There hasnt been a gap this big between the #1 and 2 player since Jordan

[Majestic Pape]

Lol whats wrong with nikkas on here.. I can easily tell who someone favorite player or team is by their responses.. there is no way u can say lebron clearly isnt the best player in the nba ... whether he wins the ring or not

Nobody said he wasn't.

If the gap is that large, there's no excuse for Miami not to win the title this year then.

Its not that large...Lebron a more complete player. Durant better offensive player

Passing/playmaking is part of offense and that's a huge advantage Lebron has over Durant.

So who was #2 when Jordan was playing?

Any answer other than Pippen is wrong btw.

 

[FreedS[ohh]lave]

Durant has zero rebounds through 3 quarters

fukk outta here making this nikka into some legend..hes george Gervin reincarnated

Gervin ain't a legend?

I think this series shows just how much better Lebron is. How folk were saying KD was the best player in the league is

Can you remember a single Durant play that wasn't a shot. A rebound ? An Assist ? A defensive gem ? He really has become George Gervin.

Got nikkas at the 4 letter biting my shyt

Gervin ain't a legend?

Vince Carter is a legend too I guess?

If we're talking dunking. Then hell yea.
Gervin was part of the 50 greatest. Dude was a killa in his day.

You tryin to act like he was a scrub.

Since Jordan.

2000 Shaq

2010 to 2012 Lebron

Lebron is easily the best player in the NBA. No one is even remotely close to him.

while that might be true hes all athleticism, once that goes hes going to be antwan jamison on the caveliaers staus

the better question is, when did someone have a reign this long as the best player in the league?



Lebron's been the best since at least the 07-08 season, if not sooner; meaning this will be his 5th straight year being the best basketball player in the world





Shaq's dominance didn't last that long, so you have to go all the way back to Jordan's reign before he retired to find a 5 year stretch like this one... and even then, how many other guys have had a 5 year stretch like Bron's current one? not Bird or Magic... Kareem? Wilt?



crazy thing is, Bron's not even done... dude is just now reaching his prime and I can see him being the best basketball player on the planet for at least the next 2 years... that would make 7 straight years of dude being the best, that's probably the longest unofficial streak of all time
