The N.O
if lebron was on that team they would've won with rose and wouldn't have traded robinson, deng, or kirk hinrich and honestly d wade would've came there

The D (where it's so cold)
Easily Noah. Who can't lead a team that has the 3-4 best players 99% of the time?

This. And the Heat still had to hang onto and in another situation bring out of retirement Juwan Howard for his leadership and ablitiy to hold the team together and motivate them when Lebron's confidence was visibly questionable at best.

I don't know because I'm not in their locker rooms, but since LeBron has led his team to back-to-back titles and back-to-back-to-back Finals appearances, and led a different team to a Finals appearance, I'm gonna go with him.

I think people are confusing being a great leader with being a great player. Lebron is obviously the better player, but I think Noah's constant energy, emotion, and talking makes him a better leader of men than Lebron. When you play with someone like Noah who exudes energy, you want to play harder for them & match their intensity. Lebron doesn't seem to have that effect to me.
Of course, this is all said as a non-biased bulls fan :mjpls:

Let's keep it real here...

Watch the games, and LeBron plays as hard or harder than anybody else in the league... and especially when you take into account all that he is responsible for on the court (which is more than Noah, who also plays as hard or harder than anybody else in the league). One thing that can't be questioned is LeBron's motor.

People are looking at Noah as playing with more energy than everybody else because he's on that KG scream and yell "rah rah" shyt. Not saying they don't play hard, because they clearly do, but just because other players are less vocal or demonstrative doesn't mean they aren't playing their asses off as well.

A huge part of that energy is the constant emotion and talking that I mentioned. It brings everyone else into the game & ups the intensity. Not speaking to their talent levels, I think most people would rather play with someone with Noah's on court demeanor than Lebron's.

I definitely disagree with this statement. And LeBron does a lot of talking on the court as well.... in fact, he clearly never shuts the fukk up either. I agree with you on the talking up the intensity, but you're giving praise to Noah for doing the exact same thing that LeBron does.

I keep mentioning the emotional aspect of Noah's game. That's the big difference in their energy & talking. You can see that whenever they play. Noah always seems much more fired up. I'd rather play for a person like that who draws the best out of you by just being that intense

That's the basis of my whole argument.

Noah isn't drawing the best out of other professional adult athletes because he seems like he's fired up or because he's emotional. That shyt is nice for the TV screen and for the people watching but that "emotional" shyt ain't drawing the best out of other players. He's drawing the best out of them by playing 100% every night and talking them up, the same shyt LeBron does.

You said the bolded like they're not regular ass people too. Pros aren't trying their hardest & giving full effort every time just like people in any other career. And the intensity Noah brings is definitely contagious in a competitive setting
