On Sunday, LeBron James put up a game-high 35 points, with a game-high 15 rebounds, game-high 9 assists and a game-high 2 blocks in a Game 7 victory against the Boston Celtics. The victory means the King will be making his 8th consecutive trip to the NBA Finals. What makes this trip so impressive is his group of travelling companions might be the worst he's had over his 15 years in the league.<\/p>\n

The only other All-Star on this team is Kevin Love and he missed Game 7 and only played 5 scoreless minutes in Game 6. The team did start the season with NBA great Dwyane Wade, former MVP Derrick Rose, All-Star Isaiah Thomas and NBA champions Richard Jefferson, Iman Shumpert and Channing Frye. But, midway through the season they were turned into Larry Nance Jr, Jordan Clarkson, George Hill, Rodney Hood and a 2024 second round pick. Those new additions contributed a total of 2 points and 4 rebounds in Game 7.<\/p>\n

Watching LeBron carry this team on his back while Marcus Morris was hanging on it reminded me of this 2017 video I saw by OldSkoolBall called \"The 15 Worst Players LeBron Has Carried To The NBA<\/strong> Finals.<\/strong>\" <\/strong><\/p>\n
