Cowherd gets the LBJ argument
From his opening and I think I have these stats right. The Spurs without Leonard and the Warriors without KD are a combined 17-3. The Cavs without LBJ are 0-6. "He's a traveling dynasty."
To take it further back to reinforce this argument, Jordan retires and the Bulls still go to the conference finals. If LBJ retires this tomorrow, the Cavs don't make the playoffs next year.
How people don't respect and understand how good LBJ is mind boggling. He's soooo much better than anyone currently in the league it's not close. Him not getting the MVP every year is laughable. All-time, the only other player that belongs in the discussion with him is MJ. That's it.
