Why isn't LeBron more popular with young players?

[23 is God]

He doesn't have an aesthetically pleasing game.

He used to up until 2010ish.....then he started to look labored with age

Some of those rookies have good taste. They recognize greatness.

All hail the Flash.


His game was 10 times more fun to watch than that bulldozer in Cleveland.

Not only is his game aesthetically pleasing, but it's also efficient.

You know you're good when an Oklahoma nikka makes a thread about LeBron when a Thunder nikka actually "won" the poll

Besides that how do you figure LeBron isn't popular when he placed 3rd in this poll

 

[Sauce Dab]

Thread means nothing we all know who the best player in the world is and I'm not a Lebron Stan either

Edit: I was watching the GAWD D Wade highlights earlier and left me like

 

[ChriscoDash]

He did lose a lot of fans when he dipped to go to Miami. I mean I don't blame him for what he did its how he did it. hell he should have stayed but that could be a reason why his percentage ain't as high

 

[ChriscoDash]

To say Rudy Gay is even in this list makes this list some shyt.

Kobe is a vet and has earned legendary status.
KD is younger and more in tune with the young dudes.
Lebron is somewhere in the middle.

Results are as expected

Regular fans "don't respect him" yet he has 23.2million followers on Twitter and 12m followers on IG which dwarfs every other player in the league by miles. Only KD is close, and by close I mean less than half at 11mil.
Regular fans "don't respect him" yet every nationally televised LeBron James game out does all other games in the league by miles.
Regular fans "don't respect him" yet he has the second most successful shoe brand behind Jordan.
Regular fans "don't respect him" yet he's almost always the number 1 selling jersey in the league.

You nikkas live in some altered reality when it comes to LBJ.

FWIW, only like 30 or so rookies were polled. So the difference between 1st and 3rd place is like...2 votes. LOL you retards will bite the bait on anything.

 

[FreddyCalhoun]

This years rookies voted Durant and Kobe ahead of him when asked who their favorite player was, something that happened last year as well.

I learned in stats that you only need 30+ participants to extrapolate data from a survey..according to that it wouldn't matter if you surveyed 100, 1000, etc. The distribution would be about the same.

It depends on the "power" (of the test) that you are trying to achieve. Without going into details on that, stats should tell you that 6/30 is not that different from 7/30

Think about when u was young. All you wanted to do was score. Lebron game is more then scoring not saying kd or Kobe game is all about scoring but it's what their best at

You right in that regard, but being 11 years old back when "Nets! Basketball! Action!" was showing on Saturday nights on channel 9, watching Special K dribble, penetrate & dish to Drazen or Coleman was the perfect dessert to a KFC or Popeye's dinner. A whole lotta dudes going to junior high with me in Brooklyn had big time appreciation for his game. Perhaps it's a generational or geographic thing (Brooklyn has major love for PGs who can dish with a touch of flare).

 

[Supercoolmayo]

How come Tim Duncan ain't up there?

 

[USSInsiders]

Ass is flat. THere's a reason why Melo is #1 on the list
