Put LeBron on the National Champion UNC Tar Heels and they'd be an NBA playoff contender according to Caron Butler (@realtuffjuice) pic.twitter.com/fjWa8URbEe — Herd w/Colin Cowherd (@TheHerd) April 25, 2017

Former NBA all-star Caron Butler believes LeBron James is so good, he could take any NBA team to the playoffs - yes, even the lowly Brooklyn Nets. In fact, Butler told Colin Cowherd he believes James could help the North Carolina Tar Heels make a run at the NBA postseason.

"You could put LeBron on any team that didn't make the playoffs, and they would make they'll playoffs," Buter told Cowherd. "Every single team."

Cowherd then asked about the Nets specificially, and Butler said yes - James' addition to the roster would make them a playoff team. Then, Butler took it a step further.

"I would go as far as saying that the team that won the NCAA tournament this year, the North Carolina Tar Heels, he could make them a playoff contender."

Cowherd seemed to be taken aback by the UNC comment, and asked Butler is that was a "hot take," or if he really believed that James could make the national champs a playoff contender.

"I really believe that," Butler said. "I thought about it - a lot."
