Lebron is closer to 40 than 30 and he's hurt. Does he get a pass this year?

Giannis is literally shooting a better percentage from 3 this year than both KG and Duncan on more attempts

Diff Era's but I'll concede and he's barely shoot better. KG was 28% for his career, Giannis shooting 30-31 now? With no mid range game. He needs more if he's going to get there. I actually like Giannis and want him to do well, but his game simply hasn't evolved enough for my taste

Dirk, KG, Tim Duncan (to a much lesser extent but still better than Giannis) all added three pointers to their game to help create space. Giannis is on that level, no reason he shouldn't be doing the same.

How u put Giannis and Dirk in the same sentence breh...what is this:why:

Westbrook was 1st-team All-NBA with KD and now you're trying to say he wasn't top-10. :russ:

You said Bron was "usually" with a top-10 player. If you're counting 2012-2014 Wade and 2015-2017 Kyrie as top-10 them how da fukk are you gonna pretend Westbrook wasn't when Westbrook won MVP the second KD left?

Westbrook alone was 1st or 2nd team All-NBA with KD more times (5) than ALL of Bron's teammates combined (2).

How the fukk is a league MVP "never top ten". What on earth

Just recent HOF PF's. Him trying to say they "never had to shoot" is well wrong. All developed different types of shooting to offset and change throughout their careers.

Also if that's the case Giannis shouldn't be in the same sentence as Lebron. They play nothing alike.

KG in Minnesota is a better comparison than Lebron to Giannis.

Where you see me mention specifically shooting 3s:dwillhuh:

Im talking about shotmaking. Dude said Bron was Giannis 10yrs ago. But that’s not factually true cause Bron could actually turn into a one man offense while Giannis can’t do that.

Bron went to the finals at 22 raining down all types of shots that Giannis couldn’t dream of making..

And you right..Giannis does need an elite wing. But Bron proved on Multiple occasions that he could even get to the finals without an elite wing.

shyt give Bron Middleton and I guarantee you he does more with him than Giannis ever could.

nikka BRON IS THE ELITE WING.

BRON HAS PLAYED WITH ELITE PFS
ON ALL HIS TITLE RUNS.

BRON WASNT MAKING ALL TYPES
OF JUMPERS ON THAT 07 RUN.

HE WAS BULLDOZING TO THE RIM
WHILE BOOBIE GIBSON
SHOT LIGHTS OUT.

SPURS LITERALLY DARED HIM
TO SHOOT OPEN MID RANGE JS
ALL FINALS AND HE HAD

ONE OF THE WORST FINALS EVER.

GIANNIS SHOT BETTER FROM 10-23FT
THAN BRON DID IN HIS MVP SEASONS.

Bron was 10 times the shooter Giannis is at any point of his career. So are you sure they were saying that:patrice:

Yes my G. I'm actually surprised this is even a question :dead:

Bron was shat on for not having a reliable jump shot, not having a reliable post-game, and not being clutch. Going into the 2011 season ppl felt Wade would be the closure and MIA was getting clowned for several botched clutch performances in the reg season... plus a lack of spacing bc Wade and Bron weren't seen as jump shooters nor skilled off ball.

This was the daily sohh talking points.

It wasn't until the 2011 playoffs that he quieted that down... only to reopen all the floodgates after the 2011 Finals.

It was really the 2012 playoffs where that narrative shifted. That Boston series and just actually winning the title.

Or were they saying he wasn’t clutch
Stat padder
Lebulldoze

I don’t think even hating ass nikkas were saying that Bron couldn’t shoot. Especially since 10 years ago was 2011...his first year wit the Heat and he pretty much destroyed the Bulls and Celtics with his J.

Giannis literally can’t shoot...

10 years ago he was coming off choking back to back playoffs as the back to back MVP and was getting clowned for "teaming up" with another superstar who won without him. Younger NBA players were tweeting the Heat needed to form a superteam just to beat Kobe.

Him not being able to shoot absolutely was a talking point. Hating ass nykkas were always hating ass nykkas.

It's just some of those that combatet them ended up becoming them a decade later towards other players.
