if lebron ends his career with only two championships he is a huge waste of talent

It pretty much seems that way.

I would have liked to see LeBron play with the best player in the league for several years while LeBron was also entering his prime as well as have the best coach of all-time

That would have been nice

Lebron is the better defender, passer, rebounder, team player, and has a much bigger imprint on a team as far as winning is concerned. He does a much better job of making the players around him better and feel like they are a part of the game, which is vital word to phil jackson. Hell Lebron is actually a better clutch player than Kobe if we're going to keep it 100 with you. I don't believe in clutchness, but if that's your thing, then Lebron has been better than him in that regard too. If you were a gm, and you had to pick either prime lebron or prime kobe you would pick Prime Lebron 100 times out of 100.

Kobe had "more moves in his repertoire" I guess, but that doesn't make him more effective at basketball than Lebron, he simply isn't.

Lebron makes everyone better BUT the 4 position. Surround Lebron with shooters, of course Shooters will be better but fill in a back-to-basket guy and its a disaster.
Kobe can play with a 4, stretch or not.

Dudes mentioning Bill Russell?

 

[sea manup]

I didnt know winning in basketball was an individual thing like tennis & boxing

loser beta mentality

What? Because surrounding the best player in the league with shooters is a bad thing or something having his 4's as stretch 4's does little to rid the notion of Lebron making his teammates better.

Pow clow back huh

 

[awwsome]

T-Mac put up 32/6.5/5.5 while shooting 38% from 3 on 6 attempts per in 03, I hate injuries.

 

[shoeking2101]

Man when the 2nd unit for San Antonio gets into prime form, it's going to be really hard to defeat them come postseason. It'll be interesting how no homecourt will effect the spurs though.

 

[sea manup]

lebron turned top 5 player klove into vlad rad the space cadet 

 

[AEA18]

Pow clow back huh

To the block list with him then

What does kobe do better than lebron on the court?

Shoot. Post game, foot work. Ball handles.



You're implying he makes everyone better when the truth is, he doesn't makd the 4 position better. He makes PG, SG better, sure but the 4 position, no.

 

[sea manup]

he does make hgh suppliers better off though 

 

[ryanjumpman420]

Magic,bird,kobe,oscar,russell arent better basketball players than lebron
Bird only avg 25+ 4 times, lebron did it 11 straight & counting, bron is literally magic on hgh, kobe never put up better numbers than lebron, oscar & russell are laughable compared to lebron

If you gonna put rings, a team accomplishment on a pedestal over individual greatness then russell should be number 1 unanimously on everyones list

only thing u got is lebron scoring? Let's not talk about how Bird was a better rebounder and passer than LBJ. i think people get too swept up in lebron james the athlete vs lebron james the basketball player. LBJ is def one of the greatest athletes to ever play in the nba. But that Doesnt make him the better basketball player. look at those numbers closer fella with LBJ vs bird. YouTube Larry Birds passing skills.

Kawhi taking his game to the next level as well.

 

[sea manup]

spurs are a second round exit at best, tim and pop dont have the heart to win back to back 

 

[shoeking2101]

Kawhi taking his game to the next level as well.

Which will ultimately determine their fate this year.He looks more comfortable as of late with the ball which is good.

 

[shoeking2101]

That being said, the spurs are getting bounced in the first round this year.

 

[awwsome]

Praying for an OKC/GSW first round.

These refs on that prison workout regiment and/or dat HGH

He should go down in history as one of the top players and get close to Michael (Jordan).”

he’s as good as anyone that’s ever played this game.

Larry Legend on Lebron.

Quick series.
