this dude bron is pound for pound the most versatile player ever

[Kobes Two Jerseys]

Random but the Spurs cheated last year when they turned off the AC...but nobody talks about that

What rule states AC must be on?

 

[Edub]

he's about to go 2W-4L in the NBA Finals tho

Bron is not losing in these finals...that is not happening

This is a flawed assessment. How can Bron be a better basketball player when his skill set isn't as good? MJ post game is better, mid range is better, you're watching a guy that grew up with the 3 pt line playing in his 12th yr shooting less than 20% from 3 in the playoffs right now, MJ was a better defender (wake me up when Bron post 100 blocks and 200 steals in a season.....even though he's bigger), and MJ simply won in the Finals everytime he showed up. When measuring Bron, it comes with a lot of hyperbole. People love to champion his "all around" game, yet MJ is the one with 10 triple doubles in 11 games. People love to classify MJ as just simply a better scorer, yet his career high in points also came with 18 rebounds. What MJ was on the basketball court can't be quantified into these weirdo stat capsules like "most 33 point, 6 assist, 5 rebound, 2 steals" that ESPN prop up to give you an "idea" of what Bron is doing. Nobody had to do that with MJ. Just watch them play. Don't lose context in the rush to proclaim something as "black and white".....there's too much gray area. Watch 260 lb Bron pound the rock into the ground and settle for a long 18 foot shot with 200 lb Kent Bazemore guarding him......then watch MJ turn his back as soon as he sees someone like that and proceed to work the post. MJ was simply a superior "basketball" player. Bron just won the gene lottery.

I disagree but the last 2 sentences are sort of true, in that Brons size and quickness and fluidity at that size is incredible. But I mean Bron has great court vision and bball iq. He clearly watches a lot of film plus he has a good handle and good touch in the paint and around the hoop. Jordan's natural mid range shooting skill+ bball instincts + athletic ability is unrivaled though.

But ya Bron likes to have the ball, take a few dribbles, draw the defense in or spread them out and make the right read. Jordan in his prime would catch it in the high post, turn around in the air, look to shoot, see Horace Grant cutting in the corner of his eye, fake a pass to Grant and knock down the jumper. All in the span of a second, while he is in the air.
I'm exaggerating (although I'm sure plays like that have happened) but Jordan just naturally knew when to shoot or pass. He didnt have to think, it just came to him. LeBron has to take his time and read the D.
Kobe is even worse, he just decides whether he will shoot or pass before the play even starts

Magic, shaq, Lebron are the only players id love to build a team with.

Damn just those 4?

Others I'd love to build a team around off the top

- Duncan
- Durant
- Anthony Davis
- Olajuwon
- Curry
- Garnett

Do you understand what the term "pound for pound" means @malcolmxxx_45

No

Sounds pretty cool saying it though

 

[dem bath salts]

Does it all

 

[street heat]

never thought about it like this.

i still think the 09 magic got fluke hot during that ecf.. we coulda had bron vs bean that year

nah the magic were legit....kind of hard to matchup against prime d12 with hedo and shard on the wing. both 6'10 and could make 3s.

stan van gundy panicked and took away their chance at title though

 

[JJ Lions]

I hope people really appreciate what they're seeing.....

All Day every Day Kobe/MJ better ballers than Bron..... cause the end game is to put the ball in the basket...

But All Day every Day, its easier to build a championship team around Bron than either of those guys....and that's a testament to a greatness that we under appreciate.... especially for a Wing/Guard type player....

Didn't he have Wade and Bosh and lose last Finals?

 

[Archangel]

How is Lebron not better than MJ? Lebron is winning with the rat pack. When MJ had the rat pack, they would lose in the 1st round.

To be honest though, The East back in Mj's day was waaaay more competitive and actually had Championship caliber teamS (plural). LeBrons only threat in his prime was the Boston Celtics.

 

[606onit]

top 3 to ever grace a basketball

u dont GRACE a bball. You wield it

 

[Biscayne]

He's better than Mj or Kobe. He does a lot more. He can play PG like a PG. He can score. He can play great defense. Rebound. Make his teammates much better and make it easier. He's like Magic Johnson but much better.

LBJ over MJ? People forget MJ was putting up 32/8/8 on like 54% shooting in the 80's. LBJ has had seasons close to this, but not quite there. LBJ had seasons that were close.

People forget Jordan in the 80's was putting up those all around stat stuffer stat lines that LeBron is putting up. Jordan was putting up like 35/7/7 while shooting above 50%. I gotta look it up, but some people act like MJ was only a scorer, or that he didn't have the all-around game that LBJ did, when if you look at his stats in the 80's, they eclipse LeBrons. Folks need to compare MJs best statistical season to LBJs to see the difference.
