Prime Larry Bird is who Bron should be compared to Not MJ

[Versa]

Hmm....

Lebron is a better scorer,comparable playmaker/passer, and a significantly better Defensive player then bird. Hes also a better playoff Perfomer.

Um.....what?

Why do you feel that way?

That pass @ the 1:22 mark...the style...the grace...the timing...the precision


Bron ain't no slouch, butgotdamnyamanMagic

 

[RedBull]

Good comparison but,I honestly don't believe we can compare Lebron with anyone because he's unique. He's like Barkley when it comes to being unique. No comparison.

yeah I'm curious too.

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

your casual is showing

If you mean finishing around the basket on lay ups, that's a given.

But it's plenty of good finishers in the league.Amare before the injuries was one of the best finishers I've ever seen, but I wouldn't put that in a direct comparison to the passing ability of Magic... or Bird's J

Brons finishing ability is a result of him being bigger & stronger than everyone else.It's not pure skill.


As far as finishing as in finishing teams off....Bird...Kobe...Michale Jordan...Reggie Miller...etc all shyt on Bron in that regard

 

[JealousOnesEn_V]

You don't know what a travel is.

2 steps, gather then go to the bucket.

You guys on this site don't know anything about basketball.

Oh shyt lmao I had to rewatch it! Didnt see him put the ball on the floor! And nikka I'd bet everything I got I know more about sports than u

 

[Hahahaha]

You guys can't be serious saying Lebron is a better scorer / postup player then Larry Bird right?

[seemorecizzy]

Without question.I guess that's a good skill to have, but it's nothing major.

Blake Griffin might be a better finisher, but finishing is to "after the fact"


I'm talking primary basketball skill sets

 

[Mook]

Everyone knows you can't compare a black guy to a white guy. All comps are bound by race.

That's right, and Bird is clearly > bron

What's the one thing Bron is phenomenal at?


He's above average at everything...that mixed in with his crazy athleticism and freak like physical make up nh, makes him a dominant player.He's a phenomenal basketball specimen all the way around.

His court vision is

But it's not like Magic's



His J is


But it's not Like Bird's


His post up game is

but it's not like Michael Jordan's

hes one of the best driver/finishers of all time

If I'm gonna compare LeBron to anyone in the past it's gonna be Magic. Both are point-forwards who use their size/physical advantage to either distribute or score. Both have great court vision (Magic's is better though) who can get teammates involve but can also score when needed (Bron's a better scorer). Magic was more of a killer in a sense that he always knew when to take over the games but Bron's getting better at doing this though.

I'd wait for Bron to finish his career before we start stacking him up against the greats. He's gotta stop flopping though. A man his size and built like him shouldn't have to resort to acting. Leave the flopping to Wade.

 

[superunknown23]

Funny how everyone here is ignoring defense... like it's not an important part of the game

 

[J-MIL]

Nobody compares him to MJ no more

He's more Magic than Mike
