Or you’re not that plugged into the NBA.
THREAD WASNT THAT BIG
This.BRON IS PROBABLY THE MOST BALL DOMINANT PLAYER IN NBA HISTORY.
PASS FIRST IS A MYTH.
HE AVERAGES MORE SHOTS PER GAME THAN KOBE.
The idea of him doing this stuff is not surprising in the slightest. It's expected
Hell it's not even really impressive to me.
thats why I'm like "eh" when I see this kinda stuff

Top 75 All-Time
He is about to be in the Top 10 for all time assist too and he not even a PG
Assists Leaders
1 John Stockton 15,806
2 Jason Kidd 12,091
3 Steve Nash 10,335
4 Mark Jackson 10,334

10 Andre Miller 8,524
11 Lebron James 8,254
Being a PG is irrelevant when he has the ball in his hands most of the time. Bron has the ball in his hands more than the average all star PG. Him not being a PG and being on the all time assist list is not impressive.

One of the greatest players ever. Living up to the hype coming out of high school is a feat in itself. Consensus top 3-5 and not mad at someone calling him a goat. It’s a shame though, cause I feel his Stan’s being so dismissive and saying he’s the clear cut GOAT incessantly is why he catches the absurd amount criticism he has in his career.
Pretend that Harden, Westbrook, CP3, Iverson, Magic, Jerry West, Pete Maravich, and Oscar Robinson don't exist brehs.
Even among his peers LeBron isn't nearly as ball-dominant as most primary ball-handlers are. So far this year LeBron is 11th in the league in minutes with the ball, and in previous years it was often even less.
2017/18: 10th.
2016/17: 18th (wasn't even first on his own team)
2015/16: 30th
2014/15: 20th
2013/14: 32nd
2011, 2012, and 2013 would be low as well...it would only be his first run in Cleveland that LeBron would have been among the league leaders in minutes with the ball, and not his rookie year either.
I just proved that's a lie. You realize the NBA has stats for this, right? LeBron ain't even top-10 right now in time with the ball in his hands, and most seasons he's been somewhere around 20th-30th.
Only because Kobe's coaches wouldn't let him shoot those first three years.PASS FIRST IS A MYTH.
HE AVERAGES MORE SHOTS PER GAME THAN KOBE.
Since 2008 LeBron has only averaged 19 shots/game, and only broken 20 shots/game ONCE. It was only his 2nd-5th seasons when he was putting up a ton of shots for a Cleveland team that was total trash. Kobe on the other hand took at least 20 shots/game in 13 of his 20 seasons.
In seasons 5-16 LeBron has averaged 19 shots and 7.5 assists a game.
In seasons 5-16 Kobe averaged 22 shots and 5 assists a game.
That's a massive difference. In the prime of their careers Kobe was taking 4.5 shots for every assist while LeBron was only taking 2.5 shots for every assist.

I legit feel sorry for guys who know so little about basketball that they think the same thing is going on when Westbrook has the ball as when LeBron has the ball.
LeBron has the highest bball IQ in the NBA, is among the best of all-time. Westbrook has low-end bball IQ. THAT is why Westbrook gets a ton of flack. LeBron makes his moves with a plan and executes, Westbrook makes his with a prayer and relies on his athleticism.
THAT is the biggest difference in their games (besides the fact that LeBron is a better shooter, finisher, passer, off-ball player, defender, and leader).
