STFU got faker fan.
Kobe >>> Then queen .
Man I know MJ is STILL GOAT ...
But has anyone made the game look easier than Lebron in his prime? Shaq? MJ had flawless footwork and a considerable athletic advantage over a "floor bound" NBA in the mid 80's early 90's ...
But JAmes can pretty much do much of MJ did ... but do other things like exquisite passing and floor vision ... and also bully through the lane that NO ONE else can do the way LBJ can.
I said it a few weks ago and I ll say it again here. IF Lebron gets close to (Mj 4 0r 5 rings) he will not only surpass Bryant/Duncan etc but will have an EXTREMELY strong case over Magic Kareem and POSSIBLY MJ ...

OK I know this place is Lakers obsessed, but Lebron is doing his thang.
Guy cant miss even from 3point land, droppig dimes ...but yall would trather talk Dwight/Kobe drama.
Dude just hit another as atype this. I know eSPN sucks him off plenty but for an NBA forum not to even have a active thread ... is a shame. the guy is amazing.
lol superfriends
What should I do?
lebronica.
Dude is far and way the best player in the league right now. Somehow he's found a 3 point shot too. Only question now is his clutchness. I'd still rather have Wade (or Allen) shooting that final shot.
Part of it tonight is that he's playing a team that hasn't had a ing clue how to guard the three for like 3 years now... Vinny Del Negro needs to be fired ASAP...
Niccas can hate if they want.
Dude is just so freaking gifted. he works hard. Sure has ego but if i was THAT good I would be the same ...minus The chosen one tattoo and speaking in third person ...
IF Im James I call off that engagement and IM going balls deep in new exotic pu$$ until I get older ...
Lebron is boss, but it's different than MJ... MJ just had way more compe ive fire... I don't see that on Lebron... Lebron though is way more athletic... dude can just do whatever he wants on pure raw power... he's without a doubt the best player in the league right now...
IF you are just talking one shot with limited time ...I agree. But with enough time to drive and kick or shoot I take James over Kobe, melo durant whomever ...
Has been the best for the last 3 years tbh
Part of his clutch time problem was that he didn't have a reliable jump shot when teams backed off and locked in during clutch time..it's not a coincidence that he has been more "clutch" the past 2 years with an improved J, tbh..
Having Wade as another option obviously helps, he's the most clutch player of the post-Jordan era..
Ray Allen better make some clutch shots in the playoffs, he's horrible otherwise, tbh..
Come on El you can say it dude is entering rarified "air" ...I also dont buy the Clips argument, Lebron has been on a roll. Plus is Bosh pretty much useless. He is a very good player. But Heat seem to play better without him (last year's playoffs and this year)
That's just it though. With LeBron, you have a very good chance of getting the highest possible % look from the floor on the final possession. If that means he's going to pass out of a triple team to a wide open sharpshooter, he's going to do it. Dude consistently makes the right decisions. Even if he doesn't score, he's making a clutch play.
It's different. MJ was a gambler... he hated to lose. It was in his gut.
Lebron is different. His drive is showing off he's the best, because he's athletically way beyond anybody else. He has also learned how to mix it up and do the little things to win.
They're both phenomenal in their own way.
the Heat don't play better without Bosh..they completely dominated the playoffs once Bosh returned..
Miami appears better without him during the regular season, simply because Lebron and Wade realize they cannot coast if he's sitting, they need to play 100%..
Maybe but the last 2 years I have not been impressed. Dirk was batter in 2011 and other guys have cases. Wade still living off reputation and freebies to some extent ...Funny how Heat started to win when James deferred to Wade less. I was with you in2011 ... Lebron shrank in the clutch but Wade hasnt been all THAT clutch save a few isolated game winners ... but Kobe has those too yet everyone calls him overrated in the clutch.
Almost every clutch performer is overrated tbh ...Melo, Kobe, Dirk Pierce etc have all come up short more than be clutch the past few years ...
Obviously they need him cuz they are thin up front, and he is a great mid-range shooter. But I would argue even florr spacing shooters or more valuable to the Heat ... BOsh played great in the 2011 Finals ... he was actually their most consistent player that series. But they lost .... they won last year because JAmes elevated his play and they killed it from 3 ...without the 3's that series is much tighter. Not sure what Bosh's finals numbers were but I was not impressed with him like in 2011

sombrero >>> hat
he makes it look easy, because today's players are not as skilled, as when they were during mj's era, notice how prevalent monkeyballing is, if lebron played against jordan, mj would destroy him, and there would be no questions as to who GOAT is
The day that Lebron see's defenders like Dennis Rodman, Scottie Pippen, and Bruce Bowen, Anthony Mason, and X-Man then come holla at me..until then get off his nut sack...not impressed with he's doing with no one elite defenders in today's game... it's unfortunate he played in this era but players like Rodman would have went knee deep in his ass....real talk
Lebron is just a different look for the NBA, tbh..he's the ultimate role model, on and off the court..unlike Jordan, Lebron takes the challenge of guarding elite wings on a regular basis during the playoffs..unlike Jordan, Lebron plays pass-first basketball, team basketball..
Unlike Jordan, Lebron doesn't punch teammates and alienate them..unlike Jordan, Lebron doesn't have crutches in his personal life that result in the murder of his father..
It's just a different breed of superstar, tbh..
Jordan: terrible human being for many reasons, selfish player
Bryant: even worse than Jordan
Magic: routinely engaged in gay sex, potentially risking the health of his peers
Bird: Ugly white trash that was an asshole, according to most people IIRC
Bowen defended Lebron... I know you just started to watch basketball a season or two ago, so you're excused...
MJ is more skilled (so is Kobe) but neither are as dominant. MJ faced better skilled players but also less athletic ones. JAmes dominates a more athletic league with uber athleticism and elite skills. No knock to say that Mj has more skill than LBJ but not sure MJ could deal with James size. We all know MJ was a killer compe or and it took longer for James to get there. But Im not sure I would take MJ over James ...yes I said it. Right now I still lean Mj but JAmes is mking me reconsider
