Explain why Lebron James is better than Larry Bird

[Sccit]

First sign of not watching shyt:

"Look at his stats."

No fukk boy....look at his 84 choke play.

Dennis Johnson had that niqqa choking.

You don't know shyt about the Lakers.

You're a Kobe fan...not a Laker fan

Summation of your entire Seum postin history.

They literally froze in the Finals

Westbrook and Durant weren't as bad as Larry Bird in 1981 finals

Summation of your entire Seum postin history.

NOT REALLY BECAUSE I TRULY BELIEVE WHAT IM SAYIN .. THESE KIDS JUS SAYIN STUFF TO HAVE SOMETHIN TO SAY. NO ONE CAN OBJECTIVELY CLAIM MAGIC IN 84 UNDERPERFORMED AS BAD AS STEPH DID THIS YEAR N THATS A FACT.

Your belief ≠ Reality on a lot of things.

So...the question is...why is Lebron James better than a player he has played more games than, scored more points than, gotten more rebounds than, gotten more assist than, won more mvp awards than, and has the same number of championships as with the possibility of winning more?

This dude went @Jplaya2023 wirh the VHS cassettes.

Never thought we'd see it again in here
You aren't a Laker fan. I actually watched those games as a kid.

fukk outta here with your all caps lying.

You don't know shyt about the Lakers beyond Kobe worship.

He made 3 straight all-def 2nd team from 82-84. He also led the league 4 times in defensive win shares.

He might not have been a lockdown defender but I feel like he gets underrated in this aspect a bit

Defensive Win Shares and Defensive Rating aren't great stats to use because it inflates numbers for guys who play a lot of minutes on elite defenses like Bird did...

Bird was a smart team defender but he's no Bron on defense. Bron's best seasons in dRtg and dWs arw better than Bird's too. He has 6 All-NBA Defensive teams and two Defensive Player of the Year runner-up seasons.

I don't think anyone would argue Bird was a better defender, I sure as whell wasn't. But he wasn't poor.

His rookie season, he led the league in DWS and his team ranked top 5 defense after being bottom 5 the previous season. Keep in mind they didn't have Parish, McHale & DJ yet
