If we had lebron

If we had lebron on this year's team could we have beaten the warriors in the first round? Remember KD wasn't fully healthy

We wouldn't have played them in the first round if we had Lebron

Haha that's a very valid point

Really? I hate these points... it adds absolutely nothing to the discussion. OP post a question about a hypothetical situation where we do in fact play the Warriors in the first round with Lebron.

Ya it adds a whole new side to the discussion. Where's ur input on the topic?

What if Lebron was only allowed to play in sandals?

What kind of sandals? Double strap that hold down the heel? Some sandals may not hinder his game much

Tevas or Chacos?

Think about it like this: If Lebron had Dame, CJ, and Nurk, would he have beaten the warriors? The answer is yes

With KD not fully healthy and assuming the team/LeBron had time to practice up together and he didn't just get thrown in here yes.

If LeBron just joined randomly before the series or KD was healthy and we still had no Nurk then no. If KD and Nurk were both healthy then honestly IDK, I'd give us a good shot but it's a tough call.

Great analysis. It would definitely take some time for the blazers to get used to playing with lebron
