He posted the best numbers by a HS to NBA player ever, if skill wasn't a part of the equation how come my dude Darius Miles couldn't do the same
What did it have to do with then?
Being a freak athlete at 6'8'' 230 with adequate ballhandling and savant like passing
his footwork, shooting, post game, on ball defense, and ballhandling were all atrocious to average

you said he had Adequate Ballhandling in one sentence, then say he had atrocious ballhandling in the next sentence.Never mind that either of those assessments about his ballhandling are WRONG.
Lets hear what the experts said:
Strengths: His vision and passing SKILLS are what sets him apart. A player with his combination of size, and point guard SKILLS is very rare. The only player to have this in the past was Magic Johnson. There are no more than 5 players in the NBA that have the vision and passing skills of LeBron. On top of all this he's a physical specimen. The sky is truly the limit.

Yeah he had holes in his game like every other rookie INCLUDING Kobe. But saying Bron wasn't skilled coming out of HS is plain wrong.
Because he wasn't as skilled as LeBron, he didn't get the touches or usage.
Think about what you're saying, you're basically implying that Darius Miles could have done what Bron did. A 6'8" 245lbs 18 year old was playing PG for a large portion of his rookie season, and he's not skilled?
Lebron is an average ballhandler. He has know advanced ball-handlers moves in his arsenal.
Passing is but one skill and isn't going to put him as "the most Skilled ALL AROUND player to come out of HS"
He could. Lebron was inefficient on offense and a huge net negative on defense. Had nothing to do with skill and everything to do with being "the chosen one" on a bad team playing on his hometown team with a greenlight.
