Here is an 18 year old LeBron, showing more fluidity, quickness, dexterity, and possessing far higher ball handling ability than probably any version of Wiggins

Wiggins step back jumper is ridiculous. He can do it whenever he wants on who ever he wants and as he grows and gets better it's going to be equivalent to Jordan's unstoppable fade away jumper. I said he was a "jordanesque" athlete coming out of high school and you see it more and more. And before you guys come here to comment no i'm not saying he is Jordan.

athletically they are way more similar. Jordan was no where near that built as LeBron was when he came in 2003.

I'll be honest Wiggins high school highlights had me like :eek: when I was watching them. His handles are suspect but his jumper is way wetter than I thought. If he can somehow become as intense as Garnett and as aggressive as a young Wade and develop his handles, I think you have an outstanding young player.

There will never be a next Jordan, the league's new finesse outlook since the mid 2000s pretty much ruined the chance of being aesthetically like Jordan. A lot of Jordan moves today aren't needed because the whistle would be blown way before you can do the whole array of moves to cut to the basket like Jordan often did.

On the side note, that Jordan Classic was filled with talent. Anyone know what happened to that PG Erving? He had some really nice passes.

Bron is a power player

Jordan is a finesse type player that doesn't have as much athleticism as bron

Jordan was both a finesse and a power player. Basically the result you would get if you put Kobe and Lebron in a blender.

He probably meant brute strength, which is true

No need to do all these finesse moves to dodge your opponent when you can run into your opponent and make it anyway

Dude, relax. It's pretty well-known that Lebron is simply a superior athlete to Jordan. Having beautiful fluidity, body control and nimbleness, insanely large hands and a one-of-a-kind scoring instinct is Jordan's thing.

But if you put 25 year old Lebron vs 25 year old Jordan in, say, an NFL scouting combine... I mean it won't even be close; Lebron will SMOKE Jordan in every category save for maybe vertical leap (which would be a close one).

Didn't Lebron try to workout with hakeem and it looked terrible? Kobe was smooth tho.
