Lebron just set a new NBA record

[DIMES]

Answer this question: why didn't Jordan's kids, Ewings kids, Olajuwon's kids, Isaiah Thomas kids, drexler, Charles Oakley, Anthony masons kids etc make it to the NBA

Lebron, Rose and wade had more God given physical skills than Curry out the womb

I remember ewings kids made it on to a squad... I could be wrong. The others were just not either not good enough or not enough effort to take advantage.

Look how much the percentage of playing in the NBA goes up if we separate NBA dads whose sons go on to play In the league compared to the non NBA parents.


Breh it's a extreme advantage to have the luxury options an NBA dad can provide. That 0.01% chance to make the league gets boosted so much higher. Look at how much an advantage Lebron's 5th grade son has from his dad playing pro and affording the lifetime luxury basketball options.

Compared to coming up poor with self made playground training, wouldn't you agree its a huge advantage?

 

[DIMES]

Wrong! Even if we use your dumb argument and we're not going to factor in or limit how many games were played for the regular season Jordan would still not qualify because he only had 22.7 PPG in 85/86.







Based on your absurd logic if we can't use MJ's season in 85/86 & count it as a "real season" then we also can't use Jordan's 94/95 stats when he played just 17 games & scored 26.9 before retiring as a "real season" either which would therefore also eliminate MJ having 25 PPG for 12 consecutive years based off your own criteria.






Sorry but these weak excuses don't fly! Injuries are a part of the game & coming up with what if's, would have, could have scenarios still doesn't make it reality.

I see what you're getting at but the point I was making is those health "what ifs" were a given.

Basically, the greatest scorer in NBA history has no reason to dip below 25 ppg based on the examination of the extreme consistency of his career numbers.

Bro, ain't no nba legends except for Larry Nance Jr, The Currys and the Barry's have made it to the league. The percentage of sons of NBA players doesn't increase just cause the dad played in the league.

LeBron, Rose, D Wade all were more physically gifted than Curry.

So Luke Walton, Austin rivers , Koby Carl, tim hard away jr, dunleav jr, klay thompson Etc all got by pure hard work huh

Having an wealthy NBA father and elite training regimens and connections since childhood had nothing to do with it


Poori inner city kids like Lebron, d rose & d Wade just talented


No advantage

That's actually pretty fukking amazing if he's the only guy to have done it.

He's had to go through historically great defenses all throughout his playoff career. That shouldn't be used as a knock against him

Bird and Magic have more rings because of the circumstances around them, not due to being better basketball players.

Yo do realize he's played in the East all his career right? You do realize he also lost to a team with Dwight Howard as their main scoring option right? You do realize he teamed up with 2 other superstars and got ran through by the Mavs right? The Mavs had a historically great defense now? Magic averages 24 and 12 on 16 shots a game in '86, Lebron average 27 and 7 on 19 shots a game in 2010, in the east mind you (), and you tryin' to claim Bron is better than Magic. Get this glorified James Worthy the f*ck outta here

An Eastern Conference that has featured the Detroit Pistons, big three Celtics, Howard/SVG led Magic who were regular contenders, Thibs led Bulls who orchestrated one of the GOAT defenses in 2011 + an out of this world athletic PG leading the offense and Vogel led Pacers who also deserve a spot among the best defenses of this era while giving the Heat a specific matchup issue. Yeah, I don't see how that's easy in the slightest. Chris Bosh was never a superstar, Wade was and sure the 2011 Finals was a poor look, but he's proven that to be an anomaly compared to the rest of his postseason career where he's been excellent. I am sure you will ignore when magic choked the 1984 finals for some hypocritical reason though.

You must be one of those people who thinks offense for a center is purely 1on1 scoring. Dwight was never great at this, but good enough to produce reliably for the Magic who had phenomenal spacing surrounding him. More important than anything was his dominance as a roll man in the P&R where he's one of the best this game has ever seen and on the offensive glass. Dwight Howard was a very good scorer in Orlando and its ignorant to argue otherwise.



That man has one of the 10 greatest peaks for a center in NBA history. On top of that, the Magic had Lewis and Turk who were lights out from three in the series. LeBron averaged 38 per game against them and it wasn't enough, not sure how you'd find fault with him there & Magic nor Bird are doing anything to change the outcome of that series.

I like how you left out defense entirely because you know it tilts the comparison dramatically. LeBron is a more dominant scorer than Magic, producing on much greater volume while retaining comparable efficiency and has been a top notch wing defender throughout his career. It's not just the fact that he's more dominant than both Bird/Magic offensively, but he's carried huge impact defensively as well.

If the cavs beat a 73-9 warriors team in the finals



That would be legendary

Us Warriors haters gon eat
Hell #LWO would root for Bron in that one instance

 

[blackzeus]

They included Lebron taking a charge in the video

They included Lebron taking a charge in the video

That's defense....you're protecting the lane

 

[blackzeus]

Yeah but we doin' highlight videos of taking charges and boxing out now?

 

[Kaypain]

Man just the fact he was able to accomplish all the shyt that he has with the Cavs for most of his career is amazing. The Cavs been the laughing stock of the NBA for most of their time in the league. Hell my old man even says the Cavs weren't shyt before Lebron outside a few years with a healthy Daughterty and Price.

Cavs were nothing but the team Jordan owned, then script switched and Bron owned the Bulls

 

[Kaypain]

2-5 in the finals tho

imagine he played n the west

if he played in the West he wouldn't have any Finals losses
