Those Athletic points don't really mean shyt. Curry can do anything Lebron can do AND BETTER except for finish and maybe defense....


You nikkas really arguing skill over athletic ability :mjlol:


Chef Curry said that he's a better OFFENSIVE player than Lebron... And he is :what:

He didn't say he was a better all around player than Lebron. Curry Shoots better, dribbles better, passes better (nikkas be overrating Lebron and this passing shyt), shoots FT's better, sets up players better, and does everything better on OFFENSE except finish because Lebron is 6'8 250 and fast.


But that's IT. There are players that are more offensively skilled than Lebron because they don't have all the size/athleticism or because of injury (Curry, Irving, Nowiztki, Melo, Kobe, etc).

nikkas act like Lebron hasn't played in the East and with 2 top-10 allstars in the east his entire career:what:



Lebron is a freak of nature.. And is more dominant than curry but Curry is better offensively:yeshrug:.


An example.... Shaq was the most dominant center....right? But do you think he was also more skilled than Hakeem???


:mjlol:


this nikkas nuts is deep down your throat huh:russ:


And no... he's not :mjlol:

Dog, you might be slightly delusional or your hate of LeBron is clouding your judgment.

LeBron is a better passer and sets his teammates up better than Curry, which is even more impressive when you consider that Curry's a legitimate point guard.

Curry's a better long range shooter than LeBron. Curry is also a better dribbler than LeBron but the rate he turns the rock over erodes some of that. LeBron is a more efficient player, some because of his size/athleticism, a lot of it also because he's a much better decision maker. LeBron is better at getting to and finishing at the rim, getting to the foul line, better in the midrange, a better post-up player... he's just more varied offensively. Don't get me wrong, Curry is a tremendous offensive player and it's not like there's a huge gap there, but LeBron is a better offensive player than Stephen Curry. There's no shame in that.

And you guys gotta stop it with this basic LeBron is unskilled narrative. He's more skilled than 95% of players in league history. I mean, are you REALLY going to argue that Kyrie Irving is more skilled than LeBron? Or is the true argument here you think their games are prettier or some shyt like that?



And as far as the bolded... he hasn't. How long have you even been watching NBA basketball, lil' guy?

Last year Curry avg more assist, better outside/FT percentage (and probably would've avg better FG but most of Lebron points comes off dunks) while lpaying less minutes....



and they BOTH averaged the same number of turnovers :comeon::snoop:


Like I said, Lebron is better at barreling into the paint to get to FT line, kick out to Ray Allen or whatever 3pt shooter that made up half the team, and finishing on a fastbreak dunk... usually from D.Wade who could've finished that shyt himself


So again... you really trying to say Lebron is more skilled at handling the ball, shooting, shooting the 3, and setting up teammates in real offense (not the barrel to the right and kick out of the double team) than Steph Curry...:wtf:





aight breh, do you then :snoop:


This nikka just said Lebron is more skilled than 95% players in history... The dissappear in the 4th quarter Lebron James.... The cramp up in the finals Lebron james... The "I need atleast 2 other all-stars in the east to make it to the finals" Lebron james...




It must be late.... Go to bed bruh:mjpls:

Are you slow or something? Do you have that Eddie Winslow disease or something? Where did I say LeBron was a better 3-point shooter or dribbler than Stephen Curry?

And this is definitely a futile argument anyway, you're clearly blinded by hate.

Don't even give Curry the props of being a better dribbler than Lebron.

Skinny guards who are smaller than Lebron just appear to be better at dribbling because of their body frame.

Lebron & Magic are the best big guys who had nice handles ever, can't think of any other big guards even close.

The only other players of that size I can remember handling the rock anywhere near that level were Antoine Walker and Lamar Odom but they didn't handle it nearly as much as LeBron and Magic. Then of course you've got Scottie Pippen, Grant Hill, Tracy McGrady and Penny Hardaway, though they're a little shorter/smaller than LeBron and Magic.

I agree but Magic and Lebron have way more speed than Odom & A.Walker which makes their handles on another level.

Your right that Penny, T-Mac & Pippen are second tier.

I can't take any player under 6'5 serious that dare come out their mouth and say they do something than Lebron.

The bigger you are the harder it is to be skilled...

I always tell people how impressed i am with Durant's handle at his size also, best big shooter since Bird.
