I put Bron and Vince in the same category...super athletic, "straight-line" athletes. Bron was faster and stronger.



Neither Vince or Bron had great agility and quickness...that's what separated Jordan.



If Bron or Vince were a football players they'd be called "stiff hipped".
Jordan wasn't that agile compared to Kobe or Iverson though.

Even as a rookie, Bron outweighed MJ by 25 lbs. Peak Bron was about 50 to 55 lbs heavier. Think the gap narrows quite a bit if they're closer in weight.

Bron was running a 4.6 as a wr his second year at Saint Vincent Saint Mary. I’d imagine he got way faster over the next few years in high school. Vince never had the straight line speed, body control or coordination of bron. Add Leo his hands are elite as well. U rarely see him miss an alley pop catch even when the pass was too high or seemingly uncatchable

LeBron pre-Miami was actually absurdly quick. He has never been super agile, but his first step used to be elite.
