Josh Smith Vs Lebron James....

[ISO]

Lol at this bytch nikka getting mad cuz I embarrassed him

"Lebron can get his chest at rim level dude" GTFOH lollypopping ass nikka

Nikka your fukking stupid AF, there was a whole analysis on a LeBron dunk and he jumped 43 inches it's universally known that LeBron is a better athlete than Josh Smith. I don't know why the fukk you stay talking about chests, Gerald Green is 6'8 like LeBron and has a 48 inch vertical he was never chest level at the rim. are you talking about

Lmao at Josh Smith being as athletic as LeBron

Since were talking about athletic specimens, what are Dwight Howard, Russell Westbrook and Derrick Rose's verts?

Who do ya'll think is the better athlete at PG between a healthy rose and a healthy westbrook?

LeBron is the best athlete in the NBA right now, nobody possesses his combination of speed, strength, coordination and leaping he has regressed a bit from his Cleveland days as he is 29 now. KD is interesting because he's like 6'11 a blur in the open floor, ridiculous reach, deceptive strength and very explosive at the rack. He's definitely udnerrated athletically.

Derrick Rose Vertical: 40 inches
Russell Westbrook Vertical: 36.5 inches
Dwight Howard: 39.5 inches

Personally, Rose is the better athlete but Westbrook is more explosive. Healthy Rose is a master of hangtime and changing his body in midair, he ran a 3.05 3/4th court spring that's the best among current NBA players, and he can really get up there as a dunker. Russell seems to be more determined and explosive big time power dunker.

Thanks for this. Good analysis. Had no idea Dwight's vert was that high. I knew he was a great athlete, but now people's frustrations with his lack of growth offensively is even more understandable. He seems to be improving this year though.

That was the nikka that was agreeing with you my bad but you can still take dat neg

Athleticism isn't vertical only, lebron has better agility, balance, speed, coordination, and strength. Lets not get into the mental aspect ofthe game

 

[the cool]

If josh smith had a good coach he would be >>> Lebron.

 

[Steezy]

Josh was never more athletic at any point of his career then bron..not even documentary josh

not that that's a insult its just true..speed wise , lateral ability , body control , hell prolly even vert. the one thing i say josh had one up on bron was the chasedown block.. everybody credits bron with bringing it back but my josh was the youngest ever to 500 & 1000.

Josh was a better overall shot blocker no doubt, but the chasedown was all LeBron's. LeBron in '09 had 23 chasedown blocks (), he's the master of it then other nikkas started doing it too.

 

[#1 pick]

1. Josh doesn't have LeBron's basketball IQ, not even in the same universe close
2. Josh doesn't handle it anywhere near as good as Bron
3. Josh is a good weak side defender, but he's trying to guard athletic 3's on the perimeter, Bron can guard anybody anywhere on the floor
4. It's not really even a fair comparison to Josh b/c when Josh plays smart he's an All Star level player, but too often he doesn't play intelligently or under control.

@#1 pick @FreshFromATL @Stone @Town @charmander @Rickdogg44 @Sly Cookin @The_Sheff @The ADD @Hollywood Co did I miss something?

1. Josh BBIQ is bad. He is smart understanding plays and where everyone should be but it's when to make smart plays with the ball or plays off the ball, Josh struggles. Defensively, Josh had really good BBIQ.

2. Josh bad coordination, small hands, and decision making skills makes him a clown level ball handler. He dribbles in bad situations constantly. One of my biggest gripes with him offensively outside of his shooting.

3. Josh was sloot feet, Lebron has excellent feet. While not many players his size have Lebron's feet, they don't have Josh's either which is a positive as Josh footwork, isn't that good. His recovery sometimes makes up for it since he used to be extremely explosive.

4. I always hated the Lebron comparisons but his style of play, I used to call him the homeless man's Lebron. Still a valuable player but clearly should be a role player off the bench like a Lamar Odom.

bron is right handed, josh smith is left handed

Maybe LeBron is a once in a lifetime type of player. That has nothing to do with Josh being a big time underachiever

Josh was an Overachiever. Clearly as well. He had no legit NBA skill as a rookie. He was one of the worst players I've seen in the NBA in all my years of watching the game. To this day, him and Gerald Green are 1 and 2 of the two worst players I have ever seen in the NBA. I didn't even did Josh or Gerald would have been a good NCAA player as freshman. In fact, I think they both would be on the bench in college as a freshman and barely getting mins at that.

Number 2 and 3 are the main ones I thought of. He isn't that "quick" compared to Lebron either. Let's just : at the IQ of Josh at times...

But he is Detroits problem now
