Zach Lowe: "When you get Lebron James..Coaches will get fired, Draft Picks/Young Players will get traded to get him his help, but Lebron will take you to the Finals (barring any injuries). He will not lose in the Conference Finals, he will not have a blip in the Second Round..that's the payout."

Zach Lowe in the Lowe Podcast went over how getting Lebron upends the franchises, you will see how him getting there uproots any rebuild no matter how talented they may be. However, when you get Lebron James you are basically paying for the BEST chance at getting to the Finals out of anyone else.

Fun Fact brought up in this Podcast: 41/74 of the Finals in NBA History feature either the Lakers or Lebron James.
