Its going to be interesting they're might not be one undispited main guy

Luka and Giannis might get the crown, but we'll see whats up with KD and Steph for a couple of more years while they still have their prime.


We'll see whats up with Zion, Devin and Ja though
Don’t forget Tatum. And what will Harden look like coming into the season ready to play and win instead of coming in to sabotage his way out of a situation.

I disagree with this slandering tactic people use to base some crazy perception of the hardness or softness of the league upon 1 player.

Much in the same way it would be silly to base the toughness on 80s basketball to Bill Laimbeer, for example.
The game wasn’t marketed around Bill Laimbeer, it was marketed more so around teams. And the “hardness” of the 80s was/is almost directly tied to the Bad Boy Pistons much like he is tryna tie this era to Lebron.

and add to that the removal of certain physicality that benefits every player including Bron. If Bron has been running the League for umpteen years that’s what comes with it. just spit balling.

All these foreign players are Bron stans :wow:
The best foreign player plays like Harden.

WHAT RULES/OFFICIATING CHANGES HAVE THERE BEEN THAT BENEFIT LEBRON OVER OTHER TYPES OF PLAYERS?

The rest of the world has always had great athletes. Some of those countries just didn’t (and still don't) have the infrastructure to develop the talent of these gifted athletes.

Either way it will still take a while longer for the rest of the world to catch up to and consistently beat an American team that’s been properly put together with the best American talents.

But I'm betting that once the NBA African league is 20 to 30 + years in you'll see a whole new breed of players and it will likely be over for US and European dominance in the sport. Just imagine bunch of players similar to Bam Adebayo playing point-forward and distributing the ball to freak athletic players like Giannis on the wing...
