If Melo joined Wade and Bosh in Miami instead of Lebron, do they win any titles? (alien.top)

Imagine in this hypothetical that Lebron doesn’t exist and by 2014 KD is a young GOAT. In this scenario, Melo goes to Miami instead of Lebron, do you think they win any titles? I was talking to a friend about this and I think they would be lucky to get one in 2011 but it would be tough for them to even beat the bulls. After that I think they don’t get out of the East and even if they do, the Thunder and Spurs would beat them.

This is a great question. I think Peak Lebron arrived during the win vs the spurs. This was year 3 of the “Heatles”. That Lebron could do anything on the court when he wanted whereas the previous 2 years he was a bit passive and trying to accommodate D-Wade because it was “Flash’s” team offensively and testing the waters on defense. I think Melo steps up and also acclimates to the situation and win at least 1.
