Max Kellerman & Rich Paul compare LeBron going to Miami to KD going to Golden State: “The closest thing LeBron ever did to being anti competitive was the best situation. Even though they didn’t win all 4, 2 of the best 4 players in the world playing together on... the same team, and adding another high level all star to a Pat Riley team. It rubbed people the wrong way. Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett, & Paul pierce have less value on a basketball court combined than LeBron James, wade, and Chris Bosh. And it’s not that close. So that’s not the same as LeBron going to Miami. - Can you name a championship team that did not have somewhere between 2+ juggernaut of talents? Dating back to the 80’s? The Heat didn’t have a strong center but respectfully if you have LeBron James, Wade, & Bosh back then Dean could start at center you’re going to win a lot of games.” - Max Kellerman Rich Paulshow more

They’re two different things. One is going to be 42 years old when the season starts and the other joined in his prime after blowing a 3-1 lead

The way they wanna downplay Bron to the sixers is wild. You got four bonified stars and an up-and-coming star in your starting five. How is that not considered a super stacked team? Anything to control the Bron narrative…

I really don't understand why Max Kellerman is ridiculing himself by even participating in this fake BS podcast, where it's all just about promoting LBJ. So now his opinion is invalid because he didn't play basketball? Then why do a podcast with him in the first place? Pathetic!

I hate that Rich Paul plays dumb! He knows Bron stacked the deck in Miami. He didn’t see three guys who were that good drafted top 5 in the same draft team up with each other in their primes

2009 & 10 lakers did not have 2+ Juggernauts Kobe was great. Pau Gasol was a good big man but wasn’t in the top 5 bigs. Lamar Odom was decent but wasn’t an all star or anything like that at that point. And they went back to back . So that shows you didn’t need 3 Great players

Gregus Dobbler2 months ago

I fully agree. It was anti-competitive. And only KD's move has topped it since. But he (partially) redeemed it with 2016 and then KD did his thing and the miami thing seems mild now. I will also say I dont consider the other teams Lebron helped built to be remotely the same.

If he think the Heat not having a peak starting center was an issue, then the Warriors losing Bogut for the last 2.5 games of the 2016 finals means something afterall.

Max Kellerman says LeBron doesn’t deserve criticism for teaming up with Dwyane Wade in Miami to win Rings and it’s not the same as Kevin Durant joining Golden State: “The fact LeBron was thought so highly of, as was Dwyane Wade, the sense was if you put 2 of the top 3 players in the world together, you’re trying to make sure you can’t lose. Then with Bosh and Pat Riley, you’re giving yourselves an unfair advantage. What people found was, it’s so hard to win a championship, in retrospect they went to 4 straight and won 2. They didn’t win 4 in a row. It’s not the same as what KD did. LeBron does not deserve the criticism. The championships he won were as valid as any that anyone ever won.” (Via Game Over)

Stephen A Smith says the biggest issue with LeBron going to Miami, is Pat Riley would get all the credit if they win a championship: “If LeBron James goes to Miami and helps them win in Miami, Pat Riley gets the credit. It’s Pat that went out and got Giannis and then LeBron… the champion is the executive that’s pulled it off again in his 80s.., LeBron is just the latest player he acquired to help elevate their franchise and the Pat Riley mystique. If you know anything about LeBron, he prides himself on being more than that.” (Via Stephen A Smith(

The Miami Heat’s pitch to LeBron James is being the best basketball fit, per Ramona Shelburne “That is the Miami Heat’s pitch to LeBron James that they are the best basketball fit for him. Their pitch to him is ‘look, we have Bam and Giannis. That is the best back line defense you could ask for. You’re not going to have to play this small ball 5 like you did in LA.’ — the longer this goes on the more I hear the Heat as a destination”

When you look at them getting Giannis, and then Tim Hardaway one of the best 6th man 3PT shooters in the league. They’re going about the business making themselves attractive to a player like LeBron…. With the Miami Heat, to have a guy like that to sort of glue everything together, that to me is more intriguing from a winning standpoint.”

Max Kellerman says LeBron James should’ve won Finals MVP in his finals losses several times: “The MVP should usually be the best player on the championship team. It’s 10 teams in each conference. That’s two thirds of the league still playing after the regular season. Your guy(LeBron) should’ve gotten MVP on the losing team of the finals alot of times. Because clearly his team was outmatched in the finals. Cmon, LeBron in 2015 against the Warriors? Clearly by far the mvp of the series. They gave it to Iggy, because he defended LeBron. They also gave it to Kawhi in 2014 because he defended LeBron.” -Max Kellerman Rich Paul
