With D-wade winning the NBA Finals MVP...

I think this puts pressure on LeBron. The cavs need to get some role players to play alongside the King, if they can duplicate Miami's success.

No pressure. They're buddies and would probably laugh at all of them guys posting "Wade vs Lebron" threads.

Re: With D-wade winning the NBA Finals MVP...

There's absolutely no pressure on LeBron. At best, James and Wade have a "gentleman's rivarly" which isn't a rivalry in the tradition sense, because both guys are so humble and kind with one another.

The media keeps trying to pressure LeBron James as if he still needs to prove himself. The older attempts at this followed along the lines of, "The Nuggets went to the playoffs, so LeBron has to have a great sophomore season to prove he's the true ROY." Or new lines such as, "Wade won a title, so LeBron has win one right now to prove he's the best from his draft class." I don't think James is worried about that stuff. He isn't feeling pressured to prove his worth as a basketball player because his basketball speaks for itself. And it will continue to do so.

^Yep. Lebron is 3 years younger than Wade and wouldn't even be a senior in college yet, he has a LONG time to develop his legacy and win a championship.

Re: With D-wade winning the NBA Finals MVP...

To be more accurate it puts more pressure on management to build a team around Lebron.

We have no one anywhere close to being as good as Shaq (that saying something too as Shaq clearly ain't the player he once was but Z was literally terrible in the playoffs). Eric Snow makes JWill look like an All-Star. Hughes post injury wasn't even as good as Posey.

The Cavs as a team have a long way to go but Lebron played really well in the playoffs so I don't think there really much heat on him.
