The AI propaganda continues. Shameless. And he ain't fukkin with Zeke. End of story.
at "Bytch did I tell you what my name was
?"
Remember Shaq sayin AI was top 5 all time and Mike Turrico sounding shocked
And let me get this right,you want me to listen to you "advanced stat" nerd nikkas instead of his peers who actually played the game?Over people like me who actually watched the games
?Im pretty sure if he was a dude who just "chucked" the ball he wouldn't get the respect of his peers and fans...you cant call it nostalgia when his peers and teammates give him respect,im pretty sure they know a great baskeball player when they play with and against one
...I watched the games and say fuk them stats u talkin bout
All of AI's peers said the same thing "His heart..."; "for a guy his size to be willing to challenge the bigs...to play the way he plays", "he keeps coming..."; "and he's so quick...". That's ALL they ever said about AI. They never said anything about his shooting, court vision, defense, finishing, hell, after the rule change, they never even mentioned his handle.

Man they showing ai vs vince on nba tv classics 
Man i miss that nba
Man i miss that nba
you never heard players say they were scared to guard em because they didn't want to get crossed up,1:10 DWade talkin about how Iversons handle inspired himKobe the gawd talkin about how Iversons game pushed him to play beyond his years
...and he's also compared iversons ability to score to his own""I watch Jordan more than anybody, for sure," James told ESPN's Chris Broussard for a story in the upcoming issue of ESPN The Magazine,But I'll watch tapes of AI, too. I don't take anything from AI. Well, I do -- his will. They say he was 6 feet, but AI was like 5-10½. Do we even want to say 160? 170 [pounds]? Do we even want to give him that much weight? And he played like a 6-8 2-guard. He was one of the greatest finishers we've ever seen. You could never question his heart. Ever. He gave it his all. AI was like my second-favorite player growing up, after MJ."-Lebron
His heart goes hand in hand with being one of the greatest finishers of all time,he had the heart to go in the lane full steam and take lumps and still finish
but yall got it,coaches,players,fans is all wrong
diffrence is nobody plays Bron for the jumper. everyone is so scared of his ability to barrel his way to the basket, they give loads of space so dude shots mostly uncontested jumpers. can't say the same for Nick.
this is why you need to look at more than stats. I've watched enough basketball to know that LeBron games is not a better shooter than Nick Young. he just gets alot more easy looks because of how great he is at everything else compared to Nick.
No one plays Lebron for his midrange jumper but this idea that people give him a huge cushion is still false. Lebron is played for the threat of his drive and he's very good with jab fakes to scare opponents into stepping back.
No team is giving Lebron wide open jumpers outside of San Antonio. Lebron is still a very good shooter and a far better scorer than Nick a Young. He's better at creating his own shot and finding his own shoy without being assisted and he's more efficient to boot.
And again, Lebron makes crazy off balance jumpers all the time. He prefers not to shoot them because they're stupid shots but he does it way more often than people think.

the coli: where even though player x shoots better from almost everywhere, creates his own shot more and scores at a way higher rate, player x isn't a better shooter than player y...because "i watch basketball"
If you put Bron and Nick in the gym with no one there, who hits more midrange or long range shots? you gotta compare apples to apples breh. Bron doesn't shoot many tough or contested jumpers cause he's so damn good at passing and driving. he's a better shooter percentage wise than alot of guys who would kill him in any shooting competition if they got his looks.

Maybe in an alternative universe. But in this reality, Kobe was always better than T-Mac. This argument went extinct years ago.
