Can lebron win a ring without multiple all stars?

can LeBron win without multiple all stars

 

[gordontrue]

Nobody can. A quick brush up on some NBA history will make that crystal clear.

A select few have managed to win one championship without multiple all-stars (Rick Barry, Bill Walton, Dennis Johnson)... but none of them won multiple championships without multiple all-stars.

Don't forget about the '04 Pistons.

This a sad thread, its value measured in tears.

 

[starbigd]

A Lakers fan made this thread? REALLY???

 

[logic]

Don't forget about the '04 Pistons.

They're the exception to almost any championship rule that is stated.

I agree w/ you.

Plus, werent they almost all all-stars the next year? Or was that a few years later?

But yea, pistons were the exception

Opened thread and this is the first option I see

no- thats why he left cleveland and miami

Kids take notice. This is why you should stay in school.

 

[trojanfight]

Perhaps I should have been more specific. Outside of his own teams Miami and this upcoming season with Cleveland who else in recent years had 2 other all stars? Not solid players but actual step above consistent all star players. The shot at the Lakers isn't relevant. In the kobe and shaq days there wasn't a 3rd all star ever. Sure maybe in the 80s. With this current cavaliers team who else has 3 all stars in the league? You could say technically okc. But big difference offensively between ibaka and Kevin love. How many times this upcoming season will critics like me say sure the cavs win again but it was the Kyrie and Kevin love show that won the game.

How about the 2010/11 Mavs?

Was Kidd still considered an Allstar at the twillight of his career?

He was still very effective. But, a Star?

Tyson or Terry?

Some guys played big.

* Barrea, Marion, Terry, DeShawn Stevenson etc..*

But, Dirk is the only guy I'd consider a bonafide Allstar that year.

Ahhh a Lebron troll thread. Good to see the OP in midseason form.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Duncan won in 2003 as a one star team.


Parker and Ginobili were unknown roleplayers who would later blossom into stars within a few years. Robinson was old and essentially a grinder who played defense and rebounded.

 

[True Lakers Fan]

No player can win a ring without other star quality players - Michael Jordan had Scottie Pippen and others, so did Tim Duncan and Tony Parker, Kobe and Shaq, Kobe and Gasol, Wade and Lebron and the list goes on.

Quite frankly I considered Ron Harper to be all star quality, and I thought Rick Fox was pretty straight as well, not to mention Horris Grant and Robert Horry who both had won championships with other teams. That Lakers had talent loaded up from 1 to 12. Without those other players Kobe and Shaq would have had zero rings

D-Fish has always been clutch, dude's got ice in his veins.

Exactly my point when I said from 1 to 12. Fisher actually as a starter in the two last titles was more like a #5 guy - but without him we would not win. I wondering though why Trojanfight is trolling the Lebron fans though

Game 3 of the 2010 NBA Finals in Boston where Fisher took over and hit 4-5 shots in a row in the 4th and put the Lakers out of reach will always stick in my mind. Kobe only made 1 shot in that quarter and without Fisher we possibly lose the game, and after losing home court advantage to the Celtics in the first two games, we quite possibly lose that series.

NBA is a team sport?

In other shocking news, water is wet, Ben Affleck movies suck and Hammer still hates all things Boston.
