With Labron James being pretty much on his own with 6 other nobody's and willing 2 wins, let me see if you will buy this concept.

I grew up a wrestler. Wrestled and coached wrestling for years.

In basketball, L James is, pretty much, winning on his own. In baseball a single batter can go insane and hit three bombs and will his team to 5-4 type a game win. In football, Barry Sanders turned a terrible Lions team into a .500 type team. Renaldo or whoever blasts 3 goals, team wins 3-2. So on...

In wrestling you have 10 guys who are each responsible for scoring points for their team. You can have the no. 1 ranked HW in the country and he can only get you 6 points and you can still lose 54-6. I get that the synergy of a team is important but is wrestling not the most important "team" sport you can think of? What other sports requires such a need for Depth of talent? Golf team maybe?
