesn't get another one, imo while 2011 is his worst moment & people clown him or say the goat debate ended, he needed that loss, because the next year he came back more skilled bigger stronger wirh 1 goal, sometimes you gotta hit a low before you rise

    I don't get it. Shaq says he wishes he would be in the GOAT conversation. I think he is, together with Duncan. For 10 years prime Shaq and Duncan shared champions. Actually Duncan should have been in the Finals and beat prime Shaq and Kobe if not the Fisher 0.4 shot following one of the most clutch shots from Duncan. But as Gill said, in a all time Draft, I would pick Shaq first before MJ, LeBron. It feels weird to say, but Shaq is actually underrated

    This is why I always laugh when people dismiss LeBron's first tenure in CLE. The Cavs bent over backward and then some for LeBron. They almost always gave him exactly what he wanted (or needed) to be successful, and anyone with a brain that's not poisoned by LeMedia propaganda can see it.
    No other player in NBA history has had as much influence and control over their destiny than LeBron. Not Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem, Magic, Bird, Jordan, or even Shaq. Keep in mind that the league actually changed league rules for a few guys on this list!!
