2017 Cleveland Cavaliers Are The Best LeBron James-Led Team, Per Richard Jefferson

LeBron James has been a part of some of the best teams in the league over the course of his career. Although he wasn’t fairly lucky in his first stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers, he eventually enjoyed a ton of success for the most part and established different championship teams in different franchises.

As there have been several winning teams that ushered the NBA under LeBron’s wing, basketball junkies and fans are wondering for quite some time. Recently, ESPN’s ‘The Jump’ made it to Twitter and asked whether this year’s Los Angeles Lakers are the best team that LeBron has ever played for.

As a former teammate of LeBron, Richard Jefferson took the question into his own hands and suggested that the 2017 Cavaliers stand out among the rest.

“Our 2017 Cavs team was the best LeBron team because we had that confidence and knew we could do it. Better than our 2016 team”
