Agreed. But how are you going to say if he was in Cleveland by himself he would've won? He obviously didn't want any part of postseason pressure until last year when he came through.
He dominates his way up to the Finals as hands down the best player in the league. Then he reduces himself to role-player status in the Finals and Wade steps up to playing at a "best player in the league" level.
If James even played to half his ability in that series it would've been quite enough as Wade was destroying shit.
While were on topic, LeBron is having quite an amazing stretch. But this isn't new. Will he keep it up in the playoffs all the way through? Last year he did. I think he will continue to this postseason.

as with previous champs, the Heat won't repeat
Originally posted by Darth MartinLeBron's potential is well above Wade's. Wade is a calmer under pressure but when it comes to the complete player it's not even close.

Originally posted by Darth MartinWade isn't as strong as Lebron is or even close to being so. James is also a much better rebounder.
Disagree. Wade can do everything LeBron can when he's on his game. That is just the thing though. LeBron is much more consistent and Wade is far too injury prone.LeBron just has certain advantages. But I do agree with him having a greater potential.
James has 4 inches on Wade. Hardly impressive.

Don't get me wrong. LeBron is better. But when they're both on the top of their games(Wade seldom is anymore) they are very close.
But, as I previously stated, LeBron's current streak of high efficiency shooting has been incredible.

No, Kobe was the best player in the league and now it's LeBron. His ceiling is higher than wade's.
