Here is our very first "That's Debatable," proposed by our very own Dr. Hoops Let's Get it On!
Dr. Hoops: Which guard would you pair up with The King if you had a choice? My gut says wade - he is a proven champion. But rose is more of a point guard and might allow for a more structured offense.

I guess this is the inevitble "What If..." conversation about Lebron James big decision last offseason. So let me make this even more dynamic and argue all the positions he could have been in.
Lebron to the Knicks:
Who knows how this would've panned out. I mean they had a completely different team prior to the trade deadline. But, had Lebron lnaded here, his guards WOULD have been Raymond Felton and Danilo Gallinari with Toney Douglas off of the bench. With Wilson Chandler still hanging around and Amare on his way with Lebron, the Knicks would've been a power house. But were talking Guards here, so for that arguement this was probably the worst set of guards Lebron could've ended up with. Consensus: WACK
Lebron to the Nets:
Young Team, Money to Blow. The thing is that if Lebron came here, Deron Williams would probably have still ended up here and that would've been what I think was the best combination for Lebron's talents. But that is purely because of Deron's ability to dish the ball and not needing to be the go to guy. Consensus: 2nd Best Option
Lebron to the Bulls:
Lebron and Derrick Rose. I can see the ESPN Headline already, "The King of Rose's" But, there would be way more hype on this situation then necessary. This pairing for Lebron would not be THAT MUCH different from the pairing with D-Wade. Rose is a scorer, a PG that can take over the game when he wants to. He controls the ball, the offense and the tempo. He is just too young to be considered 'Wade-Caliber' ... yet. Yeah they'd be great, but I'd guess the Bulls would actually have a WORSE record because they'd have less focus on working as a team like they do now and more focus on utilizing their two studs. Consensus: Not as much a Match Made in Heaven as one might think.
Lebron to the Heat Well, back to reality. Wade and Lebron are the pair we can see, hear and touch. They are immaculate together. Their awareness of eachother is unparalelled. Like two friends, a "batter pack" if you will, you find teaming up at a pick up game and just taking everybody to school. If the NBA was a 2-on-2 League, the Heat's Duo would be undefeated. People said it couldn't work. But these two starts are SO Different, that their incredible gifts actually blend perfectly... now if only the rest of the team could pick up the slack more often. Consensus: Lebron's Best Situation, D-Wade
Rondo, Lebron, and Howard with some good 3 point shooters and defesnsive players
Now were just making up dream teams... What is this NBA2k!?
