Don't really care what he or Kuz averages in regular season.
hopefully we get to see if they can perform big time in the playoffs
I agree...we saw Tatum and Brown get so much praise because they were contributing in the playoffs. I know if Ingram and Kuzma got the same stage, they would produce at the same level. Our guys just need better media attention, and we will certainly get that with Lebron in town.
My sentiments exactly. I was saying this in the playoffs last year. I think our guys if given that stage would have done well too... Plus they got the benefit of playing with an allstar all year (Kyrie)... We should expect to see the national media to finally come around about our young core by 30 games into the season

Looking back on Lebron's career, what players who played with Lebron benefited the most? _________________ Never argue with stupid people! They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience!! - Twain

He made Irving raise his game to another level, just because other players didn’t fit well with him doesn’t mean he doesn’t elevate players..
kyrie got older and wiser and with bron(or any other top tier superstar(KD) kyrie would've been in the finals and had a chance to win it all.
when you're as good as kyrie all you need is another partner to put you all the way on the map. bron didnt make kyrie better.
Bron surely didnt make Klove better.
Mo williams was a nice role playing baller with and without bron.
Jr smith was better pre bron.
Kyle korver was better without bron.
So aside from boobie gibson pre injury. who does bron make look better? i dont recall anyone.

As you said just role players...
Even Bosh and Wade were minimized with Lebron on the Heat.
I think a few players might do better with lebron.
Zubac
McGee
Hart/KCP
The rookie if he makes the rotation.
This very off topic, but does anyone know WHAT happened to Boobie Gibson?!? The guy was really able to stroke it from deep and reminded of a Seth curry. Seems like he was out of the league a year after LeBron left and never heard from again. Never tried to get back in the L and I never even heard of him overseas.

Lebron made Mo Williams an All Star. Don't twist that.
And it defines how you define "better" because you're going to get lazy analysis that involves looking at popcorn stats on BasketballReference and instead of contextualizing the information people are going scream that Lebron made those players worse. _________________ If Brandon Knight were to come out, I would take him number 1 in the draft. - Magic Johnson Mar 27, 2011

LeBron is very good at making a team play at a certain high level his 8 straight finals apprearances prove that.

LeBron is the best option so the other all stars need to cater to his game. Wade and Irving still looked great with him and they both need the ball. Other all stars like Love and Bosh were just star stuffing on mediocre teams. Make no mistake though, LeBron made every team that he played a championship contenders.
That's on Ingram, buddy... Kind of reminds of of when Dwight Howard came here with all the lipservice about working with Kareem and even posting a corny photo of him with Kareem and then NEVER doing anything with him...
See how I can draw my own conclusions about Ingram based on absolutely nothing? (Because truthfully we don't even know if he has or HASN'T worked out with Kobe)
Batsh-t, you were just kidding, no? He doesn't really remind you of Howard, that was just your attempt to prove a point. Please tell me that was just your attempt to prove a point. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL SEDALE TRIBUTE EDDIE DONX!
