And yet somehow he's able to score more and do it more efficiently and not be a horrible teammate or sociopath:lupe:



If you're saying you can put LeBron on any NBA team and he can take them to the playoffs, I 100% agree with that. But to say LeBron James will make ANY team a CHAMPIONSHIP CONTENDER is patently false.



Be thankful I even quoted you when you are in the Hall of Shame. You over here talking bout :mjlol: as if your entire Coli posting career ain't :mjlol:


YOU COMPARING KD TO KOBE AS SOME KINDA SLIGHT TO KOBE .. THATS AN AUTOMATIC LOSS BRODIE, IM NOT EVEN READING PAST THAT FIRST SENTENCE

The 718
And it was way easier for stars to score in '05/06. Zone defenses weren't as advanced as they are now and that was right after the rule changes and the refs hadn't adjusted to them well so they were blowing the whistle on EVERYTHING. Free throws skyrocketed those first few years until the refs started to get a little less strict and subtly adjusted rules to get rid of easy FT tricks like the rip-through.

Now granted, the talent across the league 11 years ago wasn't what it was now and teams hadn't quite figured out better offensive strategies. The rule changes were only a year old at that point, so only the superstars who could create for themselves benefit the most while coaches sorted out new gameplans...it wouldn't be until about a year later where D'Antoni-ball really spread through the league. So while scoring improved over the mid-00s it still wasn't close to where it was now
